In this study, we evaluate the lifting and lowering motion of U-shaped suspension type cylinder elevating mechanism by changing the wheel parameters. The basic components of U-shaped suspension type cylinder elevating mechanism are a rope and wheels. This mechanism moves up and down in a spiral by the driving force of the wheels while supporting its own weight with a rope. Therefore, the force in the direction of the cylinder axis generated at the contact surface between the wheel and the cylinder is considered to affect the lifting and lowering motion. In order to evaluate the motion in the direction of the cylindrical axis, lifting and lowering experiments were conducted by changing the friction coefficient of the wheels and the angle to attach the wheel.
