The invention relates to a step (4) of an escalator or a plate (14) of a moving walkway. This comprises a tread element (40) and a support body (30) with a base (31), wherein the tread element (40) comprises at least two sub-elements (41, 42, 43) and each sub-element (41, 42, 43) is bounded in the areal extent thereof by two parallel end sides (45, 46) extending in the intended direction (X) of movement of the step (4, 304) or plate (14, 114) and two edge sides (47, 48, 147, 148) arranged orthogonally to the end sides (45, 46). The at least two sub-elements (41, 42, 43) are arranged in a predetermined sequence on the base (31) of the support body (30). Sub-elements (41, 42, 43) arranged adjacent to one another respectively bear against one another by one of the end sides (45, 46) thereof, wherein a sub-element (41, 42) previously arranged on the base (31) is secured to the support body (30) by the respective sub-element (42, 43) subsequently arranged on the base (31).

A step of an escalator or a pallet of a moving walk has a supporting body with a base and at least one tread-element with a tread-surface wherein, on an underside that faces away from the tread-surface, the at-least one tread-element has at least one fastening protrusion. In the assembled state, the at-least one fastening protrusion protrudes through an opening in the base. Arranged on the side of the base that faces away from the tread-element, at least partly between the base and the fastening protrusion, is at least one fixing element. The fixing element fixes the tread-element against the base in a pretensioned manner.

A step of a passenger conveyor and a passenger conveyor. The step is provided with a step anti-jump member which includes: a first portion connected to a frame of the step, and a second portion connected to the first portion and extending towards a step guide rail, after a plurality of steps are connected by a step chain and assembled in place on the step guide rail, preset gaps are maintained between the second portion and the step guide rail, and when an upward jump displacement of the step exceeds a preset value during a travelling of the step along the step guide rail, the second portion comes into contact with the step guide rail to limit the step from continuing to jump upward.
