Derartige Schmiervorrichtungen haben den Zweck, zu verhindern, dass es durch umweltbedingte, praktisch unvermeidbare Schmutzablagerungen wie Staub, Abrieb von U-Bahnbremsen usw. an Sockelblechen der Fahrtreppe oder des Fahrsteigs oder durch ungünstige Materialzusammenstellungen zu erhöhter Reibung und Geräuschbildung zwischen den Sockelblechen und dem Stufenband kommen kann.Such lubricating devices have the purpose of preventing it from environmental, virtually unavoidable dirt deposits such as dust, abrasion of subway brakes, etc. come to base plates of the escalator or the moving walk or unfavorable material compositions to increased friction and noise between the base plates and the step band can.

Mit der Japanischen Patentschrift JP 53197667 ist eine Schmiervorrichtung für Fahrtreppen bekannt geworden, mittels welcher Führungsschienen für das Stufenband einer Fahrtreppe geschmiert werden können. Zu diesem Zweck ist ein mit einer Batterie gepeistes elektromagnetisches Ventil vorgesehen, das an einer Ausgangsöffnung eines an einer Fahrtreppenstufe befestigten Oelbehälters angeordnet ist. Am elektromagnetischen Ventil ist ein Rohr angeschlossen, über welches die Führungsschiene für das Hinterrad der Fahrtreppenstufe geschmiert wird. Vom Rohr zweigt ein flexibler Schlauch ab, durch welchen das Schmiermittel der Führungsschiene für das Vorderrad der Fahrtreppenstufe zugeführt wird. Für die Steuerung des elektromagnetischen Ventils ist ein Timer vorgesehen. Bei dieser Fahrtreppe ist eine einwandfreie seitliche Schmierung nicht gewährleistet.With the Japanese patent JP 53197667 a lubricating device for escalators has become known, by means of which guide rails for the step band of an escalator can be lubricated. For this purpose, a battery-powered electromagnetic valve is provided, which is arranged at an exit opening of an oil container attached to an escalator step. On the electromagnetic valve, a pipe is connected, via which the guide rail for the rear wheel of the escalator step is lubricated. From the pipe branches off a flexible hose, through which the lubricant of the guide rail for the front wheel of the escalator stage is supplied. For the control of the electromagnetic valve, a timer is provided. In this escalator perfect lateral lubrication is not guaranteed.

Bei einer anderen, mit der Japanischen Patentschrift JP 08225285 bekannt gewordenen Schmiervorrichtung für eine Fahrtreppe sind entlang der seitlichen Kanten einer Fahrtreppenstufe Gleitmittelträger vorhanden. Aus diesen Gleitmittelträgern ragen Bürsten bildende Borsten heraus, die die Sockelbleche der Fahrtreppe berührten, welche die Fahrtreppenstufen seitlich führen. Ein an der Rückseite des Trittetufenteils der Fahrtreppenstufe befestigter Gleitmittelbehälter ist über Rohre und in diese eingesetzte Dochte mit den Gleitmittelträgern bzw. den Bürsten verbunden und versorgt die Gleitmittelträgern und die Bürsten mit Schmiermittel, das durch die Bürsten auf die Sockelbleche aufgetragen wird.In another, with the Japanese Patent JP 08225285 become known lubricating device for a Escalators are provided along the lateral edges of an escalator step lubricant carrier. Brush-forming bristles protrude from these lubricant carriers and touch the base plates of the escalator which laterally guide the escalator steps. An attached to the back of the tread part of the escalator stage Gleitmittelbehälter is connected via pipes and wicks inserted in this with the Gleitmittelträgern or the brushes and supplies the Gleitmittelträgern and brushes with lubricant, which is applied by the brushes on the base plates.

Bei dieser Einrichtung wird eine Schmiermittelspur auf die Sockelbleche übertragen, deren Breite der gesamten Höhe der Fahrtreppenstufe entspricht. Es wird daher relativ viel Schmiermittel verbraucht, und die breite Schmiermittelspur wird vom Stufenband nur zu einem geringen Teil überdeckt.In this device, a lubricant trace is transferred to the base plates whose width corresponds to the total height of the escalator step. It is therefore consumed relatively much lubricant, and the broad lubricant trace is covered by the step band only a small part.

Aus JP 10109874 ist eine Schmiervorrichtung für Fahrtreppen bekannt, bei welcher in eine Fahrtreppenstufe ein bewegliches Auftragelement für ein Schmiermittel eingebaut ist, das nur in gewissen Bereichen der Umlaufbahn der Fahrtreppenstufen gegen die die Fahrtreppenstufen seitlich führenden Sockelbleche gepresst wird. während des Anpressens fördert eine Pumpe Schmiermittel von einem Schmiermitteltank zum Auftrageelement, welches Schmiermittel dann auf die Sockelbleche appliziert wird. Auch Bei dieser Einrichtung wird eine Schmiermittelspur auf die Sockelbleche übertragen, deren Breite der gesamten Höhe der Fahrtreppenstufe entspricht, so dass relativ viel Schmiermittel verbraucht und die breite Schmiermittelspur nur zu einem geringen Teil vom Stufenband überdeckt wird.Out JP 10109874 a lubricating device for escalators is known in which in an escalator step, a movable applicator element is installed for a lubricant that is pressed only in certain areas of the orbit of the escalator steps against the escalator stages laterally leading base plates. During pressing, a pump delivers lubricant from a lubricant tank to the applicator, which lubricant is then applied to the base plates. Also in this device, a lubricant trace is transferred to the base plates whose width corresponds to the entire height of the escalator step, so that consumes relatively much lubricant and the broad lubricant trace is covered only to a small extent by the step band.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Schmiervorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art vorzuschlagen, die vorstehend erwähnte Nachteile nicht aufweist.The invention has for its object to provide a lubricating device of the type mentioned, which does not have the aforementioned disadvantages.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch in den Patentansprüchen 1 und 4 angegebene Erfindung gelöst.This object is achieved by the invention specified in the patent claims 1 and 4.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile gegenüber den vorstehend beschriebenen Einrichtungen liegen insbesondere darin, dass der Aufbau der schmiervorrichtung sehr einfach und daher kostengünstig ist, dass die von den Gleitsteinen bzw. Pinseln gebildete Schmiermittelspur relativ schmal und daher schmiermittelsparend ist, und dass die schmale Schmiermittelspur so angeordnet werden kann, dass sie durch die Fahrtreppenstufen bzw. die Fahrsteigpaletten weitgehend abgedeckt wird. Das Risiko der Beschmutzung von Fahrtreppen- bzw. Fahrsteigbenutzern kann damit stark reduziert werden.The advantages achieved by the invention over the above-described devices are, in particular, that the structure of the lubricating device is very simple and therefore inexpensive, that the lubricant track formed by the sliding blocks or brushes is relatively narrow and therefore lubricant-saving, and that the narrow lubricant track so can be arranged that it is largely covered by the escalator steps or the pavement pallets. The risk of fouling escalator or moving walk users can thus be greatly reduced.
