Description

  The present invention relates to an escalator that connects floors of a building such as a department store or a railway station building, and a passenger conveyor typified by an electric road used for movement in an airport or the like, and more particularly to a frame structure of the passenger conveyor.

  Generally, the frame of a passenger conveyor is divided into two or more and transported and assembled at an installation site so that it can be loaded on a truck or the like or can be carried into a building.

  As a structure of the division part of this frame, Patent Document 1 discloses a structure in which an engagement main body is provided at an end of each divided frame, both engagement main bodies are abutted, and these are sandwiched between engagement bodies. doing.

  Here, in addition to the weight of the frame, the passenger conveyor frame drives the steps on which the passengers ride, the rails on which the steps travel, the handrails that the passengers grab, the balustrades that support the handrails, and the steps and handrails. It is a member for supporting the weight of equipment such as a driving device. The frame is fixed to a building or the like by a receiving beam provided at the end in the longitudinal direction. That is, the frame is supported at two points on both ends, and is not supported in the middle region. In a passenger conveyor having a long stroke, an intermediate support portion may be provided at an intermediate portion of the frame, and the intermediate support portion may be fixed to the building. In this case, the frame is supported at three or more points, but the frame is supported discretely. Thus, since the frame is supported discretely, it is necessary to firmly connect the divided portions of the frame.

  In the division structure of a general passenger conveyor, L-shaped steel is arranged and welded to the end faces of each of the divided frames in a substantially vertical direction and one surface is parallel to the division surface. The parallel surfaces are bolted together. The bolt that firmly connects the frames is a large-diameter bolt, and is firmly fastened by a large tool. In order to operate this large tool, it is necessary to secure a space around the bolt, and it is necessary to increase the distance between the surface on which the bolt hole of the L-shaped steel is not provided and the bolt. Here, the force acting on the L-shaped steel is a load acting on the surface where the bolt hole is not provided from the frame and a load acting on the bolt hole from the bolt. Accordingly, a moment acts on the L-shaped steel according to the distance, and a moment acts on the frame as a reaction force. The strength required of the frame and the L-shaped steel is increased according to this moment, and there is a problem that the mass of the frame is increased and the cost is increased.

  Furthermore, in the division | segmentation part structure of the general passenger conveyor, the large tool had to be used and the subject that workability | operativity was bad occurred. The division part structure of the passenger conveyor of patent document 1 and patent document 2 is disclosed with respect to this subject. However, these divided part structures have the following problems.

  That is, at the installation site where the connection work between the frames is performed, the frame of the passenger conveyor that is divided and carried in is lifted by a chain block or the like, and the divided portions are connected in that state. At the time of this work, in the structures of Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, there is no mechanism for adjusting the relative position of the divided frames in the direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the frame, and the length of the chain block or the like is finely adjusted. However, after adjusting the relative positions of the frames, it was necessary to attach the engaging body or to fasten the bolts. For this reason, there is a problem that skill is required for adjusting the relative position and the working time becomes long.

  Here, between the support points of the frames that are discretely supported, the load state is generally like a support beam at both ends, so that compressive stress occurs on the top surface side and tensile stress on the bottom surface side. Occurs. Therefore, in the structure of Patent Document 1, there is a problem that the engaging body on the bottom surface side of the frame cannot be attached unless the frames are brought into close contact with each other.

  There are also many installation sites where the distance between a passenger conveyor and an adjacent structure such as a building wall is narrow. Therefore, in the structure of Patent Document 2, an opening is provided in the frame in the vicinity of the dividing portion so that the bolt outside the frame can be fastened. Since the strength of the frame is reduced at the opening, it is necessary to relatively increase the strength of the frame to compensate for this, and there is a problem that the cost and the weight are increased.

  In the case of the structure of Patent Document 3, it is possible to adjust the relative position of the divided frames in the direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the frame by using the positioning reamer hole and the positioning pin for accuracy reproduction. The work of tightening the positioning pin for increasing the diameter of the positioning pin for reproducing the accuracy is necessary, and there is also a problem that a work space for that purpose is required.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the passenger conveyor of the present invention is a passenger conveyor in which divided frames are connected by a dividing portion, and is divided on the bottom surface side where a tensile load acts on the frame in the dividing portion. a tapered rod for connecting the frame to each other, are fixed to the frame, and a receiving portion for receiving the tapered rod, said tapered rod having a taper at both ends, the receiving unit, with the tapered A taper that receives the taper portion of the rod, and a notch that enables the taper rod to be attached and detached from the inside of the frame, and when the taper rod receives the tensile load, The taper portion is positioned by being guided by the taper of the receiving portion.

