Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an escalator comb mounting structure which can adjust a mounting position of a comb which meshes with a cleat of a step of an escalator.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as an escalator landing, for example, there is one shown in FIG. In the figure, reference numeral 101 denotes a floor plate on the landing side, and a comb plate 102 is provided on the floor plate 101.
02 is provided with a plurality of combs 103. FIG.
As shown in (1), the tip 103a of the comb 103 fixed to the comb plate 102 by the screw 104
05 is engaged with the cleat 105a formed on the tread surface.

The step 105 and the comb plate 102 are installed on an escalator truss. When this installation work is completed, the positional relationship between the step 105 and the comb plate 102 in the truss is determined.

After the positional relationship between the step 105 and the comb plate 102 is determined as described above, the comb plate 102
The tooth 103a of the attached comb 103 may not mesh with the cleat 105a of step 105. In such a case, as shown in FIG.
The comb 103 is forcibly moved with respect to the comb plate 102 by slightly loosening the
I put in. Thus, the tooth tip 103a of the comb 103 is engaged with the cleat 105a of step 105.

[0005]

However, in such a conventional comb mounting structure, the comb plate 10
When the tooth 103a of the comb 103 attached to the gear 2 does not mesh with the cleat 105a of step 105,
Loosen the screw 104 a little and put the comb 103 on the comb plate 10
2, the comb 103 is difficult to move smoothly, and there is a problem that it is difficult to adjust the mounting position.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to make it easier to adjust the position of a comb with respect to a comb plate.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, there is provided a comb plate provided on a floor plate of a landing, an adjusting bar engaged with the comb plate, and a step. A comb that meshes with the cleat, and an adjustment hole formed in the comb plate, and a fastener that passes through the adjustment hole and attaches the comb to the comb plate while sandwiching the comb plate between the comb and the adjustment bar. When adjusting the mounting position with respect to the comb plate, the fastener can move in the adjustment hole together with the comb.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 to 4 are views showing an embodiment of a comb mounting structure for an escalator according to the present invention.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a comb plate provided on a floor plate (not shown) of a landing. Below the comb plate 1, a step 2 provided on a truss of an escalator is located. Step 2 comprises a tread portion and a riser portion, each of which has a cleat 2a.

As shown in FIG. 2, a step 1a is formed at the tip end of the comb plate 1, and a plurality of combs 3 are fitted to the step 1a so as to fit. Com 3
A number of teeth 3a are formed on the distal end side of the teeth, and the teeth 3a mesh with the cleats 2a in step 2. A mounting hole 3b is formed on the base end side of the comb 3, and a screw 4 (fastener) is inserted into the mounting hole 3b.

An elongated hole 5 (adjustment hole) is formed in the step portion 1a of the comb plate 1 so as to coincide with the mounting hole 3b of the comb 3, and the major diameter of the elongated hole 5 is perpendicular to the cleat 2a. It is suitable.

As shown in FIG. 3, an engaging groove 1b having a substantially rectangular cross section is formed on the lower surface of the step portion 1a of the comb plate 1, and the engaging groove 1b has a rectangular cross section. The adjustment bar 6 is engaged. Adjustment bar 6 has screw holes 6
a is formed, and the screw hole 6a matches the long hole 5 and the mounting hole 3b. By screwing the screw 4 passing through the mounting hole 3b and the long hole 5 into the screw hole 6a,
The comb 3 is fixed to the comb plate 1 while the adjustment bar 6 sandwiches the comb plate 1.

The step 3 and the comb plate 1 are installed on the truss of the escalator, and after the installation work is completed, the comb 3 is mounted on the comb plate 1 with screws 4. At this time, even if the comb 3 is attached to the comb plate 1, the teeth 3a of the comb 3 may not mesh with the cleat 2a of step 2. Therefore, the comb 3 is moved with respect to the comb plate 1 to adjust the mounting position.

As shown in FIG. 4, the screw 4 fixing the comb 3 to the comb plate 1 is inserted into the elongated hole 5, so that the screw 4 can move in the elongated hole 5. Then, the comb 3 is moved together with the screw 4 and the adjusting plate 6 so that the teeth 3a of the comb 3 are engaged with the cleat 2a.

[0015]

As described above, according to the present invention, the fastener can move in the adjustment hole together with the comb.
The comb can be smoothly moved relative to the comb plate to engage with the cleat of the step, and the work of adjusting the mounting position of the comb becomes easier.
