The explanations apply mutatis mutandis to a moving walk with pallets. In an escalator, a conveyor element is a step and in a moving walk a conveyor element is a pallet.

Fig. 1 und Fig. 1a zeigen schematisch ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer Fahrtreppe 1 mit einem Stufenband 2 mit Stufen 2.1 für den Transport von Personen und/oder Gegenständen im Vorlauf. Im Rücklauf kehrt das endlose Stufenband 2 zurück. Nicht dargestellt ist die je Seitenwand 3 vorgesehene Balustrade mit Handlauf. Eine Seitenwand 3 besteht im Wesentlichen aus mindestens einem Blechteil 4, das zur Längssteifigkeit der Fahrtreppe 1 beiträgt und üblicherweise aus einer oberen Blechteilhälfte 4.1 und einer unteren Blechteilhälfte 4.2 besteht. Die Blechteilhälften 4.1, 4.2 sind aus einer, unprofilierten, ebenen Blechtafel gefertigt, wie in Verbindung mit Fig. 2 beschrieben. Mit der Bauweise des Blechteils 4 gemäss Fig. 2 sind keine für die Statik der Fahrtreppe 1 unnötigen Partien der Blechteilhälften 4.1, 4.2 zu entfernen. Mit der Trennlinie gemäss Fig. 2 entstehen beispielsweise sechseckige Aussparungen 4.3, die zur Gewichtseinsparung und zur effizienten Materialausnutzung beitragen. Zwei benachbarte Blechteilhälften 4.1, 4.2 werden üblicherweise an der Stossseite zusammengebaut, beispielsweise zusammengeschweisst oder zusammengeklebt oder mittels clinchen verbunden. Fig. 1 and Fig. 1a show schematically an embodiment of an escalator 1 with a step belt 2 with steps 2.1 for the transport of people and / or objects in the flow. In the return, the endless step belt 2 returns. Not shown is the per side wall 3 provided balustrade with handrail. A side wall 3 consists essentially of at least one sheet metal part 4, which contributes to the longitudinal stiffness of the escalator 1 and usually consists of an upper half sheet metal part 4.1 and a lower half sheet half 4.2. The sheet metal halves 4.1, 4.2 are made of a, unprofiled, flat metal sheet, as in connection with Fig. 2 described.
