Abstract: The invention relates to a moving walkway formed by a series of pallets (1) with a rectangular contour having a passable surface and connected with drive means. The pallets are consecutively connected to one another along the end sections of their adjacent parallel edges, by means of connection devices defining hinges with a pin perpendicular to the direction of movement of the pallets, and have between said sections means defining, in the forward movement path of the walkway, mutual supports between coplanar consecutive pallets.

Abstract: The invention relates to a turnaround curve system for a chain conveyor system, having a chain having linear traction which is driven in turnaround sections by means of turnaround guides (7). The turnaround guides (7) have a geometry obtained by means of a family of curves corresponding to paths defined by six points (1-6), the six points (1-6) corresponding to six linkage positions of consecutive links of the chain in the turnaround sections. The system allows the turnaround sections to be more compact and extend the life of the rollers of the chain, since the rollers are subjected to smaller loads.

Abstract: The invention relates to improvements introduced in invention patent number 200602335 relating to a safety system for moving handrails comprising a plurality of moving handgrips (1), the system having a retractable stop (5) inside the railing (3), a support structure (7), joined to the railing (3), having a guide (9), a lowerable body (11) with respect to the structure (7) and having a guiding rod (12) with a runner (13) and a roller (14) moving parallel to the handgrips (1) and a driving element (15) of the body (11), one of the ends (15b) of which is rotatably connected to the support structure (7) and the other end (15a) is rotatably connected to the lowerable body (11), such that when the retractable stop (5) is pushed by the hand of the user, the rod (12) is moved and the runner (13) is released from the guide (9), the lowerable body (11) being lowered due to the effect of the driving element (15).

Abstract: The invention relates to a safety device for moving handrails consisting of a stop (5), arranged at the entrance of the handrail (1) assembled on a fixed railing (3) finishing the handrail, the stop (5) being connected to a rod (7) which can move longitudinally and is retractable against a spring (9), the device comprising a hinged outer lid (15) having locking pawls (19) for an inner lid (18), such that the outer lid (15) automatically tends to the open position due to the effect of the springs (17) affecting the hinge (16) when the stop (5) is retracted and the locking means (10) of the latter are released, whereas the inner lid (18), upon being released, also tends to the open position by simple gravity. In this way when a user does not let go of the handrail (1) when it penetrates the railing (3), he or she drives the stop (5) with his or her hand and the lids (15) and (18) are automatically opened, preventing injury to the hand of the user and causing the stop of the handrail through a microswitch (23).

Abstract: The invention relates to a pallet assembly (100, 101) for a transport system for the movement of passengers/goods formed by a moving endless belt based on said pallet assemblies (100, 101). Each assembly has: a driven pallet (101) which is driven by a drive pallet (100), both pallets (100, 101) being hinged to one another according to an axis perpendicular to a movement direction D of the belt. The pallets (100, 101) have a rocking beam (13) having: an end hinged to a functional surface according to an axis perpendicular to the movement direction D; another end having: at least one concave arc (130) perpendicular to the longitudinal movement direction D in the form of a claw; to form a meshing: in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal movement direction D; between drive equipment (300, 300?) and the drive pallet (100) through the concave arc (130).

Abstract: The invention relates to a carriage for driving handrails of walkways and moving stairs, comprising a body (6) in the form of a vertical plate in which leading rollers (7) are assembled; two swinging locking pawls (12-13) for locking with a drive chain; a free turning wheel (24) intended to be supported against a cam profile in order to cause the pawls (12-13) to swing between an operative vertical position and an inoperative horizontal position; and an arm (8) intended to engage with the variable pitch screws.

Abstract: The invention relates to a transport system for the movement of passengers/goods formed by a moving endless belt having: a series of pallet assemblies (100, 101); drive equipment (300, 320, 321, 310, 311) for transmitting a drive movement from actuating equipment (400) to the pallet belt (100, 101) in a low speed section located in an embarking/disembarking area of the endless belt; drive equipment (300?, 310?, 311?) for transmitting a drive movement from actuating equipment (400?) to the pallet belt (100, 101) in a high speed section located in a middle area of the endless belt; drive equipment (300?) for transmitting a drive movement from actuation equipment (400?) to the pallet belt (100, 101) in a transitional speed section located between the embarking/disembarking area and the middle area of the endless belt.

Abstract: The invention relates to a safety device for transport systems comprising walkways and stairs by means of moving elements (1, 2) with longitudinal movements in which there is the possibility that said moving elements (1, 2) undergo tilting movements in relation to an operating direction. A safety counter-guide (7) is arranged on the moving elements (1, 2), preventing the upwards tilting of the moving elements (1, 2) and further having a lower sensor (8) in the form of a band that generates a stop signal for the system upon coming into with moving elements (1, 2). Therefore the moving elements (1, 2) cannot tilt in an upwards direction, preventing possible risks both for the user and for the mechanical system, and due to a possible tendency to said tilting caused by any anomaly, the system is automatically stopped.
