    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elevator

    Some types of residential elevators do not use a traditional elevator shaft, machine room, and elevator hoistway. This allows an elevator to be installed where a traditional elevator may not fit, and simplifies installation. The ASME board first approved machine-room-less systems in a revision of the ASME A17.1 in 2007.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyscraper_design_and...

    The elevators in a skyscraper are not simply a necessary utility like running water and electricity, but are in fact closely related to the design of the whole structure. A taller building requires more elevators to service the additional floors, but the elevator shafts consume valuable floor space.

  7. Inclined elevator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclined_elevator

    Inclined elevator design is based on the same basic technology as conventional, vertical elevator. [6] In general standard elevator equipment can be adapted for systems with an inclines up 10 ° from vertical, while an incline with more than 20° from vertical will require some additional adaptation.

  8. Dumbwaiter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumbwaiter

    A simple dumbwaiter is a movable frame in a shaft, dropped by a rope on a pulley, guided by rails; most dumbwaiters have a shaft, cart, and capacity smaller than those of passenger elevators, usually 45 to 450 kg (100 to 992 lbs.) [2] Before electric motors were added in the 1920s, dumbwaiters were controlled manually by ropes on pulleys. [1]
