[0002] Telephone poles are poles for laying electric wires. They appear in rural areas, fields, roads, and streets. They are one of the important infrastructures in early China. Various early telephone poles all started from wooden poles, even including high-voltage poles with not too high voltage levels. Later, due to the development of steel and reinforced concrete and technical requirements, these two materials replaced most wooden poles, and the applicable wood gradually became scarce, and there were basically no wooden poles in cities. However, because wooden poles are light in weight and easy to erect, and the load-bearing and tension of telephone lines are small, wooden poles can do the job. If the telephone lines are changed, it is also convenient to move the poles. Therefore, when laying telephone lines in some less developed areas, wooden poles are used as telephone poles.

[0003] When performing power maintenance, it is often necessary to climb on the poles to perform operations. When climbing the poles, it is necessary to use pedals to climb. However, due to the influence of temperature, when climbing, the anti-slip strips will be too hard in cold weather, which will affect the friction between the anti-slip strips and the poles, making it difficult for the anti-slip strips to better prevent slipping between the poles. In addition, wooden poles are generally used in open land. The surface of wooden poles is easy to adhere to mud and sand, which can easily cause the pedals to slip, affecting the climbing of the poles. Summary of the invention