The passenger conveyor assembly method of the present invention is a passenger conveyor assembly method in which the divided frames are connected by a dividing unit, and the passenger conveyor is divided into the divided frame and the frame in the dividing unit. A tapered rod that connects the divided frames on the bottom surface side on which a tensile load acts; and a receiving portion that is fixed to the frame and receives the tapered rod; and the receiving portion includes the tapered rod. A notch part that is detachable from the inside of the frame, and the tapered rod is inserted from the inside of the frame into the receiving part through the notch part in a state in which the divided frame is lifted After fitting, and then lowering the divided frame, the tapered rod receives the tensile load, and the tapered rod Tapered portions provided at both ends of the soil, characterized in that it is positioned by being guided by the taper provided in the receiving unit.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a passenger conveyor capable of connecting frames after being automatically positioned.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In each drawing and each embodiment, the same or similar components are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted.

  FIG. 1 is an example of an overall view of an escalator frame 1 installed between different floors of a building in a passenger conveyor. The frame 1 has a pair of left and right side frames connected by horizontal beams, and there are receiving beams 2 for fixing the frame 1 to a building at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the frame. The frame 1 has a structure that can be divided by the dividing unit 3.

  Detailed views of the dividing unit 3 according to the first embodiment of the present invention are shown in FIGS. 2 is a front view of one of the pair of left and right side frames as seen from the inside of the frame and in the same direction as FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA of FIG.

  The side frame 4A has a top surface 41A, a lateral surface 42A, and a bottom surface 43A. Similarly, the side frame 4B has a top surface 41B, a lateral surface 42B, and a bottom surface 43B. Then, the side frame 4 </ b> A and the side frame 4 </ b> B are connected at the dividing portion 3. In that sense, the dividing unit 3 is also a joint unit.

  A flange 10A is provided on the top surface 41A side of the frame longitudinal direction end of the lateral surface 42A of the side frame 4A. The flange 10A is welded to the top surface flat plate 11A and the horizontal surface flat plate 12A. And the top surface side flat plate 11A is bolted to the top surface 41A, and the horizontal surface side flat plate 12A is bolted to the horizontal surface 42A.

  Similarly, a flange 10B is provided on the top surface 41B side of the frame longitudinal direction end of the lateral surface 42B of the side frame 4B. The flange 10B is welded to the top surface side flat plate 11B and the horizontal surface side flat plate 12B. The top surface side flat plate 11B is bolted to the top surface 41B, and the horizontal surface side flat plate 12B is bolted to the horizontal surface 42B.

  Further, a taper pin 13 is fixed to the flange 10A, and a taper hole 14 into which the taper pin 13 is fitted is formed in the flange 10B.

  On the other hand, a receiving portion 20A is provided on the bottom surface 43A side of the frame longitudinal direction end portion of the lateral surface 42A of the side frame 4A. The receiving portion 20A is welded to the lateral surface side flat plate 21A. The lateral surface side flat plate 21A is bolted to the lateral surface 42A, and the bottom surface side flat plate 22A is bolted to the bottom surface 43A.

  Similarly, the receiving portion 20B is provided on the bottom surface 43B side of the frame longitudinal direction end portion of the lateral surface 42B of the side frame 4B. The receiving portion 20B is welded to the lateral surface side flat plate 21B. The lateral surface side flat plate 21B is bolted to the lateral surface 42B, and the bottom surface side flat plate 22B is bolted to the bottom surface 43B.

  And the taper rod 30 is attached so that receiving part 20A, 20B may be connected. The tapered rod 30 has tapered portions 31A and 31B at both ends thereof, and the tapered portions 31A and 31B are tapered such that the diameter increases from the center of the rod to the rod end.

  The receiving portions 20A and 20B have tapers 23A and 23B that receive the tapers of the tapered portions 31A and 31B when the tapered portions 31A and 31B are fitted, respectively. Here, the taper angles of the tapers 23A and 23B are preferably the same as the taper angles of the taper portions 31A and 31B. It is not necessary to be exactly the same, and the same angle here includes substantially the same angle that can receive the taper of the taper portions 31A and 31B. Further, the receiving portions 20A and 20B have notches (openings) 24A and 24B that allow the tapered rod 30 to be attached and detached from the inside of the frame, whereby the tapered rod 30 is formed on the receiving portions 20A and 20B. It can be attached from the inside of the frame, or the tapered rod 30 can be removed from the inside of the frame. 3 shows an example in which the opening direction of the notches 24A and 24B (the attachment / detachment direction of the tapered rod 30) is the frame inner side direction, the opening direction may be, for example, upward or obliquely upward. . Even in this case, in addition to the effect that the taper rod 30 can be detached from the inside of the frame, there is an effect that the tapered rod 30 is difficult to fall off.

