Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a support, to a module to be placed on the support, to a transport system for displacement of people/goods modernized with the module of the invention and to a modernization method of transport systems for displacement of people/goods, for example, escalators.
  • US 6685002 discloses a method of modernizing an escalator using modular components.
  • the mechanical and electrical parts of an existing escalator are removed, leaving only the structural truss framework and cross members as well as all external parts, such as external panels, that interface with the building.
  • a single module is placed at the top of the escalator and another module at the bottom.
  • a plurality of incline modules are placed in the central inclined part of the escalator, at each cross member.
  • GB 2121748 discloses a reconstruction method for improving an obsolete escalator having a frame with supporting members projecting inwardly therefrom, mounting various constituents such as an endless series of moving steps, handrails moving in synchronism with the steps, a drive unit and drive sprockets, balustrades standing upright at both sides of the steps, and rails for guiding the steps comprising the steps of: removing the constituents from the frame of the obsolete escalator; removing the supporting members from the frame; mounting a second frame in the frame, the second frame being provided with supporting and base members already attached thereto for supporting the various constituents of a new escalator; mounting the balustrades, drive unit, rails and so forth, as well as series of steps, of the new man conveyor on the second frame; and covering the gaps between the second frame and the frame by outer deck members secured to the second frame.
  • US 3,707,220 A discloses a passenger conveyor with an entrance and an exit, wherein the passenger conveyor is assembled from standard modular units.
  • the number of modules is determined according to the requirements of the installation.
  • the modules are fitted together by precisely aligned coupling blocks, which do not allow any adjustments.
  • a method for assembling a drive system for an escalator system includes the step of securing one or more track sets extending along a path of the escalator to support members, wherein a drive member is secured to the support members.
  • JP 2002-211862 A discloses a renewal method for an existing escalator.
  • a reference position is set which defines the position of new pieces of equipment on the frame of the existing escalator.
  • the invention refers to a module to be placed on a support and to a modernized transport system for displacement of people/goods such as those defined by the set of claims.
  • the invention also refers to a modernization method of transport systems for displacement of people/goods, incorporating a module of the invention.
  • the method can be fixed or adjustable.
  • the fixed method comprises:
  • An aspect of the invention refers to a support (1) for module (101, 201) of the transport system for displacement of people/goods comprising a plurality of plates where the transport system has system lines comprising:
  • the module (101, 201) comprises:
  • the tie plates (22, 23, 24) can be grouped in the same element, as shown in figure 4 .
  • the module (101, 201) comprises:
  • the rolling means facilitate the placement of the module (101, 201) in the support (1).
  • the weight of the module (101, 201) is usually high, since it contains numerous components, so any help which facilitates the placement of the module (101, 201) in the support (1) contributes to a reduction of the mounting time.
  • the entrance positioning and verification means (101A) are configured to maintain within tolerances the entrance working point (120) forming an entrance module (101).
  • the exit positioning and verification means (201A) are configured to maintain within tolerances the exit working point (220) forming an exit module (201).
  • the central positioning and verification means (301A) are configured to maintain within tolerances the nose line (300) forming a central module (301).
  • the central positioning and verification means (301A) configured to align the central module (301) with the alignment line L comprise an element selected between an alignment measurement aperture and a target.
  • a third aspect of the invention refers to a transport system for people/goods comprising:
