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: Example drive systems for handrails of walkways and moving stairs may comprise a plurality of carriages. In some examples, each carriage may comprise a body with several leading rollers that roll along a guide that defines a handrail path. The carriage may further comprise a locking/release mechanism for selectively coupling the carriage to a drive chain of the handrail. The locking/release mechanism may comprise a hook configured to move between an engagement position wherein the carriage is coupled to the drive chain and a disengagement position wherein the carriage is uncoupled from the drive chain. In some cases, a position of the hook may be controlled by a wheel that travels along a cam profile.

Abstract: Conveyor system for the transportation of passengers (21)/goods (22) formed by a bearing structure (1a), a loading/unloading area (1b) and a traction equipment (4a, 19, 20), which also comprises mobile platforms (3, 6, 7, 8, 16, 26) dragged by the traction equipment (4a, 19, 20), for the reception and transport of passengers (21)/goods (22) from a loading area to an unloading area. The mobile platforms (3, 6, 7, 8, 16, 26) have side walls (25) to define a compartment and prevent passengers (21)/goods (22) from interfering with the guiding device (4b) thereof in a carryway, from a loading area (1b) to an unloading area (1b), and in a return way, from an unloading area (1b) to a loading area (1b).
