rick1 stranger Joined: Jan 2014 Posts: 8 Upstate New York	Looking for a little help on escalators. I recently had an architect as me what is a "Cord Angle" of an escalator. I have never heard of this term. Can some shine a light on this term? Also wanted to know is a idler sprocket applies tension to a handrail or a handrail drive chain? Thanks
