Multi-car Elevator †

In elevator systems, a box in which persons or objects are loaded is called a `car', and the space where a car can move vertically is called a `shaft'. In normal elevator systems, a car is installed for each shaft.

In a multi-car system, several cars are installed for a shaft.
