[0002] An escalator is a stationary, electrically driven device with circulating steps used to transport passengers upwards or downwards at an incline. It carries passengers to different floors, similar to a horizontally running conveyor belt, but with an inclined angle.

[0003] As an important carrier of public transportation, the safety and reliability of the escalator's tread structure are directly related to passenger safety. Existing escalator treads lack a real-time monitoring mechanism. After prolonged use, the internal reinforcing ribs of the treads are prone to deformation due to fatigue, which affects passenger safety. Moreover, escalator treads often require manual disassembly and inspection to detect these issues, which reduces the safety of escalator treads. Therefore, this application proposes a tread structure suitable for escalators to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a tread structure suitable for escalators, including a tread body 1;

[0031] The monitoring mechanism 2 located inside the pedal body 1 includes two mounting blocks 21 symmetrically arranged inside the pedal body 1; two connecting rods 23 slidably arranged inside the two mounting blocks 21; and a sensing component 26 detachably arranged between the outer sides of the two connecting rods 23, with the sensing component 26 located between the outer sides of the two mounting blocks 21.

[0032] The prompting mechanism 3 is detachably located on the inside of the pedal body 1, and the prompting mechanism 3 is electrically connected to the sensing component 26.

[0033] In this embodiment, a tread structure applicable to escalators is provided. The monitoring mechanism 2 can monitor the structure of the tread body 1. When the structure of the tread body 1 is deformed, the monitoring mechanism 2 will transmit a signal to the prompting mechanism 3, which will prompt the staff so that the staff can replace or maintain the tread body 1 in a timely manner, thereby improving the safety of escalator use.

[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 2-3 As shown, the pedal body 1 in the preferred embodiment of this utility model further includes a light-transmitting hole 11, which is opened on the rear surface of the pedal body 1; two slots 12, which are symmetrically opened on the inner side of the pedal body 1 along the light-transmitting hole 11; and a number of reinforcing ribs 13, which are evenly distributed on the front surface of the inner side of the pedal body 1.

[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the monitoring mechanism 2 in the preferred embodiment of this utility model further includes two mounting slots 22, which are respectively opened on the rear surface of two mounting blocks 21, and two connecting rods 23 are respectively symmetrically and slidably disposed inside the two mounting slots 22; two connecting blocks 24 are respectively disposed on one end of the two connecting rods 23 near the sensing component 26; and two return springs 25 are respectively sleeved between the outer sides of the two connecting rods 23.

[0036] More specifically, the two ends of the return spring 25 are respectively located on the inner side of the mounting groove 22 and the outer side of the connecting block 24, so that the return spring 25 has better stability during use.

[0037] Furthermore, the sensing component 26 includes a support block 261, which is detachably disposed between the outer sides of the two connecting blocks 24; two limiting grooves 262, which are respectively opened on the upper and lower surfaces of the support block 261, and the two connecting blocks 24 are respectively located inside the two limiting grooves 262; an FBG sensor 263, which is disposed inside the support block 261, and the prompting mechanism 3 is electrically connected to the FBG sensor 263.

[0038] More specifically, the light wave emitted by the FBG sensor 263 is located in front of the reinforcing rib 13 on the inner side of the pedal body 1, so that the FBG sensor 263 can monitor the reinforcing rib 13.

[0039] This embodiment provides several preferred embodiments of the monitoring mechanism 2. The FBG sensor 263 monitors the reinforcing rib 13 on the inner side of the tread body 1. When the tread body 1 deforms, the reinforcing rib 13 deforms accordingly, and the FBG sensor 263 detects the abnormality. Subsequently, the FBG sensor 263 transmits a signal to the alerting mechanism 3, enabling the alerting mechanism 3 to alert the staff, allowing them to promptly replace and maintain the tread body 1, thereby improving the safety of the escalator. Simultaneously, when the tread body 1 needs to be replaced, pulling the two connecting rods 23 will cause the connecting rods 23 to move... The connecting block 24 is pulled out from the inside of the limiting groove 262, so that the support block 261 can be removed from the inside of the pedal body 1. Then, the two connecting rods 23 of the new pedal body 1 are pulled. The connecting rods 23 will drive the connecting block 24 to squeeze the return spring 25. Then, the support block 261 is placed between the outer sides of the two connecting blocks 24. Then, the connecting rods 23 are released. Under the action of the return spring 25, the connecting rods 23 will automatically enter the inside of the two limiting grooves 262. In this way, the support block 261 can be set on the pedal body 1, so that the FBG sensor 263 can be recycled and reused, reducing the usage cost of the monitoring mechanism 2.

[0040] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the prompting mechanism 3 in the preferred embodiment of this utility model includes two connecting buckles 31, which can be snapped into the inner side of two slots 12 respectively; and an LED light 32, which is disposed between the outer sides of the two connecting buckles 31.

[0041] Furthermore, the LED light 32 is electrically connected to the FBG sensor 263, and the axis of the LED light 32 coincides with the axis of the light-transmitting hole 11. This allows the light emitted by the LED light 32 to shine out from the light-transmitting hole 11, enabling staff to quickly see the indicator light.

[0042] This embodiment provides several preferred embodiments of the prompting mechanism 3. When the FBG sensor 263 detects deformation of the tread body 1, the FBG sensor 263 transmits a signal to the LED light 32, causing the LED light 32 to change color. This allows maintenance personnel to observe the color of the LED light 32 from the outside when maintaining the escalator, thus quickly knowing the status of the tread body 1 and avoiding the need to disassemble the escalator and then observe and maintain the tread body 1, thereby improving the maintenance efficiency of the escalator. At the same time, the two connecting clips 31 can be pulled out from the two slots 12 and then snapped into the inside of the two slots 12 of the new tread body 1, so that the LED light 32 can be recycled and reused, reducing the usage cost of the escalator tread.

[0043] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
