ABSTRACT:
Elevator hoist ropes are continuously cleaned by a rotatable generally cylindrical wire brush assembly mounted in the machine room or hoistway along the path of travel of the hoist ropes. The axis of rotation of the wire brush is skewed to the direction of movement of the hoist ropes so as to cause the brush bristles to enter the rope strand valleys whereby grease and other materials are cleaned out of the inter-strand valleys on the rope.
