Elevator protection scene. Interviewee for map
On 18 february, an elevator in kunming city, yunnan province, allegedly collapsed, resulting in the tragic death of a 59-year-old owner. From time to time, elevator safety has rekindled social concerns。
Around 2000, with the rapid development of the market for commodity houses, elevators also became the “first step out of the house, last trip home” transportation facility. Today, some of the elevators are “old age”. According to the national directorate of market supervision, by the end of 2024, our stock of elevators had exceeded 11 million, with some 900,000 old elevators over 15 years old. As a densely populated province, guangdong is using 1. 21 million elevators and 13. 38 million old elevators over 15 years of age。
Stoppages, card-levels, "people at customs" are on the internet and many internet users have reported having experienced an "elevator shock". For the special equipment that is “faced” every day, elevators are related to the safety and convenience of people travelling “up and down”, but few know that small lifts also have many “deep water areas”. And elevator protection is one of them。
According to a survey by nandu journalists, there are problems in the area of elevator protection in the city: there is an imbalance in the “human ratio” of protection workers, some of whom have to protect more than 50 elevators, one of whom has to protect more than 50 elevators; there is a pattern of passing through the card, “to fix” to the industry's sub-rule, and “false protection” occurs
The elephant
Human-to-human-to-unbalance or to protect “water”
The elevator is safe and dependent on “triple, seven-point”. Statistics from the china elevator industry association show that 16 per cent of the factors contributing to the safety of elevators are of manufacturing quality and 24 per cent of installation, while maintenance and use problems are as high as 60 per cent。
“at present, elevators are subject to routine inspection and maintenance of different projects on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis.” in addition to a line elevator branded guangdong regional dealer, mr. Zhou told journalists that there were places where two qualified persons were required to be present for each maintenance。
In many places, including hebei, shenzhen, provision has been made for not more than 30 elevators per maintenance worker per month. However, mr. Chew told journalists that 30 machines per person per month were difficult to achieve in the exercise。
As an example, it was reported that by the end of 2022, there were 8126 elevator protection personnel in shanghai, with 37. 49 elevator protections per person。
“different factors, such as the age ladder, the use of the scene, and the coverage of the protection personnel, affect the `human ratio'.” in an interview with nandu journalist, fan xiao wing, president of the guangzhou elevator industry association, stated that the “human ratio” was designed to prevent the elevator from passing through。
Elevator vives has been on the ground for a long time. Prior to this, according to press reports, on 25 march last, an elevator guard in hangzhou city's villa completed a live check-in and exit and sweep-up of security information and left for less than a minute。
“some of the protections are `watering' across the field, taking photographs, cleaning up dust, filling out forms, and that is done.” in recent years, according to an unnamed industrialist, the use of elevators by management units to reduce the bookkeeping costs of elevator protection has led to the emergence of “resortment” in the industry for low-cost clients, resulting in the daily maintenance of elevators becoming obsolete。
In response, he argued that, although there was no uniform time frame for single elevator protection, a few minutes of “twilight” protection would undoubtedly be passing through. “a ten-year-old residential elevator with a 30-storey operating zone, with normal maintenance taking about 45 minutes in the case of a double-man operation.” van xiaoyoung, for example。
In addition to the “blitz” protection, the phenomenon of “false” “paper man” also happens。
In november 2024, the relevant authorities, during their daily inspections, revealed that there were irregularities in the date of the public notice of a school elevator in the district, which had not been updated for a long time. Using surveillance video from the elevator, the law enforcement officers confirmed that elevator protection had not arranged for maintenance work to be performed on the site on the day of the recorded protection date. In addition, the company falsely completed the elevator maintenance log sheet, the last one month before the date of the incident. Previously, the regulations on safety in the use of elevators in guangdong province had provided for maintenance of elevators at least every 15 days, confirmed by the signature of the user manager。
"even if we go to the scene, there's plenty of pussy." the above-mentioned industry sources have told the nandu journalists that, in general, the protection of an elevator requires two protection officers to be present at the same time, but that some protection workers will upload the two “peer-to-peer” scenarios on the platform in the form of “paper people” to avoid regulation. Previously, the multi-terrestrial market regulators had disclosed that the “card-playing” elevator had been secured, and that the guards had taken a picture in the elevator with a false card。
Tragedy
A low-priced customer has given birth to a replacement
In recent years, as the elevators market has contracted, the protection business has become an entry point for elevator manufacturers, distributors and third-party protection units to intervene in the stock market。
