This article introduces escalator step chains, which are crucial components in escalators, responsible for connecting and propelling the steps. The content covers their function, material composition, manufacturing techniques, production process, and an analysis of their pros and cons.

Escalators are a common feature in many public spaces such as shopping malls, airports, and train stations. While most people may not pay attention to the small comb-like structures on the sides of escalators, these comb plates serve an important function in ensuring passenger safety and efficient escalator operation.

Knowing and using the escalator handrails well can provide us with a good experience when using the escalator and provide a good guarantee for our personal safety.

Escalator step chain is an important component of an escalator that requires proper maintenance to extend its lifespan. Regular cleaning, proper lubrication, tension adjustment, regular inspection, and proper use are some of the tips to maintain escalator step chain to extend its lifespan. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions for maintenance and to seek professional help when necessary. By following these tips, you can extend the lifespan of your escalator step chain and ensure that it operates smoothly and safely.

Let's check how to change the escalator step chain.

Three major challenges and opportunities for elevator components in the 21st century: improving energy efficiency and environmental protection, enhancing safety and reliability, and adapting to customer needs and expectations.

For the safety risks that often occur at the entrance of the escalator handrail, we should maintain daily preparations and measures to avoid risks. The dangerous accidents that usually occur are mainly children who are not supervised by their guardians who occasionally play on the handrails and are picked up by the handrails, or fall events caused by people accidentally leaning on the handrails and being picked up by the handrails.



For the prevention of such accidents, there are mainly the following three suggestions:
(1) Add eye-catching warning signs and icons of emergency rescue operation methods;
(2) Continuously remind parents to take care of their children through voice broadcasts, etc., and children should be accompanied by adults when they take the escalator, and do not run, jump, squat, or jump;
(3) Reasonably set up relevant obstacles near the entrance of the handrail.

In addition, passengers should also pay attention to safety. Those who wear "clogs", push strollers, and carry heavy luggage, please choose to take the passenger elevator, and must not take the escalator for convenience.
In addition to the risk at the entrance of the handrail, escalators have other risks. For example, an escalator has multiple motion interfaces, and these interfaces are likely to cause harm to the human body if the escalator is inadvertent; when the escalator runs from the horizontal section to the inclined section, the front and rear steps will be staggered in height, which may easily cause standing instability. Moreover, once the passengers above the escalator fall, it is easy to cause the passengers below to fall; in addition, when riding the escalator, you should pay attention to the elevator handrail, but you should pay attention to the handrail groove of the escalator, which is easy to pinch your hands, especially at the turning of the handrail. The yellow "warning line" is actually a comb plate, stepping on it is easy to be "bitten"

Therefore, in daily travel, please always pay attention to your surrounding environment, observe possible risks and avoid them.
