Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for connecting at least one drive belt or parts of drive belts to a pallet of a moving walk.
- DE-U 201 00 833 shows an escalator or moving walk with a step or pallet belt which is driven by drive elements which extend on either side of the belt or in the middle under the belt and which rotate between a deflection wheel and a drive wheel, the steps or pallets being driven at drive points on each drive element.
- the drive element is designed as a toothed belt which has blocks, one block each being connected to a step or pallet at the drive point.
- the blocks contain vulcanized rings, sleeves or tabs into which axes of the steps or pallets engage.
- This drive belt is complex and can only be handled laboriously, in particular when carrying out repair work on the construction site, since here, as a rule, only welding of the belt ends can be used when parts of the belt (s) are replaced.
- the aim of the subject matter of the invention is to propose a system for the simple connection of belts and pallets, which does not require welding of the belt ends and thus allows simple assembly even on the construction site if damaged pieces of the drive belt have to be replaced.
- the drive belt pointing in the direction of the respective pallet at predeterminable intervals per pallet Approach has that the respective pallet has receiving areas, that a positive connection between the respective receiving area and the approach can be brought about, and that in order to produce a positive connection, the end areas of a divided drive belt or the end areas of drive belt parts are provided with guide areas.
- a flat-type moving walkway can be realized, with which it is possible to deflect pallets around very small radii.
- Very narrow and flat pallets are used for this.
- toothed belt drives are used. These are preferably designed as polyurethane timing belts, which are simply equipped with fasteners formed on the back of the belt.
- the lugs serve to connect to the pallets, which advantageously have receiving areas for the lugs.
- the drive belts have on their back side (that is the side facing the pallet) eye-shaped projections which can be positively connected to the respective receiving area of the pallet with a push-through connection.
- connection system allows a simple plug-in or screw connection that does not require welding of the belt ends and thus allows simple assembly on the construction site if damaged pieces have to be replaced.
- the approaches in the dimension of the pallet division are designed alternately in the center and on the inside and outside. This measure can ensure that by forming guide areas at the ends of the drive belts or the parts of the drive belts, a positive connection for closing the belt ends, in particular in the area of the shoulders / receiving areas, can be produced.
- FIG. 1 drive belt in different views
- Figure 2 Representation of a connection area of a divided
- Figure 1 shows a drive belt 1 in the form of a toothed belt made of polyurethane, which is provided on the drive side with a corresponding tooth profile 2.
- the drive belt 1 On the side 3 facing away from the tooth profile 2, the drive belt 1 is provided with eye-shaped projections 4 which are each formed with a passage area 5.
- the lugs 4 are provided alternately, ie on the one hand approximately in the middle and on the other hand outside.
- Figure 2 shows two drive belts 1 arranged side by side, the upper one of which is undivided.
- the lower drive belt 1 is cut through and has 6.7 guide areas 8.9 in the region of its ends.
- the guide area 9 is designed in the manner of a tab, while the guide area 8 has a receiving area 10 formed for the tab.
- Figure 3 shows a connection of the drive belt 1, including the lugs 4 and the passage areas 5 with pallets 1 1 of a moving walkway, not shown.
- the pallets 11 have receiving areas 12 which can be positively connected to the shoulders 4 of the drive belt 1, the division plane 13 advantageously being provided in the area of the shoulders 4 / receiving areas 1 2.
- the lugs 4 are at such a distance from one another that they can be operatively connected to an associated receiving area 12 on the pallet 11.
- the pallets 1 are very narrow, so that small circumferential radii can be realized when the pallets 11 are deflected.
