Maple leaves
There are only two elevators running
Journalist experience: at 2. 30 p. M., the chinese businessman arrived in the maple region of high new road, an old district of high new road. The reporter first walked into building 35 and only one of the two elevators was running, and several emergency buttons were pressed during the downing, with only a short bell, which was not answered. Two elevators were also operated on the side of building 37, and no response was received by pressing the emergency button. Both elevators were marked with “elevator clearance” signs and emergency rescue and service calls。
According to the owner: an old resident of building 37 said that the elevator that stopped was an old elevator and used for more than 10 years. The other elevator was replaced six months ago. Old elevators had more problems than usual, pressing the floor and going to the roof to “swam”。
Property statement: at around 4 p. M. Yesterday, two elevator emergency buttons were not answered. According to one staff member on duty, only one of the four elevators in buildings 35 and 37 was an old elevator, and the sector elevators were maintained by different protection companies, which were asked for details. Protection staff: one of the wip staff stated that the elevators in buildings 35 and 45 were maintained by them. Of the two elevators in building 35, one previously malfunctioned was the elevator in 2008, which was cleared and is undergoing commissioning. Another elevator in use was in 2012. The failure of the five parties to communicate was reported to the property and the spare parts needed to be replaced, which would be repaired as soon as prices were determined. If a person is trapped after repair, the doorman's surveillance room will receive the information in the first place by pressing the emergency button。
Zhang sung-lung, a journalist from the chinese commercial news
Can an old neighborhood get 300,000 for a major repair fund
In recent days, the chinese journal of commerce has continued to focus on elevator security, with older elevators becoming a focus of reader complaints。
So, who fixes the old elevator? Who pays for it? Is there a lifetime? What are the challenges of renewal
Electrical ageing, mechanical wear and tear, frequent failure
The director of an elevator company said that the ageing of spare parts would occur after any machine had been in use for a certain period of time, and that old elevators were prone to problems such as the ageing of electrical components, the wear of mechanical components, the failure of keys, etc., which caused frequent malfunctions and caused concern among users。
In addition to the high failure rate of ageing spare parts, old elevators also suffer from relative underdevelopment in production techniques, while national elevator standards are being refined and updated. According to a senior industrial practitioner, standards and technology are constantly being updated, some of the old elevators have been shut down and some of the old elevators have been out of service for long periods of time following failure because of difficulties in finding suitable accessories by maintenance staff。
There's no mandatory end-of-life period for elevators in the country
The head of an elevator company said that there was currently no state regulation on the mandatory end-of-life period for elevators. This is due to controversy. Many consider it unscientific to use only the number of years of service to determine the end-of-life criteria for elevators. He had evaluated the old elevator used by a unit on xian luang road, although it had been in use for almost 20 years, since the unit had more than 30 employees and the rate of use was lower, and it had been agreed that it could continue to be used as long as security was in place. However, in some residential areas, elevators are used very frequently and have a very high failure rate, which, combined with human destruction and incorrect use, has made possible the use of elevators for only 10 years, which is nearing the end of life。
According to the security staff of an elevator company, elevators are in fact similar to cars, with useful life varying according to individual quality, usage and management protection conditions, and good can be used for decades, but generally up to or around 15 years requires major repairs or modifications。
Sean's old elevators are concentrated in the old neighborhood
So, how's the old sian elevator? In the case of the old elevators, which are concentrated in the high development areas, a director of the higher and new substation of the xian city quality monitoring service described the fact that there are currently more than 5,500 different elevators in the high zone and that the upgrading of the old elevators has already attracted the attention of the relevant departments. The old elevators have suffered from many failures and complaints, and from 2005 to the present, they have upgraded almost 30 old elevators in the bailiwick, mainly residential elevators. In the case of old elevators with 15 or more years of service, they asked specialists at the special equipment testing and inspection institute to assess and identify those that needed to be upgraded. Through policy advocacy, they contacted property companies and small sector owners to convene a conference of owners and recommended that owners use the major repair fund to complete the renovation。
The large funding gap for the upgrading of older elevators is currently the biggest challenge. According to industry sources, the old elevators used in the sian residence are mainly in the old commercial subdivisions and in the family homes of some old units. Some of these districts do not have major maintenance funds, and a significant number of owners also rent houses and do not live in them, and are therefore not active in the renovation of elevators. Moreover, the cost of upgrading the old elevators is not prohibitive, and according to the current brand price of elevators in the city of xi'an, an upgrade of an elevator on the 20th floor of a general residential building would cost about 300,000 or, in the case of small companies, about 230,000. Such a large amount of money is indeed unbearable for some old neighbourhoods。
