Abstract

L'invention concerne un convoyeur de passagers, qui comprend un peigne (6), qui est fourni à une partie de plancher d'une plate-forme et a une pluralité de dents de peigne (6b) s'engrenant avec des crampons (1a) de marches. Le peigne (6) comporte : une couche interne de transmission de lumière (7) ; et une couche externe (8) qui recouvre la couche interne (7), et comprend un matériau qui est moins susceptible de permettre à la lumière de passer à travers ce dernier que la couche interne (7). La couche intérieure (7) a une pluralité de parties de couche interne de dents de peigne (7b) situées dans les dents de peigne (6b). Un dispositif de détection de rupture (12) pour détecter la rupture des dents de peigne (6b) comprend un détecteur de lumière (9) qui détecte la lumière extérieure incidente sur la couche interne (7) en raison de la perte de la couche externe (8) causée par la rupture des dents de peigne (6b).
