Referring to FIG. 2, the drop bar 20 is located in one section of the handrail 10. The drop bar 20 may be provided in a rod shape having a set length. One end of the drop bar 20 is rotatably connected to the handrail 10 or the support rod 11 via a rotary shaft 21 in a vertical direction.

3 is a view showing a supporting device.

Referring to FIG. 3, the support device 30 supports the other end of the drop bar 20. The support device 30 includes a support plate 300 and latching members 310, 320.

The support plate 300 supports the lower portion of the other end of the drop bar 20. The support plate 300 may be provided in a plate shape having a set area. The support plate 300 is rotatably provided in the vertical direction. . The other side of the support plate 300 in the direction adjacent to the drop bar 20 is connected to the handrail 10 or the support rod 11.

The first engaging member 310 and the second engaging member 320 support the support plate 300 positioned therebetween.

The first latching member 310 includes a first connecting portion 311, a first latching portion 312, and a first extending portion 314.

The first connecting portion 311 is formed to protrude inward toward the second engaging member 320. [ The inner end of the first connection part 311 is rotatably supported by the support shaft 330 in the vertical direction. One end of the support shaft 330 may be fixed to the handrail 10 or the support rod 11. The support shaft 330 can be provided in the direction of the handrail 10 in the section where the drop bar 20 is installed.

The first latching part 312 is formed to extend downward from the outer end of the first connection part 311. The inner side surface of the first latching portion 312 is formed so that the lower portion protrudes inward. For example, the inner surface of the first engaging portion 312 may be inclined so as to protrude inward as it goes downward. A first latching protrusion 313 protruding inward may be formed at a lower portion of the first latching portion 312.

The first extending portion 314 is formed to extend upward from the outer end of the first connecting portion 311. The first extension 314 may have a set length so that a leverage effect may occur with respect to the end of the first connection 311. [

The second latching member 320 includes a second connecting portion 321, a second latching portion 322, and a second extending portion 324.

The second engaging protrusion 323 formed at the lower portion of the second connecting portion 321, the second engaging portion 322 and the second engaging portion 322 is inserted into the first connecting portion 311 of the first engaging member 310, May be provided to be the same or similar to the first latching portion 312 and the first latching jaw 313.

Both sides of the support plate 300 are supported by the inner surface of the first engaging portion 312 and the inner surface of the second engaging portion 322.

The second extension portion 324 is formed to extend upward from the outer end of the second connection portion 321. The second extension portion 324 may have a set length so that a leverage effect may occur with respect to the end of the second connection portion 321. [ The second extension portion 324 may be provided such that its upper end is located above the upper end of the first extension portion 314. [

A first elastic member 331 is provided between the first extended portion 314 and the second extended portion 324. The first elastic member 331 exerts an outward force on the first extension portion 314 and the second extension portion 324. [

A pressing member 340 is provided on the outer side of the first extending portion 314. The pressing member 340 may be provided in a plate shape or a block shape having a setting volume. The pressing member 340 is rotatably supported by a shaft 341. [ The shaft 341 may be provided in a direction parallel to the support shaft 330. One end of the shaft 341 may be fixed to the handrail 10 or the support rod 11. The pressing member 340 is provided so that a portion positioned downward with respect to the shaft 341 is abutted against the outer surface of the first extending portion 314 to apply a force acting inward to the first extending portion 314.

The connecting member 360 connects the foot plate 350 and the second engaging member 320 located below the drop bar 20. Specifically, the footrest 350 is rotatably provided by a hinge positioned at the bottom. A lower portion of the foot plate 350 is provided with a second elastic member 351 for providing a restoring force in the upper direction on the foot plate 350. [ One end of the connecting member 360 is connected to the upper portion of the foot plate 350.

The other end of the connecting member 360 is connected to the upper portion of the second connecting portion 321 via the upper portion of the pressing member 340. A guide shaft 342 may be provided on the upper portion of the pressing member 340 in contact with the connecting member 360. The guide shaft 342 may be rotatably provided. Therefore, damage due to friction can be reduced when the connecting member 360 relatively moves with respect to the pressing member 340. The connecting member 360 may be a linearly provided wire, rope, or the like.

4 and 5 are views showing a state in which the supporting apparatus is operated.

Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, an operator moving to the outside of the handrail 10 presses the foot plate 350. Accordingly, the second extending portion 324 connected to the connecting member 360 is moved toward the first extending portion 314. When the force is applied to the upper portion of the pressing member 340 by the connecting member 360, the lower portion of the pressing member 340 moves toward the first extending portion 314 to apply a force to the first extending portion 314 The first extending portion 314 can be moved toward the second extending portion 324.

As a result, the separation distance of the retaining portions 312 and 322 supporting the support plate 300 is increased so that the support plate 300 is rotated downward and the drop bar 20 is separated from the support device 30.