Elevator proposed for more than 15 years
In march 2012, during the elevator safety week, which was launched in the city of sian, the responsible officials indicated that a technical assessment of the old elevators, which had been working for more than 15 years, would be conducted to determine whether they were retrofitted, overhauled or directly scrapped, but that the assessment methodology was still under study。
According to the current regulations in the city of sian, the results of the assessment of the old elevator will determine where the old elevator should go. But who should bear the burden of the assessment and how should the cost of the assessment be accounted for
The head of an elevator company stated that he had been invited to assess an old elevator at a unit and that, in order to ensure safety, they had advised the unit to change the elevator. However, for the cost of upgrading the elevators, the unit's financial system requires reporting and approval, as well as an “official” assessment report, which, when they contacted the testing department to test it, was calculated with an assessment fee of $6,000。
Who's gonna take the elevator
Should the assessment of old elevators be carried out by the competent department or by civil society? One practitioner said that in some municipalities, evaluations were introduced into third-party institutions, which then tendered, produced legally valid evaluation reports and took responsibility for the results。
In february of this year, the chinese merchant newspaper reported that the xi'an city congress of the city of xi'an had recommended that civilian elevators should be abolished by force. Gui cai said that the “sick running” of older elevators increased the probability of elevator accidents and that there were safety risks. The old elevators in the city of sian are now concentrated in some old high-level districts, many of which are still charged for maintenance of the elevators, while some of the companies are based on the principle that “the better, the better, the better,” and the lower prices, thus creating maintenance difficulties, which are sufficient for “refuelling ash”。
It's recommended that the failure rate be monitored with big data
With regard to the safe operation control centre of the 96333 elevator, which will be opened by the xian city administration of quality, industry sources have indicated that this platform, if well-functioning and improved, will provide strong security for elevators in xian city. The platform is currently completing the data entry process, which will design an identification code for each elevator, implement technical positioning and, if the elevator fails, the staff member will contact the elevator's security unit as soon as he or she receives a distress signal, and, if this is not possible, initiate a secondary emergency response and urgently mobilize the nearest security unit to visit. In the event of an accident involving a person in distress, the protection unit is still unable to resolve the problem and will contact 119 for assistance。
Industry suggests that, if mandatory end-of-life years cannot be established, the frequency of use and failure rates of elevators can be monitored through large data platforms, timely assessment and validation of the use of high frequency and failure rates of elevators, and recommendations for upgrading and upgrading to ensure the safe operation of elevators。
Beijing
Make it clear that the age of the old elevator is 15 years
Among the elevators in use throughout the country, older elevators are concentrated in the cities of beijing, shanghai and guangzhou. As a result, the upgrading of the old elevators in these cities has also begun long ago. In 2001, in the regulations for the management of the end-of-air of the beijing city residential elevator, the criteria for the end-of-life of elevators were specified, i. E., if the beijing city building had only one elevator and had been in use for 15 years, if the state had ordered that production should stop and had been in operation for more than 15 years, and if the equipment had been overhauled three times, had serious defects and other basic conditions for safe operation, it was “end-of-life elevators”. The testing cycle has been reduced to six months for elevators that have reached the end of their useful life but have been technically certified by elevator testing agencies as having reliable quality and continued serviceability. This has not only changed the unsupported situation with regard to the scrapped parts of the elevator, but has also contributed significantly to the process of upgrading the old elevator in beijing。
In recent days, it has been reported that in order to eliminate the danger of elevator accidents, the city of beijing will conduct a year-long elevator safety check and conduct a safety assessment of 3956 high-risk elevators throughout the city. Of these, the old residential elevators, which are poorly owned and underfunded, will be taken over by the territorial government。
Shenzhen
The government has subsidies for the upgrading of elevators in the subdistrict
It is understood that on 1 january 2013, the renovation management scheme (temporary) for old elevators in lake lo, shenzhen city was implemented. The principle of the retrofitting of the old elevators in the area is “government encouragement, user-driven”。
The district government has arranged support funds for the renovation of old elevators. The elevators need to be fully replaced, with more than 70 per cent of the funds for special maintenance of the property sector in accordance with current standards, up to 30 per cent of the cost of upgrading the elevator (excluding the cost of the elevator decoration) and up to $200,000 per elevator; and up to 60 per cent of the cost of special maintenance of the elevator in accordance with current standards, up to 40 per cent of the cost of upgrading the elevator (excluding the cost of the elevator decoration) and up to $100,000 per elevator。
