Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of moving walkway handrails, and more particularly to an automatically controlled handrail force-increasing device. Background Art
[0002] Moving walkways are essentially elevator systems that run on a flat surface, designed to optimize the mobility experience of pedestrians and luggage carriers. They are commonly used in large public areas and greatly promote the efficient flow of people. These devices not only greatly reduce the physical burden on pedestrians, but also improve the convenience and accessibility of the overall space through their seamless connection design.
[0003] The handrails on moving walkways are an important part of the system. These handrails move slowly with the movement of the elevator, providing a stable support point for users, whether they are elderly people, children or pedestrians carrying heavy objects, to maintain balance and ensure safety and comfort during travel. The design of handrails often takes into account ergonomic principles to ensure a natural and comfortable grip. Some handrails also incorporate anti-slip materials to further enhance friction and improve safety.
[0004] However, precisely because of its extensive service to the public, especially in public areas with high traffic volume, the handrails of moving walkways have become frequently touched surfaces that are prone to the accumulation of bacteria and viruses, especially during flu season or epidemics. Although many public places regularly disinfect and clean handrails, maintaining their continued high standards of hygiene in the face of continuous traffic has become a problem that needs to be solved urgently.
[0005] In addition, moving walkways, as bridges connecting different functional areas, often lead to environments with strict requirements on hygiene conditions. In this context, the cleanliness of moving walkways is directly related to the hygiene issues of these sensitive areas. Especially during haze days or sandstorms, pollutants such as dust on the soles of pedestrians' shoes will be carried to elevators or cleaner areas, and such problems also need to be improved.

The installation position of the first roller 1 is generally at the entry position or the exit position of the handrail, preferably the entry position.
[0029] A first transmission member is fixedly connected to the right side of the first roller 1, a second shaft 9 is rotatably connected to the base 3, a second transmission member 11 is fixedly connected to the second shaft 9, the first transmission member and the second transmission member 11 are frictionally transmitted, preferably the first transmission member is a disc 6, teeth 7 are evenly distributed on the outer circumference of the disc 6 located on the right side, the second transmission member 11 is a gear, the disc 6 is meshed with the second transmission member 11 through the teeth 7, when the first roller 1 rotates, it can drive the second transmission member 11 to rotate, and the second transmission member 11 drives the second shaft 9 to rotate.
[0030] Further explanation, two second rollers 15 are arranged below the first roller 1, one in front and one in the back. Each second roller 15 is rotatably connected to a bearing 16 with a seat, and the bearing 16 with a seat is fixed to the ground. A conveyor belt 17 is mounted on the two second rollers 15. The conveyor belt 17 is horizontal or inclined. Preferably, the second roller 15 located at the front side is lower in height, so that the conveyor belt 17 is higher at the back and lower at the front. The second shaft 9 and the second roller 15 located at the rear side are connected by a third transmission member, so that the second shaft 9 drives the second roller 15 to rotate, and the second roller 15 drives the conveyor belt 17 to rotate. Cleaning materials are detachably connected to the outer surface of the conveyor belt 17 for cleaning the soles of pedestrians. Fabric or flannel with bristle material can be installed on the conveyor belt 17 by Velcro connection. Preferably, the second shaft 9 and the second roller 15 located at the rear side are each fixed with a pulley, and the two pulleys are connected by belt sleeves to achieve synchronous transmission.
[0031] To further illustrate, the left and right ends of the first roller 1 are provided with a reduced diameter section 4, so that the first roller 1 forms a stepped structure, the outer surface of the first roller 1 at the reduced diameter section 4 is provided with a thread, the first roller 1 is fixedly connected with a plug-in 5, the extension direction of the plug-in 5 is parallel to the axis of the first roller 1, a disc 6 is sleeved on the reduced diameter section 4, the plug-in 5 is inserted in the disc 6, each reduced diameter section 4 is threadedly connected with a sleeve 8, the two sleeves 8 respectively abut against the outer ends of the two discs 6, and the two discs 6 are used to be close to the inner and outer ends of the handrail to play a limiting and / or transmission role.
[0032] Combination Figure 7, a third second roller 15 is arranged between the two second rollers 15, and a seat bearing 16 is rotatably connected to the third second roller 15. The conveyor belt 17 is also mounted on the third second roller 15, which plays the role of supporting the center of the conveyor belt 17. A third container 18 is arranged below the conveyor belt 17, and the third container 18 can be located at the front side or the rear side of the third second roller 15. A guide block 19 is fixed to the third container 18, and the guide block 19 is matched with the middle seat bearing 16. The other side of the third container 18 away from the guide block 19 is attached to the adjacent seat bearing 16, thereby limiting the freedom of the third container 18 in the front and rear directions. A second scraper 20 is fixed to the upper end of the third container 18, and the second scraper 20 is against the cleaning material on the conveyor belt 17 to scrape off the dust, and the dust falls into the third container 18.
[0033] Further explanation, combined with Figure 6 A first container 10 with an upper opening is arranged below the first roller 1. A liquid guide plate 13 is arranged in the first container 10. The liquid guide plate 13 is close to the bottom of the first roller 1. The center of the liquid guide plate 13 is fixedly connected and connected to a tube. The bottom of the tube is fixedly connected and connected to a water pump. The water pump sends the cleaning fluid in the first container 10 into the tube and pumps it onto the liquid guide plate 13. The liquid guide plate 13 is an arc-shaped downwardly concave. After the fluid flows out of the liquid guide plate 13 to clean the first roller 1, the first shaft 2 is hung with a cleaning fluid, thereby cleaning and disinfecting the handrail. The cleaning fluid can be a common disinfectant. After the water pump is turned off, the cleaning of the handrail can be stopped. Because the liquid guide plate 13 is located within the opening range of the first container 10, the cleaning fluid on the liquid guide plate 13 will flow back to the first container 10.
[0034] The first scraper 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the first container 10. The first scraper 12 is used to contact the bottom of the first roller 1. For the convenience of description, the outer side of the first scraper 12 is the side away from the inside of the first container 10. If the first roller 1 rotates clockwise, the first scraper 12 should be fixedly connected to the front part of the upper end of the first roller 1, so that the cleaning fluid flowing back from the first roller 1 flows down along the outer side of the first scraper 12, and finally flows into the second container 14 fixed to the lower end of the first container 10 through the outer wall of the first container 10. The second container 14 is plugged into the base 3 from left to right, so that the second container 14 has only the degree of freedom in the left and right directions. The base 3 is plugged with a fastener that passes through the second container 14 in the front and rear directions. The fastener can be a pin, thereby limiting the degree of freedom of the second container 14 in the left and right directions. This is to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the first container 10 and the second container 14.
