JPH07215649A - Safety gear for man-conveyor - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide such a safety gear for a man-conveyor capable of changing a lamp in a short time without stopping the man-conveyor. CONSTITUTION:A safety gear for a man-conveyor has a step endlessly connected and rotationally moved, a handrail rotationally moved synchronously with the step, a base plate 2 provided at a gateway of the step and a skirt guard 5. I also has a luminaire 6, with a built-in illuminating lamp 7 to illuminate the upper face of the base plate 2, at the end of the base plate 2, or at a point of the base plate 2 perpendicular to the skirt guard 5.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a safety device for a man conveyor such as an escalator.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a passenger conveyor is composed of a step which is connected endlessly and rotates, a hand rail which rotates in synchronism with the step, a base plate and a skirt guard provided at an entrance of the step. ing.

In order to safely guide passengers from the base plate to the steps and from the steps to the base plate,
A skirt guard is provided with a slit, the slit portion is covered with a light-transmitting material, and an illumination lamp is provided inside the skirt guard.

[0004]

In the above-mentioned prior art, since the illumination lamp is provided inside the skirt guard, the skirt guard must be removed and replaced when the illumination lamp runs out of ball. It was For this reason, the operation of the passenger conveyor must be stopped to perform the work, which not only lowers the utilization efficiency but also requires a lot of time and labor for the replacement.

An object of the present invention is to provide a safety device for a man conveyor which allows lamp replacement without stopping the man conveyor and in a short time.

[0006]

Means for Solving the Problems The above object is to provide a step which is connected in an endless manner and rotates, a hand rail which rotates in synchronization with the step, a base plate provided at an entrance / exit of the step, and a skirt guard. In a passenger conveyor provided with the above, it is achieved by providing an illuminating body having a built-in illuminating lamp for irradiating the upper surface of the base plate inside the manipulator on the front end side of the base plate and at a portion orthogonal to the base plate and the skirt guard. can do.

[0007]

In the case where the illumination lamp is out of the bulb by providing an illuminating body having an illumination lamp for irradiating the upper surface of the base plate on the tip side of the base plate and at a portion orthogonal to the base plate and the skirt guard, However, the lamp can be replaced simply by removing the illuminating body, the operation of the man conveyor is not stopped, and much time and labor are not required.

[0008]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an overall configuration diagram in the vicinity of a landing of a passenger conveyor, FIG. 2 is a sectional view showing a state in which an illuminating body according to the present invention is attached to a skirt guard, and FIG.

In the figure, 1 is a step, 2 is a base plate for getting on and off the step 1, 3 is a handrail that runs in synchronization with the step 1, 4 is a deck, 5 is a skirt guard at the side end of the step 1, 6 Is an illuminating body of the present invention, 7 is an illuminating lamp installed inside the illuminating body 6, 7a is wiring necessary for the illuminating lamp 7, and 8 is an upper surface of a base plate 2 provided on the illuminating body 6. It is a slit for doing.

The illuminating body 6 is arranged on the tip side of the base plate 2 and in a portion where the base plate 2 and the skirt guard 5 are orthogonal to each other. The skirt guard 5 is provided with a hole for passing a necessary wiring 7a.

The illuminating body 6 is in operation during operation of the passenger conveyor. For example, when the illuminating lamp 7 inside the illuminating body 6 is out of a ball, the illuminating body 6 is moved to the base plate 2 and the skirt guard 5. The illumination lamp 7 can be replaced by simply removing it. Therefore, the work can be performed in a short time without stopping the operation of the passenger conveyor. The illuminating body 6 is attached to the base plate 2 and the cover plate 5 by a simple method such as fixing with an adhesive tape or fixing with a screw.

Further, since the illuminating device 6 of the present invention is arranged higher than the central portion of the skirt guard 5 on the base plate 2, the passenger is guided near the center of the step 1 at the entrance / exit of the passenger conveyor. In addition, the upper surface of the base plate 2 is illuminated by the illumination lamp 7 through the slit 8 provided in the illumination body 6, so that the passenger's attention can be increased.

[0013]

According to the present invention, the lamp can be replaced without stopping the man conveyor and in a short time, and the passenger can be guided to the vicinity of the center of the step at the entrance / exit of the man conveyor. It has the effect of exerting a safety effect.
