Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an entrance/exit device for a passenger conveyor such as an escalator or an electric road.

[Conventional technology]

Generally, a passenger conveyor is provided with a doorway cover that covers a machine room of the conveyor. Since such entrance/exit covers are installed at the entrance, which is a place where many people come and go, they are usually made of steel plates such as stainless steel, and also take into consideration the prevention of slip-and-fall accidents caused by passengers. A doorway cover made of a stainless steel plate with an uneven pattern formed on its surface is widely known.
In addition, doorway covers with anti-slip measures include those made of stainless steel plate etched with corrosive liquid to form unevenness, and
As shown in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 55-18236, it has been previously proposed to form irregularities on a stainless steel plate by press working.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, forming irregularities by etching a stainless steel plate with a corrosive liquid not only causes secondary pollution but also is inefficient because it involves loss of material. On the other hand, in order to press a stainless steel plate to form irregularities, an expensive dedicated press machine is required, which inevitably increases costs. In addition, all of these conventional techniques have the disadvantage that forming the unevenness requires a great deal of labor.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an entrance/exit device for a passenger conveyor that is free from pollution and cost increases, is easy to manufacture, and has an excellent design.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, in a passenger conveyor entrance/exit device in which an entrance/exit cover covering a machine room is provided at the entrance/exit of a passenger conveyor, the entrance/exit cover is replaced with a flat non-slip surface displaying desired information. This is achieved by comprising a body and a thin steel plate provided with a recess for storing the anti-slip body.

[Effect]

That is, according to the above means, by installing the anti-slip body on which desired information is displayed on the thin steel plate, there is no need to form irregularities on the surface of the thin steel plate. If you use rubber mats, you can choose any color and pattern you want.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

FIG. 1 is a schematic top view showing an embodiment of the entrance/exit device according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a front sectional view of the entrance/exit cover shown in FIG. A movable handrail 3 located on the upper part of a handrail (not shown) erected on both sides of the steps 1 is a doorway cover. This entrance/exit cover 3 is constructed by placing a non-slip body 5 on a thin steel plate 4, and the position of this non-slip body 5 is regulated by a protrusion 4a around the thin steel plate 4 to prevent it from shifting. There is. Further, this anti-slip body 5 is composed of a mat portion 5a having excellent anti-slip effect and wear resistance, and a rubber reinforcing portion 5b for reinforcing this mat portion 5a. Desired information such as sales floor guide 6a, driving direction 6b, and floor name 6c is displayed. In addition, the code|symbol 7 is a comb board provided at the front-end|tip of the entrance/exit cover 3, and 8 is a machine room frame which supports the entrance/exit cover 3.

In this way, by constructing the entrance/exit cover 3 by using the thin steel plate 4 and the anti-slip body 5 in combination, there is no need to take the trouble to form irregularities on the surface of the thin steel plate 4. The problems associated with etching and press working, such as the generation of pollution, increased costs, and increased work labor, are solved. In addition, the anti-slip effect of the anti-slip body 5 can be greatly improved compared to the case where unevenness is formed on the steel plate, and furthermore, the cushioning effect of the anti-slip body 5 prevents the customer from falling. Even if you drop your luggage, the damage will be minimal. In addition, anti-slip body 5
Since it is easy to color and process, it is possible to display desired information, providing convenience for users, and it is also possible to select any color or pattern, improving the design.

In the above embodiment, the anti-slip body 5 is composed of the mat portion 5a and the rubber reinforcing portion 5b, but for example, a rubber mat or carpet may be used alone as the anti-slip body.

[Effect of idea]

As explained above, according to the present invention, the doorway cover is constructed by installing the anti-slip body on which desired information is displayed on the thin steel plate, so that the work of forming irregularities on the surface of the thin steel plate is eliminated. This eliminates the need for such equipment, which eliminates concerns about pollution and increased costs, improves work efficiency, and further improves convenience for users and design.
