Lantern
A light, usually over the entrance to an elevator on each floor of a multistorey building that signals the approach of the elevator.
Annunciator
A signalling apparatus in an elevator car or at a landing that displays a
visual indication of floor landings
Call Button
A push button for requesting an elevator.
Door Interlock
A safety device for preventing the operation of an elevator car unless the
hoist way door is locked in the closed position.
Door Contact
A safety device for preventing the operation of an elevator car unless its
door or gate is fully closed
Car
a cage of light metal supported on a structural frame, the top member
of which the cables, that carry the car, are fastened.
Cables
are the means for lifting or lowering the car, usually 3 to 8 cables
placed in parallel fastened to top of car by cable sockets passing over a
motor driven cylindrical sheave to the counterweights.
Counterweights
these are rectangular blocks of cast iron stacked in one frame which is
fastened to the opposite ends of the cables to which the car is fastened.
Guide Rails
are vertical tracks that guide the car and the counterweights.
Elevator Machine
turns the sheave that lifts and lowers the car.
Controls
a combination of push buttons, contacts, relays, and
devices, operated manually or automatically to initiate
door opening, starting acceleration, retardation, levelling
and stopping of the car.

Truss
a welded steel frame which supports the moving
stairway equipment. It comes in 3 sections: the
middle straight section maybe of any desired
length to provide rises of different heights.
Tracks
are steel angles attached to the truss on which
the step rollers are guided thus controlling the
motion of the steps.
Parts of an Escalator
Controller
consists of contactors, relays and a
circuit breaker. Usually located near
the drive machine, an emergency
stop button wired to the controller
and placed in or near the escalator,
will stop the drive machine and
apply the brake. Key operated
control switches, at the top and
bottom newels, will start, stop, and
reverse the direction of travel of the
stairway.

Common Application
While escalators are used to transport people vertically, electric walks are used
to transport people horizontally (or semi-horizontally) at any inclination from 0
deg. to 15 deg.

Types of Walkalators
Automated Inclined
Walkways
Any of various forms of mass
transit, as moving sidewalks or
automated driverless vehicles, used
for shuttling people from one space
to another in an inclined surface.
Moving Walkways
A power-driven, continuously
moving surface, similar to a
conveyor belt, used for carrying
pedestrians horizontally or along
very low inclines.

Air Motion
air velocity should average 4.57 to 7.6 meters per min measured 36 above
the floor.
Air Supply

rooms where smoking is not allowed
25 cu.ft. to 40 cu.ft. of air per minute per person allowed in rooms where
smoking is permitted.
