この図4では乗客コンベアの一例としてエスカレータ、例えば下りエスカレータが示されている。このエスカレータから成る乗客コンベア22は、上階の床下と下階の床下に埋め込まれるとともに、その間に掛け渡されたフレーム23を備えている。また、上階の床下に設けられた図示しない駆動装置により回転されるスプロケット24と、下階の床下に設けられた従動スプロケット25と、これらのスプロケット24,25に巻き掛けられる図示しない無端状のチェーンと、このチェーンに設けられ乗客を乗せて移動する複数のステップ26とを備えている。   In FIG. 4, an escalator such as a descending escalator is shown as an example of a passenger conveyor. The passenger conveyor 22 made of this escalator is provided with a frame 23 which is embedded under the upper floor and the lower floor, and is stretched between them. Further, a sprocket 24 rotated by a driving device (not shown) provided under the upper floor, a driven sprocket 25 provided under the lower floor, and an endless shape (not shown) wound around these sprockets 24 and 25.

また、ステップ26の両側には、ステップ26の進行方向に平行となるように配置された無端状の移動手摺り15が設けられ、ステップ26上に載った乗客がこの移動手摺り15を把持することができるようになっている。移動手摺り15はターミナルギヤ27によって駆動される。ターミナルギヤ27は、図示しない駆動装置によって回転する上述のスプロケット24とチェーン28により同期回転可能に構成されている。これにより、移動手摺り15とステップ26は、同じ速度で駆動される。すなわち、移動手摺り15とステップ26とは同期して移動する。本発明の診断対象の移動手摺り15の内部には、後述するスチールコード16が埋設されている。   In addition, an endless moving handrail 15 arranged so as to be parallel to the traveling direction of Step 26 is provided on both sides of Step 26, and a passenger placed on Step 26 holds the moving handrail 15. Be able to. The moving handrail 15 is driven by a terminal gear 27. The terminal gear 27 is configured to be synchronously rotated by the sprocket 24 and the chain 28 that are rotated by a driving device (not shown). Thereby, the moving handrail 15 and the step 26 are driven at the same speed. That is, the moving handrail 15 and the step 26 move in synchronization. A steel cord 16 to be described later is embedded in the movable handrail 15 to be diagnosed of the present invention.

図1,2は、本発明の一実施形態にかかる移動手摺り劣化診断装置の説明図で、図1は側面図、図2は背面図である。   1 and 2 are explanatory diagrams of a moving handrail deterioration diagnosis apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 1 is a side view, and FIG. 2 is a rear view.

図1に示す本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aは、移動手摺り15に放射線すなわちX線を照射する放射線照射部であるX線源1と、移動手摺り15を透過したX線を受光する放射線受光部29とを備えている。放射線受光部29は、例えばシンチレーター2とカメラ3により構成されており、X線を受けて発光したシンチレーター2を鏡を用いてカメラ3で撮影する構成となっている。   The moving handrail deterioration diagnosis apparatus A of the present embodiment shown in FIG. 1 uses an X-ray source 1 that is a radiation irradiating unit that irradiates the moving handrail 15 with radiation, that is, X-rays, and X-rays transmitted through the moving handrail 15. And a radiation receiving unit 29 for receiving light. The radiation receiving unit 29 includes, for example, a scintillator 2 and a camera 3, and has a configuration in which the scintillator 2 that emits light upon receiving X-rays is photographed by the camera 3 using a mirror.

また、本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aは、X線源1を間隔変更部10及び高さ変更部6を介してスライドレール付き支柱5に接続している。スライドレール付き支柱5の下方には支持台30が接続され、支持台30の下面側には複数のストッパー付キャスタ12が設けられている。また、支持台30の上面側にはX線源1から照射されるX線の発生を制御するX線制御装置11が載置されている。   Moreover, the moving handrail deterioration diagnostic apparatus A of this embodiment connects the X-ray source 1 to the column 5 with a slide rail via the interval changing unit 10 and the height changing unit 6. A support base 30 is connected below the column 5 with slide rails, and a plurality of casters 12 with stoppers are provided on the lower surface side of the support base 30. An X-ray control device 11 that controls generation of X-rays emitted from the X-ray source 1 is placed on the upper surface side of the support base 30.

