Abstract: A control or detection arrangement for escalators, moving walks and the like includes a detector, an encoder unit connected to the detector, a wireless transmitter connected to the encoder unit, a wireless receiver, a decoder unit connected to the wireless receiver, and a microprocessor connected to the decoder unit. When an unsafe condition is detected by the detector, the encoder unit generates a trigger signal having at least one unique identifier for the detector. When received, the signal is passed by the decoder to the microprocessor which causes generation of a command signal to, for example, stop motion of the escalator. Alternatively, the inventive arrangement operates according to continuous or periodic transmission modes, which permit the arrangement to monitor operability of the detector, encoder unit, transmitter, receiver and the decoder unit.

Abstract: Escalator steps are attached to their step axles by means of C-shaped clamps which are pivotally mounted on the steps and rotatable thereon to clamping positions where they embrace and clamp the step axles to the steps. One end of the clamp is then bolted to the step so that the clamp pivot pin and bolt will secure the clamps against the step axles. A cam profile is formed on a finger on the clamp, which cam profile guides the step axles into engagement with the step and clamp. A wrench-guiding tube is fixed to the step above the clamp bolt to hold the latter on the step and to ensure engagement between the bolt and an Allen wrench or other tool inserted through the step tread to bolt the clamp in place.

Abstract: The entrance to an elevator cab is provided with wedge gaskets both above and below the cab door opening. The upper gasket is mounted on the door opening header, and the lower gasket is mounted in the door sill. Gasket-engaging brackets are mounted on the top and bottom of each door to snugly engage the gaskets when the cab doors are closed. The closed cab is substantially sealed against penetration by hoistway air so as to provide a quieter smoother ride, especially at high operating speeds. The seal is not established until the doors are completely closed.

Abstract: The step skirts and inner deck panels are fixed against outward deflection by a series of spacer pins which abut the balustrade mounting assembly beneath the deck panels, and which are secured to the skirt and deck panels. When the escalator is erected, the skirt and deck panels will be set relative to the sides of the steps so as to obtain the appropriate gap between the steps and the skirts. An overlapping portion of the deck and skirt panels is formed with an aperture, and a guide sleeve is fixed to the inner surface of the skirt panels in registry with the aperture. A pin is then pushed through the aperture and sleeve until it comes in contact with the balustrade mount assembly. The pin is then secured to the deck and skirts, and prevents deflection of the deck and skirts toward the balustrade mount assembly.

Abstract translation: 台阶裙板和内甲板面板通过一系列间隔销固定，防止向外偏转，这些间隔销与甲板面板下面的栏杆安装组件相邻，并固定在裙板和甲板面板上。 当自动扶梯竖立时，裙部和甲板面板将相对于台阶的侧面设置，以便在台阶和裙子之间获得适当的间隙。 甲板和裙板的重叠部分形成有孔，并且引导套筒固定到裙板的内表面，与孔对齐。 然后将销推到孔和套筒上，直到其与栏杆安装组件接触。 然后将销固定到甲板和裙部，并且防止甲板和裙部朝向栏杆安装组件的偏转。

Abstract: The escalator step has a frame made from metal, and a tread board of metal carried on the frame. The tread board is completely isolated from vibrations imparted to the frame by means of an elastomeric vibration damping material such as rubber which prevents the tread board from directly contacting the frame. The exposed riding surface of the tread board on which passengers stand is metal and is preferably cleated for safety purposes.

Abstract: An elevator system includes an elevator car with a plurality of roller guide assemblies attached thereto. The roller guide assemblies guide the elevator car vertically within a hoistway along a plurality of guide rails. Each roller guide assembly includes a friction damping subassembly to minimize vibration and lateral movement of the elevator car. The friction damping subassembly includes a grounding bar and a friction damper attaching onto a shaft of each roller in the roller guide assembly. The friction damping subassembly dissipates energy and improves the ride quality of the elevator car.

Abstract: A door guide assembly for an elevator cab includes a gib bracket and a sill having a guide groove in the face of the sill. The guide bracket extends down from the door and into the guide groove to guide the motion of the door. The guide groove includes a narrow opening and an expanded section inward of the opening. Engagement between the narrow opening and the gib bracket prevents excessive vertical movement of the door and engagement between the expanded section and the gib bracket prevents excessive lateral motion of the door.

Abstract: A brake mechanism for slowing elevator car doors in an elevator system during an emergency power outage or electrical control malfunction includes a brake shoe activated by a solenoid. During normal operation of the elevator car doors, the solenoid is in activated mode and maintains the brake shoe spaced away from the door pulley. During a power outage or electrical controls malfunction, the solenoid is deactivated and, in cooperation with a compression spring, forces the shoe brake to engage the door pulley to slow down the movement of elevator car doors.
