  Then, the lower end of the intrusion plate 50 protruding downward from the groove support plate 48 enters the groove 8 of the pallet 3.

(5) Usage method of cleaning device 10 Next, the usage method of the cleaning device 10 is demonstrated.

  First, as shown in FIG. 6, the operator loosens the butterfly bolts 46, 46 to increase the distance between the pair of left and right sandwich plates 28. At this time, the pair of left and right sandwich plates 28, 28 are hung from the front support bar 38 and the rear support bar 40, respectively, so that they do not fall even if the butterfly bolt 46 is loosened and separated.

  Second, the operator passes one side of the sheet 100 as the first sheet from the top to the bottom between the pair of left and right sandwiching plates 28, 28, and removes the sheet 100 hanging from the side from the side surface of the pressing member 26. The sheet 100 is rotated up to the bottom and lifted up again, and the lifted sheet 100 is pulled up again by passing between the pair of left and right sandwich plates 28 and 28.

  Thirdly, after the operator places the seat 100, the operator tightens the butterfly bolts 46 and 46 and fixes the seat 100 with the pair of left and right sandwich plates 28 and 28 so that the seat 100 does not fall. At this time, the upper and lower ends of the pair of left and right sandwich plates 28, 28 are bent outward to form flanges. Therefore, the sheet 100 can easily approach the pressing member 26 by the lower end flanges, and the upper end flanges. It is easy to spread from side to side.

  Fourth, as shown in FIG. 7, the worker loosens butterfly bolts 56 and 56 and attaches the sheet 102 as the second sheet. In this case, the operator places one of the sheets 102 between the groove support plate 48 and the intrusion plate 50, folds the suspended portion upward at the lower end of the intrusion plate 50, and enters the folded sheet 102. The plate is sandwiched between the plate 50 and the fixed plate 54 and pulled upward. As a result, the sheet 102 drawn upward is bent and disposed above and below the upper plate 52.

  Fifth, the operator fastens the butterfly bolts 56 and 56 to hold the sheet 102 between the groove support plate 48, the intrusion plate 50, and the fixed plate 54.

  Sixth, the operator removes one skirt guard 6 from the balustrade 4 and exposes the truss fixing member 16 in the truss 2 as shown in FIG.

  Seventh, the operator fixes the front fixing member 14 and the rear fixing member 20 of the main body 12 to the truss fixing member 16 with bolts 18 respectively. At this time, as shown in FIG. 6, the operator installs the sheet 100 positioned below the pressing member 26 so as to contact the demarcation line 9 of the pallet 3, and as shown in FIG. The sheet 102 disposed at the lower end of the entry plate 50 is installed so as to enter the groove 8 of the pallet 3.

  Eighth, the worker runs the pallet 3 in the front-rear direction. As a result, the sheet 100 below the pressing member 26 comes into contact with the surface of the demarcation line 9 and cleans the oil adhering to the surface of the demarcation line 9. Further, the oil adhering in the groove 8 is cleaned by the sheet 102 provided at the lower end of the intrusion plate 50.

(6) Effect According to this embodiment, even if oil adheres to the demarcation line 9 painted yellow and oil adheres to the groove 8, it can be removed by the sheet 100 and the sheet 102. In particular, the demarcation line 9 is conspicuous when oil adheres because it is painted yellow, but the oil can be surely removed by cleaning with the cleaning device 10.

  Further, since the cleaning device 10 is simply fixed to the truss fixing member 16 of the truss 2 with the bolts 18, it can be easily attached.

  Further, the structure in which the cleaning device 10 cleans the surface of the demarcation line 9 includes the pressing member 26 and a pair of left and right sandwich plates 28, 28. The structure is simple, and the operator can loosen the butterfly bolt 46. The seat 100 can be easily removed simply by tightening.

  In addition, the structure in which the cleaning device 10 cleans the groove 8 is simply composed of the intrusion plate 50, the fixing plate 54, and the groove support plate 48. By tightening or loosening the sheet 102, the sheet 102 can be easily removed.

  Even if the sheet 100 becomes dirty, the operator can perform the next cleaning operation only by loosening the butterfly bolt 46 and shifting the sheet 100 at a position corresponding to the pressing member 26.

  Even if the sheet 102 becomes dirty, the operator can perform the next cleaning operation only by loosening the butterfly bolt 56 and shifting the sheet 102 positioned at the lower end of the entry plate 50.

(7) Modification Example In the above embodiment, the structure for cleaning the groove 8 of the pallet 3 is provided, but the structure for cleaning the groove 8 is not provided, and the cleaning device 10 is pressed to clean the surface of the demarcation line 9. You may comprise only the member 26 and a pair of right and left pinching plates 28 and 28.

  In the above embodiment, the moving sidewalk 1 in which the pallet 3 travels horizontally has been described, but instead, the cleaning device 10 is attached to the truss of the escalator 10 to clean the escalator pallet (step, step). May be. In this case, however, the pallet is attached at a position where it travels horizontally.

  Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, this embodiment is presented as an example and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. These novel embodiments can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, replacements, and changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
