DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a passenger conveyor curing device used when a passenger conveyor is installed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, when installing a passenger conveyor, the entire passenger conveyor is covered with a curing material in order to prevent the passenger conveyor from being damaged by dust or the like generated during the installation work.

[0003] Conventionally, among the above-mentioned passenger conveyors,
In particular, as a method of curing a pair of balustrades having panels that are erected on both sides of the steps, a curing sheet such as a vinyl sheet is placed on the balustrade, and both sides of the curing sheet are hung from this balustrade. There was something.

[0004]

However, in the above-mentioned prior art, since the balustrade is merely covered with a curing sheet such as a vinyl sheet, the curing sheet is displaced by the force of walking on the steps. If a pair of handrails that are movably mounted on the balustrade or the top of the balustrade are exposed, and a drop of fireball due to dust or welding occurs, the fallen object collides with the balustrade panel or handrail. There was concern that it would cause damage.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of such a situation in the prior art, and a first object of the present invention is to prevent displacement of a curing sheet caused by walking on steps when installing a passenger conveyor, and to prevent the falling object from falling. It is an object of the present invention to provide a passenger conveyor curing device capable of preventing a handrail from being damaged by the above.

A second object of the present invention is to provide a passenger conveyor curing device which is capable of preventing the curing sheet from being displaced and being damaged by falling objects, and having excellent portability and storage characteristics.

[0007]

In order to achieve the first object, the invention according to claim 1 of the present invention comprises a plurality of steps connected endlessly, and a plurality of steps set up on both sides of the plurality of steps. In a passenger conveyor curing device provided with a pair of balustrades having a panel and a pair of handrails movably mounted on the upper ends of these balustrades, the pair of handrails and the surface of the step are provided. A curing sheet disposed to cover each of the curing sheets, and a handrail curing section having a flameproof property for engaging the handrail from above the curing sheet by applying a squeezing pressure over substantially the entire area in the longitudinal direction so as to cover the surface of the handrail. It consists of.

In the invention according to the first aspect of the present invention, the handrail has a flameproof property that is engaged by applying a squeezing pressure over substantially the entire area in the longitudinal direction so as to cover the surface of the handrail. Since the curing section is provided, it is possible to prevent the curing sheet from shifting due to walking on the steps.

Further, since it has flameproofing properties, it is possible to prevent damage to the panel or handrail of the balustrade due to a drop of a fireball caused by welding.

In order to achieve the second object, the invention according to claim 2 of the present invention is characterized in that the handrail curing section covers the surface of the handrail so as to cover the entire surface of the handrail substantially in the longitudinal direction. A flameproof and flexible handrail cover that engages with the handrail cover, and is attached to the handrail cover at substantially equal intervals in its longitudinal direction, and engages with the handrail with clamping force. And a substantially C-shaped cover holder.

In the invention according to claim 2 of the present invention, the handrail cover has flame resistance and flexibility. Therefore, after installation of the passenger conveyor is completed, the handrail cover is substantially C-shaped.
By stacking the letter-shaped cover holders, compactness can be achieved, the storage space can be reduced, and portability can be improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of a passenger conveyor curing device of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram of a passenger conveyor curing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a vertical sectional view of a main part of a passenger conveyor for explaining the curing device of the present embodiment. FIG. 3 is an overall perspective view of the passenger conveyor.

The passenger conveyor shown in FIG.
a and extends obliquely between the lower entrance 1b,
A plurality of steps 2 connected endlessly between the upper entrance 1a and the lower entrance 1b are designed to rotate.

As shown in FIG. 2, a pair of left and right balustrades 3 are provided on both sides of the step 2 along the moving direction of the step 2, and a handrail 4 is movably mounted on the upper end of the balustrade 3. Have been. A guide rail (not shown) for guiding the balustrade 3 and the steps 2 is supported by the frame 5.

The balustrade 3 includes a panel 6 erected on both sides of the step 2, a skirt guard 7 and an inner deck member 8, and an outer deck member 9 covering the outside of the panel 6.

A curing sheet 10 is provided so as to cover the surfaces of the handrail 4 and the steps 2. A flameproof and flexible handrail curing unit 12 is provided which engages by applying a squeezing force from almost above the sheet 10 arranged so as to cover the surface of the handrail 4 in the longitudinal direction thereof. Have been.

The handrail curing section 12 includes a handrail cover 12a which engages to cover the entire surface of the handrail 4 in the longitudinal direction, and a handrail cover 12a.
Cover holder 12 having a substantially C-shape so that
a are attached at substantially equal intervals in the longitudinal direction.

In this embodiment, one end of the curing sheet 10 is first covered on the handrail 4, and is disposed so as to cover the balustrade 3 and the surface of the steps 2. Cover. The handrail cover 12 is extended in the longitudinal direction, and the cover holders 12a are set at substantially equal intervals. Then, as shown in FIG. 1, the mouth of the holding body 12a is opened, and the handrail cover 12 is covered over the entire length between the upper entrance 1a and the lower entrance 1b on the handrail 4 covered with the curing sheet 10.

In the embodiment configured as described above, the displacement of the curing sheet 10 due to walking on the steps 2 covered with the curing sheet 10 can be prevented.

In this embodiment, since the handrail cover 12 has flame resistance and flexibility,
Damage to the handrail 4 due to welding or the like at the time of installation can be prevented, and after the work is completed, the substantially C-shaped cover holding body 12a is opened, removed from the handrail 4, and the cover holding body 12a is overlaid to extend in the longitudinal direction. And the storage space can be reduced.

[0022]

As described above, according to the first aspect of the present invention, even when walking on the steps covered with the curing sheet, the handrail cover covered with the handrail surface is provided. Accordingly, there is an effect that the curing sheet does not shift and damage due to a falling object at the time of installation can be prevented.

According to the invention of claim 2 of the present invention, the handrail cover is provided with a substantially C-shaped cover holder which engages the handrail with a clamping force. Therefore, it can be easily attached to and detached from the handrail, and the storage space can be reduced by stacking the cover holders.
