Single inclined moving walkways are sloped conveyors designed to transport people between different elevations. Common in places like shopping malls or airports, they provide a smooth transition between floors without the need for stairs or escalators. This design is particularly beneficial for those with mobility challenges or heavy luggage. By offering an effortless incline, these walkways enhance accessibility and convenience, aiding movement between varying levels of a structure.
Single Inclined Moving Walkways have overall widths between 4’4”-7’ (1.32-2.13 m) and handrail heights of 3’-3’3” (91-99 cm). Inclined pit depths are commonly 4’ (122 cm) with pit lengths of 20’ (6.1 m). Inclined moving walkways have angles of 1-6, 10, and 12 degrees with a maximum rise of 20’ (6.1 m). The overall lengths of moving walkways vary with typical runs between 328’-656’ (100-200 m).
When choosing the clear width for a moving walkway, five standard design widths for use are 32”, 40”, 48”, 56”, 64” (81, 102, 122, 142, 163 cm). 32” (82 cm) wide designs offers more flexibility for single users and allow enough space for a second person to pass by. 40” (102 cm) widths provide space for two people and also are wide enough for two lanes of traffic. Larger sizes between 48”-64” (122-163 cm) are sizes for larger parties and people with large luggage.
