Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of building construction, in particular to an escalator baffle device. Background Art

[0002] The main function of the escalator handrail is to be a device for people to hold on to when riding the escalator. It allows passengers to grab the handrail to avoid falling in case of sudden stop of the escalator. The height standard of the escalator handrail is 0.9-1.1m (the height of the American standard ASMS is 0.9-1.0m). Although this height is easy to place the handrail considering human mechanics, it cannot completely and effectively prevent people from falling, especially for those who take the escalator with children. This risk is very high. In recent years, similar escalator high-altitude falling accidents have occurred from time to time at home and abroad. At the same time, some passengers did not comply with the escalator riding requirements during the escalator riding process, and stretched their limbs out of the escalator area, which may cause potential safety incidents.

[0003] Existing ways to prevent escalators from falling include: guardrails, interception nets and interception frames. Among them, guardrails are prone to the risk of being inserted or stuck into people's limbs when they are in use; interception nets and interception frames are effective in reducing injuries after a fall occurs, but they cannot prevent accidents before they happen. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to achieve the above technical effects, the utility model provides an escalator baffle device, which includes:

[0006] An escalator body, wherein two protective baffles are respectively arranged on both sides of the escalator body relative to the steps, the bottoms of the two protective baffles along the height direction are fixedly connected to the handrails on both sides of the escalator body, and the tops of the two protective baffles along the height direction are higher than the tops of the handrails.

[0007] Preferably, the protective baffle comprises a plurality of baffle units which are fixedly mounted on a side of the escalator body opposite to the steps and are spliced ​​with each other.

[0008] Preferably, the baffle unit is provided with an edge binding along the circumference direction.

[0009] Preferably, a support is provided at the bottom of the baffle unit along the height direction, the support is fixedly connected to the bottom of the handrail along the height direction, and a groove for inserting and connecting the baffle unit is correspondingly opened on the support.

[0010] Preferably, the baffle unit is an acrylic plate, and the height of the acrylic plate is greater than or equal to 1.5 m.

[0011] Preferably, the baffle unit includes at least one layer of the acrylic plate, and the thickness of each layer of the acrylic plate is greater than or equal to 1 cm.

[0012] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technical effects achieved by the utility model are:
