Embodiment Construction

[0013] With reference to the drawings, it will be appreciated that the present invention is embodied in a unit 10 associated with an escalator handrail 12 for dispensing a disinfectant fluid onto the upper surface 20 of the handrail to sterilize the surface when a user A surface that is engaged by the user when riding the escalator associated with the handrail. The escalator handrail moves in direction 30 and moves past the unit 10, which is stationary with respect to the moving handrail.

[0014] Unit 10 includes a mounting bracket 40 that is fixedly connected to a fixed structure 42 that also supports the armrest. Bracket 40 includes a mounting end 44 having a mounting element such as a bolt 46 therethrough and a distal end 48 . An opening 50 is defined through the bracket for purposes that will be understood from the teachings of this disclosure. Mounting bracket 40 has two elements, one of which is shown in figure 1 , while the second element is on the other side of the...

Abstract

The invention discloses a disinfectant distributing unit, which is arranged on an armrest of an automatic escalator, an armrest of a movable side pavement or any rotary armrest. The disinfectant distributing unit can be arranged at an armrest incoming or leaving part and use fog to disinfect the surface of the armrest continuously and allows a maintenance person to fill the disinfectant easily.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to the field of escalators, and in particular to the field of escalator handrails. Background technique [0002] Generally, escalators are installed in multi-storey buildings in a manner of being connected to each other in a zigzag pattern, unlike an elevator moving between a boarding floor and a desired floor. Therefore, escalators are mainly used in department stores selling various products, subways, airports, terminal stations, etc. where crowds gather, rather than in commercial buildings. Recently, a moving sidewalk as a horizontal travel type escalator is used even in the same floor to reduce the traffic volume. [0003] The armrests associated with such systems serve as handholds and are intended to prevent falls or slips of passengers. In order to prevent passengers from slipping, the armrest is usually made of rubber material. [0004] Since the handrails are in contact with the hands of many people, ...
