Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0576353A1] The variable-speed conveyor element (transportation device) applied to a handrail, consists of separate handgrips connected together by elements of variable length themselves acting as elements of the handrail, each of these elements consisting of a continuous flexible link such as a belt or cable, to which link are fixed contiguous blocks which prevent or limit the flexing of the element in one sense, the blocks being equipped with bosses and recesses which allow them to nest in one another in order to transmit loads. <IMAGE>
