Hitachi, Ltd.andHitachi Building Systems Co., Ltd.has developed a new type of escalator that has a function that prevents one side from emptying. It was developed for the Hokko Technoport Line’s Yumeshima Station, which is scheduled to open in 2024 in conjunction with the 2025 Japan World Expo (Osaka/Kansai Expo).
The newly developed escalator is equipped with several new functions using LEDs. “Entrance LED guidance lighting” illuminates the standing position of the two rows of passengers on the steps near the entrance, and “Riser LED lighting” illuminates the steps that emphasize the difference in steps at the step where the stairs change. Equipped with three “skirt guard LED lights” that illuminate both sides according to the moving speed of the steps.
In addition, by combining the LED guidance indicator embedded in the cover plate, which has been provided as a paid option, and the signal indicating the boarding and alighting position, it is possible to guide the use of two rows and raise safety concerns, allowing the use of one side to be left open. It is said to be able to deter walking.
