Ride on a Salt Mine Hoist 650 feet underground and Machine Room Visit. Elevator to the underworld
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 тра 2018
- (5-22-18) Scott arranged a machine room visit to this salt mine hoist in Hutchinson. We first take a ride on this interesting double decker hoist. Notice how there is no controls inside the elevator. It also does not have a standard elevator call system. It has to be sent from the other level. After, we check out the machine that runs this hoist. Edited by stl elevators aka Jason

Love the London Underground 'Mind The Gap' roundel!!
..
Wow that was amazing. This ran a lot faster than I would have expected for a winding drum.
It was very fast.
@@DieselDucy650 foot it's super tall.
*_EPIC!_* This thing is A ROCKET, Looks so fun to ride :D I also like the chime when its 50ft away xD
Is it super fun to ride, the pressure change is no joke
@@ThePbatemon yeah!
SOOO FAST LIKE A ROCKET ELEVATOR
Hi, Im on pension now. I'm from South Africa, and I was a Winding Engine Driver for 36 years. Loved it.
AWESOME!
You just filmed the coolest thing ever!
Awesome! Finally an mine shaft hoist under your belt now. 😀
If you want one that is even cooler (Well, not outfitted with electronics, still old school), the Soudan underground mine in Tower Minnesota still operates theirs for tours. It goes down at a slant and also has two levels to the car. The depth of the mine is 2,341 feet.
Now that is epic!
Two words: AWESOME ELEVATOR!!
it is cage, not elevator. buildings have elevators/lifts and mines have cages.
@VERNONQASQUI BENTORIAQASQI T0!3d0 it’s actually and it’s elevator
Awesome video!
I'd be absolutely PETRIFIED to ride a lift like that! This lift makes West Tower at Tropicana seem boring LOL
Watch the brake its a disc brake it has a disc brake watch now its a disc brake lol
bigpopparand1 loool
bigpopparand1 wit
Double disc brake watch it
He loved the disc brake
I love the ding dong bell, pretty cool!
My home town is Wichita and been to the air and space museum in Hutch many times but never saw or tourd the salt mines but looks like a cool thing to do!! Great video!!
It is awesome. You should check it out!
That was pretty interesting!
I would like to go on one of these some day!
I can’t remember, does it have a disk brake?
Christian Oshiro Of course!!!!!!
Yes, I think it has a disk brake? Geez.... maybe he should tell us AGAIN that it has a disk brake?!
@@pomonabill220 No kidding... :)
yes
Oh yea
I was there today it was a wonderful experience
Awesome!
Actually, you are inside the cage, attached to the hoist via a wire rope or set of ropes. At 600 fpm, it's relatively slow but it travels only 650 feet (relatively shallow). When you've ridden on a double deck cage with 50 people per deck, you've been someplace big.
cool tour
That was nice of Scott to arrange the tour for you guys.
Pretty cool.
it goes 661 feet down thankfully not 666 feet
The whole 666 thing is a myth. It's not real. It's just something someone made up.
X files theme plays
That was great! thx
very cool elevator
omg i felt the pressure through my headphones - they are new and I didn't know they had that many features! review coming soon...
Fery fast and big winding drum lift Nice!!
It was epic.
I am doing research on some travel clubs for people my age and already hoping I can go and visit this mine.
I hear that two tone chime and all I can think of is the chimes they supposedly have for the New York subway, reminding passengers to "please stand clear of the closing doors"
6 I'm I'm
This is so fun
How far is elevator arrival ding heard and are there more speakers through out certain parts or
That’s crazy how far down it travels!
There are some others that go even further down.
it goes 661 feet down thankfully not 666 feet
Kone has a test freight elevator in a limestone mine which is 330m or 1,090 feet. It was designed to test a new Kevlar/carbon composite rope system called UltraRope. The first commercial installation using UltraRope will be in Kingdom Tower in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and will be 660m or 2,165 feet.
