Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of sidewalks, more particularly, it relates to a pitless moving sidewalk. BACKGROUND

[0002] The moving sidewalk refers to a walkway with a circulating running pedal, which is mainly used for fixed power-driven equipment for transporting passengers. Unlike escalators, the moving sidewalk does not have a stepped ladder path in the passenger boarding area when running, that is, there is no tread difference between adjacent pedals in the passenger area.

[0003] The pedal of the moving sidewalk in the prior art is generally driven by a special pedal chain, and the rollers on both sides of the pedal move on the fixed guide rail. At the end of the moving sidewalk, the pedal is flipped by a rotating wheel with a large diameter, so that the pedal is switched from the running direction to the opposite direction for circulating movement. In order to complete this flipping process, the depth of the pit at both ends is large, which increases the installation difficulty of the moving sidewalk. SUMMARY

[0004] The present application overcomes the problem in the prior art that the turning of the moving sidewalk pedal is realized by flipping, which requires a large depth of the pit, thereby making the construction difficult. The present application provides a pitless moving sidewalk. In the process of turning the sidewalk pedal, the sidewalk pedal does not flip, but moves downward by translation, so the turning radius is small, the overall structure height is small, and the moving sidewalk can be installed directly on the ground without a pit, thereby reducing the installation difficulty.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application adopts the following technical scheme: a pitless moving sidewalk, comprising a truss, comprising:

In this embodiment, the pushing device is arranged in two groups along the width direction of the truss 1, and the two groups of pushing devices simultaneously and stably push the truss 1 to move towards the end away from the driving host 41, the tensioning frame 51 is more evenly stressed at both ends, and the tensioning effect is better.
