The invention relates to a truss construction (2) for a passenger conveyor comprising at least one self-supporting element (4, 16). The self-supporting element, which is a roller molded element (4, 16), extends in a conveying direction of the passenger conveyor and is formed with at least one rail portion (6, 8) for guiding step chain rollers (7a) and/or step rollers (7b).

A component of an escalator, a moving walkway or an elevator includes a fastening device, which includes a spring element, a detent point for detenting the spring element and a support point for support of an attachment to be fastened. The spring element is pivotably arranged at the component, wherein in a stressed state the spring element is detented in the detent point and the attachment is pressed by the stressed spring element against the support point.

The present disclosure relates to a passenger transport system having a circulating transport belt and a drive for driving the belt. The drive has a motor, a connecting gear, and a drive shaft operatively connected to the motor via the connecting gear. The passenger transport system has a support structure in which the transport belt is movably guided and the drive shaft is rotatably mounted. The passenger transport system also has a support which is arranged on the support structure in the region of a first end in order to support the first end of the support structure on a building structure. The support projects from the support structure starting at an underside of the support structure and in orthogonal direction relative to the longitudinal extent of the support structure. The motor is fastened to the support outside of an internal space defined by the support structure.

An adjusting ring for a moving walkway or an escalator can include a hollow cylindrical annular body and at least one adjusting screw. An outside diameter of the annular body is greater than an inner outside ring diameter of an outer ring of a roller bearing arranged adjacently in the assembled state. Furthermore, the adjusting ring can include at least one annular groove arranged concentrically to the inside diameter in a lateral ring face of the annular body which is directed against the roller bearing in the assembled state.

A drive chain band for a chain drive device having chain links and pins is provided. The drive chain band may include one or more drive bands, and a plurality of connectors disposed on the one or more drive bands. Each connector may have a toothed profile configured to directly receive and engage the pins.
