Description

Electric roads or moving sidewalks

technical field

The present invention relates to a passenger conveying device (conveyer) such as an automatic elevator that produces a step difference between adjacent steps or an electric road that does not generate a step difference between adjacent steps, and particularly relates to a passenger conveying device provided with a step, and The pedal has a cleat body in which a thin steel plate is continuously bent in a wave form and a plurality of parallel cleats are formed along the moving direction.

Background technique

In the past, for example, a pedal with a strip body that continuously bends a stainless steel sheet in a wave form to form a plurality of strips, such as JP-A No. 56-48390 (FIG. 10-FIG. 13) and JP-A No. As shown in the publications ( FIGS. 10 to 13 ), synthetic resin end strip bodies are provided at positions corresponding to the end portions of the strip bodies in the pedal width direction.

According to the prior art described above, since the synthetic resin lath body is located at the end side of the end lath body made of thin steel plate in the width direction, even if it is in contact with the opposing steel plate side edge partition (skirtguard) and The step difference of the joint meeting the side edge partition can also be crossed due to the lubricating effect of the synthetic resin.

However, there is a problem that, in order to install the end strip body made of synthetic resin, it is necessary to spend time to install the end strip body made of synthetic resin on the abutment, or to align it with the strip made of steel plate. In addition, there is a problem that the number of parts used increases.

In order to solve these problems, there has been proposed a technique of providing a steel plate-made lath body on the width direction end portion of the pedal. However, in this case, there will be a problem that the end of the steel plate strip body will float from the abutment because the end portion of the steel plate plate body will directly touch the step difference of the side edge partition. Get up, leave.
