Passenger conveying device

Abstract

The invention provides a passenger conveying device, which can prevent the accident that the feet of the passenger are clamped between the step and a skirt protection plate even if the shoes, and the like, of the passenger taking an escalator, and the like, are contacted with the skirt protection plate caused by carelessness of the passenger. In the passenger conveying device of the invention, two sides of a kickplate (3) are separately provided with first crosspiece components (8) with a height (L1) protruding from the surface of the kickplate (3), wherein the first crosspiece component (8) is provided with a first outer side surface (8b) facing the skirt protection plate (5), a first inner side surface (8c) which is placed on the opposite side of the first outer side surface (8b) and a first top surface which forms a top part, and a first inclined surface (8a) is formed in at least a part of the range of the first top surface. The cross section of the first inclined surface (8a) is in an inclined shape for leading an inner angle between the first outer side surface and the first inclined surface to be an acute angle, and leading an inner angle between the first inclined surface and the first inner side surface to be an obtuse angle or a right angle.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to passenger conveying equipment such as escalators, and more particularly to a structure of steps capable of preventing passengers' feet from being caught between the steps and skirt guards. Background technique [0002] For example, as shown in Patent Document 1, the existing escalator is configured such that a plurality of steps are connected to an endless step chain installed along the guide rail, and when the step chain is driven, the rollers arranged on the steps roll on the guide rail, As a result, the plurality of steps move between the entrance and exit floors in the upward or downward direction. [0003] In addition, existing escalators are generally constructed with: railings, which are erected on the main body (frame of the truss structure) of the escalator on both sides of the steps; The lower part of the railing is respectively arranged on two sides of the steps in a spaced manner. Furthermore, a ring-shape...

Problems solved by technology

On the other hand, since rubber boots and polyvinyl chloride slippers have a high coefficient of friction on the surface of shoes, once they are clamped, a large inward pull will occur under the action of friction. Therefore, it is possible to be injured before the safety switch of the skirt guard, or fall due to loss of balance
