Definitions

  • each step comprises a riser, a tread, a hinge connecting the riser and the tread, a tow roller, and at least a first supporting point and a second supporting point on each side of the step, wherein at the first supporting point the step is connected to the step chain. Further, each step is configured to be folded via the hinge at least during a turnaround in the transition area.
  • the invention relates to a conveying system of an escalator and a process to turnaround a step within a conveying system.
  • An escalator as known from the state of the art comprises a lower transition area at the lower end of the escalator, an upper transition area at the upper end of the escalator and a transporting area in between the lower and the upper transition area, wherein in the transition areas the steps of the escalator are turned around.
  • the escalator requires a pit of approximately 1 meter in depth.
  • the EP 1 072 552 A1 discloses a conveying system constructed to reduce the depth of the pit in the lower transition area and the upper transition area of an escalator. Thereat, the steps of the conveying system are folded. In the transition areas, the steps are not turned around but guided in a way, that at any position the tread of a step faces upwards. By doing so, the depth of the pit can be reduced, but by guiding the steps in a way, that the tread of a step always faces upwards leads to an enormous increasing of the length of the pit.
  • the objective task of the invention is to provide a conveying system for an escalator to reduce the depth of the pit of an escalator without increasing the length of the pit.

Further, each step comprises a tow roller, at least a first supporting point, and a second supporting point on each side of the step. At the first supporting point, the step is configured to be connected to a step chain of the escalator. Further, each step is configured to be folded via the hinge at least during a turnaround in a transition area of the escalator.
  • the riser of each step comprises at least a curved sliding guide to guide the riser in a predetermined curve while folding the step, especially while folding the step during the turnaround.
  • the tow roller is adjusted to the step at the second supporting point the step. Via the tow roller, the step is guided circulating along a tow roller guide of the conveying system.
  • the step is configured to be connected to the step chain in a fixed manner at the first supporting point.
  • each step comprises a third supporting point.
