[0002] When constructing a trestle in the coastal waters, pile legs are used to raise the trestle platform above the water surface. At this time, the pile legs of the trestle need to be vertical or diagonally supported with the trestle platform. The pile legs are slender column structures, which means that during transportation, the pile legs need to be folded to be placed parallel to the trestle platform. Therefore, the previous integral elevated trestle pile leg solutions cannot meet the requirements. Most of the existing pile legs and platforms are directly fixed vertically, which cannot realize the rotation and folding of the pile legs, and cannot set diagonal piles at any angle.

[0006] The locking mechanism comprises: a locking tooth block, a fixed slide plate, a guide mechanism and a driving mechanism, wherein the fixed slide plate is connected to a side of the guide mechanism away from the pile fixing frame;

[0007] The pile fixing frame rotates around the center of the rotating gear ring, and the platform is in rotational contact with one end of the central shaft. The central shaft is arranged at the center of the rotating gear ring, and the other end of the central shaft is fixed to the pile fixing frame. The locking tooth block reciprocates along the guide mechanism toward the inner side of the rotating gear ring under the cooperation of the driving mechanism and the fixed slide plate, driving the locking tooth block to engage or disengage with the rotating gear ring, so as to lock and unlock the rotating gear ring and control the rotation angle position of the pile fixing frame relative to the platform.

[0008] Furthermore, the locking tooth block is designed in a convex shape, and the large-size side of the locking tooth block is close to the rotating gear ring. The guide mechanism includes: a positioning plate, the positioning plate is connected to the pile fixing frame, and the positioning plates are symmetrically arranged along both sides of the locking tooth block. The guide mechanism is designed in a convex shape with openings at both ends.

[0009] Furthermore, the locking tooth block includes: a support body, a locking tooth and a tail handle; the support body and the tail handle are integrally connected, the front end of the support body is connected to the locking tooth adapted to the rotating gear ring, and the locking tooth block is used to connect with the driving mechanism through the slide groove, and under the action of the driving mechanism, the locking tooth block is driven to move toward the rotating gear ring side.

[0012] The locking tooth block is provided with: a second locking groove and a second pushing shaft groove, the second pushing shaft groove is arranged at the center of the locking tooth block, the second locking groove is symmetrically arranged at both ends of the second pushing shaft groove, and the second locking groove is designed to be perpendicular to the second pushing shaft groove, the locking shaft is arranged in the second locking groove, and the pushing shaft is arranged in the second pushing shaft groove.

In the locked state, the pile frame is relatively fixed to the platform to ensure that the position of the pile legs is fixed. In the unlocked state, the pile frame can rotate relative to the platform to switch the pile legs between the folded state and the elevated state.

[0019] When locking is required, under the drive of the synchronously working driving cylinder, the locking shaft of the driving connecting rod of the driving mechanism moves along the longitudinal groove of the first locking slide groove, pushing the locking tooth block to engage with the rotating gear ring.