  Next, a method for connecting the divided parts at the installation site will be described with reference to FIGS.

  First, as a first step, each of the side frames 4A and 4B that are separately loaded is lifted by a chain block or the like, and the end portions of the bottom surfaces of the flanges 10A and 10B are brought into contact with each other. At this time, the tip of the taper pin 13 is shaped to enter the taper hole 14 during this operation. As a result, rough positioning is possible.

  Next, as a second step, each of the side frames 4A and 4B is further lifted by a chain block or the like, and the divided portion 3 is lifted higher than the state after installation in which the side frame 4A and the side frame 4B are straight. As a result, since the flange 10A and the flange 10B are in contact with each other, the interval between the receiving portion 20A and the receiving portion 20B approaches, and the interval becomes shorter than the state after installation. This state is shown in FIG.

  Thereafter, as a third step, the tapered rod 30 is inserted from the inside of the frame into the receiving portions 20A and 20B through the notches 24A and 24B. This state is shown in FIG. At this time, since the gap between the receiving portion 20A and the receiving portion 20B is narrow, the tapered rod 30 can be easily inserted without using a tool or the like.

  Next, as a fourth step, the suspended state is released by removing the chain block or the like, and the divided frame 1 is lowered. As a result, since the tensile stress acts on the bottom surface side of the frame 1 as described above, the side frames 4A and 4B move so that the interval between the receiving portion 20A and the receiving portion 20B is widened, and the tapers 23A and 23A, respectively. 23B and taper parts 31A and 31B abut. At this time, since the contact surface is tapered, the relative position between the taper 23A and the taper portion 31A and the relative position between the taper 23B and the taper portion 31B are automatically adjusted to a desired state. At this time, a lubricant may be applied to the contact surface. Thus, since the taper rod 30 which does not need to be fastened is used, a fastening work for positioning is not necessary. On the other hand, the flange 10 </ b> A and the flange 10 </ b> B come into contact with each other, and the entire taper pin 13 is fitted into the taper hole 14. Since the contact surface between the taper pin 13 and the taper hole 14 has a taper shape, the relative position between the two is also automatically adjusted to a desired state. In this way, the relative position between the side frame 4A and the side frame 4B automatically becomes a desired state. Note that the receiving portions 20A and 20B are fixed in a state where they are positioned in the manufacturing factory of the frame 1, and the positions positioned in the manufacturing factory can be reproduced even at the installation site.

  In order to enable the connection method as described above, the end portions of the lateral surfaces 42A and 42B are set such that the interval between the bottom surface 43A and the bottom surface 43B is wider than the interval between the top surface 41A and the top surface 41B. Is preferably provided with a triangular cutout 44. More specifically, it is desirable to provide a triangular notch 44 with the bottom side ends of the flanges 10A and 10B as apexes and the bottoms 43A and 43B of the frame 1 as bases.

  As described above, in the passenger conveyor to which the present invention is applied, when a lifting tool such as a chain block is excluded, the divided portions can be connected without using a tool, and the divided frames can be positioned with each other. There is an effect that can be.

  Furthermore, as described above, since the connection work can be performed inside the frame, the work can be easily performed even if the wall or pillar of the building is close to the passenger conveyor. Therefore, there is an effect that the passenger conveyor to which the present invention is applied can be installed in a narrower space than before.

  Here, as described above, since the frame 1 is in a loaded state like the support beams at both ends, the tensile stress in the frame longitudinal direction is dominant on the bottom side of the side frames 4A and 4B. That is, generally, it can be considered that a tensile load is acting on the centroid of the region where the tensile stress acts. A moment corresponding to the distance between this centroid and the central axis of the tapered rod 30 acts on the tapered rod 30. Accordingly, it is preferable that the centroid and the central axis of the tapered rod 30 coincide with each other. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the centroid may be disposed so as to pass through the inside of the tapered rod 30. Even in this case, since the distance between the centroid and the central axis of the tapered rod 30 is small, the moment can be kept small. If there is no problem in strength, the centroid may pass outside the tapered rod 30. The positional relationship between the centroid and the tapered rod 30 is the same in the other embodiments.

