Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent generation of a gap in a connecting part of a footboard and a riser of an escalator at the time of a horizontal traveling, even if the connecting part is formed into a circular arc shape. <P>SOLUTION: First cleats 4 and second cleats 5 are alternately formed on upper surfaces of the footboards 2. In the risers 3, riser cleats 6 are formed. A riser side end part of the first cleat 4 is formed into a circular-arc part 4a, and an anti-riser side end part of the second cleat 5 is formed to be longer than that of an anti-riser side end part of the first cleat 4. When adjacent footboards 2 form the same plane, an extended part of the second cleat 5 is made to have a length located between the circular-arc parts 4a of the first cleat 4. As a result, the extended part of the second cleat 5 shields the circular-arc parts 4a of the first cleat 4. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

【0008】
図1及び図2において、エスカレーターの踏段1A,1Bは互いに隣接して無端状に連結されている。踏段1Aは水平に配置された踏板2と、この踏板2に接続されて湾曲下垂するライザ3とで構成され、ライザ3は隣接する踏段1Bの踏板2との間の段差部を形成している。踏板2には踏段1A,1Bの走行方向に沿う複数本の第1クリート4及び第2クリート5が交互に配置され、第1クリート4の一端(図1では左端)は円弧状部4aが形成され、他端(図1では右端)は垂直面となっている。
【0009】
第2クリート5の上面は第1クリート4の上面と一致し、その一端は第1クリート4の円弧終了部付近で垂直面となり、他端は第1クリート4の他端よりも突出して垂直面となっている。ライザ3には第1クリート4の円弧状部4aの下面から下方へ緩やかに湾曲して形成されたライザクリート6が形成されている。そして、踏段1Bの第1クリート4の他端はライザクリート6の前面に対応し、第2クリート5の他端はライザクリート6,6間に形成される溝内に挿入されてその溝底6aに対応している。なお、ライザクリート6,6間の溝の深さは、第1及び第2クリート4,5の溝の深さよりも深く形成されている。
【0010】
次に、踏段1A,1Bの走行中の各部の位置関係を図3及び図4を参照して説明する。

踏段1A,1Bが上階と下階の中間部を段差走行するときは、図3に示すように踏段1A,1Bに設けられたローラ8が、踏段レール(図示しない)に案内されることによりその位置が変位し、踏板2,2は異なる水平面を保持している。
【0011】
(2)水平走行時(図4)
踏段1A,1Bが上階又は下階の降り口に接近すると、図4に示すようにローラ8が踏段レールに案内されることによりその位置が変位し、踏段1Bの踏板2は次第に上昇する。このとき,踏段1Bの第1クリート4の他端はライザクリート6の前面に沿って上昇し、第2クリート5の他端はライザクリート6,6間の溝底6aに沿って上昇し、踏段1Bの踏板2は踏段1Aの踏板2と同一平面となる。このとき、踏段1Aの第1クリート4の円弧状部4aは、踏段1Bの第2クリート5の他端によって遮へいされる。
【0012】
このようにして、第1クリート4のライザ3側の端部を円弧状に形成し、第2クリート5の反ライザ3側の端部を長く形成して、隣接する踏板2,2が同一平面を形成したとき、第1クリート4の円弧状部4a,4a間に位置するようにしたため、踏板2とライザ3の接続部が鋭角となることを避けることが可能となるとともに、踏板2,2間が同一平面を形成したとき、上記接続部に生じるすき間7を緩和することが可能となる。
【0013】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したとおりこの発明では、踏板の上面に第1クリートと第2クリートを交互に形成し、第1クリートの一端を円弧状に形成し、第2クリートの両端部の内第1クリートの他端に対応する端部を隣接する踏板が同一平面を形成した状態で第1クリートの円弧状部間に位置する長さに形成したので、踏板とライザの接続部が鋭角となることを避けることができるとともに、踏板が同一平面を形成したとき、接続部に生じるすき間を緩和することができる。

[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the conventional escalator step device as described above, a protrusion is provided at the lower part of the riser cleat to prevent the passenger's foot from being caught between adjacent step plates (steps). The connection between the tread cleat and the riser cleat forms an acute angle, which may cause a laceration or the like to the passenger when contacting or falling. In addition, although it is conceivable that this portion is formed in an arc shape, there is a problem that when adjacent treads form the same plane, there is a possibility that a gap is generated between both steps, and limbs and clothes may be caught. .
[0005]
The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and provides an escalator step device in which the connection portion can be formed in an arc shape without generating a gap in the connection portion between the tread plate and the riser. For the purpose.

FIG. 4 is a side view of the step at the time of horizontal running, and the same reference numerals denote the same parts.
[0008]
1 and 2, escalator steps 1A and 1B are connected endlessly adjacent to each other. The step 1A is composed of a horizontally disposed step plate 2 and a riser 3 that is connected to the step plate 2 and hangs down. The riser 3 forms a step portion between the step plate 2 of the adjacent step 1B. . A plurality of first cleats 4 and second cleats 5 along the traveling direction of the steps 1A and 1B are alternately arranged on the tread plate 2, and one end (the left end in FIG. 1) of the first cleat 4 is formed with an arcuate portion 4a. The other end (the right end in FIG. 1) is a vertical surface.
[0009]
The upper surface of the second cleat 5 coincides with the upper surface of the first cleat 4, one end of which is a vertical surface near the end of the arc of the first cleat 4, and the other end protrudes from the other end of the first cleat 4 and is a vertical surface. It has become. The riser 3 is formed with a riser cleat 6 that is gently curved downward from the bottom surface of the arcuate portion 4a of the first cleat 4. The other end of the first cleat 4 of the step 1B corresponds to the front surface of the riser cleat 6, and the other end of the second cleat 5 is inserted into a groove formed between the riser cleats 6 and 6, and the groove bottom 6a. It corresponds to. The depth of the groove between the riser cleats 6 and 6 is formed deeper than the depth of the grooves of the first and second cleats 4 and 5.
[0010]
Next, the positional relationship of each part during travel of the steps 1A and 1B will be described with reference to FIGS.
(1) When traveling on steps (Figure 3)
When the steps 1A, 1B travel on a step between the upper floor and the lower floor, the rollers 8 provided on the steps 1A, 1B are guided by step rails (not shown) as shown in FIG. The position is displaced, and the treads 2 and 2 hold different horizontal surfaces.
[0011]
(2) During horizontal running (Figure 4)
When the steps 1A and 1B approach the exit on the upper floor or the lower floor, as shown in FIG. 4, the position of the roller 8 is displaced by being guided by the step rail, and the step board 2 of the step 1B gradually rises. At this time, the other end of the first cleat 4 of the step 1B rises along the front surface of the riser cleat 6, and the other end of the second cleat 5 rises along the groove bottom 6a between the riser cleats 6 and 6, The step board 2 of 1B becomes the same plane as the step board 2 of the step 1A. At this time, the arcuate portion 4a of the first cleat 4 of the step 1A is shielded by the other end of the second cleat 5 of the step 1B.
[0012]
In this way, the end of the first cleat 4 on the riser 3 side is formed in an arc shape, the end of the second cleat 5 on the side opposite to the riser 3 is formed long, and the adjacent treads 2 and 2 are flush with each other. Is formed between the arcuate portions 4a and 4a of the first cleat 4, it is possible to prevent the connecting portion between the tread plate 2 and the riser 3 from becoming an acute angle, and the tread plates 2, 2 When the gaps form the same plane, the gap 7 generated in the connecting portion can be relaxed.
