Safety brake for an escalator or a moving walkway

摘要

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.
