The escalator brush, professionally known as the apron anti-pinch device or escalator safety strip brush, is a dust removal and anti-pinch brush combination strip fixedly installed on the escalator handrail wall and the gap between the steps. 

The following is a detailed introduction to the escalator brush:

‌1. Main functions‌:

‌Anti-pinch function‌: There is a gap between the apron and the steps on both sides of the escalator, which is where skirts, shoes, shoelaces and other items are easily caught and brought into the equipment. The brush is mainly set to prevent these items from being caught in the gap, thereby avoiding safety accidents‌.

‌Warning function‌: The existence of the brush also serves as a warning, reminding passengers not to approach the dangerous areas on both sides of the escalator. When the passenger's foot touches the brush, it means that it has entered the "warning range" and should be moved to the middle of the elevator in time‌.

‌Dust removal function‌: The brush can also prevent dust and debris from entering the escalator, protecting the machine from running smoothly, which is equivalent to the "scavenger" of the escalator‌.

‌2. Types and manufacturing process**‌:

Escalator brushes are divided into single-row and double-row types. The manufacturing process of single-row brushes includes drilling holes on the rubber strip to plant hair, or using steel strips (aluminum alloy, iron sheet) to sandwich the brush strips. 

Double-row brushes are only sandwiched by steel strips (aluminum alloy, iron sheet)‌.

‌3. Specifications and materials‌:

The extension length of the brush is generally about 50mm-52mm, and the thickness of the brush strip is preferably 5mm×5mm, 6mm×6mm or 7mm×7mm.

The brush wire material is usually soft black nylon wire, which does not hurt clothes and has a certain elasticity, and can recover after being hit by passengers' shoes‌.

‌4. Precautions for use‌:

Passengers should avoid touching the brush when using the escalator to prevent safety accidents. In particular, do not use a brush to "brush shoes", because this will not only fail to achieve a cleaning effect, but may make the shoelaces and trouser legs dirty or even damaged, and increase the possibility of dangerous accidents.

In summary, the escalator brush is a small but important safety device. It not only prevents objects from being caught in the gaps of the escalator, but also serves as a warning and dust removal function. Passengers should use and care for these brushes correctly when using escalators.
