[0027] Hereinafter, the present application will be further described in conjunction with specific embodiments, and it should be noted that the following described embodiments or technical features can be combined in any manner to form new embodiments without conflict.
[0028] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that for orientation words, such as the terms “center”, “transverse”, “longitudinal”, “length”, “width”, “thickness”, “up”, “down”, “front”, “back”, “left”, “right”, “vertical”, “horizontal”, “top”, “bottom”, “inner”, “outer”, “clockwise”, “counterclockwise”, etc. The orientation and positional relationship shown in the drawing is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawing, and is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and cannot be understood as limiting the specific protection scope of the present application.
[0029] It should be noted that the terms “first”, “second” and the like in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily have to describe a specific order or sequence.
[0030] One preferred embodiment of the present application is as follows:Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a biomimetic hook-type tower climbing fall arrestor includes a handcuff body 1 and a wearing component 2. The wearing component 2 can be installed on the handcuff body 1, allowing the handcuff body 1 to be worn on the climber's hand during use. Furthermore, while climbing the tower, the climber can grip the tower foot spikes 400 with their palm 310 and hook the foot spikes 400 with the handcuff body 1. Through the connection between the handcuff body 1 and the foot spikes 400, an effective protective connection can be established between the climber and the tower. In the event of dangerous situations such as fainting, exhaustion, or misoperation, the handcuff body 1 can firmly connect the climber to the tower, preventing falls.
[0031] Understandably, the handcuff body 1 is biomimetic in design, thus, after the climber puts on the handcuff body 1, it adds a mechanical, biomimetic sixth finger to the biological foundation of the five human fingers. During climbing, this biomimetic mechanical sixth finger can lock onto the foot spikes 400, establishing an effective protective connection between the climber and the tower structure. During normal climbing, the biomimetic mechanical sixth finger is synchronized with the climbing movements and does not interfere with traditional climbing operations. The biomimetic mechanical sixth finger is small, lightweight, and simple in structure; it can be worn on the hand like a glove. Wearing the biomimetic mechanical sixth finger does not hinder normal work movements; when reaching the work position or a work area without foot spikes 400, it can be removed and placed in a bag or pocket.
[0032] In this embodiment, the handcuff body 1 can be worn at various specific positions on the climber's hand. As described above, the handcuff body 1 can function as a bionic sixth finger, and therefore, the handcuff body 1 can be worn in two main ways. The first way: [Example of the first method is missing here, likely a typo]. Figure 3 As shown, the handcuff body 1 can be worn on the little finger side of the climber's palm 310; the second type: as... Figure 4 As shown, the handcuff body 1 can be worn on the thumb side of the climber's palm 310.
[0033] Understandably, by wearing the handcuff body 1 on the side of the climber's palm 310, the handcuff body 1 can prevent the climber from interfering with the palm 310's grip on the foot spikes 400 during climbing operations, thereby improving the climber's climbing safety.
[0034] In this embodiment, there are several ways to wear the wearable component 2 on the climber's hand, including but not limited to the following three.
[0035] Wearing mode one: wearing component 2 is worn on the palm 310 of the climber. At this time, the number of wearing component 2 can be one or more; but in order to wear conveniently, one wearing component 2 is generally used for wearing, only the width and thickness dimensions of the wearing component 2 need to meet the wearing strength.
[0036] Wearing mode two: wearing component 2 is worn on the wrist 320 of the climber. At this time, the number of wearing component 2 can be one or more; but in order to wear conveniently, one wearing component 2 is generally used for wearing, only the width and thickness dimensions of the wearing component 2 need to meet the wearing strength.
[0037] Wearing mode three: as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , wearing component 2 is respectively worn on the palm 310 and the wrist 320 of the climber. At this time, the number of wearing component 2 is at least two, and can be more than two; but in order to wear conveniently, two wearing components 2 are generally used for wearing, that is, the palm 310 is worn through one wearing component 2, and the wrist 320 is worn through one wearing component 2, only the width and thickness dimensions of the wearing component 2 need to meet the wearing strength.
[0038] It can be understood that for the above wearing mode one, it is convenient to wear when used, and it is also convenient to control the hand buckle body 1; but when the climber has a dangerous condition such as syncope, collapse and misoperation, it is easy to be loose with the palm 310 of the climber. For the above wearing mode two, the wearing shape is general when used, and the controllability of the hand buckle body 1 after wearing is poor; but when the climber has a dangerous condition such as syncope, collapse and misoperation, since the circumference of the palm 310 is greater than the circumference of the wrist 320, the wearing component 2 is not easy to be loose with the hand of the climber, thereby the safety of use can be ensured. Therefore, in combination with the above wearing mode one and wearing mode two, the above wearing mode three is preferably used in the embodiment.
