JPH0565977U - Passenger conveyor intermediate entrance / exit - Google Patents

Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To provide an entrance / exit of a passenger conveyor for further improving service without impairing safety. [Composition] Since the combs 4 provided at both ends of the traveling path of the step 1 of the intermediate entrance / exit D can be the same as those attached to the upper entrance / exit entrance C and the lower entrance / exit entrance B, the structure itself is also the same. Getting on and off at the middle entrance D is smooth.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a passenger conveyor such as an escalator or an electric road, and more particularly to a boarding / alighting gate suitable for providing a boarding / alighting service at an arbitrary floor of a passenger or at an arbitrary place.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Conventionally, there is known an escalator with an intermediate horizontal road, which is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-143895 and which can eliminate passenger's anxiety with a visual aspect. This intermediate horizontal road is used for the safe use of the escalator that is used by an unspecified number of users.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The conventional technology has a drawback that it hinders service because it is not possible to get on and off in the middle of an escalator with a large head difference and an electric road with a long distance between entrances and exits.

An object of the present invention is to provide an entrance / exit for further improving serviceability without impairing safety.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The above object is achieved by providing an entrance / exit in the middle of the stepping direction of the passenger conveyor.

Further, by providing the combs at both ends of the traveling path of the step of the intermediate entrance / exit, safety at the time of getting on / off can be secured.

[0007]

[Action]

 The above-mentioned intermediate entrance / exit is provided on either one of the left and right balustrades of the horizontal road part of the passenger conveyor, and the width is approximately half of the width of the step.Passengers who do not use this entrance / exit enter the other half of the step. It is possible to move while standing. On the other hand, since the entrance and exit are separate, the passengers are not concentrated in one part, and can be used in the same way as a general passenger conveyor entrance and exit.

[0008] An intermediate handrail that moves in the same direction as the step of guiding a passenger when getting on and off is provided on the other half of the step of the intermediate entrance / exit. Further, combs are provided at both ends of the traveling path of the step at the intermediate entrance / exit, and the combs engage with irregularities on the surface of the step to protect the feet of passengers both in the ascending and descending directions.

[0009]

【Example】

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

In the figure, an endlessly connected step 1, a handrail 2 that moves in synchronization with this step 1, a balustrade 3, an intermediate horizontal road A, a lower entrance / exit B, an upper exit / entrance C, etc. have a conventional overall construction. Same as the above, but in the present invention, an intermediate entrance / exit D is provided at the intermediate horizontal path A, and further, the intermediate entrance / exit D engages with the unevenness on the surface of step 1 to ascend / descend the passenger's feet. It is characterized in that the comb 4 for protecting the vehicle and the intermediate handrail E having a length corresponding to the intermediate entrance D are provided on the step 1 side of the intermediate entrance D.

The intermediate entrance D has a structure in which it is cantilevered and fixed to the frame body frame 5 so that the step 1 can pass thereunder. Then, the handrail 2 and the balustrade 3 to which one side of the middle entrance / exit D approaches are divided into portions corresponding to the length of the middle entrance / exit D, and the upper side balustrade 3A, the lower side balustrade 3B, and the upper handrail. 2A and the lower handrail 2B form an intermediate entrance / exit.

The upper handrail 2A and the lower handrail 2B do not necessarily have to be divided, and may be one that penetrates the lower side of the intermediate entrance D.

[0013]

[Effect of the device]

 According to the present invention, it is possible to provide an intermediate entrance / exit at a place where there is an intermediate horizontal road. Therefore, the same effect as having a plurality of passenger conveyors with one passenger conveyor can be obtained. It is convenient for customers.