上述した間隔変更部10は、X線源1を支持する支持部10aと、放射線受光部29と接続され、支持部10aに設けられた挿通穴に挿通された支持支柱10bと、支持部10aと支持支柱10bとを固定する固定ネジ10cとを含んでいる。したがって、固定ネジ10cを緩めることにより支持支柱10bが支持部10aの挿通穴に対して相対的に移動し、X線源1と放射線受光部29との間隔を所望の間隔に設定できる。   The interval changing unit 10 described above is connected to the support unit 10a that supports the X-ray source 1, the radiation receiving unit 29, the support column 10b that is inserted through the insertion hole provided in the support unit 10a, and the support unit 10a. It includes a fixing screw 10c for fixing the support column 10b. Accordingly, by loosening the fixing screw 10c, the support column 10b moves relative to the insertion hole of the support portion 10a, and the interval between the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving portion 29 can be set to a desired interval.

また、上述した高さ変更部6は、ハンドル6aを操作することによりスライドレール付き支柱5のスライドレール上を摺動させることができる。この高さ変更部6の高さを変更することによって、X線源1及び放射線受光部29の高さ位置を変更することができる。   Moreover, the height change part 6 mentioned above can be slid on the slide rail of the support | pillar 5 with a slide rail by operating the handle 6a. By changing the height of the height changing unit 6, the height positions of the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 can be changed.

さらに、高さ変更部6と間隔変更部10は、角度変更部31を介して接続されている。角度変更部31は、X線源1及び放射線受光部29の垂直方向の変更、すなわち図1の矢印で示すように仰角を変更させる垂直回転軸7と、この垂直回転軸7の回転を固定して、回転角を固定する垂直回転軸固定ネジ8を備えている。また、角度変更部31は、X線源1及び放射線受光部29を水平方向、すなわち図2に示す矢印の方向に回転させる水平回転軸17と、この水平回転軸17の回転を固定して、回転角を固定する水平回転軸固定ネジ9(図1に図示)を備えている。   Further, the height changing unit 6 and the interval changing unit 10 are connected via an angle changing unit 31. The angle changing unit 31 fixes the vertical rotation of the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29, that is, the vertical rotation shaft 7 that changes the elevation angle as indicated by the arrow in FIG. 1 and the rotation of the vertical rotation shaft 7. And a vertical rotation shaft fixing screw 8 for fixing the rotation angle. The angle changing unit 31 fixes the horizontal rotation shaft 17 that rotates the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 in the horizontal direction, that is, the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. 2, and the rotation of the horizontal rotation shaft 17. A horizontal rotation shaft fixing screw 9 (shown in FIG. 1) for fixing the rotation angle is provided.

本実施形態にかかる劣化診断装置Aを用いて移動手摺り15の劣化診断を行う際には、映像データを蓄積し解析処理するパソコン14を配置し、カメラ3とパソコン14を映像を伝送する映像ケーブル13によって接続するようにしている。   When performing deterioration diagnosis of the moving handrail 15 using the deterioration diagnosis apparatus A according to the present embodiment, a personal computer 14 for storing and analyzing video data is disposed, and a video for transmitting video between the camera 3 and the personal computer 14 is disposed. Connection is made by a cable 13.

このように構成された移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aによって移動手摺り15及びこの移動手摺り15に埋設されたスチールコード16を観察する際に、本実施形態を、図4に示す湾曲部15a,15b,15c付近に設置することが行われる。以下、例えば湾曲部15a付近に、本実施形態にかかる移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aを設置して劣化診断する場合の手順について説明する。   When observing the moving handrail 15 and the steel cord 16 embedded in the moving handrail 15 by the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis device A configured as described above, the present embodiment is changed to the bending portion 15a, FIG. Installation in the vicinity of 15b and 15c is performed. Hereinafter, for example, a procedure in the case where the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis apparatus A according to the present embodiment is installed near the bending portion 15a to perform deterioration diagnosis will be described.

本実施形態で診断される移動手摺り15は、湾曲部15a,15bを境にして上面側では、ステップ26の移動方向と同じ方向に移動する。また、移動手摺り15は、湾曲部15a,15bを境にして下面側では図示しないデッキベースの内部に引き入れられ、ステップ26の移動方向と反対方向に移動する。   The moving handrail 15 diagnosed in the present embodiment moves in the same direction as the moving direction of step 26 on the upper surface side with the curved portions 15a and 15b as a boundary. Further, the moving handrail 15 is drawn into the inside of a deck base (not shown) on the lower surface side with the curved portions 15 a and 15 b as a boundary, and moves in the direction opposite to the moving direction of the step 26.

