A recent elevator accident in a villa area is a sigh of relief. An 87-year-old man died in an accident while riding the elevator in his villa. According to the family's account, the tragedy occurred when the old man was about to go downstairs. However, before the elevator car could reach the command floor, the door suddenly opened, causing the old man to fall into the air and die.
The families are deeply saddened and puzzled by this tragic accident. They strongly questioned the safety of the elevator and suspected that the accident was related to the failure of the elevator itself. It is understood that this is an elevator located in a private villa and is only used for the daily ride of the family member. However, it is regrettable that such home elevators are not included in the scope of special equipment.
Market supervision pointed out that according to the current regulations, only those elevators provided to the public are regarded as special equipment and are subject to strict supervision and inspection. The elevators used by individual households do not belong to the category of special equipment, and the supervision is relatively weak. This also means that the safety of such elevators may be overlooked or not given enough attention.
However, this tragic incident has once again sparked a discussion about the safety and regulation of home elevators. In the face of the trend of more and more high-rise residential buildings and self-built villas choosing to install elevators, should the relevant departments carry out stricter supervision of home elevators? This is a question worth pondering.
For the safety of personal home elevators, some experts suggest strengthening the formulation and improvement of relevant laws and regulations, and clarifying responsibilities and obligations. At the same time, building construction and equipment installation units should also strengthen technical training and quality management to ensure that the design, installation and daily maintenance of elevators are compliant, safe and reliable.
In addition, in the process of using the home elevator, family members also need to enhance safety awareness, and regularly check the operation status of the elevator, and find problems for timely repair and maintenance. For families of the elderly, special attention should be paid to their riding safety, and necessary assistance and care should be provided.
This tragic incident reminds us once again that home elevator safety cannot be ignored. Whether it is the market supervision department or individual families, they should attach great importance to this issue to ensure that everyone can be safely guaranteed when using the elevator. It is hoped that through the exposure of this accident and the attention of public opinion, more people can pay attention to it and urge relevant departments to strengthen the supervision and protection of home elevator safety.
