ABSTRACT:
A travelling walkway for conveying of persons, comprises sections with different speeds and with varying speeds, is formed from pivotably interconnected and driven carriers, wherein the length distances between the carriers are variable and step elements, which overlap one another in running direction of the travelling walkway and are displaceable relative to one another, are present on the carriers. Link chains, which are arranged parallel in longitudinal direction and which are transversely connected at the joints by means of step plates to form an articulated lattice variable in length and width, are used as carriers. Lateral guides and guide rollers produce the stretching and pushing together of the articulated lattice required by changes in width. Grooved and smooth drive belts move the articulated lattice at different speeds as necessary. The articulated lattice is horizontally deflected at both ends of the travelling walkway by means of a circulating device.
