[0027] A protective belt 2 is installed on the surface of the apron plate 104 on one side close to the step pedal 10, a movable cover plate 201 is installed on the outer end of the protective belt 2, a movable groove 202 is provided on the movable cover plate 201 of the protective belt 2, a main shaft 3 is installed inside the protective belt 2, a first connecting frame 5 and a second connecting frame 7 are installed on the main shaft 3, a first protective plate 4 is installed on the upper end of the first connecting frame 5, a second protective plate 6 is installed on the lower end of the second connecting frame 7, a rotating shaft 8 is installed on the outer sides of the first connecting frame 5 and the second connecting frame 7, and a connecting rod 9 is installed at the bottom of the first protective plate 4.

[0028] In this embodiment, the protective belt 2 is arranged in sections, the lower end of the protective belt 2 is arc-shaped, the upper end of the protective belt 2 is straight, and the protective belt 2 is consistent with the curve of the apron plate 104. The protective belt 2 arranged in sections can ensure the normal operation of the first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 6.

[0029] In this embodiment, the first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 6 are movably connected to the protective belt 2 through the rotating shaft 8, and the first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 6 extend laterally through the movable groove 202 to the outer side end of the apron plate 104. The first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 6 can rotate in the protective belt 2 through the rotating shaft 8. The first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 6 extending to the outer side end of the apron plate 104 can cover the upper ends of both sides of the step pedal 10, so that when the passenger rides the escalator, the passenger's calf area is separated from the apron plate 104, so that the passenger's calf area maintains a distance from the outer gap of the step pedal 10.

[0030] In this embodiment, the first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 6 are distributed up and down, and the first protective plate 4 is wider than the second protective plate 6 in protruding toward the side of the apron plate 104. When a passenger rides on the escalator and stands on the outside of the step pedal 10, the passenger's calf area contacts the first side protective plate 4, and the first protective plate 4 can rotate.
