This invention relates to the field of subway station platform technology, and in particular to a subway station platform safety protection device, comprising a subway platform, a platform door frame, and a top plate. The platform door frame is fixedly installed at one end of the subway platform, and the top plate is fixedly installed at the top of the platform door frame. A subway car door protective opening structure is provided on the inner side of the platform door frame. In this subway station platform safety protection device, the lower end of the platform door is connected to a pulley via a bearing, allowing it to slide left and right in a sliding groove. This sliding pulley reduces friction between the platform door and the groove, making opening smoother. The sealing gasket is made of rubber and wraps around the edge of the platform door, thus filling the gap after the platform door closes. When the subway enters the platform, both platform doors are closed, separating passengers from the subway and reducing the risk of being pulled into the subway tracks, thereby improving the protective capability of the subway station platform safety protection device.
