The folding ladder comprises a first ladder foot, a second ladder foot, a pedal and a lock catch structure, the upper ends of the first ladder foot and the second ladder foot are movably connected with each other, the lower ends of the first ladder foot and the second ladder foot are supported on the ground, the pedal is movably connected with the first ladder foot and the second ladder foot, and the lock catch structure is provided with a
handle plate, a lock hook, a connecting rod and an elastic piece; the
handle plate and the lock hook are movably connected with the pedal through the connecting rod, the connecting end of the lock hook is movably connected with the
handle plate and the pedal through the connecting rod, and the locking end of the lock hook is used for
hooking the reinforcing rod of the first ladder foot or the second ladder foot; the elastic piece is arranged on the connecting rod in a sleeving mode, elastically connected with the pedal and the lock hook and used for enabling the locking end of the lock hook to hook the reinforcing rod when the lifting handle plate overturns downwards and driving the locking end of the lock hook to be separated from the reinforcing rod through the limiting piece when the lifting handle plate overturns upwards. Therefore, the structure of the lock catch structure is simplified, the lock catch structure is easy to process and produce, convenient to replace and maintain in
actual use, higher in operation flexibility and humanized in design.
