FIELD OF INVENTION

Embodiments of a present disclosure relate to guide rails of a pneumatic vacuum elevator, and more particularly to a structure for a guide pillar system of the pneumatic vacuum elevator.

BACKGROUND

An elevator is a platform or compartment contained in a shaft that is used to raise and lower persons or objects to various levels. Hydraulic elevators, traction elevators, machine-room-less elevators, vacuum pneumatic elevators, shaftless elevators, and others are types of elevators. Various elevators, in general, operate according to different principles. Also, conventionally, different elevators possess different structures for guide rails.

The pneumatic vacuum elevator is one of the many forms of elevators that utilizes air pressure to move a cabin inside a corridor or tubular cylinder that uses air as a working fluid on the cabin's limits. Pneumatic vacuum elevators are commonly employed in countervailing weights to allow the cabin to go up and down between different levels or floors at different heights within the vertical passageways of office buildings, hospitals, industries, and other structures.

Pneumatic vacuum elevators are also provided with the guide rails. However, because the construction of such guide rails is complex, the production process is both hard and time-consuming. Furthermore, due to the intricacy of the structure, such guide rails need extensive maintenance, resulting in a significant maintenance expense. Moreover, such guide rails are heavy, adding weight to the pneumatic vacuum elevators and complicating the installation procedure.

Hence, there is a need for an improved structure for a guide pillar system of a pneumatic vacuum elevator which addresses the aforementioned issues.
