Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an apron panel splicing structure, specifically a novel apron panel splicing structure applicable to escalators and moving walkways. Background Technology

[0002] To ensure the strength of the skirt panel joints, escalators and moving walkways on the market typically use two symmetrical skirt panel supports to connect two adjacent skirt panels at the joints. These supports are then connected to a truss. This ensures the strength of the skirt panels, but it is difficult to adjust the surface flatness of the skirt panels, and it requires two skirt panel supports, resulting in relatively high costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a new type of apron splicing structure for use in escalators and moving walkways.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A novel apron splicing structure for use in escalators and moving walkways includes a first apron, a second apron, an apron support, and a truss. A first C-shaped member is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the first apron, and a second C-shaped member is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the second apron. The first and second aprons are respectively fixedly connected to the apron support via the first and second C-shaped members, and the outer surfaces of the first and second aprons are located on the same plane. The apron support is fixedly connected to the truss.

[0006] Furthermore, the first apron and the second apron are respectively fixedly connected to the apron bracket by a plurality of first C-shaped pieces and second C-shaped pieces.

[0007] Furthermore, the first apron panel and the second apron panel are respectively fixedly connected to the first C-shaped component and the second C-shaped component by welding studs.

[0008] Furthermore, one side of the first C-shaped piece has an extension protruding towards the second apron plate, and the second apron plate is fixedly connected to the extension of the first C-shaped piece.

[0009] Furthermore, the second apron panel is fixedly connected to the extension of the first C-shaped member by welding studs.

[0010] Furthermore, the first C-shaped component and the second C-shaped component are respectively bolted to the apron board bracket for fixed connection.

[0011] Furthermore, the apron board support is fixedly connected to the truss by bolts.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model only requires one apron board bracket, which is economical. During assembly, the first apron board is connected to the second apron board through the extension of the first C-shaped piece, thereby ensuring that the outer surfaces of the first and second apron boards are flat. The first apron board is fixedly connected to the apron board bracket through the first C-shaped piece, and the second apron board is fixedly connected to the apron board bracket through the second C-shaped piece, thereby enhancing the flatness of the apron board and ensuring the strength of the apron board at the seam. Attached Figure Description

[0015] Figure 2 This is a rear view of the present invention;

[0016] Figure 3 This is a top view of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0018] To illustrate the technical solution described in this utility model, specific embodiments are described below.

[0019] Example

[0020] Please see Figures 1-3This embodiment provides a novel skirt panel splicing structure for use in escalators and moving walkways, including a first skirt panel 1, a second skirt panel 2, a skirt panel support 3, and a truss 4. The inner surface of the first skirt panel 1 is fixedly connected to several first C-shaped pieces 6 by welding studs 5. The inner surface of the second skirt panel 2 is fixedly connected to several second C-shaped pieces 7 by welding studs 5. The first skirt panel 1 and the second skirt panel 2 are respectively connected to the skirt panel support 3 by several first C-shaped pieces 6 and second C-shaped pieces 7. The first C-shaped pieces 6 and the second C-shaped pieces 7 are respectively fixed to the skirt panel support 3 by bolts 8. One side of the first C-shaped piece 6 has an extension 61 protruding towards the second skirt panel 2. The second skirt panel 2 is fixedly connected to the extension 61 of the first C-shaped piece 6 by welding studs 5. After assembly, the outer surfaces of the first skirt panel 1 and the second skirt panel 2 are located on the same plane. The skirt panel support 3 is fixedly connected to the truss 4 by bolts 8.

[0021] During assembly, the first apron 1 is simultaneously connected to the second apron 2 through the extension 61 of the first C-shaped piece 6, thereby ensuring that the outer surfaces of the first apron 1 and the second apron 2 are flat.

[0022] This new type of apron splicing structure requires only one apron support, which is economical. The first apron 1 is fixedly connected to the apron support 3 through the first C-shaped piece 6, and the second apron 2 is fixedly connected to the apron support 3 through the second C-shaped piece 7. Then the apron support 3 is connected to the truss 4, which further enhances the flatness of the apron and ensures the strength of the apron at the joint.

[0023] The apron board bracket 3 used in this new type of apron board splicing structure is formed by bending it in one go after laser cutting, or by stamping it in one go with a mold. The structure is simple and can be used to fix the apron boards on both sides of escalators and moving walkways. It does not require symmetrical manufacturing, has strong versatility, and is economical.

[0024] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
