As shown in Fig. 1, the elevating plate 1 of the escalator according to the present invention is made of a plate such as a stainless steel sheet so as to sufficiently support the load of the passenger as in the conventional elevating plate.

According to a feature of the present invention, the lifting plate (1) is formed with a billboard mounting groove (3) to be mounted on the billboard 11 to be described later. The seating groove 3 may be formed to penetrate the lifting plate 1 (see FIG. 2), or may be formed into a recessed recess by pressing the lifting plate 1 (see FIG. 4). In the former case, as shown in FIG. 2, the mounting groove 3 may be formed to have a step 5 so that the billboard 11 may be firmly placed on the step 5.

In the seating groove 3, a billboard 11 displaying a predetermined advertisement is fitted to fit snugly, and the surface of the elevating plate 1 and the billboard 11 is installed in a state in which the billboard 11 is installed in the seating groove 3. The depth of the seating groove 3 and the thickness of the billboard 11 are selected so that the entire flat surface is formed so that a step is not formed between the elevating plate 1 and the billboard 11. It is not caught.

The billboard 11 is not particularly limited as long as the billboard 11 can be displayed while protecting a predetermined advertisement content and can withstand the load of the passenger. As an example of the billboard 11, an advertisement sheet 13 such as a plastic film sheet printed with various information necessary for a passenger, a product advertisement, or a decorative pattern is formed so that the strength of the billboard 11 is not easily broken and not worn by the load of the passenger. The cover is covered with a protective plate 15 of a transparent material and the printed content of the advertisement sheet 13 therein may be viewed to use an advertisement board configured to be viewed by a passenger. Here, the advertisement sheet 13 is formed by fasteners (fastener) on the rear surface of the protective plate 15 to be fixed thereto, or by forming a slit in the protective plate 15 to be inserted into the slit, etc. Can be fixed at

As another example of the billboard 11, a billboard incorporating a display panel 13 'such as a well-known display board, LED display panel, LCD display panel, etc. in the protective plate 15 may be used instead of the advertisement sheet 13.

As the protective plate 15, it is preferable to use a polycarbonate resin plate having excellent strength and a transparent material, and the advertisement board 11 is elevated to a fastener 17 such as a countersunk head bolt while being mounted on the seating groove 3. It is fixed to the plate (1).

A passenger detection sensor 21 for detecting a passenger approaching the elevating plate 1 for the ride is provided at or near the elevating plate 1. The passenger detection sensor 21 is not particularly limited as long as the lighting means 31 and the sound reproducing means 41 operate by sensing a passenger's approach to the elevating plate 1 through a controller 51 to be described later. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, a photoelectric switch is used to detect an infrared shielding by a passenger approaching the elevating plate 1 and emit a constant signal, or the circuit is applied when the weight of the passenger is applied. A mat switch (not shown) to connect may be used.

When the passenger's gaze reaches a position where the gaze of the passenger reaches the billboard 11, the sensor 21 emits a signal so that the lighting means 31 and the sound reproducing means 41 can be turned on. In the case where the photoelectric switch is used as the passenger sensor 21, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, the light projecting part 23 of the photoelectric switch is configured to emit infrared rays toward the entrance of the passenger. ) May be embedded below the advertisement board 11 of the elevating plate 1, and the light receiving unit (not shown) may be installed on the ceiling at a position in line with the light transmitting unit 23. When the mat switch is used as the passenger sensor 21, it may be installed at an appropriate position in front of the elevating plate 1. In Figs. 1 to 3, reference numeral 25 denotes a window for passing the light of the light transmitting portion 23.

When the passenger sensor 21 detects a passenger's approach to the elevating plate 1, the detection signal supplies power to the lighting means 31 and the sound reproducing means 41 to operate them (see Fig. 3).

The lighting means 31 illuminates the billboard 11 so that the passenger's eyes are focused on the billboard 11 and the advertisement contents of the billboard 11 are clearly visible. As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, in the case of using the billboard 11 in which the advertisement sheet 13 is fixed to the protection plate 15, the lamp 31 is replaced with a conventional lamp 33 as the lighting means 31. By installing on the back side so that the billboard 11 is illuminated from below, the advertisement contents of the advertisement sheet 13 can be properly highlighted to the passenger.

When the display panel 13 'such as an electric signboard, an LED display panel, an LCD display panel, etc. is used as the advertising board 11 in the protective plate 15, the light emitting function of the advertising board 11 provides the effect of clarity of advertisement contents and the attention of passengers. As a result, a separate luminaire such as a lamp is not necessary (see Fig. 4).

The sound reproducing means 41 selects various sound signals stored in the sound data ROM and plays them through the speaker 43. The sound reproducing means 41 converts the announcement, product advertisement, or music suitable for the advertisement contents displayed on the billboard 11 into the synthesized sound. The speaker 43 may be installed on, for example, the side surface or the ceiling of the elevating plate.

As shown in FIG. 3, the interaction between the passenger sensor 21, the lighting means 31 and the sound reproducing means 41 is controlled by the controller 51. The controller 51 is provided with a timer 53 for turning off the lighting means 31 and the sound reproducing means 41 which are started by at least the action of the sensor 21 after a predetermined time. After the lighting means 31 and the sound reproducing means 41 are operated, the passengers are transported to a position where the lighting means 31 cannot be seen, and then the lighting means 31 is turned off. By turning off the sound reproducing means 41 after completion, the lighting means 31 and the sound reproducing means 41 are unnecessarily operated.

The controller 51 inputs a sound to be reproduced by the sound reproducing means 41 and displays it on the advertisement board 11 when the display board 11 includes an electric sign, an LED display panel, an LCD display panel, and the like as the advertisement board 11. The input panel 55 and the monitor 57 for inputting and monitoring a character or a figure to be input and at the same time inputting an operating time of the timer 53 are installed to provide the advertisement board 11 and the sound reproducing means 41. It is desirable to be able to freely control the content and time of the advertisement to be displayed. Reference numeral 59 denotes a memory for storing the image and sound to be displayed by the electronic signboard and the sound reproducing means 41 as the advertisement board 11.

On the other hand, when the escalator is running, the operation may sometimes be stopped for maintenance.In general, the escalator stops by placing a prohibition guide bar connecting two posts in chains on the lifting plates at the inlet and the outlet of the escalator. It is forbidden to inform passengers that it is being used.

The elevating plate 1 of the escalator according to the present invention, the advertising plate 11 can be upright at an appropriate angle from the elevating plate 1 to inform the passengers of the stop of the escalator while blocking the entry of the passengers.
