Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a moving footboard for passenger transportation coated with a tread film excellent in adhesion to a surface of a moving footboard, having gentle feeling in its appearance, and excellent in feeling to the sole of a foot and a noise absorbing property. SOLUTION: Plural recessed grooves 1c are formed in a top part 1aa of protruded ridge 1a in each of protrusions out of plural protrusions and recesses, and the top part 1aa and insides of the grooves 1c are coated by a tread film 1d comprising a synthetic resin material having a good joining property and a noise absorbing property, in the moving footboard 1A for passenger transportation turned with the plural recesses and protrusions along an advancing direction.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a movable tread for transporting passengers, and more particularly to an improvement in the configuration of the tread.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a moving tread for transporting passengers incorporated in an escalator or the like is provided with a colored synthetic resin material for alerting the tread surface (Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 62-194676).
There is known an example in which fine irregularities for preventing slippage of a shoe sole are formed on a thin metal plate (JP-A-1-308388).

[0003]

The coating structure made of the above-mentioned colored synthetic resin material is a crown structure formed by an adhesive or a casting method, and has a problem of peeling at all times. Was. On the other hand, the thin metal plate and its non-slip configuration have been subject to noise (metallic sound) disturbance due to walking impact and wiping of a cold image of metallic luster. And, in case of peeling, the synthetic resin material will cause a failure of the machine, and the exposure of the metal surface, for example, for carpet-type floor movement for not wearing shoes, the tactile feeling of the sole is poor,
It was not suitable for practical use.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a moving tread plate for transporting passengers, which has good adhesion to the surface of the moving tread plate, has a soft feeling in appearance, and is covered with a tread film having excellent tactile sensation and sound absorption. To provide.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention relates to a moving tread for passenger transportation which is turned with a number of uneven valleys along a traveling direction. On the top of the convex mountain, formed a number of concave grooves perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and the top and the concave grooves were covered with a tread film of a synthetic resin material having good bonding and sound absorbing properties. I do.

[0006]

As described above, the moving stepboard according to the present invention covers the top of the convex ridge and the inside of the concave groove thereof with good bonding properties (for example, urethane resin material). While the bonding (adhesion) strength increases as much as the area increases,
It is possible to provide a movable tread plate that has a strong softness in appearance, has a good tactile feel on the soles, and can absorb an impact sound.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a perspective view of an endlessly continuous moving passenger step 1 for transporting passengers according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line II of FIG. FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line II-II in FIG. The moving step 1 has an outer surface formed by a moving step board 1A on which a passenger rides and a riser board 1B closing the step, and the rotating car IC is rotated along the track body 2 while being connected by an endless chain (not shown). Let me. The moving tread 1A includes a convex ridge 1a and a concave valley 1b formed by a large number of concave and convex peaks and valleys along the traveling direction, and a fine pitch P (a few mm or more) perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the peak 1aa of the convex ridge 1a. A large number of concave grooves 1c (about 10 mm) (depth δ2) are formed, and a top surface 1aa is joined and covered with a tread film 1d having a film thickness δ1 and a film thickness δ2 corresponding to the film thickness δ2. The tread film 1d is itself bonded (adhered) with a urethane resin material or a silicon resin material.
A material having power, flexibility, and sound absorbing properties is used, which is coated on the moving tread 1A by a method of being closely adhered and polymerized to all the convex ridges 1a. In this case, the tread film 1d is the top 1a.
In addition to a, the presence of the concave groove 1c increases the bonding strength by the increase in the surface (bonding) area, and the concave groove 1c also improves the bite of the tread film 1d against it, and acts on the strength increasing side. Further, since the tread film 1d is made of a synthetic resin material, the tread film 1d has a softer appearance than the exposure of the convex ridge 1a, and the tactile surface of the sole of the passenger is improved without a sense of incongruity, and a sound absorbing effect is exhibited. Further, the tread film 1d can arbitrarily adopt a color tone in consideration of aesthetics and safety by taking advantage of the coloring property which is a characteristic of the synthetic resin material.

[0008]

As described above, the moving tread plate of the present invention has a good adhesion, has a soft appearance, has a surface structure excellent in passenger touch and sound absorption, and is suitable for passenger transportation. Becomes
