Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical safety protection, in particular to a gap cover between an apron plate and an inner cover plate of an escalator and a moving walkway. Background Art

[0002] Escalators and moving walkways generally contain apron plates and inner covers, which are generally sheet metal parts. When passengers ride on escalators or moving walkways, their body parts are close to these seams, which may cause the passengers' trouser legs and the edges of their long skirts to be caught in the gaps between the steps and the apron plates. At the same time, the relative movement may cause cutting damage to the passengers, so an anti-pinch device is generally installed between the inner cover and the apron plate.

[0003] At the connection gap between the existing apron plate and the inner cover plate, brush strips are generally added to prevent people from approaching this position. However, as a soft material, the brush strips are prone to accumulate dust, impurities, etc., which may affect the cleanliness and aesthetics of the product surface after long-term use. In some special occasions, the equipment is not allowed to install anti-pinch devices, and other methods are needed to protect these joints. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is that brush strips are generally installed at the connection gap between the existing apron plate and the inner cover plate, which affects the overall appearance of the equipment, or in some special occasions, the equipment is not allowed to install anti-pinch devices, which may cause cutting damage to passengers during relative movement.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, a technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a gap cover between an apron plate and an inner cover plate of an escalator and a moving walkway, comprising an apron plate body, an inner cover plate body being fixedly connected to the top end of one side of the apron plate body, a protective strip being arranged at the joint between the inner cover plate body and the apron plate body, the end of the protective strip close to the apron plate body being at a flat bottom angle, and the end of the protective strip close to the inner cover plate body being at an inclined bottom angle.

[0006] Through the above technical scheme, the inclined bottom angle can match the inclined arc of the inner cover plate, and the flat bottom angle makes the protective strip fit the apron plate more closely, so that the protective strip fits the apron plate and the inner cover plate more closely, reducing the sealing gap, improving the sealing effect of the protective strip, and effectively preventing the occurrence of pinching and scratching incidents.

[0007] The utility model is further configured that a through hole is opened on the protection strip, a side of the protection strip away from the apron plate body is an arc-shaped boss, and the cross-section of the inner cover plate body is L-shaped.

[0008] Through the above technical solution, by setting through holes on the protective strip, the amount of material used can be effectively reduced, the production cost can be reduced, and material savings can be achieved without affecting the structural stability. The arc-shaped boss reduces the stimulation and friction of sharp edges on the human body, and reduces the risk of skin abrasions or other injuries caused by contact with the protective strip.

[0009] The utility model is further configured that a cavity is provided on a side of the protection strip close to the apron plate body, a groove is provided on a side of the protection strip away from the apron plate body, and the protection strip is made of nylon or aluminum alloy.

[0010] Through the above technical solution, the cavity is set up so that the protection strip can be installed more tightly and firmly, the sealing effect of the protection strip is improved, and the possibility of loosening or falling off of the protection strip is reduced. The groove can ensure that the edge of the screw countersunk head is lower than the circular boss on the upper part of the protection strip.

[0011] The utility model is further configured that an apron plate inlay strip is fixedly connected to one side of the apron plate body, and a plate nut is fixedly connected to the apron plate inlay strip.

[0012] The utility model is further configured that a countersunk screw is arranged in the groove, and the countersunk screw is threadedly connected to the plate nut.

[0013] The utility model is further configured such that the protective strip, the inner cover plate body and the apron plate inlay strip are fixedly connected by countersunk screws, and the apron plate body and the inner cover plate body are both made of stainless steel.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0015] The utility model provides a nylon protective strip at the joint of the inner cover plate body and the apron plate body, which effectively prevents pinching and scratching between the apron plate and the inner cover plate, thereby reducing the risk of accidental injury to passengers during riding. Compared with the brush strip, the nylon material has higher wear resistance and is more durable, and can maintain a good sealing effect for a long time, reducing replacement and maintenance costs. At the same time, the surface of the nylon material is smooth and not easy to accumulate dust, impurities, etc., and is relatively easy to clean. It can keep the apron plate and the inner cover plate clean and hygienic, and can improve the overall aesthetics of the product. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
