I-elevator yempahla lelinye igama elithi aikhetshi yempahla, luhlobo lweelevator eyenzelwe ngokukodwa ukuthutha iimpahla, kunokuba abantu.Izinyusi zokuthwala iimpahla ziqhele ukusetyenziswa kwizakhiwo zoshishino kunye nezorhwebo, ezifana neendawo zokugcina iimpahla kunye namaziko okuhambisa iimpahla, ukuhambisa iimpahla phakathi kwemigangatho eyahlukeneyo.Ngokwesiqhelo zinkulu kwaye zakhiwe ngokurhabaxa ngaphezulu kunezinyusi zabakhweli, kwaye zinokuba neempawu ezifana nomgangatho ongatyibilikiyo kunye neendonga eziqinisiweyo ukuthwala imithwalo enzima.

Izinyusi zemithwalo ziqhele ukusetyenziswa kwizakhiwo zoshishino kunye nezorhwebo, ezifana neendawo zokugcina iimpahla kunye namaziko okusasaza, ukuhambisa iimpahla phakathi kwemigangatho eyahlukeneyo.Zingaphinda zisetyenziswe kwizakhiwo zokuhlala, ezifana nezakhiwo zokuhlala, ukuthutha igrosari kunye nezinye izinto ukusuka kumgangatho ophantsi ukuya kwimigangatho ephezulu.

Izinyusi zemithwalo zikholisa ukuba nephaneli yokulawula elula yokusebenzisa ilifti, kwaye ezinye iimodeli zinokuba neempawu ezongezelelweyo ezifana nesikali esakhelwe ngaphakathi sokulinganisa iimpahla ezithuthwayo.Basenokuba nenkqubo yokulayisha ngesandla okanye ezenzekelayo, ngokuxhomekeke kwiimfuno ezithile zesakhiwo.

Umahluko omkhulu phakathi kwe-elevator yempahla kunye ne-elevator yabahambi yinjongo eyilelwe yona.I-elevator yemithwalo yenzelwe ngokukhethekileyo ukuthutha iimpahla, njengebhokisi, iikhreyithi kunye neepalethi, ngelixa i-elevator yabahambi yenzelwe ukuthutha abantu.

Kukho iiyantlukwano ezimbalwa eziphambili kuyilo kunye neempawu zezinyusi zempahla kunye nezinyusi zabakhweli:

Ubungakanani: Izinyusi zomthwalo zidla ngokuba nkulu kunezinyusi zabakhweli, njengoko zifuna ukuthwala imithwalo emikhulu nenzima.

Ulwakhiwo: Izinyusi zokuthwala imithwalo zihlala zakhiwe ngendlela erhabaxa ngakumbi kunezinyusi zabakhweli, ezineendonga eziqinisiweyo kunye nomgangatho ongatyibilikiyo ukujongana nobunzima beempahla ezithuthwayo.

Ulawulo: Izinyusi zomthwalo zikholisa ukuba nephaneli yokulawula elula yokusebenzisa ilifti, ngelixa izinyusi zabahambi zinokuba nolawulo oluphezulu kunye neempawu zokhuseleko.

Umthamo womthwalo: Izinyusi zomthwalo ngokubanzi zinomthamo ophezulu womthwalo kunezinyusi zabakhweli, njengoko kufuneka zikwazi ukumelana nobunzima beempahla ezithuthwayo.

Ukusetyenziswa: Izinyusi zokuthwala imithwalo zidla ngokusetyenziswa kwimizi-mveliso nakwizakhiwo zorhwebo, ngelixa izinyusi zabakhweli zisetyenziswa kuluhlu olubanzi lwezakhiwo, kubandakanywa iindawo zokuhlala, zorhwebo, kunye nezakhiwo zikawonke-wonke.
