Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Object of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a balustrade of a man conveyor.

(Prior Art) Generally, as shown in FIG. 4, a passenger conveyor is provided with steps 1 arranged endlessly for carrying passengers and a rubber handrail 2 which rotates in synchronization with the steps. If it is a transparent type, a balustrade including a glass panel 3, a deck board 4, a guide frame 5 and the like is disposed between them.

If you explain the recent guide frame,
As shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 6, the guide frame 5 is made of an extruded aluminum material and is provided with a groove A on the lower surface over the entire length in the longitudinal direction. The groove A is fixed to the upper end of the glass panel 3 by using an adhesive agent 6. To be done. This installation work is completed at the installation site while adjusting the height B of the gap B at the joint of the glass panels 3 divided into a plurality of parts and the upper end of the glass panel 3 to which the guide frame 5 is attached. Done after. Further, the guide frame 5 is also divided into a plurality of parts, and the dividing position is shifted from the dividing position of the glass panel 3 so that one guide frame 5 is attached to the glass panel 3.
It is considered that the step difference at the joint portion C of the guide frame 5 is reduced by straddling the divided portions.
The guide frames 5 are attached one after another with their ends closely attached, and the last one is assembled by adjusting and cutting the length according to the actual product. When the work of adhering the guide frame 5 is completed, a guide 7 made of nylon or the like having good sliding characteristics is attached to these surfaces.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) Although the structure of the guide frame 5 is simple as described above, the workability of the bonding work at the installation site is poor, the reliability is lowered, and the number of times until the adhesive hardens There are still many points to be improved such as the troublesome procedure for fixing the glass panel 3 and the guide frame 5 for a day, and the necessity of interrupting a part of the installation work during that period.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a balustrade of a man conveyor with excellent quality while reducing the work of installing the guide frame at the installation site.

[Constitution of device]

(Means for Solving the Problems) According to the present invention, a guide frame for guiding a handrail is provided with a groove on the lower surface thereof, and a plurality of divided glass panels are fixed to the upper end of the groove. Is arranged shorter than the glass panel and is arranged at the center of the glass panel so that the glass panels project from both ends, and a short connecting guide frame is arranged between the ends of the adjacent guide frames. And a groove is provided at the center of the upper surface of the connecting guide frame, and the connecting guide frame and its adjacent guide frame are connected to the groove by a connecting plate slidably mounted only in the longitudinal direction of the guide frame. It is characterized by being connected.

(Operation) According to the present invention, since the connecting guide frame and the adjacent guide frame are connected to each other, the work of installing the guide frame at the installation site is greatly reduced, and the connecting plate also stabilizes the fixing force. improves.

(Embodiment) An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. The length of the guide frame 8 in the middle straight line portion is about 80 mm shorter than that of the glass panel 9 as shown in FIG. Then, the guide frame 8 is attached to the glass panel 9 at the factory with the adhesive 6 in a state where the glass panel 9 is bulged by about 40 mm at both ends and shipped.

At the installation site, the glass panel 9 is erected while adjusting the clearance B of the seam of the glass panel 9 and the height of the upper end of the already installed guide frame 8.

A groove D is provided in the center of the upper surface of the guide frame 8, and a connection plate 10 having a length of about 150 mm that can be housed in the groove is assembled before the glass panel 9 is erected. Made slightly longer than between the ends of adjacent guide frames 8.
The length of the connecting guide frame 11 (having the same cross-sectional shape as the guide frame 8) for connection of about 100 mm is adjusted according to the actual product so that it fits exactly between the ends, and then the upper end of the glass panel between the ends is glued 6 Install on.

Immediately thereafter, the built-in connection plate 10 is slid in the groove D to reach the next guide frame as shown in FIG. The connection plate 10 fixes the connection guide frame by the connection plate 10 until the joint 6 between the guide frame 8 and the connection guide frame 11 has no step and the adhesive 6 is hardened. Further, the connecting plate 10 itself is fixed to the guide frames 8 and 11 by a reaction force that eliminates a step between the guide frames 8 and 11. After this, the guide 7 is attached.

As described above, according to this embodiment, the work of attaching the guide frame at the installation site is greatly reduced, and the fixing force of the connection guide frame 11 adhered at the site is also stably improved by the connection plate 10.

The attachment of the connection guide frame 11 does not necessarily need to be performed with the adhesive agent 6, but may be performed by fitting via the packing. The connecting plate 10 may be screwed to the guide frames 8 and 11 or may be separately arranged at each joint.

[Effect of device]

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a bacon balustrade of excellent quality that is easy to assemble.
