Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a people mover, such as an escalator, a travelator or a moving ramp.
  • a handle which is a manually operated potentiometer having a winding, an inverter switch for inverting the current through a motor of a conveyor in a well-known manner, and an electromagnet having normally open contacts.
  • the conveyor cannot be turned on in the direction of descent if, by mistake, an operator tries do so until the electromagnet is energized.
  • JP H03 124694 A it is described that a helper of a person in a wheel chair is able to hold the wheel chair with both hands to protect the wheel chair user while the helper is enabled to kick a kick plate of an emergency stop switch of an escalator system with his/her foot to urgently stop the escalator system.
  • the aim of the invention is to produce a people mover that is improved in its safety arrangements.
  • One aim of the invention, among others, is to eliminate the aforementioned drawbacks of prior-art solutions.
  • the purpose of the invention is further to produce one or more of the following advantages, among others:
  • the invention is based on the concept that the manual handle of the safety apparatus of a people mover, via which manual handle the people mover can be stopped, can be arranged to extend in the vertical direction from below to at least beside the handrail belt. Thus it is adequately visible from inside a travelator and it is at an advantageous height from the viewpoint of its activation.
  • a people mover such as an escalator, travelator or ramp, comprises a conveyor part and a handrail on the side of the conveyor part, which handrail comprises a fixed stationary frame part of the handrail and a moving handrail belt, which people mover further comprises a machine for moving the conveyor part, and a safety apparatus, which comprises a movable manual handle via which the people mover can be stopped.
  • the movable manual handle extends in the vertical direction from below (i.e. upwards) to at least beside the handrail belt.
  • the movable manual handle extends in the vertical direction from a level lower than the handrail belt to at least beside the handrail belt. In this way it can be simply supported and the apparatus formed compact.
  • the manual handle extends in the vertical direction from below to at least beside the handrail belt so that its top side is essentially level with or higher than the top surface of the handrail belt.
  • the side is level with the top surface of the belt it is still visible but is not in the way. When it is higher, the side is more visible but the construction is still compact.
  • the handle preferably does not extend more than 5 cm above the top surface of the handrail belt.
  • the manual handle is movably supported on the safety switch frame, which is fixed to fixed stationary frame part (6) at a fixing point inside the vertical projection of the handrail belt, from where the frame preferably extends to outside the vertical projection.
  • the safety switch frame which is fixed to fixed stationary frame part (6) at a fixing point inside the vertical projection of the handrail belt, from where the frame preferably extends to outside the vertical projection.
  • the people mover comprises means for determining the position of the manual handle and for stopping the people mover if the manual handle leaves the pre-defined normal position.
  • the manual handle is movably supported on the safety switch frame, which comprises a safety switch for determining the position of the manual handle, which safety switch is connected to the safety circuit, and arranged to disconnect the safety circuit if the manual handle leaves the pre-defined normal position.
  • the manual handle is movable in the vertical direction.
  • the movable manual handle extends in the vertical direction from below to at least beside the handrail belt and is at a horizontal distance from the handrail belt beside the handrail belt.
  • moving the manual handle downward initiates stopping of the people mover.
  • a stop is easy to activate by pressing and the handle can be formed to be simple.
  • moving the manual handle upward initiates stopping of the people mover.
  • At least the part of the manual handle that is beside the handrail belt is flat in the transverse direction of the travelator.
  • the manual handle is a plate-like piece, the large sides of which are vertical and in the direction of travel of the travelator.
  • the construction is compact.
  • At least the part of the manual handle that is beside the handrail belt is red.
  • the movable manual handle extends in the vertical direction to between the handrail belt and the wall or other part of the travelator, e.g. handrail belt, that is beside the handrail belt.
  • the safety apparatus comprises a fixed protector part supported immovably in its position (essentially near, e.g. at a horizontal distance of at most 2 cm) beside the manual handle, which protector part extends (upwards, i.e. from below) to at least level with the topmost point of the manual handle, preferably to above the topmost point of the manual handle.
  • the manual handle is movably supported on the safety switch frame, which is immovably fixed to the frame part of the handrail.
  • the frame is fixed to below the handrail belt so that the bottom surface of the frame is at the highest 15 cm from the top surface of the handrail belt.
