Who_invented_the_safety_elevators Elisha Otis he was inspired to design what was then called the "safety elevator".... Most elevators of the time were extremely dangerous. The key to Otis' invention was a toothed guiderail located on each side of the elevator shaft that caught the elevator car. If the cable failed, the teeth would engage, locking the car in place.
Braden Fillmore just kidding it was Elisha Otis
Elijah Otis invented elevator safety. Back then the elevators would brake down and fall to the ground, which caused the people to die. Otis invented a back up so if the elevator broke down you were safe.
The company named for the inventor, Elisha Otis, the Otis Elevator Company.
Elevators were invented because people didn't like to walk up a lot of stairs.
The safety pin was invented to pay off a debt.
Primitive elevators were in use as early as the 3rd century BC, operated by human, animal, or water wheel power. The first documented evidence of the elevator is found in the works of Vitruvius, the Roman architect. He reported that Archimedesbuilt the first one in about 236.From about the middle of the 19th century, power elevators, often steam-operated, were used for conveying materials in factories, mines, and warehouses. In 1853, American inventor Elisha Otis demonstrated a freight elevator equipped with a safety device to prevent falling in case a supporting cable should break. Otis established a company for manufacturing elevators and patented (1861) a steam elevator. In 1846, Sir William Armstrong introduced the hydraulic crane, and in the early years 1870s, hydraulic machines began to replace the steam-powered elevator.Electric elevators came into to use toward the end of the 19th century.

"Elisha Otis invented a safety device that prevented elevators from falling if the hoisting cable broke. He worked on this device while living in Yonkers, New York in 1852, and had a finished product in 1854." (www.wikipedia.com)
