    摘要: There is provided a method of renewing a passenger conveyor that is capable of preventing the passenger conveyor from being unavailable for a long time period when the passenger conveyor is renewed in a stepped manner. The method of renewing a passenger conveyor includes a safety device update process of updating an existing safety device to a new safety device in the passenger conveyor, and a drive machine and control panel update process of, after the safety device update process, updating an existing drive machine of the passenger conveyor to a new drive machine and updating an existing control panel of the passenger conveyor to a new control panel.

    摘要: A monitoring system for a passenger conveyor is provided. The passenger conveyor includes a motor for driving the passenger conveyor and an inverter for supplying current to the motor. The monitoring system includes a current sensor for detecting the current supplied to the motor; a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the motor; a data collecting device for receiving detected data from the current sensor and the temperature sensor; and a controller connected to the data collecting device. The controller is configured to calculate an idle operation motor torque during an idle operation of the passenger conveyor based on current and temperature detected during the idle operation; and determine that a fault exists in the passenger conveyor when a difference between the idle operation motor torque and a reference motor torque exceeds a predetermined threshold.

    摘要: A safety system for a moving walkway having a continuous loop of steps driven by a drive system and missing step detector adapted to detect a missing step from the loop of steps. The safety system comprises: an interrupt unit adapted to control the drive system to disable automatic movement of the loop of steps upon detection of a predetermined event and adapted to subsequently control the drive system to enable automatic movement of the loop of steps only after a safety procedure has been completed without a missing step being detected by the missing step detector. The safety procedure comprises causing a step to traverse an entire loop under manual control of the drive system.

    摘要: The invention relates to an electronic safety device and a conveyor system comprising the same. The electronic safety device has a safety input for receiving a safety signal, the electronic safety device being configured to terminate its operation responsive to absence of the safety signal in the safety input. The electronic safety device comprises an operation-preventing circuit configured to detect an operational anomaly in the safety input, the operation-preventing circuit comprising a switch adapted to short the safety input when the operational anomaly is present in the safety input.

    摘要: A braking method for a passenger transportation system, which system is embodied as an elevator, escalator, or moving walk, is initiated upon the occurrence of a technical problem in the passenger transportation system. An activation signal activates a service brake of the passenger transportation system and an emergency stop is initiated. In addition to the activation of the service brake, the activation signal is immediately fed to a brake control of the passenger transportation system, so that, upon the occurrence of the activation signal, the brake control switches a drive machine of the passenger transportation system into a motor-brake operating mode. The drive machine is only switched by the brake control into a braking-torque-free state when a braking effect of the service brake on moving components of the passenger transportation system is detected and transmitted to the brake control.

    摘要: A device and method for detecting a misaligned or missing step of a conveyor are disclosed. The missing step detector includes various sensors for detecting the drive speed of the conveyor and for detecting the presence of pallets or steps. The sensor output signals are correlated to determine fixed values characteristic of the specific conveyor in question. Using the fixed values as reference, the missing step detector is able to effectively monitor the conveyor for misaligned or missing steps independent of conveyor speed and time.