Elevator protection is understood to be usually in three modes: packing, half-packing and full-packing. The lump sum, i. E., wip, is responsible only for maintenance work and all spare parts and major repairs are to be borne by the client; the half-pack, i. E., the wip is responsible for fixed maintenance costs, and the contract includes the replacement of spare parts by the elevator company free of charge and outside the range of a separate offer; and the full package, the wip is responsible for all maintenance costs, including all consumables and spare parts replacement. “to replace”, mostly in the clean-up mode. Pang xiaorong said that in the case of the same client, the clearing model is generally lower. “in the case of dwellings, guangzhou has an average of about $500 a month for a single ladder”. At the same time, however, he stated that it was normal for some protection units to receive their clients at lower prices。
For this reason, journalists make random calls to various elevator protection units in guangzhou on the grounds that existing protection services have expired. The results show that under the clean-up model, the cost of protection for multiple quotes per one-month range from $200 to $300. Of this amount, the annual cost of protection for a single-supplier unit was $3,200 (approximately $260 per month) and the list of protection items was given。
In this connection, mr. Chew believed that some of the well below-cost safeguard offer services tended to be an ambush for “replacement”. In his view, “replacement” is actually “drain” in preventive inspections and “work” in consumer maintenance. In the early hours of elevator service, the head of the general elevator engineering department stated that the “draining” of the uber may not have had a significant impact on the flight experience, but that these difficult-to-detect “small diseases” accumulated over time and became “grave diseases”。
“how can spare parts be much more profitable with oil?” according to the above-mentioned industry, spare parts are a profit point if they are not profitable. Previously, in an interview with the media, the head of an elevator protection company in shanghai stated that it would be more profitable for the security personnel to sell spare parts, which were usually quoted at about twice the original price。
Nandu journalists have looked at various recruitments for apps and have found that the words “parts” and “parts” and “parts sales” appear frequently in the recruitment information for some elevator protections. “an elevator guard, calculated at $200 per elevator, 30 per month, and the company's operating costs, he does not do much, doesn't depend on accessories, he may not even make a living!” mr. Zhou wrote to the press about this。
In addition, mr. Lee, a property manager who has worked in various districts of guangzhou, also revealed to journalists that the phenomenon of “resortment” often exists in old and low-cost neighbourhoods. “the cost of basic protection is significantly higher than the new elevator, mainly because the elevators are generally older in the old sector. In small areas where property costs are lower, however, because of the cost constraints, only the most basic `package' services are often selected, followed by replacement of spare parts at additional cost on demand.”
Way out
Standard “evolution”, or lift relief topic
How can the elevator be repaired? How can the above-mentioned dilemma be resolved? The deliberate adjustment of the existing norms has given impetus to the development of the elevator protection industry — the elevator is on demand and on schedule. In may last year, the directorate-general for the supervision of national markets sought external advice on the regulations for the inspection of the safety of special equipment (revised). In the revised article 31, the words “the elevator shall conduct clean, lubricants, adjustments and inspections at least every 15 days” were deleted and replaced by the words “the elevator shall perform regular maintenance such as cleaning, lubricants, adjustments, monitoring and inspection in accordance with safety technical requirements”。
“only by the strength of the ladder, hospitals, malls, etc. Are far removed from ordinary homes, even private ones.” in fan xiaoying's view, the need for protection of elevators varies from one application to another. In his view, a smooth landing of the new rules would mark a shift in the elevator protection model from a “fixed cycle” to a “demand-based” one, which would provide new ideas for addressing elevator protection。
The head of the department of wide-day elevator operations, for his part, considered that the adjustment to the existing regulations was to replace the “one size fits all” with dynamic regulation, both to secure the safety floor and to avoid additional financial burdens on the use of elevators by old neighbourhoods and small and medium-sized enterprises。
In response, mr. Chew, who has been in contact with the elevator for more than 20 years, believes that “on demand” is in fact “exact”. He predicted that the new rules would reduce the waste of resources in at least two ways. “on the one hand, protection on the basis of need will make it more accurate and efficient, reducing `walk-through' protection, which is to save the human resources of the unit; on the other hand, protection on the basis of need will actually reduce the burden on owners and the property itself.”
How, then, should the “needs” of protection be determined?
“`need' is the result of precision surveillance and it is objective.” the head of the department of wide-geek elevator operations said that, beginning around 2010, a number of manufacturers had begun to equip each exit elevator with a remote surveillance system to monitor the performance of each elevator through the elevator remote monitoring system, which could be handled in a timely manner and ensure its safe operation in the event of anomalies。
When it comes to the early entry of some old sector elevators without intelligent monitoring, fan said that old elevators without a remote surveillance system could also be installed. “for example, around the year 2000, only large brands are chosen for dwellings that are conditional on the use of elevators, which are usually well-equipped and technologically advanced and produce longer lifts.”
