Paternoster Lift - Through the Basement & Over the Top

  • Trying to circle through a vintage Paternoster lift / elevator. What happens if you go through the basement and over the top? Do you go through the center of Earth to China? Do you fly through the roof? No, you just turn over and you have to beware of the wheel.
    Paternosters are deadly, let's ban them.... but why don't we also ban all the deadly cars, cigarettes, guns, big dogs, junk food, knives, airplanes, swimming pools ... ? A standard elevator kills you when it fails. A paternoster only kills you when YOU fail :).

      It's not more dangerous than normal elevators. Also it is really practical to prevent long qeues, if a big amount of people needs to be transportet quickly.

    I worked in the I.G. Farben building (Abrams building) in Frankfurt Germany for over 7 years in the 80s and 90s. There were 6 paternosters in the building total and several elevators from the same era. Usually, there were one or two paternosters out of order at any one time. The building had a German maintenance crew that worked endlessly on the building. The paternosters were.... safe'ish and we used them daily, climbing on two or three at a time to travel between the floors. However, there were deaths while I was stationed in V Corps. People would get hurt even killed by freaking out and trying to climb out at the bottom and top rotation points. The individual cars move faster than they seem, and they "rattle" back and forth horizontally. Anyone that thinks these are less maintenance than elevators is saddly mistaken.

Most of the paternoster are shut down now. Inside of the library however, they are still on duty from Monday to Friday, but only during daytime. It is kind of fancy and a little scary to use, but I like them :)

    The urban myth about pater noster elevator was that the cabin was gonna flip over when reached the top/bottom. My grandpa, when he was a kid, has been told this legend, everybody just believed it. But he and his friend tried it anyway. They were prepared to be flipped over, but it didn't happen. The morale of the story is that we should always test the truthfulness of "guaranteed" facts people (or internet) tell us and not only blindly believe everything. P.S. My grandpa became an air-fighter pilot, got master degree and was generally sensible person.

    The only thing "dangerous" about going around the top or bottom is that you might just pick the moment the caretaker decides to switch the paternoster off for the holidays...
    I once worked in an office building with a primitive paternoster with unlit cabins - so whenever I needed a few seconds of total darkness to check the keypad lighting settings of my mobile phone, I took a paternoster cabin through the bottom - however weak any light was, you could see it in there...

      Many of us were similarly unaware. It looks like the car is supported only at the top left corner, unless there's another chain loop opposite the opening (behind us). Why did they not put the support in the middle? What keeps the car vertical in between the areas of intended use? Very cool old tech.

    • @mkrazor1998
      @mkrazor1998 6 лет назад +128

      They are cool but they are very slow and therefore it's faster to take the stairs and another problem is that not many people can travel at the same time. For instance if 10 people are at ground level and want to get to the third floor they all have to wait and get on the elevator one or two at a time. So if there are many people a conventional elevator is faster I believe, but if there are not so many people who want to travel at the same time a paternoster is great for people who can walk. I don't think a person in a wheelchair would agree
