Abstract: Step for an escalator as well as the method for manufacturing the step, wherein the step is configured as a one-piece die-cast light metal part containing a step plate, a skirt, at least one transverse rib, guide lugs, wherein the guide lugs are fastened solely on the skirt, and drive lugs wherein the drive lugs are each arranged and fastened solely on the step with a connecting web.

Abstract: Step element for an escalator or for a moving walkway, wherein the step element is configured as a one-piece die-cast aluminum part, comprising a step element skeleton and a step plate, wherein the step plate has a step profile, wherein the step profile has webs and grooves running in the travelling direction, wherein the webs are formed by two web arms running practically parallel to one another and by a connecting web face and the grooves run between the webs which are arranged in a row alongside one another.

Abstract: A die cast part of a die casting mold having at least one first component comprising a pressure zone, at least one second component and at least one heat exchange chamber permeated by a fluid and formed by the components for controlling the temperature of the pressure zone. The first component comprises a heat transfer surface integral to at least one wall of the heat exchange chamber and thermally associated with the pressure zone, and the pressure zone bounds at least one region of the gate region. The second component comprises at least one fluid guiding protrusion protruding into the heat transfer chamber and/or a fluid guiding recess open toward the first component. The fluid guiding recess forms at least one portion of the heat exchange chamber and/or the fluid guiding protrusion and/or the fluid guiding recess forms a flow contour surface of the second component in particular adapted to the curve of the heat transfer surface.

Abstract: The invention relates to a die cast part (8, 9, 10, 11, 12) of a die casting mold (5, 6, 7), having at least one first component (13, 15, 17, 19, 21) comprising a pressure zone (24, 25, 40, 60), at least one second component (14, 16, 18, 20, 22) and at least one heat exchange chamber (27, 36, 43, 51, 55, 62) permeated by a fluid and formed by the components (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22) for controlling the temperature of the pressure zone (24, 25, 40, 60), wherein the first component (13, 15, 17, 19, 21) comprises a heat transfer surface (34, 41, 61) integral to at least one wall of the heat exchange chamber (27, 36, 43, 51, 55, 62) and thermally associated with the pressure zone (24, 25, 40, 60).
