Abstract

An elevator brake can comprise a brake shoe with a substantially curved shape, the brake shoe being rotatable in a brake shoe support. The brake shoe support is mounted in a brake housing and can be linearly displaced between a readiness setting and an engagement setting. The brake can be actuated by an actuator. The actuator can comprise a brake store for acting on the brake through a connecting point to bring the brake into its engaged setting. A force store in the actuator can be held electromagnetically, and a resetting device enables resetting of the force store and of the actuator into the operating position.

First claim

I claim:

1. An elevator cage brake for braking on a guide rail comprising:
a brake housing;
a brake shoe having a first sub-region and a second sub-region; and
a brake shoe support having a bearing axle on which the brake shoe is arranged, wherein the first sub-region is rotatable about the bearing axle, and wherein the second sub-region is longitudinally and transversely displaceable relative to the bearing axle, the brake shoe support being mounted in the brake housing for d…
