Abstract: A conveyor system for displacing passenger/goods formed by a moving endless belt comprising a plurality of pallet assemblies and drive means to transmit a drive movement to the pallet belt. The pallets have a functional surface opposite to the support surface and having first meshing means. The drive means comprise second meshing means designed to interact with the first meshing means, so that the drive pallets, are driven by the drive means by means of a meshing between the first meshing means and the second meshing means and to drive said pallet belt in the movement direction D. The drive means have a linear motor aligned with the movement direction D.

Abstract: An example drive system for a transportation system may include an actuator for transmitting an actuation motion from a motor, a first pulling device configured to transmit a pulling motion from the actuator to moving parts of the transportation system in a transition speed section situated between an embarking/disembarking zone and a middle zone, a second pulling device configured to transmit a pulling motion from the first pulling device to the moving parts of the transportation system in a high-speed section in a middle zone of the transportation system. In some examples, the first pulling device may be a carriage.

Abstract: A bidirectional moving walkway with a tightening system for tightening the band of pallets of the walkway includes two tightening units (6, 6?) arranged at each end of the moving walkway and each including a locking system for locking the movable frame (7) of each end tightening unit (6, 6?). Two drive units (3, 3?) are each arranged at either end of the moving walkway. The locking system of each tightening unit (6, 6?) of either end of the walkway is configured for locking the operation of the tightening unit (6, 6?) when the drive unit (3, 3?) of its same end is operated, such that the moving walkway always works with the tightening unit operated by the passenger entrance end and locked by the passenger exit end.

Abstract: A longitudinal joint forms a surface usable as a passage between first and second passage surfaces (2,3) adjacent to one another, usable as walking user passage, the distance between both in the longitudinal direction being variable. The longitudinal joint (1) has transverse slats (4) attached to one another, with a substantially planar upper surface (5), each being attached to the contiguous slats by a pivot point (6) with respect to which they can rotate preserving the continuity of the surface of the longitudinal joint (1). The slats (4) rest on a series of support surfaces (8,9,12), a certain number of slats being hidden under the first passage surface (2), below the level of the upper surface (5), by the relative rotation to one another with respect to the pivot point (6), depending on the distance between first and second passage surfaces (2,3).

Abstract: A moving walkway including a band (1) of pallets (2) moveable on side guides (4-5) and a drive mechanism formed by a pair of drive wheels (6) having a common shaft (7). The wheels have free-rotating peripheral rollers (9) engaging with formations (15) of the pallets (2) on their inner surface.

Abstract: A drive system for driving moving walkways, includes a drive unit (2-2?) arranged at each end of the walkway (1), a controller (3-3?) for controlling each drive unit and overall control (4) for controlling the set of drive units (3-3?).

Abstract: Drive system for escalators and moving walkways, comprising a set of wheels (3) carrying free-rotating rollers (4), with parallel axes to that of the wheels, and one or more shafts (5) perpendicular to the movement direction of the belt of steps or pallets (1), in which said roller wheels are mounted. The shafts (5) and wheels (3) are arranged between the moving forward way and the return way of the belt of steps or pallets (1). The wheels (3) engage through the rollers (4) with the steps or pallets (1) through engaging formations (7) of said belt of steps or pallets (1). The shafts (5) connect to a driving assembly through a transmission mechanism.
