Abstract

Provided is a truss structure for a passenger conveyor with which it is possible to improve rigidity. A truss structure for a passenger conveyor comprises an intermediate chord member provided so as to span from one adjoining step of a building to another adjoining step, a lower chord member provided below the intermediate chord member, and an upper chord member provided above the intermediate chord member. According to this configuration, it is possible to improve the rigidity of the truss structure for a passenger conveyor. Therefore, it is possible to enhance the degree of freedom in designing the truss structure for a passenger conveyor.

　例えば、第１の縦材１８と中弦材１６または下弦材１７とは、溶接により接続される。また、第１の縦材１８と中弦材１６または下弦材１７とは、ボルトまたはリベットにより接続される。 For example, the first vertical member 18 and the middle chord member 16 or the lower chord member 17 are connected by welding. Further, the first vertical member 18 and the middle chord member 16 or the lower chord member 17 are connected by bolts or rivets.
　例えば、第２の縦材１９と上弦材１５、第２の縦材１９と中弦材１６または下弦材１７とは、溶接により接続される。また、第２の縦材１９と上弦材１５、第２の縦材１９と中弦材１６または下弦材１７とは、ボルトまたはリベットにより接続される。 For example, the second vertical member 19 and the upper chord member 15, the second vertical member 19 and the middle chord member 16 or the lower chord member 17 are connected by welding. Further, the second vertical member 19 and the upper chord member 15, the second vertical member 19 and the middle chord member 16 or the lower chord member 17 are connected by bolts or rivets.
　例えば、斜材２０と第１の縦材１８または第２の縦材１９、斜材２０と中弦材１６または下弦材１７とは、溶接により接続される。また、斜材２０と第１の縦材１８または第２の縦材１９、斜材２０と中弦材１６または下弦材１７とは、ボルトまたはリベットにより接続される。 For example, the diagonal member 20 and the first vertical member 18 or the second vertical member 19, and the diagonal member 20 and the middle chord member 16 or the lower chord member 17 are connected by welding. Further, the diagonal member 20 and the first vertical member 18 or the second vertical member 19, and the diagonal member 20 and the middle chord member 16 or the lower chord member 17 are connected by bolts or rivets.
　以上で説明した実施の形態１によれば、乗客コンベアのトラス構造は、中弦材１６と下弦材１７と上弦材１５を有する。このため、トラス構造の剛性を向上することができる。 According to the first embodiment described above, the truss structure of the passenger conveyor has a middle chord member 16, a lower chord member 17, and an upper chord member 15. Therefore, the rigidity of the truss structure can be improved.
　なお、上弦材１５は、手摺９の下部において、手摺９の裏面側に接する位置に設けられる。この場合、上弦材１５が意匠面に現れない。このため、乗客コンベアは意匠性を損なわない。 The upper chord member 15 is provided at a position in the lower part of the handrail 9 in contact with the back surface side of the handrail 9. In this case, the upper chord member 15 does not appear on the design surface. Therefore, the passenger conveyor does not impair the design.
　また、上弦材１５と中弦材１６と下弦材１７とは、第２の縦材１９により連続して接続される。このため、トラス構造の剛性を向上することができる。 Further, the upper chord member 15, the middle chord member 16, and the lower chord member 17 are continuously connected by the second vertical member 19. Therefore, the rigidity of the truss structure can be improved.
　また、トラス１３は、中弦材１６を備える。このため、従来のトラス構造における上弦材に設置されていた部品の取り付け位置を確保することができる。 Further, the truss 13 includes a middle chord member 16. Therefore, it is possible to secure the mounting position of the parts installed on the upper chord member in the conventional truss structure.
　また、意匠面に現れているトラス１３は、カバー１４で覆われる。このため、既設の乗客コンベアのトラス構造の意匠性を損なわない。 Also, the truss 13 appearing on the design surface is covered with the cover 14. Therefore, the design of the truss structure of the existing passenger conveyor is not impaired.
　なお、上弦材１５により、乗客コンベアのトラス構造は、断面高さが増加し、曲げ剛性が向上する。その結果、トラス１３の鉛直方向のたわみを軽減することができる。このため、トラス１３の中間支持部をなくすことができる。 Note that the upper chord member 15 increases the cross-sectional height of the truss structure of the passenger conveyor and improves the bending rigidity. As a result, the vertical deflection of the truss 13 can be reduced. Therefore, the intermediate support portion of the truss 13 can be eliminated.
　なお、上弦材１５により、乗客コンベアのトラス構造は、剛性が向上する。この場合、乗客コンベアのトラス構造に求められる剛性に応じて、上弦材１５以外の材料を減らすことができる。このため、乗客コンベアのトラス構造の設計の自由度が向上する。 The upper chord material 15 improves the rigidity of the truss structure of the passenger conveyor. In this case, materials other than the upper chord member 15 can be reduced according to the rigidity required for the truss structure of the passenger conveyor. Therefore, the degree of freedom in designing the truss structure of the passenger conveyor is improved.
　なお、上弦材１５により、乗客コンベアのトラス構造は、剛性が向上する。この場合、乗客コンベアのトラス構造に求められる剛性に応じて、上弦材１５以外の材料を軽量化することができる。このため、乗客コンベアのトラス構造を軽量化することができる。 The upper chord material 15 improves the rigidity of the truss structure of the passenger conveyor. In this case, the weight of the material other than the upper chord member 15 can be reduced according to the rigidity required for the truss structure of the passenger conveyor. Therefore, the truss structure of the passenger conveyor can be reduced in weight.
　また、斜材２０を上弦材１５まで延長して、下弦材１７から上弦材１５まで連続して接続してもよい。この場合、第２の縦材１９を用いずにトラス構造の剛性を向上することができる。このため、意匠性を損なわずにトラス構造の剛性を向上することができる。 Further, the diagonal member 20 may be extended to the upper chord member 15 and continuously connected from the lower chord member 17 to the upper chord member 15. In this case, the rigidity of the truss structure can be improved without using the second vertical member 19. Therefore, the rigidity of the truss structure can be improved without impairing the design.
　また、上弦材１５と中弦材１６の間を接続する斜材および上弦材１５と中弦材１６の間を接続する縦材を併用してもよい。この場合、乗客コンベアの乗客の荷重を当該斜材および当該縦材により支えることができる。このため、欄干パネル７の厚みを減らすことができ、設計の自由度が向上する。 Further, a diagonal member connecting between the upper chord member 15 and the middle chord member 16 and a vertical member connecting between the upper chord member 15 and the middle chord member 16 may be used together. In this case, the load of the passengers on the passenger conveyor can be supported by the diagonal lumber and the vertical lumber. Therefore, the thickness of the balustrade panel 7 can be reduced, and the degree of freedom in design is improved.
　また、すでに完成している乗客コンベアのトラス構造に、後付けで上弦材１５を追加してもよい。この場合、既設の乗客コンベアのトラス構造の意匠性を損なわずにトラス構造の剛性を向上することができる。 Alternatively, the upper chord member 15 may be added to the truss structure of the passenger conveyor that has already been completed. In this case, the rigidity of the truss structure can be improved without impairing the design of the truss structure of the existing passenger conveyor.

Up to one of the lower chord members 17 is divided and connected by one member for each.
　以上で説明した実施の形態１の変形例によれば、第２の縦材１９は、上弦材１５と下弦材１７との間に複数に分割して接続される。この場合、複数の第２の縦材１９の各々の長さを短くすることができる。 According to the modification of the first embodiment described above, the second vertical member 19 is divided and connected between the upper chord member 15 and the lower chord member 17.
