Abstract
The invention relates to a transparent balustrade () of an escalator () or of a moving walk, comprising a balustrade skirt (), at least one glass panel (), and a handrail guide () with a handrail (). The at-least one glass panel () has an upper edge () and a lower end () and, at its lower end (), is gripped in a mounting () in the balustrade skirt () in locationally fixed manner. The transparent balustrade () contains at least one support (), which is tightly joined to the balustrade skirt (). The glass panel () is deformable perpendicular to its planar extent and therefore in lateral direction. Through its elastic deformability, to absorb lateral forces (F) the glass panel () displays lateral displaceability within a permissible deformation play (s), lateral displaceability within the permissible deformation play (s) being limited by the support ().
