　図６は、実施の形態１における清掃装置の平面図である。 FIG. 6 is a plan view of the cleaning device according to the first embodiment.
　図６は、清掃装置１０を上下方向から見た状態を示す。つまり、ステップ２が移動すると、図６の左右方向に清掃装置１０が移動する。 FIG. 6 shows the cleaning device 10 as viewed from above and below. That is, when step 2 moves, the cleaning device 10 moves in the left-right direction in FIG.
　清掃体支持部１１は、ステップ２に取り付けられた状態でスカートガード９に対向する支持面１１ａを有する。支持面１１ａは、例えば、上下方向から見て、ステップ２の前後方向における中央部が平坦に形成される。支持面１１ａは、例えば、上下方向から見て、ステップ２の前後方向における少なくとも一方の端部がスカートガード９から遠ざかるように傾斜して形成される。 The cleaning body support portion 11 has a support surface 11a facing the skirt guard 9 in the state of being attached to the step 2. The support surface 11a has a flat central portion in the front-rear direction of the step 2 when viewed from above and below, for example. The support surface 11 a is formed so as to be inclined, for example, so that at least one end portion in the front-rear direction of step 2 moves away from the skirt guard 9 when viewed in the vertical direction.
　図６は、支持面１１ａの前端部及び後端部の両方が傾斜して形成された場合を例示する。この場合、清掃体支持部１１は、テーパー形状を呈する。 FIG. 6 illustrates a case where both the front end portion and the rear end portion of the support surface 11a are formed to be inclined. In this case, the cleaning body support portion 11 has a tapered shape.
　清掃体１２は、例えば、清掃体支持部１１の支持面１１ａに沿って支持される。均一な厚さの清掃体１２が傾斜を持つ支持面１１ａに沿って支持された場合、図６に示すように、スカートガード９に接触する清掃体１２の表面が支持面１１ａと同様に傾斜する。 The cleaning body 12 is supported, for example, along the support surface 11a of the cleaning body support portion 11. When the cleaning body 12 having a uniform thickness is supported along the inclined support surface 11a, the surface of the cleaning body 12 contacting the skirt guard 9 is inclined like the support surface 11a, as shown in FIG. ..
　清掃体１２は、例えば、清掃体支持部１１に対して着脱可能である。清掃体１２は、例えば、支持面１１ａに貼り付けられることで清掃体支持部１１に支持される。清掃体１２は、例えば、支持面１１ａから剥がされることで清掃体支持部１１から取り外される。 The cleaning body 12 can be attached to and detached from the cleaning body supporting portion 11, for example. The cleaning body 12 is supported by the cleaning body support portion 11 by being attached to the support surface 11a, for example. The cleaning body 12 is detached from the cleaning body supporting portion 11 by being peeled off from the supporting surface 11a, for example.
　図７は、実施の形態１における清掃方法を示すフローチャートである。 FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the cleaning method according to the first embodiment.
　以下、図７を参照して、清掃装置１０を用いて乗客コンベアのスカートガード９を清掃する手順の一例を説明する。 Hereinafter, an example of a procedure for cleaning the skirt guard 9 of the passenger conveyor using the cleaning device 10 will be described with reference to FIG. 7.
　ステップＳ１０１では、清掃装置設置工程が実施される。清掃装置設置工程において、作業者は、ガイドパッド８を予め清掃体１２が貼り付けられた清掃体支持部１１と交換することで、少なくとも１つのステップ２に対して清掃装置１０を設置する。１つのステップ２につき、左右のガイドパッド８の代わりに２つの清掃装置１０が設置される。 In step S101, a cleaning device installation process is performed. In the cleaning device installation step, the worker installs the cleaning device 10 for at least one step 2 by exchanging the guide pad 8 with the cleaning body support 11 to which the cleaning body 12 is attached in advance. For each step 2, two cleaning devices 10 are installed instead of the left and right guide pads 8.
　ステップＳ１０２では、摺動工程が実施される。摺動工程において、作業者は、清掃装置が設置されたステップ２を含む乗客コンベアを運転させる。摺動工程では、例えば、ステップ２が一周以上循環移動するまで乗客コンベアの運転が継続される。摺動工程では、清掃体１２がスカートガード９の表面と接触しながら摺動することにより、ステップ２の往路及び帰路においてスカートガード９の汚れが取り除かれる。 In step S102, a sliding process is performed. In the sliding step, the worker operates the passenger conveyor including step 2 in which the cleaning device is installed. In the sliding step, for example, the operation of the passenger conveyor is continued until the step 2 makes a circular movement for one round or more. In the sliding step, the cleaning body 12 slides while coming into contact with the surface of the skirt guard 9, so that the dirt on the skirt guard 9 is removed in the outward and return passes of step 2.
　ステップＳ１０３では、清掃装置撤去工程が実施される。清掃装置撤去工程において、作業者は、１つ又は複数のステップ２に設置されていた全ての清掃装置１０を撤去する。清掃装置１０が撤去されたステップ２には、再びガイドパッド８が取り付けられる。 In step S103, a cleaning device removal process is performed. In the cleaning device removal step, the worker removes all the cleaning devices 10 installed in one or more steps 2. The guide pad 8 is attached again to the step 2 where the cleaning device 10 has been removed.