  • the manual handle is movably supported on a frame, which is immovably fixed to the side glass comprised in the frame part of the handrail.
  • the construction is compact.
  • the manual handle of the handrail belt has a top side with the same angle of upward slope as the handrail belt that is at the point of it.
  • the part of the manual handle extending to at least beside the handrail belt is one continuous piece, preferably a plastic plate.
  • the manual handle is a solid piece, preferably of plastic.
  • one of the manual handles 3 defined above is preferably disposed as presented on an upward sloping section, preferably at the end of an upward sloping section, preferably at the top and at the bottom end.
  • an upward sloping section preferably at the end of an upward sloping section, preferably at the top and at the bottom end.
  • Fig. 1 presents a side view of a people mover 1 according to the invention, which is an escalator, travelator or ramp, which comprises a conveyor 10 and a handrail on the side of the conveyor, which handrail comprises a fixed stationary frame part 6 of the handrail and a moving handrail belt 5.
  • the people mover 1 further comprises a machine for moving the conveyor part and a safety apparatus 2, which comprises a movable manual handle 3, via which the people mover 1 can be stopped.
  • the movable manual handle 1 extends in the vertical direction from below (i.e. upwards)to at least beside the handrail belt 5 (at its point in the direction of travel).
  • the manual handle 3 is preferably disposed as presented on a uniformly upward sloping section, preferably at the end of a uniformly upward sloping section, preferably at both ends.
  • the manual handle 3 moves in the vertical direction, and moving the manual handle in the vertical direction initiates the stopping of the people mover 1. Preferably downward movement triggers the aforementioned stopping.
  • Fig. 2 presents the people mover of Fig. 1 in more detail, implemented according to a first embodiment, as an A-A cross-section of it.
  • the movable manual handle 3 extends in the vertical direction from below the handrail belt 5 to a level above the top surface of the handrail belt 5.
  • Fig. 3 presents the people mover 1 of Fig. 1 in more detail, implemented according to a second embodiment, as an A-A cross-section of it.
  • the movable manual handle 3 extends in the vertical direction from below to at least beside the handrail belt 5 so that its top side is essentially level with the top surface of the handrail belt 5.
  • the safety apparatus 2 can comprise a fixed protector part supported immovably in its position essentially near, e.g. at a horizontal distance of at most 2 cm, and beside the manual handle 3, which protector part extends to at least level with the topmost point of the manual handle, preferably to above the topmost point of the manual handle. In this way the handle can be protected from accidental activation.
  • the manual handle 3 is a plate-like piece, the large sides of which are vertical and in the direction of travel of the travelator.
  • the manual handle 3 is movably supported on the safety switch frame 7, which is immovably fixed to the frame part of the handrail belt to a fixing point inside the vertical projection of the handrail belt, from where the frame 7 extends to outside the vertical projection.
  • the part of the frame part to which the safety switch frame 7 is fixed is preferably the side glass 6, as presented.
  • the safety switch frame 7 comprises a safety switch 8 for determining the position of the manual handle 3, which safety switch 8 is preferably connected to the safety circuit (not presented) of the people mover 1, and arranged to disconnect the safety circuit if the manual handle leaves the pre-defined normal position.
  • the safety switch frame 7 is preferably fixed to below the handrail belt 5 so that the bottom surface of the frame is at the highest 15 cm from the top surface of the handrail belt.
  • the safety switch frame can be fixed with glue 14 or with mechanical fasteners 15.
  • the movable manual handle 3 can extend in the vertical direction to between the handrail belt and the wall or other part of the travelator, e.g. handrail belt, that is beside the handrail belt (not shown). In this case the aforementioned construction is preferable for achieving a compact construction without cramping.
  • the manual handle is beside the handrail belt at a horizontal distance from the handrail belt, so that the finger collision hazard would be small.
  • the distance is at least 3 cm, more preferably at least 5 cm, preferably not however over 20 cm.
  • the manual handle 3 is preferably a solid continuous piece of plastic material.
  • the manual handle 3 in its entirety, or at least the part of the manual handle beside the handrail belt, is preferably red to improve its prominence.
