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.

Abstract: A variable speed handrail for a passenger moving walkway system, comprising a flexible profile comprised of a plurality of fixed blocks each having a grooved structure and circulating along the walkway or escalator and moving with a constant speed. A plurality of handgrips coupled on the flexible profile which move at a substantially identical speed. The handgrips have for their dragging first and second connection devices respectively connected to a constant speed and a variable speed drag mechanism.

Abstract: Handrail for variable speed moving walkway which comprises a flexible belt or profile which circulates over the length of the walkway, with a forward stretch and a return stretch. The profile or band is constituted on the basis of fixed length stretches and, optionally, stretches of variable length, alternating and joined to each other. The fixed length stretches have a profile which defines a toothed arrangement which meshes successively with a series of pulling chains which are arranged between the forward and return stretches of the handrail, mounted between toothed wheels and each one moves at a speed different from the adjacent chains.
