We use it all the time but most people have never actually seen the inner workings of an escalator!

Here is some of the gear that I use for animation:
Graphics Card: GTX 1080ti amzn.to/2t70HN0
CPU: i7-8700k amzn.to/2WEk9OE
Motherboard: Asus Prim Z370-A amzn.to/2t4EVth
Microphone: Samson Go Mic amzn.to/2GaSpvV
Mouse: Logitech G600 amzn.to/2UKhf9P
📼Video Summary:
I've animated the inside to give you a detailed look at the steps, step chain, gears, handrail, and the motor. My favorite part is how the steps always stay level when they're on top. In this video we also take a look at how escalators layouts such as side by side or the criss-cross configuration. And yes...they really do have spiral escalators! Maybe I'll cover that in a future video.

Jared, thanks! Great job! Would you please also consider modeling hi speed travelator. It's a moving walkway in which each segment has two parts that can expand. It slows down gradually at the beginning and at the end so people can get on and off, but the speed at the middle is always fast!

@starbase218 Жыл бұрын

Actually most escalators (that I used anyway) will have the handrail moving a bit faster than the steps. I looked it up and one reason I found has to do with wear, over time reducing the handrail speed. So this way, they get a better service life out of it. Another reason I found is safety. It would actually go faster on escalators going up, and slower on ones going down (which I think is also what I’ve seen). If someone who counts on the handrail for balance falls, they’d fall on the escalator upwards. I think my father (who was a maintenance technician in a large department store) actually mentioned the safety reason to me.

I'm not sure about escalators in US, but here in Europe, the handrail moves slightly faster than the stairs. This is intentional, because it keeps you aware of your surroundings and thus keeps you awake. If you fell asleep on the escalators, you might end up in hospital after a rather curious accident.

4:20 is actually not true. The handrail and steps dont move at the same speed. The handrails move a tiny bit faster to make sure that the person standing on the steps is always pulled forward and not backwards when a lot of people are holding on to the railing! To prevent you from falling backwards

@Leffker 4 жыл бұрын

@@falcy2889 Why would it be dumb? You save a whole escalator by making it move in both directions and it turns off, when it is not in use, so it saves a lot of energy during less busier times. It is not used in highly frequented areas, but only where it makes sence.

@falcy2889 4 жыл бұрын

Leffker you know if there are so little people there that the escalator can be turned off and changed direction then it’s unnecessary. Regular stairs would be much more efficient Escalators are used for moving large amount of people in one direction and ensure faster transportation.