本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aの設置のための準備作業として、まず、X線源1と放射線受光部29のシンチレーター2の間に、移動手摺り15の湾曲部15aが入るように、あらかじめX線源1と放射線受光部29の間の距離や高さを、高さ変更部6及び間隔変更部10を操作して調整する。   As a preparatory work for installing the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis apparatus A of the present embodiment, first, the curved portion 15 a of the moving handrail 15 is inserted between the X-ray source 1 and the scintillator 2 of the radiation receiving unit 29. The distance and height between the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 are adjusted in advance by operating the height changing unit 6 and the interval changing unit 10.

移動手摺り15の劣化診断をする際には、本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aのキャスタ12のストッパーを外し、移動手摺り15の湾曲部15aの観察したい部位を観察できるようにこの劣化診断装置Aの位置を決める。位置が決定したらキャスタ12のストッパーで位置を固定する。さらに、高さ変更部6、間隔変更部10、及び角度変更部31等を操作して、観察したい部位に合わせて、X線源1と放射線受光部29のシンチレーター2とが適正な位置となるように微調整を行う。この微調整により、X線源1からシンチレーター2に向かって照射されX線の方向は、図1に示した透写X線の方向4のようになる。   When diagnosing the deterioration of the moving handrail 15, the stopper of the caster 12 of the moving handrail deterioration diagnosing apparatus A of the present embodiment is removed so that the portion to be observed of the curved portion 15 a of the moving handrail 15 can be observed. The position of the deterioration diagnosis apparatus A is determined. When the position is determined, the position is fixed by the stopper of the caster 12. Furthermore, the X-ray source 1 and the scintillator 2 of the radiation receiving unit 29 are at appropriate positions by operating the height changing unit 6, the interval changing unit 10, the angle changing unit 31, and the like according to the site to be observed. Make fine adjustments. By this fine adjustment, the direction of X-rays irradiated from the X-ray source 1 toward the scintillator 2 becomes the transmitted X-ray direction 4 shown in FIG.

上述のようにX線源1と放射線受光部29をセットした状態では、X線源1は移動手摺り15の湾曲部15aの一方側に、放射線受光部29はX線源1が配置されたのと同一面側の湾曲部15aの他方側に、湾曲部15aを間に挟んで配置されることになる。また、本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aは、上述のように湾曲部15aをX線源1と放射線受光部29の間に挟んだ状態で劣化診断を行う。なお、本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aの操作に際しては、図2に示すように、鉛または鉛ゴムで作られた漏洩X線遮蔽部18でX線源1及び放射線受光部29を含む主要部の全体を覆うことが行われる。   In the state where the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 are set as described above, the X-ray source 1 is arranged on one side of the curved portion 15a of the moving handrail 15 and the X-ray source 1 is arranged on the radiation receiving unit 29. The curved portion 15a is disposed on the other side of the curved portion 15a on the same plane as the above. Moreover, the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis apparatus A according to the present embodiment performs the deterioration diagnosis in a state where the bending portion 15a is sandwiched between the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving portion 29 as described above. In the operation of the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis apparatus A of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the X-ray source 1 and the radiation light receiving unit 29 are connected by a leaky X-ray shielding unit 18 made of lead or lead rubber. Covering the entire main part including it is performed.

図3は本実施形態にかかる移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aにより撮影された移動手摺りの透写画像を示す図である。   FIG. 3 is a view showing a transparent image of the moving handrail photographed by the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis apparatus A according to the present embodiment.

この図3に示すように、本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aによって撮影された透写画像、すなわち透写したスチールコード19や、このスチールコード19の劣化によって生じた素線21の透写画像がパソコン14に写し出される。   As shown in FIG. 3, a transparent image photographed by the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis apparatus A of the present embodiment, that is, a transparent steel cord 19, and a transparent wire 21 caused by the deterioration of the steel cord 19 are transmitted. The copied image is displayed on the personal computer 14.

作業者は、パソコン14に写し出された透写画像を確認しながら、透写X線の方向4が移動手摺り埋設スチールコード16と重なる位置でX線源1と放射線受光部29との間隔を変更する間隔変更部10を調節する。このとき、X線源1及び放射線受光部29の間隔は、できるだけ近づけるようにする。   While confirming the transmission image projected on the personal computer 14, the operator sets the interval between the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 at a position where the direction 4 of the transmission X-ray overlaps the moving handrail embedded steel cord 16. The interval changing unit 10 to be changed is adjusted. At this time, the distance between the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 is made as close as possible.

