6、al vibration is ens of the main problems affecting ride comfort in elevators. There are many reasons contributing to the horizontal vibrations of elevators, such as the irregularity of the guide rails, the abnormity of the guide rollers, the running speed of elevators, the offset load of passengers,
7、 the wind buffeting, etc. Research indicates that these horizontal vibrations are mainly generated by the irregularity of the guide rails1 and are in proportion to the running speed of elevators23 To meet the need of high and super-high buildings, elevator speed is now becoming higher and higher, wh
8、ich results in serious horizontal vibrations. Suppression method of horizontal vibrations is necessary for high-speed elevator. The conventional horizontal vibration reduction techniques include structure changes and passive guide roller system using stiff spring. These passive suppression methods n
9、eed no power supply and have the advantages of simple structure, low price and high reliability and can work well when the elevator speed is low. But they cannot do with the increasing elevator speed because of such disadvantages as limited frequency band width and low working force. Active vibratio
10、n reduction techniques can flexibly cope with the new situations and have good effects and have been used widely. Accordingly, studies on the active suppression method of horizontal vibrations for high-speed elevators have been advanced. Now Mitsubishi Co. and others have already developed their act

Accordingly, we propose in this paper a new type of active guide roller system based on hydraulic actuator which can reduce the horizon

And the fuzzy logic controller with preview compensation is designed to control the active guide system
13、. Last, computer simulation and experimental tests are performed to verify the effectiveness of the hydraulic device and the controller.1 ACTIVE CONTROL MODEL OF HORIZONTAL VIBRATIONS FOR ELEVATOR CAGEThe elevator system is a kind of complex multi-body structure.

The unevenness of the guide rails is transmitted to the elevator cage through the guide roller system and brings about horizontal vibrations of the elevator. This problem can be overcome
