Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an entrance of a passenger conveyor such as an escalator and an automatic line.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, passenger conveyors are now installed everywhere and are used by an unspecified number of passengers. And some of the passengers do not fully understand the mechanism of the passenger conveyor or do not carelessly ride, and accidents such as getting caught in the movable parts of the handrail and steps may occur. was there. Especially,
There is a danger that a child playing near the entrance may inadvertently push the movable part of the passenger conveyor strongly, causing an accident.

Therefore, in order to prevent the occurrence of this accident, conventionally, as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 5-116878, the floor board on the entrance / exit connecting to the steps is located at the center and at both sides other than the center. There has been developed a device that guides a passenger psychologically to the center of a step by making the pattern different between the sections.

[0004]

In the above prior art,
Because the boundary between the movable part consisting of the handrail and steps and the fixed part other than the handrail and steps is unclear,
Adults, as well as children, had the problem of accidentally getting too close to moving parts and getting involved in an accident. In addition, when a child's guardian pays attention to a child approaching a movable part, there is a problem that the child cannot pay sufficient attention because the boundary between the movable part and the fixed part cannot be sufficiently recognized.

In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide
It is an object of the present invention to provide a highly safe passenger conveyer entrance where a passenger can fully recognize a boundary between a movable part and a fixed part, and can prevent access to the movable part.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to provide an endlessly connected step and an entrance and an exit of each of two handrails provided on both sides of the step and running in synchronization with the step. At the entrance and exit of a passenger conveyor comprising two inlet portions and a comb provided at the tip of the floor plate of the entrance and exit, and provided with teeth through which the crosspiece of the step enters and exits, from the handrail and the step. A belt-shaped raising body for raising the existence of a boundary between the movable portion and the fixed portion other than the handrail and the steps is provided on the entrance / exit floor plate corresponding to the front of the outer wall, the front of the front wall, and the front of the inner wall of the inlet. It is achieved by forming it on the top and as if it continues to the comb.

According to this configuration, when the child is playing at the entrance, the guardian of the child looks at the band-shaped evoking body and gives the child an appropriate control so as not to approach the inside of the evoking body. You can be careful. Also, children, by the evoking body,
Be aware of the moving parts of the passenger conveyor.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the escalator is
A step 2 connected endlessly, two handrails 3 and 4 respectively arranged on both sides of the step 2 and running in synchronization with the step 2, and a floor board for getting on and off the step 2 5 and a step 2 provided at the end of the floor plate 5
Has a comb 6 provided with teeth to enter and exit.

The entrance / exit floor plate 5 comprises three steel plates 5a, 5b,
5c so as to cover the upper opening of the machine room. The handrails 3, 4 are located at the entrance of the escalator 1.
There are provided two inlet portions 7 and 8 serving as entrances and exits. An inlet terminal switch (not shown) is provided in each of the inlets 7 and 8. In FIG. 1, 9 is a balustrade panel, 10 is a deck cover, and 11 is a skirt guard. A skirt guard switch (not shown) is provided in the skirt guard 11.
When the inlet portions 7 and 8 are pressed with a strong force, when the inlet terminal switch is pressed with a strong force, the inlet terminal switch is activated and the escalator 1 is turned on.
The movable part including the handrails 3 and 4 and the steps 2 is stopped. When the skirt guard 11 is pressed with a strong force, the skirt guard switch is actuated to stop the movable portion of the escalator 1 including the handrails 3 and 4 and the steps 2.

The handrail 3 is provided on the floor plate 5 corresponding to the front of the outer walls 7a, 8a of the inlets 7, 8, the front of the front walls 7b, 8b and the front of the inner walls 7c, 8c.
There are provided band-shaped alerting bodies 12 and 13 for alerting the existence of a boundary between a movable portion including the step 4 and the step 2 and a fixed portion other than the handrails 3 and 4 and the step 2. This evoking body 12,
Reference numeral 13 is connected to the comb 6 and is given the same color as the comb 6, for example, yellow.

The arousing bodies 12 and 13 may simply be colored on the entrance / exit floor plate 5 or may be fitted with a plastic plate on the entrance / exit floor plate 5.

With the above configuration, when the passenger approaches the entrance, the boundary between the movable part and the fixed part can be accurately and easily known by the arousing bodies 12 and 13, so that the passenger can sufficiently Therefore, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of an accident that a passenger gets caught in the entrance of the handrails 3 and 4. In addition, a passenger with a child can accurately teach the child about the movable part of the escalator 1 by the arousing bodies 12 and 13, and the child himself gets on the step 2 while paying sufficient attention to the movable part. As a result, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of an accident between the movable part and the fixed part.

[0014]

As described above, according to the present invention, the boundary between the movable part and the fixed part of the elevator can be accurately and easily known by the arousing body, so that the passenger can approach the movable part. A very safe passenger conveyor entrance that can be prevented is obtained.