なお、移動手摺り埋設スチールコード16は、素線と呼ばれる細い針金の数本が撚り合わされてストランドというやや太い針金となり、このストランドが数本さらに撚り合わされて構成されている。このように構成されるスチールコード16を本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aで透写したものが、図3に示されるスチールコード19である。本実施形態では乗客コンベア22の移動手摺り15を、乗り場の折り返し先端部分の移動手摺り埋設スチールコード16が曲がり山なりの状態となったところで透写する。透写したスチールコード19が劣化している場合、ばらばらになった素線が、図3の素線21のように写るので、判定箇所20においてその様子が観察しやすい。   The moving handrail-embedded steel cord 16 is formed by twisting several thin wires called strands into a slightly thick wire called a strand, and twisting several strands. A steel cord 19 configured as described above is a steel cord 19 shown in FIG. In the present embodiment, the moving handrail 15 of the passenger conveyor 22 is copied when the moving handrail-embedded steel cord 16 at the front end portion of the landing is bent and mountain-like. When the steel cord 19 that has been seen through is deteriorated, the separated strands are copied like the strands 21 in FIG.

本実施形態は、移動手摺り15に接触させずに撮影することができるため、乗客コンベア22を稼働させながらX線動画を撮影することが可能である。さらに、判定箇所20においてばらばらとなった素線が、図3の素線21のように観察された場合には、X線源1及び放射線受光部29の全体を垂直回転軸7を中心に垂直方向に回転させたり、水平回転軸17を中心に水平方向に回転させて撮影することでその部位のみを詳細に検査することも可能である。すなわち、所望の位置で静止画を撮影することにより、さらに劣化状態を詳しく観察することができる。   In the present embodiment, since it is possible to take an image without contacting the moving handrail 15, it is possible to take an X-ray moving image while operating the passenger conveyor 22. Further, when the separated strands at the determination point 20 are observed as the strand 21 in FIG. 3, the entire X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 are vertically centered around the vertical rotation axis 7. It is also possible to inspect only the part in detail by rotating in the direction or rotating in the horizontal direction around the horizontal rotation shaft 17 and photographing. That is, by taking a still image at a desired position, the deterioration state can be further observed in detail.

本実施形態は、上述のようにX線源1と放射線受光部29は、湾曲部15aにおけるスチールコード16の頂部を照射可能に配置してある。湾曲部15aの頂部では、スチールコード16が最外層に位置する。そのため、この位置を観察することで、スチールコード16が他の部材と重なって透写されることが防止される。これにより診断精度を向上することが可能となる。   In the present embodiment, as described above, the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 are arranged so as to be able to irradiate the top portion of the steel cord 16 in the bending portion 15a. At the top of the curved portion 15a, the steel cord 16 is positioned in the outermost layer. Therefore, by observing this position, it is possible to prevent the steel cord 16 from being overlapped with another member and being seen through. This makes it possible to improve diagnostic accuracy.

また、このような観点から、X線源1と放射線受光部29を移動手摺り15にセットする際には、湾曲部15aにおけるスチールコード16の頂部を観察可能にセットするのが好ましい。   From this point of view, when setting the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 on the moving handrail 15, it is preferable to set the top of the steel cord 16 in the bending portion 15a so as to be observable.

また、本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aは、X線源1と放射線受光部29の間隔を変更する間隔変更部10を備え、湾曲部15aの形状に対応して間隔変更部10によってX線源1と放射線受光部29の間隔を調整可能なので、X線源1と放射線受光部29との間隔は上述のようにできる限り近づけることにより、少ないX線出力で透写画像を得られるようにすることができる。これにより、診断時にX線が外部に漏えいするリスクを低減することができ、また、万一漏洩してしまっても外部への影響を大幅に低減できる。また、作業者の安全も確保しやすくなる。さらにこのような構成により、さまざまな形態の乗客コンベアに適用しやすくなる。   Moreover, the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis apparatus A of the present embodiment includes the interval changing unit 10 that changes the interval between the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29, and the interval changing unit 10 corresponds to the shape of the bending portion 15a. Since the interval between the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 can be adjusted, a transmission image can be obtained with a small X-ray output by making the interval between the X-ray source 1 and the radiation receiving unit 29 as close as possible as described above. Can be. Thereby, the risk of X-rays leaking to the outside during diagnosis can be reduced, and even if they leak, the influence on the outside can be greatly reduced. Moreover, it becomes easy to ensure the safety of the operator. Furthermore, such a configuration facilitates application to various forms of passenger conveyors.