Now that is one elevator I don't wanna get stuck in. Lol.. or waiting on it to repair...lol
I'm really sad you didn't mention you were in Hutch because I live there and I could have showed you some other cool elevators around town! One elevator I know you would have been excited to see was the elevator at HMS 8 it is an original Dover Hydraulic and it is 4 floors! Also the court house in Hutch has an original manual operated elevator that has never been changed since the building was made and part of it had a gate that could be lock if inmates needed to be transported! My grandmas apartment building has new Thyssenkrupp elevator that were installed about a year ago! At the Hutch Clinic has a Schindler elevator! If you ever are interested let me know and I can show you around! Keep up the videos they are awesome!
Saw the court house elevator. Anyway did several live streams from there. Had I known about u. I would have met u
Dieselducy, want to visit the Pioneer Valley? i can show you the elevators at Umass Amherst.
One more question did you like the elevator in the court house? Also, if you ever come back remember to let me know so we can meet! Thanks!
i notice on freight elevator doors the little window is always on very side of the door is there a reason for this?
In my country it's been nearly 10 years since a similar hoist plunged 20ft due to cable drum breakage and no-one was capable to get it fixed. It's about the oldest salt mine in Europe.
Wow that is scary!
Must have been the same salt mine used in an episode of "Dirty Jobs". The guy in the red shirt at the mine was the same one on "Dirty Jobs". So cool,
Yes it is me and your right it was on Dirty Jobs, Hoe Stuff Works, and Modern Marvels, I have a IMDB page
It is and the car he used in the show is actually still on display here (its a mesume)
@@myronmarcotte7072 Excellent !!
You should do the elevator at Ruby Falls cavern in Chattanooga TN. Similar to this, goes down a big man made shaft to the cave, I remember riding on it as a kid it was a good minute or two to get down there.
We
Julian 6th the commitment will have a price for January to be a good day for January 9th to 9 fessed to do it again in a 8sick while you 99th much for 66th I 99th pi9th a good 9th and contacts 3rd the 99th is team of researchers at the university of typical next to me is team team of typical next to 6
mother of all disc brakes lol. and ty
Interesting elevator, and Happy 25th Anniversary of Elevator Videography!
it is not elevator, it is a cage
@@richardpearson58 0
Wow that was fast
Does any one know if this hoist is the X525 model or not the X525 model hoist has a Industrial disk breaking system
Is there a Video of this Entire Facility?
I wonder who did the voice over.....
Why, that’s you! You did great!
Thanks!
Yep the voice was awesome
Billy Mays
Jason you are awesome! You should do more voice overs.
The right question is...how all THIS can be held on ONE rope? Impressive i can say.
Elevator cables are way stronger than you think. On an elevator, one cable can hold more than the elevators weight.
@@Jiji-the-cat5425 Lol wuuut. Thats surprising. D:
@@ArmoredsoldierCZ Yeah, but it's a good thing.
0:22 Oh yes.
Mind The Gap between the train and the platform
Very ironic London Underground Sign
So, it’s a dead lift on that single cable with no redundancy and no counterbalance weights? Is that right?
I imagine the Elevator at the Titan Missle Range is like this in Tucson. That is a place I really want to check out sometime.
The chime @ 4:00 sounds similar to a modern german railroad crossing
1:13 That TFL mind the gap logo though!
《》Rahan2003《》 I wonder how they got that, this is ages away from London!
@@southern.spotter Probably a JPEG image printed out and stuck there.
《》Rahan2003《》 lol I didn’t think of that, but this is a nice lift! (Or Elevator in the US)
@@southern.spotter Yeah and the speed it goes is nice.
《》Rahan2003《》 Yeah! I don’t know why they call it a ‘hoist’ just looks like a freight lift/elevator to me
Is the hoist motor DC? Powered by an MG Set or high voltage secondary output transformer with DC rectification?
