Abstract
A pallet for a passenger conveyor includes an integrally formed thin walled support frame. The support frame walls all extend in the same principle direction to permit the support flame to be formed by an extrusion process. In a particular embodiment, the support frame includes thin walls extending in the width dimension. In another embodiment, the support frame includes multiple, integrally formed pieces having thin walls extending in the length dimension. The width of the support frame is dependent on the combined width of the multiple pieces.
