Definitions

  • Renner ABSTRACT A passenger conveyor system in which the driving force is applied to the handrail by means of a drive sheave mounted on a terminal pulley shaft for the conveyor. and the handrail is maintained under the minimum tension required to produce sufficient drive traction between the handrail and drive sheave for driving the handrail without slippage using a pair of takeup mechanisms. one on each side of the drive sheave. Takeup tension is applied to the handrail only by the takeup mechanism on the slack or exit side of the handrail drive sheave, which varies depending on the direction of rotation of the drive sheave; the takeup mechanism on the tension or entry side is pulled against a stop.
  • This invention relates generally to a handrail drive for passenger conveyor systems, and, more particularly, to a simplified drive arrangement for driving the handrail in synchronism with the passenger-supporting conveyor, and a dual takeup system for proper tensioning of the handrail to apply the minimum force required to obtain the minimum required drive traction for driving the handrail in either direction.
  • Passenger conveyor systems whether of the moving belt type or moving stairway type,are ordinarily provided at each side with an endless moving handrail driven in synchronism with the passenger supporting conveyor for grasping by the conveyor passengers.
  • the upper run of each handrail is supported by suitable guides associated with a balustrade, and the return run and friction drive for the handrail may either be enclosed within the balustrade or located therebeneath depending on whether or not the balustrade is light transmissive.
  • the handrail To obtain sufficient drive traction for driving the handrail, the handrail must be placed under tension, and it has been common practice to use a single takeup mechanism for that purpose. However, this requires that the takeup tension be maintained at full tight side tension if the conveyor is to be capable of being driven in either direction, and under such high tension, the rate of deterioration of the handrail and associated support and drive complements is much greater. Moreover, such high tension generally requires heavier and more expensive handrail drive components to be used.
  • the usual drive mechanism for the handrail also generally requires the use of secondary belts, chains, or gears to transmit power from the main conveyor drive to the handrail, which further addsto the cost and complexity of the system and increased maintenance costs.
  • Another object is to provide such a conveyor system with a dual takeup system for maintaining the handrail takeup tension at the minimum force required to produce sufficient drive traction for driving the handrail in either direction.
  • a passenger conveyor system in which the driving force is applied to the handrail by means of a drive sheave mounted on a pulley shaft for the passenger supporting conveyor.
  • the handrail drive sheave is of the same diameter as the conveyor pulley, whereby rotation of the pulley shaft either directly or by the main conveyor will cause the conveyor and handrail to move at the same speed.
  • the handrail is maintained under the minimum tension required to produce sufficient drive traction between the handrail and drive sheave for driving the handrail without slippage by a pair of takeup mechanisms, one on each side of the drive sheave. Slack in the handrail is taken up only by the take up mechanism on the slack side of the handrail drive sheave; the other takeup mechanism on the tension side is pulled up against a stop where it is retained until the handrail drive is either stopped or reversed to drive the handrail in the reverse direction, in which event the other takeup mechanism takes up the slack and the first takeup mechanism is pulled up against a stop.

  • One of the additional pulleys 9 may be a tensioning device for providing proper tension in the conveyor 3, and another of the pulleys 10 may be the main drive pulley for the conveyor.
  • idler pulleys 11 and 12 Associated with each of the tensioning and drive pulleys 9 and 10 are idler pulleys 11 and 12 for increasing the angle of wrap around the tensioning and drive pulleys, and additional idler support pulleys 13 may also be provided where required.

  • a handrail 25 in the form of an endless flexible narrow belt is provided adjacent each side of the conveyor 3 for grasping by the passengers.
  • Each handrail 25 is desirably generally C-shape in section for support by the upper edge 26 of the balustrades 27 adjacent the sides of the conveyor 3, and such upper edge 26 is desirably shaped to provide a guide surface for the upper run 28 of the handrail 25 which is substantially parallel to the upper run 4 of the conveyor 3.

  • the diameter of each drive sheave 33 approximately equal to the diameter of the terminal pulley 8 for the passenger-supporting conveyor 3, rotation of the terminal pulley. 8 by driving the conveyor 3 through the main drive pulley 10 or by driving the terminal pulley shaft directly will cause the drive sheaves 33 and thus the handrails 25 to move at the same speed as the conveyor 3 without having to use secondary belts, chains, or gears to transmit power from the main conveyor drive to the handrail drive sheaves, thus substantially simplifying the drive for the handrail.
  • any slack which occurs in the handrails 25 due to stretching and the like is taken up and the handrails maintained under proper tension to provide sufficient drive traction between the drive sheaves 33 and each handrail 25 for driving the handrails in either direction by a pair of tension takeup mechanisms 35 and 36, shown schematically in FIG. 1 and in greater detail in FIGS. 2 and 8.
  • the takeup mechanisms 35 and 36 for each handrail are located adjacent opposite ends of the conveyor system.
  • the takeup mechanisms 35 and 36 are positioned so that one takeup mechanism is located on the slack side of the drive sheave 33 and the other takeup mechanism is located on the tension side or vice versa depending on the direction of rotation of the drive sheave, the tension of course always being greater at the point where the handrail first engages the drive sheave and less where the handrail leaves the drive sheave.
  • the slack side driving tension in the handrail may be maintained at the minimum force required to produce sufficient drive traction between the drive sheaves 33 and handrails 25 for driving the handrail without slippage.
  • This tension force is substantially less than the high side tension in the handrail 25, and accordingly, the takeup mechanism on the high tension side is pulled into engagement with a travel stop in a manner to be subsequently fully described.
