Interpretation of raw data to customer needsquestion Customer statement Interpreted need
Typical Uses I need to move fasterwhen going to next level.I find it very difficult tolift up or down heavyequipment brought toSPS.I use to loose a lot ofenergy while going up.
Moving on the lift isfaster than on stairs.The lift carries heavyload.
Lift need no use ofenergy.

Likes - current lift I like escalator, it feelsbetter.I can install elevator inmy building.
It is easy to useI like the durability of thelift.
It is comfortable to moveon lift.The lift can beaccommodated in anysmall space.The lift is easy to operateThe lift has long life span
Interpretation of raw data to customer needs
Like - current lift I can not fall down onlift while moving in thelift.
The lift can move safelyand ease
Dislikes – current lift I don’t like lift whenelectric power goes off.It is difficult to put inSPS, need re-design ofthe building.Disable can not operateit.
The lift can work withoutelectricity.Lift can easily installinside structure oroutside a building in anysmall space.The lift is automatic andmoves freely.

As you saw from the questionnaire of the concept testing it isconcluded that whether the elevator is preferable or not.
In the other word the questionnaire help us to findout:Is it really worth it to install an elevator/(elevators) for SPSbuilding and are the potential customers going to use it?
As you saw from the questionnaire of the concept testing it isconcluded that whether the elevator is preferable or not.
In the other word the questionnaire help us to findout:Is it really worth it to install an elevator/(elevators) for SPSbuilding and are the potential customers going to use it?
There it is some video of the conversation from the potentialcustomers (SPS staff, or Students) to find the answer .
Video’s No. Number 1 Number 2 Number 3
Number 4 Number 5 Number 6
According to the potential customer’s opinion:
We have decided to install the elevator(lift) in the main hall(Central hall) and according to prof. saffian’s guide, we havedesigned the elevator in a position which there is no need todestroy any construction. More information of the elevatorposition is available in the following video which is prepared byCATIA.

More information of the elevatorposition is available in the following video which is prepared byCATIA.
Concept developmentPotential customer’sanswers:
In conclusion:
It is required to produce an elevator which is able to move quicklyand deliver the passengers safely. As it was obvious from the videoconversations the customers were worried about the elevators safetyissues.
It will be available by adding a system to save the power electricityand use this power when the electricity is gone.
Also by using sensors the elevator is capable to save passengers fromdanger.for example when someone is standing between the elevator’s door.Another example of using sensors is when the instruments are damagethe sensors can alarm and the elevator can automatically stop beforethe particular part damage.
Using efficient breaks make the elevator safe in the time when thecable of elevator is torn or the hydraulic system is damage.

Prototype Definition:
Prototype is defined as “an approximation of the product alongone or more dimensions of interest.”
Prototypes can be usefully classified along twodimensions.
1- Physical Prototypes
2- Analytical Prototypes

Prototypes can be usefully classified along twodimensions.
1- Physical Prototypes
2- Analytical Prototypes
1- Physical Prototypes:It includes Models that look and feel like the product. Proof-of-concept
prototypes used to test an idea quickly, and experimental hardware used to
validate the functionality of a product.
2- Analytical Prototypes:Analytical prototypes represent the product in a non-tangible, usually
mathematical or visual manner. Interesting aspects of the product are
analyzed rather than built.

2- Analytical Prototypes:Analytical prototypes represent the product in a non-tangible, usually

Analytical Prototypes:
Analytical prototypes are generally more flexible than physical prototypes.
Because it is a mathematical approximation of a product. In most cases, changing aparameter in an analytical prototype is easier than changing an attribute of aphysical prototype.
Two technologies have emerged as particularly importantin the past 20 years:
1- 3D CAD Modeling and Analysis
2- Free-form Fabrication Using 3D CAD to rapid prototyping or “3D Printing”.

which the elevator rope (3) coming from the
diverting pulley (8,28)
Detail description of patent:
In the car frame of the elevator, and a
hydraulic cylinder (5) and a piston (7) with
at least one diverting pulley (8,28) on its top
end for the elevator rope (3).
The arrangement comprising at least one
additional diverting pulley (9) around
which the elevator rope (3) coming from the
diverting pulley (8,28)
Detail description of patent:
On the top end of the piston (7) is passed to itssecond rope anchorage, characterized in thateach elevator rope (3) has been directed from therope anchorage (11) first over the diverting pulley(8) on the top end of the piston.
The new technologies (Improvement) of thispatent is:
A system to save the power electricity and usethis power when the electricity is gone.
By using sensors the elevator is capable to savepassengers from danger.
Using efficient (Smart) breaks, which help thespeed of elevator keep constant.

Detail description of patent:
The new technologies (Improvement) of
this patent is:
Another issue which can mention as a patent is
the new design of the SPS elevator. As a Design
patent. Because of the different position of the
elevator’s door. In the first floor the elevator’s
door will be open from the front side. However,
in the second and third floor the doors will be
open from the side of the elevator. Which
make this elevator unique in compare with the
other types of elevator.
