US Classification:

Abstract:

The invention generally relates to people movers fabricated from at least two frame assemblies pivotably connected, for example, in a v formation, wherein the forward end of each frame assembly is pivotably connected such that the rearward end of each frame assembly can be at a variable offset distance so the overall width of the people mover can be adjusted from a maximum (widest) overall width to a minimum (substantially narrow) overall width. Further, the frame assemblies can include forward wheel(s) and/or rearward wheel(s) that can roll in any direction and/or in a regulated range of directions such that when the people mover is at its maximum (widest) width the rearward wheels can only roll in a forward and/or inwardly direction and when the people mover is at its minimum (substantially narrow) width the rearward wheels can only roll in a substantially forward and/or substantially outwardly direction.