  Moreover, in the structure of Example 1, since a tool is not required for attachment of the tapered rod 30, a space for operating the tool is also unnecessary, and the tapered rod 30 can be disposed so as to contact the side frames 4A and 4B. It becomes possible. On the other hand, as described above, in a general passenger conveyor, it is necessary to secure a distance between a bolt and a side frame that connect side frames so that a large tool can be operated. Therefore, compared to a general passenger conveyor, the passenger conveyor to which the present invention is applied can shorten the distance between the side frame and the member that connects the side frames, and acts on the side frames 4A and 4B. Thus, the required moment can be reduced and the required strength can be reduced. That is, the passenger conveyor to which the present invention is applied has an effect that the weight can be reduced and the cost can be reduced.

  Since the radius of the tapered rod 30 is determined so as to withstand the tensile load and the moment, there is a limit to reducing the diameter. As a result, depending on the shape of the side frames 4A and 4B, that is, the ratio between the height of the lateral surfaces 42A and 42B and the width of the bottom surfaces 43A and 43B, the distance between the centroid and the side frames 4A and 4B is tapered. It may be smaller than the radius of the rod 30. With respect to the shape of the side frames 4A and 4B, the structures of the following second and third embodiments are preferable.

  FIG. 6 is a detailed view of a dividing portion according to the second embodiment, and FIG. 7 is a sectional view taken along line BB in FIG. Embodiment 2 will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7, parts having the same functions as those in FIGS. 2 to 5 are given the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted. FIG. 6 shows a portion equivalent to FIG. The tapered rod 30 is arranged so that the central axis 32 thereof coincides with the centroid 5 of the region where the tensile stress acts on the side frames 4A and 4B. Here, unlike Example 1, in Example 2, the distance between the centroid 5 and the side frames 4A, 4B, specifically, the distance between the centroid 5 and the lateral surfaces 42A, 42B is tapered. It is smaller than the radius of the rod 30. Therefore, the receiving portions 20A and 20B are present at positions overlapping the side frames 4A and 4B. In order to avoid the interference between them, a part of the lateral surfaces 42A and 42B of the side frames 4A and 4B is cut off, and a part of the receiving portions 20A and 20B is placed in the cut out opening (including a case where it is a notch). A part of the tapered rod 30 is arranged. The receiving portions 20A and 20B are fixed to the lateral surface side plates 21A and 21B via connecting members 25A and 25B in which a part of the lateral surface side plates 21A and 21B protrudes into the cut openings.

  FIG. 8 is a detailed view of a dividing portion according to the third embodiment, and FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC in FIG. A third embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In this case as well, parts having the same functions as those explained so far are given the same reference numerals and explanations thereof are omitted. FIG. 8 shows the same part as in FIG. The tapered rod 30 is arranged so that the central axis 32 thereof coincides with the centroid 5 of the side frame 4A, 4B where the tensile stress acts. Also in the third embodiment, the distance between the centroid 5 and the lateral surfaces 42 </ b> A and 42 </ b> B is smaller than the radius of the tapered rod 30. Therefore, the receiving portions 20A and 20B are welded to the lateral surface side plates 21A and 21B inside the frame and the lateral surface side plates 26A and 26B outside the frame. The lateral surface side flat plate 21A on the inner side of the frame and the lateral surface side flat plate 26A on the outer side of the frame are arranged so as to sandwich the lateral surface 42A of the side frame 4A and are bolted. Similarly, the bottom surface side flat plate 22A inside the frame and the bottom surface side flat plate 27A outside the frame are arranged so as to sandwich the bottom surface 43A of the side frame 4A, and are bolted. The same applies to the receiving portion 20B, the lateral side flat plate 26B outside the frame, and the bottom side flat plate 27B outside the frame.

  As described above, the center axis 32 and the centroid 5 are made to coincide with each other, and the necessary strength of the tapered rod 30, the receiving portions 20A and 20B, and the side frames 4A and 4B is reduced, and the weight and cost can be reduced. .

  Since a tensile load is applied to the tapered rod 30 described in the first to third embodiments, both are constrained by a frictional force generated between the tapers 23A and 23B and the tapered portions 31A and 31B. However, if the frame is vibrated in the vertical direction due to the walking / running of the passenger or an earthquake, and the frame 1 is displaced in the lifting direction, the tensile load decreases. Or taper 23A, 23B and taper part 31A, 31B may leave | separate and a tensile load may be lose | eliminated. The frictional force decreases due to such a decrease in the tensile load, and the tapered rod 30 may fall off due to frame vibration caused by the walking / running of the passenger or an earthquake.

