Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a cleaning device for a handrail frame of a passenger conveyor.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Generally, in passenger conveyors such as escalators and electric roads, a handrail frame is provided at the upper end of the balustrade standing upright on the left and right sides of the tread, and engages with a guide provided on this handrail frame to engage with the tread. The handrail is designed to move at the same speed.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the above-mentioned conventional technique, since the handrail slides on the guide, both sliding parts are worn, and the abrasion powder adheres to the handrail frame, which contaminates the passenger's hands and the like. .

An object of the present invention is to provide a handrail frame cleaning device that can effectively remove wear debris on the handrail frame.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The above-mentioned purpose consists of a handrail frame provided on the upper end of the balustrade standing upright on the left and right of the tread, and a handrail that engages with a guide provided on this handframe and moves at the same speed as the tread. In the passenger conveyor, the main body of the cross-section U-shaped body that fits on the handrail at the time of cleaning and moves on the handrail frame together with the handrail, and the brush provided at a position facing the handrail frame of the main body. It is achieved by being composed of and.

[0006]

[Action]

 The main body, which has a U-shaped cross section and is provided with a brush at a position facing the handrail frame, is fitted to the handrail during cleaning and moves together with the handrail. As a result, the upper surface of the handrail frame is cleaned by the brush and the handrail abrasion powder is removed. Therefore, the problem that the wearer's hands are soiled by the abrasion powder does not occur.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a cleaning device for a handrail frame. FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the handrail frame cleaning device fitted to the handrail.

In the figure, 1 is a tread, 2 is a deck, 3 is a balustrade standing on the left and right of the tread 1, 4 is a handrail frame provided at the upper end of the balustrade 3, and 5 is a handrail frame 4. The handrail guide 6 is engaged with the handrail guide 5 and moves at the same speed as the tread 1. Reference numeral 10 denotes a handrail frame cleaning device, which is composed of a main body 11 having a U-shaped cross section and a brush 12 provided at a portion of the main body 11 facing the handrail frame. The main body 11 is flexible such as rubber. It is made of natural material.

The cleaning of the handrail frame 4 using the cleaning device 10 is performed as follows. With the passenger conveyor stopped, the main body 11 is fitted to the handrail 6 as shown in FIG. When the passenger conveyor is operated in this state, the cleaning device 10 moves on the handrail frame 4 together with the handrail 6, and the brush 12 slides on the handrail frame 4. As a result, the upper surface of the handrail frame 4 is cleaned by the brush 12 and the handrail abrasion powder is removed.

When the cleaning device 10 reaches the end of the handrail frame 4, the operation of the passenger conveyor is stopped and the cleaning operation is completed.

[0011]

According to the present invention, the handrail abrasion powder on the upper surface of the handrail frame is effectively removed, and the passenger's hands can be prevented from being contaminated by the abrasion powder.
