2. Description of the Related Art Generally, passenger conveyors such as escalators are normally operated continuously during the business hours of railways and buildings, but the presence or absence of passengers is detected in order to reduce the amount of power consumed for operation. Meanwhile, a so-called automatic driving method, which automatically controls driving or stopping, is beginning to spread. As an example of this automatic operation system, there is a configuration disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 62-197682.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the above-mentioned prior art, in a passenger conveyor adopting an automatic driving system, a passenger passage detecting device which is an operation command source thereof is built in a balustrade portion of an entrance / exit, and this detecting device and a comb ( The dimension (S) up to the tip of the comb at the boundary between the entrance and exit and the step is taken as the value obtained by multiplying the time (t) required to start the step by the walking speed (v) of the passenger, and further, this value (Α) is added and the following formula is made: S = v · t + α Substituting a proper numerical value into this, S ≈ 1.6 m,
It is intended to improve the aesthetics by eliminating the protective fence for passenger guidance that was required in the past.

However, the above idea means that the balustrade is extended to the anti-step side by an amount equivalent to the distance between the detector and the comb (≈1.6 m), and the extension of the balustrade increases the construction space and the balustrade. However, there is a problem that the strength is lowered and the manufacturing cost is increased. Further, in this conventional technique, a conversation between passengers in front of the step, which is often seen in daily life (if the passenger is not standing on the step side of the passenger passage detection device and not stepping on the step, the passenger stops before reaching the exit. In addition, there is a need to reduce the amount of time taken by the conventional method of automatically stopping with a margin of 20 to 30 seconds with respect to the scheduled time for the last passenger to reach the exit. There was no power-oriented idea.

The former, which stops the operation after the lapse of a predetermined time, assumes the case where the passenger stops between the first and second detection devices at the scheduled time when the passenger reaches the exit, and further has the margin of 20 to 30 seconds. The predetermined time was set. For this reason, the passengers who do not stop and get on and off at the scheduled time will be wasted for 20 to 30 seconds, and the power saving effect will be impaired. Also, the second
The latter, which detects the passenger getting off with the detection device of No. 1 and stops the operation, does not have a passenger if the passenger detected by the first detection device makes a U-turn immediately before getting on the step Nevertheless, unless the passenger is detected by the second detection device, the vehicle continues to operate, which is also against the power saving operation. An object of the present invention is to provide a passenger conveyor with a high power saving effect.

After the passenger conveyer 3 is activated, when a passenger crosses the second passenger passage detecting device 9, the detection switch 30 is turned on to operate the relay 201 and also to turn on the contact 201a to hold itself. By the operation of the relay 201, the contact 201a of the timer 200T is turned on. This timer 200T adds a little extra time to the boarding time (the time T required to move the distance l 3 shown in FIG. 1) to the step 4 until the passenger gets in from the entrance / exit 1 and gets off at the entrance / exit 2. It is to set the time. This timer 200T
Operation causes the contact 200Ta to be turned on and the driving auxiliary relay 12 to be turned on. However, the driving auxiliary relay 12 is already turned on by the tie 100T, and the driving relay 50 is turned on.
Is being operated to operate the passenger conveyor 3, so the operation is continued. After that, when the time set by the timer 100T elapses, the normally closed contact 100Tb opens to turn off the relay 101, and the relay 101 and the timer 100T.
T returns to the initial state and enters the standby state. At the same time, even if the contact 100Ta is turned off due to the elapse of the set time of the timer 100T, the operation of the timer 200T continues, so that the passenger conveyor 3 continues to operate.
