[0026] The structure of the utility model is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments are descriptive rather than restrictive.

[0027] A convenient ladder device, see Figure 1-Figure 9 The invention point is: it includes a ladder body 1, a rotating shaft 5, an opening and closing handrail assembly 3, and an opening and closing handle assembly 4.

[0028] The ladder body mainly includes an inverted L-shaped ladder frame 1.1 and a pedal 1.3. The pedal is fixed in the ladder frame at a certain interval up and down. A vertical shaft sleeve 1.2 is provided in the middle of the end of the upper horizontal part of the ladder frame, and the rotating shaft is installed in the vertical shaft sleeve. The rotating shaft is connected to the shaft seat fixed under the chassis 6 of the harvester cab, so that the rotating shaft constitutes the rotation center of the ladder. Furthermore, handrails 2 are provided on both sides of the ladder frame. The two handrails are fixedly installed at the middle and upper positions of the left and right sides of the ladder frame by welding or the like. The setting of the handrails improves the safety of going up and down the ladder. The structural form of the pedal and the structural form of the handrails on both sides are not limited.

[0029] The opening and closing handrail assembly cooperates with the opening and closing handle assembly to realize the locking and unlocking control of the ladder body.

[0030] The opening and closing handrail device includes an angle bracket 3.3, a rod sleeve 3.2, a pull rod 3.4, and a lifting sleeve 3.1. The angle bracket is fixedly installed on one side of the upper horizontal part of the ladder frame by welding or bolt connection. A vertical installation cavity for inserting the rod sleeve is formed between the angle bracket and the corresponding side of the upper horizontal part of the ladder frame. The lower end of the rod sleeve is inserted into the vertical installation cavity and fixedly connected to the inner wall surface of the angle bracket by welding or other means. The upper end of the rod sleeve extends to the top of the ladder body. The pull rod is preferably an oblong annular pull rod with closed ends formed by bending steel wire. The pull rod is installed in the inner cavity of the rod sleeve in a clearance fit manner. The lower end of the pull rod extends from the lower end of the rod sleeve. A radial bolt 3.5 is installed in the inner ring of the upper end of the pull rod. The radial bolt passes through the oblong holes 3.2.1 set on both sides of the upper end of the rod sleeve and is fixedly connected to the lifting sleeve sleeved outside the rod sleeve. The lower part of the lifting sleeve is provided with bolt insertion holes for inserting radial bolts, and the upper part is provided with an annular handholding groove.

[0031] In the above structure, handle through holes 3.3.1 are provided on both sides of the angle bracket below the fixed rod sleeve, and the size of the handle through holes along the vertical direction needs to meet the vertical movement stroke requirement of the handle in the assembly of the opening and closing handle.

[0032] The opening and closing handle assembly includes a handle bar 4.1, a handle bar rotating shaft 4.3, a lock bar 4.6 and an elastic reset structure. The handle bar is composed of a power bar section 4.1.1, an intermediate bar section 4.1.2 and a resistance bar section 4.1.3, and is nearly Z-shaped as a whole. The power bar section is installed in the handle through holes on both sides of the angle frame and is installed with the lower ring end of the pull rod. The intermediate bar section is inserted into the through hole set on the corresponding side of the upper horizontal part of the ladder frame and then extends into the interior of the upper horizontal part of the ladder frame. The handle bar rotating shaft is vertically arranged on the intermediate bar section and is provided by welding or the like. Specifically, a connecting plate 4.2 can be welded on the intermediate bar section, and the handle bar rotating shaft is welded on the back of the connecting plate. The two ends of the handle bar rotating shaft are rotatably mounted on the shaft frame in the upper horizontal part of the ladder frame. The end of the resistance bar section is vertically fixedly connected to the lock bar, and the lock bar is installed on the inner side wall of the upper horizontal part of the ladder frame in a sliding manner, which can be achieved by setting a guide hole on the inner side wall. A through hole is provided at the top of the upper horizontal portion of the ladder frame for the upper end of the locking rod to extend out. A first locking hole and a second locking hole (not shown in the attached drawings) are provided on the harvester cab chassis. The first locking hole is used to lock the ladder by inserting and cooperating with the upper end of the locking rod when the ladder body is rotated to the side position of the cab (the position for the driver to get on or off the ladder). The second locking hole is used to lock the ladder by inserting and cooperating with the upper end of the locking rod when the ladder body is rotated to the front position of the cab chassis.

[0033] The elastic reset mechanism includes a tension spring 4.5 and a tension spring seat 4.4, wherein the tension spring seat is fixedly mounted on the top inner wall of the upper cross section of the ladder frame, the upper end of the tension spring is connected to the tension spring seat, and the lower end of the tension spring is connected to the resistance rod section, applying an upward pulling force to the rod section. The upper end of the locking rod is inserted into the lock hole through the elastic reset mechanism.

[0034] The working principle of this conveniently operated ladder device is:

[0035] When the driver needs to go up or down the ladder, the ladder is placed outside the cab. Under the action of the tension spring in the elastic reset mechanism, the upper end of the locking rod is inserted into the first locking hole to fix the ladder in the use position. When the driver is in the car and needs to retract the ladder, the hand-held lifting sleeve pulls the pull rod upward, and the lower end of the pull rod drives the power rod section to lift up. Based on the lever principle, the resistance rod section moves downward, driving the locking rod downward, so that the upper end of the locking rod retracts into the ladder frame and disengages from the first locking hole. At this time, the ladder body can be rotated around the rotating shaft to rotate the ladder body to the front position. After rotating into place, release the lifting sleeve, and under the action of the elastic reset mechanism, the other end of the handle rod is driven upward, thereby driving the locking rod upward, so that the upper end of the locking rod is inserted into the second locking hole, and the ladder is fixed in the retracted position. The operation process of adjusting from the retracted position to the use position refers to the above-mentioned process of adjusting from the use position to the retracted position, which will not be repeated here.

[0036] Although the embodiments and drawings of the present invention are disclosed for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various substitutions, changes and modifications are possible without departing from the spirit of the present invention and the appended claims. Therefore, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the contents disclosed in the embodiments and drawings.