　以上で説明した実施の形態１によれば、清掃体支持部１１は、踏板５よりも下方でステップ２に取り付けられる。清掃体１２は、清掃体支持部１１によって支持され、ステップ２に清掃体支持部１１が取り付けられた状態でスカートガード９に接触する。清掃装置１０が設置された状態で乗客コンベアが運転されると、清掃体１２によってスカートガード９の汚れが取り除かれる。このため、スカートガード９の清掃作業を容易に行うことができる。 According to the first embodiment described above, the cleaning body support 11 is attached to the step 2 below the tread 5. The cleaning body 12 is supported by the cleaning body supporting portion 11, and contacts the skirt guard 9 in a state where the cleaning body supporting portion 11 is attached in step 2. When the passenger conveyor is operated with the cleaning device 10 installed, the cleaning body 12 removes dirt on the skirt guard 9. Therefore, the cleaning work of the skirt guard 9 can be easily performed.
　また、清掃体支持部１１の支持面１１ａは、例えば、上下方向から見て、ステップ２の前後方向における少なくとも一方の端部がスカートガード９から遠ざかるように傾斜して形成される。清掃体１２は、例えば、清掃体支持部１１の支持面１１ａに沿って支持される。この場合、支持面１１ａが傾斜を持つ向きにステップ２が移動するときに清掃体１２に加わるせん断力を小さくし、清掃体１２の剥がれを抑制できる。このため、乗客コンベアの上昇運転及び下降運転の少なくとも一方を行う際に、清掃体１２の寿命を向上させることができる。 Further, the support surface 11a of the cleaning body support portion 11 is formed so as to be inclined, for example, so that at least one end portion in the front-rear direction of step 2 moves away from the skirt guard 9 when viewed in the vertical direction. The cleaning body 12 is supported, for example, along the support surface 11 a of the cleaning body supporting portion 11. In this case, the shearing force applied to the cleaning body 12 when the step 2 moves in the direction in which the support surface 11a has an inclination can be reduced, and the cleaning body 12 can be prevented from peeling off. Therefore, when performing at least one of the ascending operation and the descending operation of the passenger conveyor, the life of the cleaning body 12 can be improved.
　また、清掃体支持部１１の支持面１１ａは、例えば、上下方向から見て、ステップ２の前後方向における両方の端部がスカートガード９から遠ざかるように傾斜して形成される。清掃体１２は、例えば、清掃体支持部１１の支持面１１ａに沿って支持される。この場合、乗客コンベアの上昇運転及び下降運転のどちらを行う際にも、清掃体１２の寿命を向上させることができる。 Further, the support surface 11a of the cleaning member support portion 11 is formed so as to be inclined, for example, so that both end portions in the front-rear direction of step 2 are away from the skirt guard 9 when viewed in the vertical direction. The cleaning body 12 is supported, for example, along the support surface 11 a of the cleaning body supporting portion 11. In this case, the life of the cleaning body 12 can be improved when performing either the ascending operation or the descending operation of the passenger conveyor.
　また、清掃体１２は、例えば、清掃体支持部１１に対して着脱可能である。この場合、清掃体１２を取り替えるだけで清掃装置１０を繰り返し使用可能であるため、コストを削減できる。 Further, the cleaning body 12 can be attached to and detached from the cleaning body support portion 11, for example. In this case, the cleaning device 10 can be repeatedly used only by replacing the cleaning body 12, so that the cost can be reduced.
　また、清掃体１２は、例えば、フェルトで形成される。この場合、スカートガード９の表面に堆積した汚れをフェルトでこそぎ落とす様に取り除くことができる。このため、清掃効率を向上させることができる。 Also, the cleaning body 12 is made of felt, for example. In this case, dirt accumulated on the surface of the skirt guard 9 can be removed by scraping off with a felt. Therefore, cleaning efficiency can be improved.
　また、乗客コンベアの清掃方法は、例えば、スカートガード９に接触する清掃体１２を支持する清掃体支持部１１をガイドパッド８と交換することでステップ２に取り付ける交換工程を備える。乗客コンベアの清掃方法は、例えば、清掃体支持部１１が取り付けられたステップ２を含む乗客コンベアを運転させる摺動工程を備える。つまり、ステップ２のガイドパッド８を一時的に清掃装置１０と交換して乗客コンベアを運転させるだけで、スカートガード９を清掃できる。このため、スカートガード９の清掃作業を容易に行うことができる。 Further, the method for cleaning the passenger conveyor includes, for example, an exchange step of attaching the cleaning body supporting portion 11 supporting the cleaning body 12 that contacts the skirt guard 9 to the guide pad 8 to attach it to step 2. The method of cleaning the passenger conveyor includes, for example, a sliding step of operating the passenger conveyor including Step 2 in which the cleaning body supporting unit 11 is attached. That is, the skirt guard 9 can be cleaned only by temporarily replacing the guide pad 8 in step 2 with the cleaning device 10 and operating the passenger conveyor. Therefore, the cleaning work of the skirt guard 9 can be easily performed.
　以上のように、この発明は、乗客コンベアのスカートガードの清掃作業に利用できる。 As mentioned above, this invention can be used for cleaning the skirt guard of a passenger conveyor.
