MAN-CONVEYOR MOVING HANDRAIL

摘要

There is provided a handrail for passenger conveyor in which it is possible to give a prescribed strength to a junction of a canvas and it is possible to prevent vibrations and noises which might be generated when a driving roller passes by the junction of the canvas. For this purpose, a canvas is provided along an inner surface of an annular core body having a C-shaped cross section, which is formed from a thermoplastic elastomer material, and a surface of each of adjacent end portions of the canvas in a junction is formed to be indented toward the core body side compared to surfaces of other portions which form an inner surface of a handrail. An application cloth is provided between the end portions of the canvas so as to cover a gap formed between the end portions of the canvas. A surface of a portion of the application cloth corresponding to a flat portion of the core body is arranged to be flush with an adjacent surface of the canvas, whereas a surface of a portion corresponding to a curved portion of the core body is arranged to be indented with respect to the adjacent surface of the canvas.
