Safety device for a people mover

摘要

A safety device for people movers, particularly for escalators and moving sidewalks, includes at least one carrier plate supporting a comb segment at a first end. The carrier plate is horizontally displaceable relative to at least one carrier element which accommodates the carrier plate, and is pivotable about a horizontal rotational axis which is located at a second end of the carrier plate and cooperates with at least one switch-off device for immobilizing the people mover.
