General Parameters of Sightseeing Elevators
Q: What is a sightseeing elevator?
A: A sightseeing elevator is equipped with transparent car walls and shaft, allowing passengers to enjoy the external scenery during operation.
Q: Is the observation elevator safe?
A: It is extremely safe. A sightseeing elevator is not a regular elevator with glass simply attached; instead, it has extra reinforcement for its transparent structure:
- The car walls and shaft are made of laminated tempered glass (similar to a car's front windshield). Even if it cracks under strong impact, the fragments will stick together without splashing, and it can withstand several times the conventional impact force.
- Like all high-standard elevators, FUJIEPS sightseeing elevators are equipped with multiple steel wire ropes, safety gears (which emergency brake like a caliper in case of overspeed) and bottom buffers.
- All glass has passed fire resistance tests. If passengers are trapped, the fully transparent structure can alleviate the sense of oppression from a confined space, and make it easier for rescuers to observe the internal situation from the outside to carry out rescue work.
Q: What are the different types of panoramic elevators?
A: According to the installation method and structure, glass elevators are mainly divided into the following three types:
- Panoramic sightseeing elevator: The car wall and shaft wall are fully transparent, usually mounted on the exterior of the building. It has a nearly 360° field of view and is mostly used in landmark buildings or high-end commercial complexes.
- Indoor atrium elevator: Installed in the internal atrium of a building, usually only 1-2 sides facing the interior use glass, and the rest are metal structures. It is mainly used to solve indoor vertical transportation while adding a dynamic sense to the building.
- Residential glass elevator: Designed specifically for private residences, it is small in size and slow in speed. It usually adopts an integrated structure of glass shaft + glass car, with flexible installation. It can be placed in the center or corner of a house, taking into account both lighting and home aesthetics.
Among them, residential glass elevators usually have more lenient requirements for pit depth and top floor height than commercial elevators.
Q: Can observation elevators be custom-designed?
A: Yes, FUJIEPS elevators can be tailor-made according to users' preferences to create exclusive artworks.
Q: What are the advantages of a panoramic elevator?
A: A full-view glass elevator is equipped with an extra-large viewing surface, which is spacious and bright. It extends the narrow elevator space and creates a better viewing experience for users.
Q: What methods are available to ensure privacy for glass elevators in hotels?
A: The privacy design of sightseeing elevators essentially balances transparent views and privacy protection, and there are three main methods:
1. Smart glass (the most direct method): When powered on, the glass is transparent for sightseeing; when powered off, it turns frosted, achieving a "one-click sunshade" effect. This switching is usually controlled by buttons inside the car or a card swipe system, suitable for high-end hotels or private residences.
2. Structural layout: During the architectural planning stage, the elevator shaft is placed at the building's corner or the recessed surface of the atrium to realize line-of-sight dislocation.
3. Physical shielding: Install semi-transparent film, gradient silk screen, or metal perforated plates on the inner side of the glass curtain wall. From the inside, the view remains clear; from the outside, the interior is hard to see due to light refraction, balancing lighting and privacy. For projects with high requirements, electric roller shutters are also used.
