4 WORKING PRINCIPLES
The Quasar governor is of a centrifugal type. It may operate either going up or down or only going down according
to the governor model.
The governor in the Quasar SV assembly is of the “on-board” type. This means that the governor travels along with
the car and the rope remains static (unlike a conventional governor).
The rope, atta
ched to the pit’s ceiling and floor, goes through the governor along its pulleys’ grooves. This way, the
rope makes the pulley rotate and when the car reaches tripping speed, the main pulley will rotate until the speed
allows the centrifugal system to lock on the locking part. This governor locking will cause the safety gear to operate,
thus stopping the car movement. This rope is in an open circuit, both ends being tensed by a spring-tensioning
device.
A diagram of the unit assembly is displayed below.