以上説明したように、本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aは、乗客コンベア22の移動手摺り15の湾曲部分15aに沿ってX線を照射させるので、移動手摺り15を取り外すことなく移動手摺り15の透写、すなわち劣化診断を行うことができ、X線源1及び放射線受光部29を含む当該劣化診断装置Aの設置が簡単となる。さらに、X線源1と放射線受光部29との間隔を、劣化診断可能に設置した状態で最少となるように配置状態を調整することができるので、X線出力を少なくすることができ、漏洩X線量を抑えることが可能となる。   As described above, the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis device A according to the present embodiment irradiates the X-ray along the curved portion 15a of the moving handrail 15 of the passenger conveyor 22, and thus moves without removing the moving handrail 15. The transmission of the handrail 15, that is, deterioration diagnosis can be performed, and the installation of the deterioration diagnosis apparatus A including the X-ray source 1 and the radiation light receiving unit 29 is simplified. Furthermore, since the arrangement state can be adjusted so that the interval between the X-ray source 1 and the radiation light receiving unit 29 is minimized in the state where the deterioration diagnosis is possible, the X-ray output can be reduced and leakage It becomes possible to suppress the X-ray dose.

また、本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aは、X線による透写時には移動手摺り15に埋設していたスチールコード16を曲げた状態で透写するので、スチールコード16が劣化してばらばらとなり素線となったものを的確に観察することができる。   In addition, the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis apparatus A according to the present embodiment transmits the steel cord 16 embedded in the moving handrail 15 in a bent state during the X-ray transmission, so that the steel cord 16 deteriorates. It is possible to observe exactly what has been broken and becomes a strand.

なお、本実施形態では、乗客コンベアとしてエスカレータを例に挙げて説明したが、本発明はこれに限られるものではなく、動く歩道などの乗客コンベア全般に適用することができる。   In the present embodiment, an escalator has been described as an example of a passenger conveyor. However, the present invention is not limited to this and can be applied to general passenger conveyors such as moving walkways.

また、本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aを、湾曲部15aの付近に設置して移動手摺り15の劣化診断を行う例を挙げたが、図4に示す湾曲部15bの付近に設置する構成にしてもよい。このように構成したものも、移動手摺り15を乗客コンベア22から取外すことなく正確な劣化診断を行うことができる。すなわち、上述した実施形態における作用効果と同様の作用効果を得ることができる。また、設置手順なども同様の手順とすることができる。   Moreover, although the example in which the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis device A of the present embodiment is installed in the vicinity of the bending portion 15a to perform the deterioration diagnosis of the moving handrail 15 has been given, it is installed in the vicinity of the bending portion 15b shown in FIG. You may make it the structure to carry out. Even those configured in this way can perform accurate deterioration diagnosis without removing the moving handrail 15 from the passenger conveyor 22. That is, the same effect as the effect in embodiment mentioned above can be acquired. Also, the installation procedure can be the same procedure.

さらに、図4に示す湾曲部15cの付近に本実施形態の移動手摺り劣化診断装置Aを設置して劣化診断を行うようにしてもよい。この場合には、当該劣化診断装置Aの形態を変更する必要があるが、このような湾曲部15cに取付けることができれば、移動手摺り15のデッキベース内にX線源1を収納することができる。このため、X線の漏洩を防止することができ、必要があれば乗客へのサービスを停止しなくても移動手摺り15の劣化診断が可能となる。   Furthermore, the deterioration diagnosis may be performed by installing the moving handrail deterioration diagnosis device A of the present embodiment in the vicinity of the bending portion 15c shown in FIG. In this case, it is necessary to change the form of the deterioration diagnosis apparatus A. However, if it can be attached to such a curved portion 15c, the X-ray source 1 can be stored in the deck base of the movable handrail 15. it can. For this reason, leakage of X-rays can be prevented, and deterioration diagnosis of the moving handrail 15 can be performed without stopping the service to passengers if necessary.

なお、本発明は上述した実施形態に限定されるものではなく、様々な変形態様が含まれる。例えば上述した実施形態は本発明を分かりやすく説明するために詳細に説明したものであり、本発明は、必ずしも説明した全ての構成を備えるものに限定されるものではない。   In addition, this invention is not limited to embodiment mentioned above, Various deformation | transformation aspects are included.
