Abstract: A plate belt of a moving walkway has plates arranged in succession in a movement direction and between two mutually parallel link chains formed by chain links of different widths. Each chain link is connected with one of the plates by at least one fastening device. The fastening devices include a fastening bolt and a cup washer, wherein the cup washer has a cup base ring and a cup collar encircling the cup base ring. The inner height of the cup collar corresponds with the thickness of at least one chain link strap of the chain link and the inner diameter of the cup collar is greater than the outer diameter of the region of the fastening bolt bearing against the cup base ring in the mounted state.

Abstract: A moving walkway pallet is composed of a series of plates of a plate belt arranged to circulate between two deflecting regions of the walkway. Each plate has a base body with a base surface to which a tread element can be attached. The plates are pivotally connected to each other along pivot axes (SA) extending across a width (B) of the plates. The pivot axis is located either in a plane containing the base surface or above the side of the plane, remote from the base body. The base body has a width base body cross-section having a geometric center of gravity arranged below the base surface.

Abstract: A fastening device for connecting a step of an escalator or a pallet of a moving walkway with at least one traction means. The fastening device includes a shoulder element, a wedge type connector and a projection. The shoulder and projection are each oppositely located on the step/pallet and traction means to be joined. The shoulder is provided with an opening through which, in the mounted state of the fastening device, the projection extends. The wedge type connector is positioned at least partially between the shoulder and the projection to engage the with the projection to fix the step or pallet against the traction means in a pre-tensioned manner.

Abstract: The invention relates to a step (4) of an escalator or a plate (14) of a moving walkway. This comprises a tread element (40) and a support body (30) with a base (31), wherein the tread element (40) comprises at least two sub-elements (41, 42, 43) and each sub-element (41, 42, 43) is bounded in the areal extent thereof by two parallel end sides (45, 46) extending in the intended direction (X) of movement of the step (4, 304) or plate (14, 114) and two edge sides (47, 48, 147, 148) arranged orthogonally to the end sides (45, 46). The at least two sub-elements (41, 42, 43) are arranged in a predetermined sequence on the base (31) of the support body (30). Sub-elements (41, 42, 43) arranged adjacent to one another respectively bear against one another by one of the end sides (45, 46) thereof, wherein a sub-element (41, 42) previously arranged on the base (31) is secured to the support body (30) by the respective sub-element (42, 43) subsequently arranged on the base (31).

Abstract: A step of an escalator or a pallet of a moving walk has a supporting body with a base and at least one tread-element with a tread-surface wherein, on an underside that faces away from the tread-surface, the at-least one tread-element has at least one fastening protrusion. In the assembled state, the at-least one fastening protrusion protrudes through an opening in the base. Arranged on the side of the base that faces away from the tread-element, at least partly between the base and the fastening protrusion, is at least one fixing element. The fixing element fixes the tread-element against the base in a pretensioned manner.

Abstract: The invention relates to a base body (31) of a moving-walkway plate (30) of a plate belt (16), wherein the plate belt (16) in its operational position is arranged to circulate between two deflecting regions and includes a plurality of identically shaped moving-walkway plates (30). The moving-walkway plates (30) are pivotably interconnected in succession. The base body (31) has a base surface (33) for attachment of at least one tread element (32), wherein through the pivotable connection with a directly succeeding moving-walkway plate (30) of the plate belt (16) a pivot axis (SA) extending in the width (B) is defined for the base body (31). The pivot axis (SA) is arranged in a plane containing the base surface (33) or above the side of this plane remote from the base body (31). The base body (31) has along its width (B) a base body cross-section having a geometric centre of gravity (S) arranged below the base surface (33).

Abstract: A safety brake of an escalator or moving walkway includes at least one locking member, which is arranged so as to adopt a release setting or locking setting by means of a pivot movement. The locking member in the locking setting engages in at least one moved part of the escalator or the moving walkway and blocks this. In addition, the safety brake comprises a linear guide by which the locking member is linearly guided between a first position and a second position. The linear guide is mounted on a stationary part of the escalator or the moving walkway by a pivot axle.
