Definitions

  • the invention relates to an escalator or a moving walk with a handrail, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • An escalator or moving walk according to the preamble of claim 1 is e.g. from GB-A-1 086 930.
  • handrails There are escalators and moving walkways with handrails known at those of the handrail, which are essentially the shape of a lying C, inside in the middle of a guide body usually with bevelled flanks.
  • This guide body is called a wedge, although he is usually not pointed runs, and serves in particular for improved entrainment a guide wheel for the handrail.
  • the handrails are intended for a good and especially slip-free are taken On the other hand, however, they slide well on guide elements.
  • the disadvantage was a wedge-free handrail with handrails guided by pulleys accepted, in particular escalators and Moving platforms where the balustrade is made of glass.
  • the proportion of such escalators and moving walks has since the 70s increased significantly, and it was often called felt unsatisfactory that with a pure friction roller drive for the handrail this slips so that no synchronous movement between step or pallet belt and Handrail is more present, giving the passenger a feeling of insecurity taught.
  • the invention has the object, a Escalator or moving walk according to the preamble of Claim 1 to create, the or even at escalators or moving walkways without deflecting wheels in the balustrade heads, especially with escalators or moving walks transparent balustrades that offers the possibility of a improved drive safety of the handrail and at the same time an improved synchronization over the step or To ensure pallet band.
  • a handrail with Guide body the preferred suitably designed drive edges is used, which still has support rollers guided in the deflection of the handrail.
  • the drive can be in Proven way concealed over a semicircular loop a drive pulley with pulley, where on this point also the length compensation required anyway can be done.
  • the measures according to the invention enable the handrail according to the invention in the deflection, so in The area of the support rollers for the balustrade head does not tip over.
  • horizontal end leg provided the guide plate, which is also in the deflection in the inner ends of the substantially C-shaped profile hineineruiten.
  • Support surface of the guide body quite wide and the guide body overall is rather squat. hereby takes place such an improved support laterally Tipping moments that even without end legs of the guide plate of the Handrail without external impact does not leave the leadership would.
  • the handrail is quite narrow overall flat. This can save on the one hand material, and indeed more material than it would for the additional deployment of the Guide body is required, on the other hand, the lateral Tipping moments less.
  • the third one finally becomes one better umgreifbarer handrail of the passengers regularly than pleasantly felt; especially children often have difficulties on the commonly used and for stability reasons sufficiently broad handrails to hold on.
  • the profile of the handrail here as in the form of a lying C, it is understood that basically in fact, the form of a lying ⁇ is actually more appropriate. It is particularly favorable in this context that the guide body stabilizing effect. Apparently the inclination of the Handrail, to deform laterally at the bend, the at a pure C-shape is pronounced, in a wedge shape, basically an ⁇ -form, much smaller. In addition is the degree of compression and thus the material stress on Reason for the reduction of dimensions, especially in the vertical direction less, so that the handrail according to the invention also less likely to crack on the heavily used top inclines.
  • the handrail according to the invention is thus also special suitable for escalators and moving walks, at least partially outdoors, such as escalators for Subway entrances or the like.
  • the guide body down to about the area of the holding ends of the profile.
  • This can be one for the Drive suitable, relatively large inclined surface provide which are driven by a corresponding deflection roller is. Nevertheless, a large contact surface remains for the non-kinking Transfer to support rollers in the deflection area of the balustrade.
  • the illustrated in Fig. 1 embodiment of an escalator has a handrail 10 which is substantially in the form of a lying ⁇ is formed.
  • the handrail has a guide body 12, which - in the illustration in Fig. 1 - extends downwards in the middle.
  • the ends of the handrail 10 are bent in a conventional manner by 180 ° and run in Holding ends 14, 16, which are intended from Fig. 2 apparent horizontal end leg of a guide plate for behind the handrail guide.
  • the horizontal end legs enter in inner ends 18, 20 of the handrail.
  • the guide body 12 then points to the main part of the Handrail a rectangular area 22 on, the few Millimeters down. Then converge to these two trapezoid flanks 24 of the guide body 12, wherein the trapezoid flanks to each other an angle of 20 ° to 50 °, preferably around 35 °.
  • the guide body 12 terminates in a bearing surface 26, the an enlarged width compared to the total cross section of the Handrail 10 has. Between the holding ends 14, 16 and the Trapezoid flanks 24, the handrail has a free space 28, the is also relatively large.
  • the handrail 10 is comparatively compact formed and has a cross-sectional area with relative large material thicknesses, but small overall dimensions.
  • FIG. 2 From Fig. 2 it can be seen in which way the inventive Handrail on an escalator in the deflection of the Balustrade can be used.
  • a Escalator illustrated with massive balustrade where it is understands that at will also an escalator with Glasbalustrade is realized accordingly.
  • the bypass takes place via support rollers 38, which are equipped with a raceway 40 and a double ball bearing 42 are provided.
  • On the fairly wide race 40 rolls the guide body 12 with his Support surface 26 from.
  • the detour is completely over Realized rolling friction, so that the guide plate 44 with his horizontal end legs 46, 48 serves only as a lift-off.
  • the horizontal end legs 46, 48 are known per se Way provided with a Abschlußfalz 50 and protrude into the inner ends 18, 20 into it.
  • the guide plate 44 is in a conventional manner substantially U-shaped and takes the storage of the support rollers on their axes 54 on.
  • About an extrusion profile 56 is the guide plate 44 additionally supported and secured, the remaining clearance between the extruded profile 56 and the Abschlußfalz 50 on the one hand and the Handrail, so the inner ends 18, 20 and the holding ends 14, 16, on the other hand, in many areas to the requirements is adaptable. For example, this can be indoors mounted escalators and moving walks, where regular lower temperature fluctuations are present, the free space be designed correspondingly lower.
  • Fig. 3 it can be seen that numerous, in the example 25, support rollers 38 distributed over a balustrade head 60 can be attached.
  • the distance of the support rollers 38 is thus due to the inherent rigidity of the handrail 10 too low chosen, as that for the passenger - if he ever his Hand also in the area of the balustrade head rest - one Out-of-roundness would be noticeable.
  • reduced a variety of Support rollers also the resulting flexing work; over the whole semicircular balustrade head remains with the handrail minimal deviations bent around.
  • a V-belt pulley is recessed located in the substructure of the escalator or moving walk, the approximately semicircular looped by the guide body is, with the constant tension of the handrail over a spring-loaded pinch roller in the immediate vicinity the drive pulley can be ensured.
  • This can the drive of the handrail waiving slipping Tilting drive wheels in the manner of a V-belt and with appropriate security.