  10 to 14 show examples of structures for preventing the taper rod from falling off against such a phenomenon. 10 to 14 are enlarged views of the vicinity of the receiving portion 20A of FIG. 2, FIG. 6, or FIG. 8, and are described by rotating so that the central axis of the tapered rod 30 is in the left-right direction on the paper surface. ing. The receiving portion 20B side in these drawings has the same structure.

  FIG. 10 is a detailed view of a first example of a structure for preventing the taper rod from falling off. In the structure of FIG. 10, after attaching the tapered rod 30 to the receiving portion 20A, the drop prevention plate 40 that blocks the opening by the notches 24A and 24B is fixed to the receiving portion 20A with bolts 41, and the tapered rod 30 is restrained. To do. Since the bolt 41 can be fastened from the inside of the frame, it does not become an obstacle even when the escalator is installed in a narrow place. Further, since the bolt 41 suppresses the movement of the tapered rod 30 due to frame vibration, it can be a small-sized bolt, and the workability deterioration due to the addition of the bolt 41 is small.

  A second example of the structure for preventing the taper rod 30 from falling off is shown in FIGS. 11 is a front view seen from the same direction as FIG. 10, FIG. 12 is a plan view, and FIG. 13 is a side view. A groove 28 is machined in the receiving portion 20A, and a stopper 42 is inserted into the groove 28 to close the opening formed by the notches 24A and 24B, thereby constraining the tapered rod 30. The tip 43 of the stopper 42 is bent to prevent the stopper 42 from falling off. Even in this structural example, the stopper 42 can be inserted and bent from the inside of the frame, so that the installation location of the passenger conveyor is not limited. Furthermore, since the tip 43 suppresses the movement of the stopper 42 due to frame vibration, it can be made a thin plate and can be bent without using a tool, so that the workability deterioration due to the addition of the stopper 42 is small.

  FIG. 14 is a detailed view of a third example of the taper-rod falling prevention structure. The tapered rod 30 is provided with a flange 32A, and a collar 33A is attached between the flange 32A and the receiving portion 20A. The collar 33A has a C-shaped cross section and has a structure in which the tapered rod 30 is fitted after being attached to the receiving portions 20A and 20B. Since the collar 33A is sandwiched between the flange 32A and the tapered portion 31A together with the receiving portion 20A, the displacement of the tapered rod 30 is restrained.

  Next, the separation preventing mechanism for the flanges 10A and 10B described in the first to third embodiments will be described. The flanges 10A and 10B are normally pressed against each other because they are portions to which compressive stress is applied, but there is a possibility that they may be separated by the frame vibration as described above. Examples of the separation preventing structure for this phenomenon are shown in FIGS.

  FIG. 15 shows a first example of the flange separation preventing mechanism, and is a detailed view seen from the same direction as FIG. The clip 15 sandwiches the flanges 10A and 10B, and the bolt 16 fastened to the flange 10A prevents the clip 15 from falling off.

  16 shows a second example of the flange separation preventing mechanism, which is a detailed view seen from the same direction as FIG. 15, and FIG. 17 is a sectional view taken along the line DD in FIG. The flanges 10A and 10B are provided with grooves 17A and 17B, respectively, and the tips 18A and 18B of the clip 15 are fitted in the grooves 17A and 17B. The clip 15 is attached to the flanges 10A and 10B after the distance between the tips 18A and 18B is increased.

  In any structure, the attachment of the clip 15 can be performed from the inside of the frame, so that the installation place of the passenger conveyor is not limited. Further, since the bolt 16 is for preventing the clip 15 from dropping, it can be a small-sized bolt, and the workability degradation due to the addition of the bolt 27 is small.

  In the above description, the connection between the flanges 10A and 10B and the top plate 11A and 11B and the horizontal plates 12A and 12B and the connection between the receiving portions 20A and 20B and the horizontal plates 21A and 21B are welding. The top surface side flat plates 11A and 11B, the horizontal surface side flat plates 12A and 12B, the horizontal surface side flat plates 21A and 21B, the bottom surface side flat plates 22A and 22B, and the side frames 4A and 4B are connected by bolts. The same effect can be obtained by connecting by other methods such as welding, bolt fastening, rivet fastening, or by integration by press molding. Further, the flanges 10A and 10B and the receiving portions 20A and 20B are directly connected to the side frame without using the top surface flat plates 11A and 11B, the horizontal surface flat plates 12A and 12B, the horizontal surface flat plates 21A and 21B, and the bottom surface flat plates 22A and 22B. The same effect can be obtained by connecting to 4A and 4B.

  In addition, although Example 1-5 demonstrated the example applied to the escalator as an example of a passenger conveyor, it is not limited to this, It is also possible to apply to an electric road.
