Innovate and upgrade the elevator industry
Since July this year, the implementation of the "Elevator Manufacturing and Installation Safety Code" national standard No. 1 amendment, put forward more stringent safety requirements for elevators, to maximize the protection of users' elevator safety.
In this year's innovation sharing pool, Hitachi elevator for the new industry norms, in addition to increasing the car accidental movement protection function, the standard dual protection function, in the hall door is not locked and the car door is not closed, can effectively avoid the car accidental movement caused by personal injury. At the same time, Hitachi has upgraded the door engine system of all ladder types, which can effectively prevent the accident of falling down the well caused by people inside the car opening the door outside the specified unlocking area. The strength of Hitachi's new layer door is more than 1 times higher than the national standard requirements, which can effectively avoid the risk of "hitting the hall door and causing the door to fall off". Hitachi is further improving the safety and reliability of its elevators by standardizing them with more stringent safety protection.
China's current consumption structure is undergoing profound changes. Consumption upgrading will lead the rapid growth of related industries, infrastructure and public services, and expand new space for future development. This will accelerate the development of modern service industry and high-end manufacturing, form new core competitiveness, and promote further development of the elevator industry. More abundant consumption demand is increasing, which in turn will promote the upgrading of the elevator industry.
Jia Yuhui, general manager and chief engineer of Hitachi Elevator Technology Research and Development headquarters, said that China's current consumption structure is undergoing profound changes, and consumer demand is increasingly rich.
