Embodiment Construction

[0016] Figure 1 shows an escalator 1 with a step belt 4 consisting of motor-driven steps 3 and free-running steps 3.1, or a moving walkway with slabs, connecting a first floor E1 with a second floor E2. Depending on the escalator or moving walk, respectively, there is a motor-driven step 3 for every three to twelve or more free-running steps 3.1. The handrail 5 is arranged on the guardrail 6, and the lower end of the guardrail is fixed on the guardrail seat 7. The guardrail seat 7 is supported by the support structure 8 of the escalator 1 or the moving walkway.

[0017] In the following description of this specification, instead of the concept "escalator or moving walk", only "escalator" is used, but the content described is also applicable to moving walkways.

[0018] figure 2 , 3, 4 and 5 show the details of the motor-driven step 3. On the crossbeam 9 of the support structure 8 there are running rails 10 which each have a running surface 10.1 for the step rollers 11 and a...

Abstract

In the case of this escalator the step belt consists of motor-driven steps ( 3) and of free-running steps. Running rails (10) are arranged at transverse means (9) of the support construction and each have a respective running surface (10.1) for the step rollers (11) and a running surface (10.2) for the chain rollers. The step rollers (11) ar e connected with the step body (13) by means of arms (12). The secondary part (14.2) of a linear motor (14) is connected with the step body (13) by means of step pins (15). A guid e rail (16) serving for guidance and drive of the step (3) is provided along the forward running part or return running part of the escalator centrally at the beams (9), wherein the primary part (14.1) of the linear motor (14) is integrated in the guide rail (16). Each motor step (3) is provided with a brake (17) which acts on the guide rail (16).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an escalator or moving walkway consisting of a support structure, a step belt with motor-driven steps and free-running steps or with motor-driven plates and free-running steps for transporting people and / or goods The plate band of the running plate is composed of a guardrail supported by a guardrail seat with a handrail. Background technique [0002] In JP 2001163562 an escalator is disclosed in which each step of the step belt has a drive. The drive means includes a motor mounted on the stepped body, which drives a front and a rear shaft on each side respectively, wherein a pinion arranged on one end of the shaft is coupled with a fixed rack engage. The current supply to the motor is realized by means of contact rails and sliding contacts. [0003] A disadvantage of this type of drive is that the two gears per step will generate excessive noise when meshing with the rack. The steps must be precisely guided so that the gear...
