[0023] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0024] like Figure 1 — Figure 5As shown, the utility model provides an escalator safety brake system including a brake frame 100, a pawl 110, an electromagnet 200, a traction assembly 300, a spring 210, a trigger switch 120, a trigger member 400 and a controller (not marked in the figure).

[0025] A pawl 110 is hinged on the brake frame 100, and the pawl 110 can limit the rotation of the main shaft (not marked in the figure) of the traction machine (not marked in the figure) in the escalator machine room (not marked in the figure). The brake frame 100 is provided with an electromagnet 200, and a traction assembly 300 that drives the pawl 110 to rotate is movably provided on the electromagnet 200. A spring 210 is provided in the electromagnet 200 to push the traction assembly 300 to reset. A trigger switch 120 is provided on the brake frame 100, and the traction assembly 300 is movably provided on the electromagnet 200. 00 is provided with a trigger member 400 corresponding to the trigger switch 120, and a controller (not marked in the figure) for controlling the electromagnet 200 is provided in the machine room of the escalator, and the trigger switch 120 is electrically connected to the controller. A mounting frame 130 for mounting the electromagnet 200 is provided on the brake frame 100, and the trigger switch 120 is mounted on the mounting frame 130. When the controller controls the electromagnet 200 to be energized, the electromagnet 200 pulls the traction assembly 300 to move in the direction of the electromagnet. At the same time, due to the ratchet 11 0 is hinged to the brake frame 100, and the traction assembly 300 is hinged to the pawl 110, so that the traction assembly 300 can drive the pawl 110 to rotate relative to the brake frame 100, and when the end of the pawl 110 is located below the top edge of the brake frame 100, the trigger member 400 contacts the trigger switch 120, and the electromagnet 200 controls the traction assembly 300 to stop moving, and the pawl 110 will no longer block the main shaft of the traction machine, so that the traction machine can smoothly drive the main shaft to rotate; when the controller controls the electromagnetic When the iron 200 loses power, the traction assembly 300 is only subjected to the elastic force of the spring 210, so that the traction assembly 300 pushes the pawl 110 to rotate relative to the brake frame 100, and the trigger member 400 is separated from the trigger switch 120. When the end of the pawl 110 extends out of the top of the brake frame 100, the pawl 110 will clamp the main shaft of the traction machine, so that the main shaft of the traction machine can be braked. In this way, it can be ensured that the main shaft rotates automatically when the traction machine is in a stopped state or a damaged state.

[0026] In the prior art, most electromagnets 200 are internally provided with a controller for controlling their operation and a trigger switch 120. In the present invention, the electromagnet 200 is internally provided with only a spring 210 for pushing the traction assembly 300 to reset. The controller is disposed in a chassis of a machine room (not marked in the figure), and the trigger switch 120 is disposed outside the electromagnet 200. In this way, signal interference between the trigger switch 120 and the controller can be avoided, thereby ensuring that the electromagnet 200 can work normally.

[0027] The traction assembly 300 includes a traction rod 310 hinged to the pawl 110, and the traction rod 310 is connected to the electromagnet 200 via a connecting rod 320. An iron rod 220 is movably inserted into the electromagnet 200, and an anti-skid groove 221 is provided on the side of the iron rod 220 near one end of the connecting rod 320. During installation, people need to connect the iron rod 220 and the connecting rod 320 through a nut, and connect the connecting rod 320 and the traction rod 310 through a nut. During this process, people can clamp the anti-skid groove 221 with a wrench to prevent the iron rod 220 from rotating during the connection with the connecting rod 320, and secondly, to prevent the wrench from slipping.

[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] like Figure 1 — Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment is a first structure of the trigger member 400 .

[0030] The trigger member 400 includes a trigger block 410 sleeved on the connecting rod 320, and a truncated cone block 420 is provided on one end of the trigger block 410, wherein the trigger block 410 and the truncated cone block 420 are integrally formed, and two limiting nuts 430 are threadedly connected to the connecting rod 320, one limiting nut 430 squeezes one end of the trigger block 410 away from the truncated cone block 420, and the other limiting nut 430 squeezes one end of the truncated cone block 420 away from the trigger block 410. When the connecting rod 320 moves, The trigger block 410 and the truncated cone block 420 are both mounted on the connecting rod 320 so that the trigger block 410 and the truncated cone block 420 can move with the connecting rod 320, and when the inclined surface of the truncated cone block 420 contacts the trigger switch 120, the trigger switch 120 will generate an electrical signal to indicate that the traction component 300 has moved into place, that is, one end of the pawl 110 extends out of the top edge of the brake frame 100, and thereafter, the signal will be transmitted to the controller to enable the electromagnet 200 to maintain the traction component 300 stationary.

[0031] Embodiment 2

[0032] like Figure 3 — Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment is a first structure of the trigger member 400 .

[0033] The mounting frame 130 is provided with a limit plate 140 for mounting the trigger switch 120. The limit plate 140 has a limit groove 141 at one end thereof facing the pawl 110. The trigger member 400 includes a trigger plate 440 mounted on the connecting rod 320. The trigger plate 440 passes through the limit groove 141 of the limit plate 140. The partial projection of the trigger switch 120 on the limit plate 140 falls into the limit groove 141. When the connecting rod 320 moves, the trigger plate 440 is mounted on the connecting rod 320 so that the trigger plate 440 can move with the connecting rod 320. 20 moves, and when the trigger plate 440 contacts the trigger switch 120, the trigger switch 120 will generate an electrical signal to indicate that the traction assembly 300 has moved into place, that is, one end of the pawl 110 extends out of the top edge of the brake frame 100. Thereafter, the signal will be transmitted to the controller to enable the electromagnet 200 to maintain the traction assembly 300 stationary. During this process, the trigger plate 440 always passes through the limiting groove 141 of the limiting plate 140 to ensure that the trigger plate 440 can stably contact with the trigger switch 120, thereby ensuring that the trigger switch 120 can work normally.
