Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] 3. Detailed Description of the Invention [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a display device for a passenger conveyor such as an escalator or an electric road. and a parapet structure suitable for enhancing decorativeness.

[Conventional technology]

For conventional passenger conveyors, an optical fiber display type additional device disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-108686 is known. This method did not take into account the diversity of displayed information and the preservation of the strength of the balustrade.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

The above-mentioned conventional technology was provided to increase safety and decorativeness, but because it displays a collection of points using optical fibers, the display ability is limited.

Although the device is installed close to the balustrade panel, no consideration has been given to its use as a means of reinforcing the balustrade panel.Generally, the sag of the balustrade panel is large at the end X of the balustrade shown in Figure 1. .

Maintaining the strength of this part is the most important part of the parapet structure.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a display device that provides various information to passengers to improve safety and decoration, and that can also be used as a reinforcing means for handrail panels.

[Means for solving problems]

The above object is achieved by arranging a display device which is fixed to the outer deck cover portion on the outside of the passenger conveyor at least in the vicinity of the entrance and exit, and whose side surface is in close contact with the parapet panel.

Note that the surface of this display device is designed to display a single arrow character or a pattern using a liquid crystal method or the like.

[Effect]

The display device of the present invention is fixed to a strength member below the outer deck cover and extends upwardly of the outer deck cover, and furthermore, its side surface is in close contact with the balustrade panel to serve as reinforcement. In addition, the display device may display arrows, characters, or
It has a display surface that displays information using optical means such as a liquid crystal display. As a result, the strength of the H-panel can be maintained and sales floor guidance can be improved.
It is designed to provide guidance in the direction of step progression.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a moving body of a step 1 and a moving handrail 2 arranged in an endless manner, an entrance 3, and a main body frame 4 are shown.
．． @ Hanging 51 The overall structure of the outer deck cover 6, W1 hanging panel 7, etc. that make up the layered hanging 5 is the same as the conventional one, but in the present invention, the outer deck cover 6 on the outside of the handrail panel 7 forming both walls of the entrance/exit 3 is used. The lower end of the display device a is firmly attached to the body frame 4 with a fixing tool 9 and a screw 10, and the display device a is provided with a display device [8] in the hole 6a of the outer deck cover 6.
passing through to the vicinity of the moving handrail 2, while its -
The side surfaces are in close contact with the parapet panel 7 on two sides, and serve as reinforcement against the pushing force in the direction of arrow Y given by passengers. Also, display bag N8.

It has a display surface C that optically expresses an arrow A, characters, or a pattern B. This optical means has a liquid crystal device and a lamp-type mechanism, and displays the correct way to board the passenger conveyor (for example, please hold on to the moving handrail) and sales floor information (sports equipment is on the 4th floor, etc.) from inside the passenger conveyor. The system is designed to perform optical expression via a lead wire 11 that receives electrical commands.

By doing so, it is possible to increase the strength, safety, and decorativeness of the parapet 5 all at once.

Note that if the balustrade panel 7 has sufficient strength, it may not have to serve as reinforcement and may be used as a mere optical display.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, safety and decoration for one passenger are increased,
It is also effective in increasing the strength of the parapet.

Claims (1)

[Scope of Claims] 1. A step and a moving handrail that are arranged in an endless manner and move; a handrail that stands upright between the step and the moving handrail and is arranged between the entrances and exits of the passenger conveyor; In the case of an outer deck cover and a parapet panel, an arrow, a letter, a pattern, etc. is fixed to the outer deck cover portion on the outer deck cover located on the outside of the parapet panel near the entrance of the parapet. A display device for a passenger conveyor, comprising a display device that optically displays.