Looks like DC mg powered
I watched the video a few more times, especially of the machine room footage, the hoist motor is DC. Might be powered by an MG set, there was machinery running in the background, winding drum machine is like 480 VDC or higher. @@user-lx3th5on8l
Into aperture science!
What is the go hoist for
Wow 😮
I gotta see this
underkansas.org/
Would’ve been look like a tornado shelter
looks scary
Is there only one cable doing the job or did I not notice some others?
I believe there are more cables but it can be supported with just one. On elevators/lifts/hoists one of those cables is designed to hold the entire elevators weight at full capacity.
Is that a disc brake?
I think I found Cave Johnson's first salt mine he bought and founded Aperture Science
Awesome!
The Placebo Effect was hitting me hard watching this.
Stock!
Stop loffing!
This reminds me, most public elevators are 6 m/s or slower due to to inner ear discomfort at higher speeds. Mine shafts, f that
it is not elevator/lift, it is cage. the cage is the only way in and out of the mine and is your lifeline.
Oh damn it is going sooo fast if I saw that I would be thinking that I’m going to fall to the bottom floor i would freak out and scream 😱!
Hadeel OMG, you have a good time to get 99 noodles to eat!
I remember riding that elevator as a kid I thought that was scary but I got ride one in cripple creek Colorado I went 1000 feet down on a small double decker elevator
That is awesome
Can someone please clarify - I'm confused, does it use a disc brake system?
Mark yes it does.
Wow, just one hoist cable? Not a lot of redundancy there.
does this elevator have a counter waight?
Judging by how that drum design.. I doubt it
7:00 Is it just me or does that kinda sound like a Spectralert Low Frequency Sound?
Probably
it kinda does actually
Salt elevator so creepy lift
Dark lift inspection
How fast does that hoist go in mph
it is cage. get it right. it is a cage and take miners in and out of the mine.
What if it gets stuck in the middle of the trip?
If you were to get stuck it wouldn't be that bad. I'm sure they've got phones and alarms in it. Plus the people in the engine room will notice those giant motors stop.
it is a big old disk break lol
What kind of brake does it have?
Disc
I think I've been there
If you had to use the stairwell it sure would provide quite a workout thats for sure
I don’t think there is one
Dieselducy
Welcome to aperature saltmines
So there is only one cable that holds the think up?
This is how it looks...
But apparently there are emergency brakes or some stopping mechanism inside the elevator itself.
If I'm not mistaken, it would appear that there are no power / command connections inside the elevator either, so these lamps work on batteries.
IT IS A WINDING DRUM ELEVATOR WITH A DISK BRAKE
4:32 I was expecting the queen xenomorph to pop out.
so that is a working mine?
It is a working mine a repository for vitale records and master movie prints and a museum about salt mining
If yes I will find it
What is the speed for this Elevator
9000
holy fuck how fast is that? tower of terror my gosh
10:20 - Sounds like a Mitsubishi chime!
it almost does!
it is not elevator or lift, it is a cage. yes it operates similar to that of a lift/elevator, but it is cage. again I repeat it is not an elevator/lift, it is a cage.
This needs a small ladder running the depth of the shaft and a hatch on the top of the car. Would be scary to climb but scarier to be stuck down in there with no way out
Totally
"He got a Brembo brake"
"Ha Ha Ha that's not a brake? That's a brake." 9:03
lol .
It is a big disk break lol
What are you doing
How much tons that thing can Hold our Kg
That's the first winding drum I've seen that started a second row on the drum.
Yeah it was impressive
Who else noticed the machine’s motor was from Canada
The hoist is actually from the 1970's it is repurposed from a mine in Colorado.
That is emergency Elevator having a Ride.
lol
Why do I have a feeling that elevator to underground (roblox) and this elevator is in the same miners zone
when you visit a mine juse safteboots no sandals
Take a shot every time he says disk brake
Ima make ur Salem elevator (freight) in my game studio roblox. If u come on/or play I’ll be ready!
I don't think he plays roblox
