Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Personenförderband mit mindestens zwei Sektionen und einer zwischen den Sektionen angeordneten Übergangseinrichtung, die den Transport von Personen und Gegenständen von einer Sektion zur anderen Sektion ermöglicht.The invention relates to a passenger conveyor belt at least two sections and one between the sections arranged transition device that the transport of People and objects from one section to another Section enables.

Aus der Offenlegungsschrift DE 2 827 249 bekannt geworden ist ein Personenförderer mit Beschleunigungsabschnitten bzw. Verzögerungsabschnitten, die es Personen ermöglichen den Übergangszustand von einer Geschwindigkeit Null zu einer Nenntransportgeschwindigkeit des Personenförderers und umgekehrt zu überwinden. Formteile bilden zwischen den Abschnitten kontinuierliche Transportflächen, indem massiven Zonen und hohlen Zonen der Formteile in Nuten bzw. in Rippen der Transportbänder der Abschnitte eingreifen.Become known from the published patent application DE 2 827 249 is a passenger conveyor with acceleration sections or delay sections that enable people the transition state from zero speed to a nominal transport speed of the passenger conveyor and vice versa to overcome. Moldings form between the Sections of continuous transport areas by massive zones and hollow zones of the molded parts in grooves or engage in ribs of the conveyor belts of the sections.

Der zur Überbrückung zweier benachbarter Abschnitte notwendige Formteil ist von derartiger Grösse, dass kleine Schuhgrössen, beispielsweise Kinderschuhe oder spitze Absätze von Damenschuhen auf dem Formteil Platz finden. Weil dadurch die Bewegung der zu transportierenden Person am Formteil gestört wird, besteht eine erhebliche Unfallgefahr.The one to bridge two adjacent sections necessary molding is of such a size that small Shoe sizes, for example children's shoes or pointy Heels of women's shoes can be found on the molded part. Because this means the movement of the person to be transported is disturbed on the molding, there is a significant Risk of accidents.

Aus der Druckschrift EP 0 685 421 A ist ein Personenförderband bekannt geworden. Zwischen zwei Sektionen ist eine Übergangseinrichtung vorgesehen, die den problemlosen Übergang von einer Sektion zur anderen Sektion ermöglicht. Dazu sind zwischen Brücken angeordnete, angetriebene Rollen vorgesehen, die die unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten der Sektionen berücksichtigen. From EP 0 685 421 A is a Passenger conveyor belt became known. Between two Sections a transition device is provided, the smooth transition from one section to another section allows. For this purpose, powered rollers provided the different Take into account the speeds of the sections.

Wie in Fig. 2 und Fig. 4 gezeigt, wird der Schuh 17 einlaufseitig vom ersten Band 11 auf den mit beispielsweise drehbaren ersten Zylinderrollen 36 ausgerüsteten Einlaufs-Kamm 30 und weiter bis zur ersten Kammwalze 20 bzw. zweiten Kammwalze 20.11 geschoben. Die angetriebene erste Kammwalze 20 bzw. zweite Kammwalze 20.11 schieben den Schuh 17 auslaufseitig weiter auf den mit beispielsweise drehbaren zweiten Zylinderrollen 37 ausgerüsteten Auslaufs-Kamm 31 und weiter bis zum zweiten Band 14, das den Schuh 17 ab den zweiten Zylinderrollen 37 zieht. Der Abstand zwischen erstem Band 11 und erster Kammwalze 20 bzw. zweiter Kammwalze 20.11 ist so klein, dass sogar ein Kinderschuh 17 von der ersten Kammwalze 20 bzw. zweiter Kammwalze 20.11 fortbewegt wird, bevor er das erste Band 11 verlässt. Der Kinderschuh wird von der ersten Kammwalze 20 bzw. zweiten Kammwalze 20.11 mindestens solange fortbewegt, bis er das zweite Band 14 erreicht hat.As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the shoe 17 inlet side from the first belt 11 to the one with, for example rotatable first cylindrical rollers 36 equipped inlet comb 30 and on to the first comb roller 20 or second Comb roller 20.11 pushed. The driven first comb roller 20 or second comb roller 20.11 push the shoe 17 on the outlet side, for example with the rotatable one second cylindrical rollers 37 equipped comb 31 and continue to the second volume 14, the shoe 17 from the second cylindrical rollers 37 pulls. The distance between first belt 11 and first comb roller 20 or second Comb roller 20.11 is so small that even a children's shoe 17 from the first comb roller 20 or the second comb roller 20.11 is moved before it leaves the first belt 11. The Children's shoe is from the first comb roller 20 or second Comb roller 20.11 moves at least until he second volume 14 has reached.

Bei längeren Übergangseinrichtungen 10 können die Zylinderrollen 36, 37 auch angetrieben sein und den Schuh 17 wie die erste Kammwalze 20 bzw. zweite Kammwalze 20.11 aktiv fördern. Zylinderrollen 36, 37 können auch am zweiten Kamm 25 und dritten Kamm 27 angeordnet sein.With longer transition devices 10, the Cylindrical rollers 36, 37 also be driven and the shoe 17 as the first comb roller 20 or second comb roller 20.11 actively promote. Cylindrical rollers 36, 37 can also be on the second Comb 25 and third comb 27 may be arranged.

Die Übergangseinrichtung 10 ist leicht gegen das erste Band 11 hin geneigt angeordnet, sodass der Einlaufs-Kamm 30 etwas tiefer liegt als der Auslaufs-Kamm 31. The transition device 10 is slightly against the first band 11 arranged inclined so that the inlet comb 30 somewhat is lower than the outlet comb 31.

Bei Bändern ohne kämmbare Rippen vermindert die geneigte Anordnung der Übergangseinrichtung 10 die Einklemmgefahr am Einlauf der Übergangseinrichtung 10. Bei Bändern wie im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel gezeigt, kann die Übergangseinrichtung 10 auch horizontal angeordnet werden, wobei die Oberfläche des zweiten Bandes 14 auf gleicher Höhe liegt wie die Oberfläche des ersten Bandes 11.In the case of tapes without combable ribs, the inclined one decreases Arrangement of the transition device 10 on the risk of pinching Inlet of the transition device 10. For tapes as in shown the present embodiment, the Transition device 10 can also be arranged horizontally, the surface of the second band 14 being the same Height is like the surface of the first band 11.
