Abstract
An elevator, particularly a friction driven elevator, with a cage guided in an elevator shaft and with a driving motor with associated control cabinet. According to the invention, in case of need and to provide access to the driving motor and/or control cabinet, a closed power unit space is provided which can be temporarily set up in the elevator shaft, whereby the operation of the cage in both portions of the elevator shaft which are situated below or above the temporarily set up power unit space remains unaffected. In the region of the power unit disposed in the shaft, the control cabinet is disposed in the shaft alongside the path on which the cage travels and there is provided at least one plate which, in order to form a negotiable platform and/or a protective roof, can be moved into a horizontal position associated with the control cabinet. Advantageously, in normal operation of the elevator, the plate serves as a cover for the control cabinet and is rotatably articulated on the control cabinet.
