Abstract: A method and a corresponding device for exchanging a component in a passenger transport system are proposed. In this case, a digital double dataset, which is digitally stored in a computer and can also be processed, exists parallel to the passenger transport system, wherein said digital double dataset comprises data concerning physical properties of the passenger transport system. The method comprises the steps of physically exchanging the component by removing an existing component from the passenger transport system and replacing the existing component with a replacement component; and exchanging component data concerning physical properties of the component in an at least partially automated manner by replacing component data concerning physical properties of the existing component with component data concerning physical properties of the replacement component in the digital double dataset.

Abstract: The application relates to a method for detecting and monitoring the mechanical condition of an escalator or a moving walkway with at least one revolving band and at least one detecting device. The method includes (i) preparing at least one spatial image of at least one section of the revolving band, (ii) selecting at least one region of the spatial image, (iii) comparing the selected region with at least one comparison region, wherein the comparison region is defined by three-dimensional coordinates and represents a virtual space which can be clearly assigned to the selected region, and (iv) generating an alarm signal if the selected region differs from the comparison region by surpassing predetermined limits.

Abstract: The application relates to a method for modernizing an existing escalator or an existing moving walkway. The method can include removing all the electrical and mechanical parts from the existing framework of the existing escalator or of the existing moving walkway, the existing framework having two framework side parts and a base structure connecting said framework side parts, and the framework side parts being connected to each other by means of cross members disposed at a distance from the base structure; and replacing the existing cross members of the existing framework with new cross members, the two framework side parts of the existing framework being connected to each other in a mutually stabilising manner at least one point at a distance from the base structure of the framework, during replacement of the cross members.

Abstract: An escalator or moving walkway comprises two access areas. The escalator or the moving walkway comprises components generating thermal losses that are arranged in at least one of the access areas in a component room. The escalator or the moving walkway comprises at least one walkable access module, which is arranged adjacent to the component compartment. The access module comprises a cavity, wherein at least one opening exists between the component compartment and the cavity, through which the thermal energy of the components generating thermal losses can be transferred from the component compartment to the cavity.

Abstract: A track module of an escalator or a moving walkway comprises at least two support structures and at least one guide rail. Each support structure includes at least two supports and at least one cross strut, wherein the cross strut is arranged between the at least two supports and connects these together. Each support has a foot fastening region which, in the installed state, is fastened to a carrying structure. Moreover, a balustrade fastening region, to which in the installed state at least a part of a balustrade is fastened, is formed at each support, so that static and dynamic loads acting on the balustrade are transmissible directly to the carrying structure by way of the supports.

Abstract: An escalator or a moving walkway has two access regions, each with a comb plate, and a conveying region arranged between the access regions. The conveying region extends between the two comb plates of the access regions. At least one projection projects into the conveying region at at least one stationary part of the escalator or moving walkway. At least one monitoring sensor is arranged at least partly in the at least one projection.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for testing, in a destructive or non-destructive manner, femoral head prosthesis having a blind hole for receiving the end of a femoral prosthesis rod. The device includes a frame provided with a shaft projecting from the frame, said shaft having a substantially complementary shape to said bore and being associated with means for applying a pressure onto the inner bore wall when a femoral head is fitted onto said shaft. This device is characterised in that the shaft includes a sealed jacket having at least one deformable lateral wall portion, and a socket fitted onto said jacket and provided with elastic fingers that extend substantially facing said deformable wall portion of the jacket, and in that said jacket defines an inner chamber in communication with means supplying a pressurized fluid, such that the fluid pressure is transmitted to the inner bore wall via the deformable wall and the elastic fingers.
