Steps for passenger conveyors and passenger conveyors

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new step of an escalator device that facilitates fixing of a demarcation to an end surface of a step-board reinforcing plate so as to improve workability.SOLUTION: An expanded and deformed part that extends downward and has an expanded and deformed hole therein is formed at a base part of a demarcation, the expanded and deformed part is inserted through a fixing hole formed in a step-board reinforcing plate and a deforming pin is inserted into the expanded and deformed hole of the expanded and deformed part so that an outer peripheral surface of the expanded and deformed part is expanded and then fixed to the fixing hole of the step-board reinforcing plate. This allows the size of the expanded and deformed part to be smaller than the fixing hole, so that even if there are variations in positions of the fixing hole and the expanded and deformed part, the expanded and deformed part can be easily inserted through the fixing hole, and in this state, the fixing hole and the expanded and deformed part can be fixed by expanding the outer periphery of the expanded and deformed part, therefore facilitating the fixing work so as to improve workability.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to steps of passenger conveying equipment, in particular to a step of passenger conveying equipment with colored boundary strips installed on the upper surface of the steps in order to enable passengers to clearly know the standing position or height difference on the steps and the steps of passenger conveying equipment Teleportation equipment. Background technique [0002] In buildings such as railway stations and department stores, there are passenger conveyance facilities such as escalator devices connecting floors. It should be noted that the passenger conveyor described below takes an escalator device as an example, but the present invention is not limited to the escalator device, and can also be applied to moving passages such as moving walkways. Therefore, the steps mentioned here include not only stepped steps but also flat steps. [0003] An escalator device, which is one of such passenger conveying equipment, i...

Problems solved by technology

[0014] However, when using the above-mentioned small-diameter self-tapping screws 24, if the positional accuracy of the threaded hole forming portion 18C formed by burring the end surface 18A of the pedal reinforcement plate 18 varies, there may be problems in which the boundary strip cannot be fixed. The insertion hole 22 of 16 is matched with the threaded hole 18B, and it takes a lot of time and labor to fix the boundary strip 16 with self-tapping screws 24
