1"! Transport systems using moving walks consist of an endless chain of individual elements; articulated old interconnected and m.B. on tracks Guided platforms on which the passengers are transported standing and / or standing. With these systems throws the addition on and the descent of the continuously driven moving walkway medium «a moving track file a particular problem; on, there the passengers aua de · Stand on the moving walk speed bsw. brought by this to the speed of Hull become fines, alao an acceleration or sucking be subjected.

To solve this problem, the Sahi Yoroch leagues were prepared, of which the following mentioned selenium parallel arrangement of "honors," driven by different ostuities, on the Daatelg section of the Moving walks with limited life experience, whereby the speed of one of the secondary moving walks is provided is because «the passengers step by step on the final gear

speed (moving walk speed e.g. Hull) (see 3rd USA patent specification 1 054 943, DAS 1 282 050), arrangement of over a certain length next to the dough with increasing or decreasing speed running car (DPS 435 268).

The Sedanke, the platform in the form of a platform, which has been proposed in many variants, deserves special attention one-part or multi-part (rings with different angular speeds) turntable »which is arranged on parts of its periphery next to the moving walkway and has at least approximately the moving walkway speed there, whereas when accessing the Turntable and when leaving it by means of an opening in the center of the rotary disc a lower peripheral speed occurs (cf. USA patents 368 <420 * 1 597 959, 3 339 494). ^

Since the openings in the center of the turntable are considerable in comparison to the outer diameter of the turntable OröBe have, the peripheral speed is at the opening is still considerable and at least by a long way not lull. Bas means “inside” when stepping in and out very unpleasant Qasohvindigkeitsuntarachied and with it a · source of danger. Otherwise it is likely because of the

centrifugal force, which changes with radius, does not at all be comfortable on a rotating disc from the inside to go outside or vice versa. It has therefore already been proposed that the turntable be in the shape of a shell (in the manner of a disc spring), and «was so that with increasing Dmf engage β one waits for speed goes (U.S. Patent 474,657).

In spite of all these improvements, the tile parts remain in the known designs, so that a speed level is overcome at the inner opening of the turntable must be and that sub getting in and out the entire The hatch width of the turntable has to be crossed, as naturally the one entry and exit is in the center, However, the transition to the dough on the outer periphery of the Turntable.

The invention avoids this bad part and solves the problem that climbing the turntable and leaving it can take place without unpleasant side effects for the passengers, namely that there is no speed difference between those of the passengers traversed parts exists, so the passengers can safely enter the fixed platform and that It also makes staying on the turntable more pleasant that their entire width will no longer be passed

got to. According to the invention, this object is achieved by dafi - starting from a gymnastics facility with a moving walkway »which has a large number of articulated, E.B. has guided in rails and preferably continuously drivable platforms, with directly movable intermediate platforms in the form of Turntables and each with an associated platform - it is proposed that the platform be at a different height ) arranged as the driving dough and preferably as Cab-dismantled turntable movable from the height of the moving walk to the height of the platform and around a vertical one. Axis is designed to be rotatable such that the periphery of the turntable opposite the moving walk on the one hand and on the other hand, has the same speed compared to the platform. Hit these measures will achieve that the transfer of passengers on the one hand from the platform to the intermediate platform (turntable) and on the other hand from this onto the moving walkway in both directions without any speed difference between these parts on the Transition points can take place, with which essential danger points are eliminated. Furthermore, passengers can prepare before starting the lifting and rotating movement of the Position the turntable in the area of its periphery; this saves you having to cross the entire width of the turntable while the turntable is rotating.

The inventive measure is beyond that in particular “HaSe economical! The passengers usually open the moving walks anyway have to be brought to a different height (see page 5m high), For which, according to today's view, a mechanical elevator is indispensable. The turntable provided according to the invention takes on the function of a similar elevator, reduced so insofar as the construction costs for this. If the transport facility is two crossing each other, on different ones Has moving walks located at heights, an embodiment of the invention is that the mentioned platform is formed by the second moving walk and accordingly the above-mentioned moving walk is arranged for that Number of revolutions of the turntable per unit of time eo great The fact that the speed at the periphery of the rotating disk corresponds to the height of the respective moving walk ·· its speed. Veist dl · Irensportanlage only a single moving walk up and thus j · naoh several stationary platforms, that is to say at least two end points of the moving walkway, in another embodiment of the invention consists in that the turntable is in their number of revolutions per unit of time from Hull to »u dem The value corresponding to the speed of the moving walk is designed to be controllable, so that the speed is thus controlled at the periphery of the turntable in driving dough Fahreteifgeschwlndifkeit corresponds and in the Buh · des

stationary platform becomes zero, with a steady Deceleration or acceleration can be provided during the lifting movement. Two moving walks cross each other and if at this point there should also be an option to get on and off to or from the outside, both can Embodiments of the invention are combined, with not only the two moving walks, but also the stationary platform are arranged at different heights and the lifting movement of the turntable is made accordingly. The system can waitar to be enlarged.

According to the day of the city. Training of the transport system with the controllable rotating disk allows farner that the stationary platform on the periphery of the turntable is arranged, whereas so far one of the two access tamugliohkeiten. to the turntable only from the center Sagaoaa was. So now the turntable just becomes Enter and exit via the periphery. This eliminates the need to cross the turntable.

In order to fully utilize the capacity of the moving walk a, i.e. aiiea to enable fully continuous operation, is according to a development of the invention between moving walkway and turntable concentric to this and in Height of the moving walkway a arranged partition length in front

The divider ring bridges the rhyme of time in which the turntable carries out the lifting movement sub Sehnsteig to catch the passengers there get on and off su laeeen. At this time you can namely on the one hand passengers already from the moving walkway switch to the divider ring, and then a little later go to the turntable * u, and on the other hand passengers, who have just risen from the rotary disc on the dividing ring, change over to the dough without the lifting movement is hindered.

Because of the reciprocating motion of the rotary disc, it is necessary eowohl the transition from the platform places fixed to the hub as the transition also rom moving walkway on the turntable or the tert-splitting ring by moving handrail absusicher ·. Particularly useful, longitudinal doors are provided on the periphery of the turntable, further at the transition from the stationary platform to the turntable and possibly on the inner side of the plate ring, which can be actuated in the vertical direction. Their control, namely opening by lowering and closing by lifting, is advantageously coupled with the control of the turntable. So that getting on and off the bsw. on the dough and tart dividers

4 and 5 show a boarding station K, in which two moving walks 50 and 51 cross each other at different heights, but which is also used to get on and off from or to the outside. Accordingly, two distributor rings 52 and 53 are also provided at different heights and a stationary platform 62. Ice hub 54 »expanded as a driving cabin ,, has such a lifting device that it can be distributor rings 52 and 53 and set on the AUOH level of the bottom 55 in height of the two doughs Drive 50 and 51 and thus represents. It does not rotate in the lowest stable, whereas the rotation in the two upper positions is adapted to the speed of the distributor ring © 52 and 55. The speed of the moving walks 50 and 51 lying at different heights can also be different, so that the trolley 54 is controlled accordingly. The ring doors 56 to 59 correspond to those according to the previous figures.

Of course, it is also possible to equip the driver's cab with multiple and differently controllable turntables on a multi-story basis. This increases the number of transports per unit of time. In the transport system according to FIG. 2, for example, two turntables can be provided at a vertical distance between the floor and the moving walkway. Hiar-IU would then come up with another stationary platform above the dough. In both end positions of the driver's cab, this can take place at the same time.
