ELEVATOR TRACTION MACHINE INSTALLATION APPARATUS AND ELEVATOR TRACTION MACHINE INSTALLATION METHOD

An elevator traction machine installation apparatus and an elevator traction machine installation method are disclosed. The elevator traction machine installation apparatus comprises: a lifting mechanism having a base portion and a load-bearing portion adapted to place an elevator traction machine, wherein the base and load-bearing portions are connected and can rise and lower relative to each other in a longitudinal direction of an elevator hoistway; and a support mechanism configured to be detachably connected with the lifting mechanism and a base for installation of a machine-room-less elevator traction machine in the elevator hoistway to support the lifting mechanism and the elevator traction machine, and having at least two positions at which the base portion is secured, wherein a first position is lower than a second position in the longitudinal direction, and the load-bearing portion is lifted relative to the base portion after the base portion is secured at the first position, and continues to be lifted relative to the base portion after the base portion is adjusted and secured at the second position, until the load-bearing portion is substantially flush with an elevator traction machine installation position on the base in the longitudinal direction, to allow the elevator traction machine to be moved from the load-bearing portion to the elevator traction machine installation position.