[0039] One embodiment of the present application is shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figures 5 to 7 , the upper part of the hand buckle body 1 is provided with a downward opening hook 100; the hook opening width of the hook 100 is slightly greater than the diameter of the spike 400, and the hook opening is wide; so that when the climber climbs the tower, the hand buckle body 1 can be clamped into the spike 400 through the hook opening of the hook 100 to be hooked.
[0040] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the hand buckle body 1 is provided with a plurality of wearing components 2, and the wearing components 2 are respectively arranged on the palm 310 and the wrist 320 of the climber.As shown, the hand buckle body 1 is provided with a spring stop needle 13 on one side of the hook 100, which can elastically shield the opening of the hook 100. When the climbing personnel climbs the tower, the cleat 400 can pass through the spring stop needle 13 to deform the spring stop needle 13 to open the opening of the hook, so that the cleat 400 can enter the hook 100; after the cleat 400 enters the hook 100, the spring stop needle 13 can be elastically reset to shield the opening of the hook 100 again, thereby limiting the cleat 400 from disengaging from the hook 100 to avoid the cleat 400 from easily disengaging from the hand buckle body 1.
[0041] It can be understood that after the hand buckle body 1 is clamped into the cleat 400 through the hook 100, the opening direction of the hook 100 can change with the hand movement of the climbing personnel. Thus, the climbing personnel may be panicked due to accidents, causing the opening direction of the hook 100 to be horizontal or upward, at which time the unshielded hook 100 is easy to disengage from the cleat 400, causing the connection between the climbing personnel and the power transmission tower to be disconnected, thereby possibly causing the climbing personnel to fall. Therefore, by providing the spring stop needle 13, the disengagement of the hook 100 from the cleat 400 due to accidents can be effectively avoided or reduced; at the same time, the spring stop needle 13 can be elastically deformed, thereby basically not interfering with the climbing process of the climbing personnel.
[0042] Specifically, the specific structure of the spring stop needle 13 has many kinds, among which a common one is as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the spring stop needle 13 is in a semicircular arc shape and can shield the opening of a plate of the hook 100. Thus, when the hook 100 is clamped into and disengaged from the cleat 400, the deformation of the spring stop needle 13 can be easily achieved through the extrusion of the arc-shaped outer wall of the cleat 400 and the arc-shaped spring stop needle 13.
[0043] As shown in Figure 2 and Figures 5 to 7 , the spring stop needle 13 is made of steel wire, and the two ends of the spring stop needle 13 are in a spiral shape; the spring stop needle 13 is fixed and installed on the hand buckle body 1 through fasteners 500 passing through the two spiral ends. The specific structure of the fastener 500 is a known technology to those skilled in the art, and a common fastener 500 can be a screw, etc.; the screw passes through the two spiral ends of the spring stop needle 13 and is threadedly connected with the hand buckle body 1.
[0044] It should also be known that the limiting force of the spring stop needle 13 on the cleat 400 can be set by the diameter of the steel wire. That is, the thicker the diameter of the steel wire, the greater the limiting force, and vice versa.
[0045] One embodiment of the present application is as shown inFigures 5 to 7 As shown in the figure, the hand buckle body 1 comprises a palm hook 11 and a wrist plate 12; the palm hook 11 is hinged with the wrist plate 12. The hook 100 and the spring needle stopper 13 are both arranged on the palm hook 11; the palm hook 11 can be worn on the palm 310 of the climber through the wearing component 2, and the wrist plate 12 can be worn on the wrist 320 of the climber through the wearing component 2, so that the palm hook 11 and the wrist plate 12 can rotate with the movement of the joints of the hands of the climber, thereby reducing or avoiding the restriction of the hand buckle body 1 on the hands of the climber during the gripping and releasing of the foot nail 400, so that the use of the hand buckle body 1 is more flexible.
[0046] It should be known that when the hand buckle body 1 is worn, the wearing component 2 is closely worn with the palm 310 of the climber. During the tower climbing, the gripping and releasing of the foot nail 400 need to be realized through the bending and stretching of the palm 310; if the hand buckle body 1 is a fixed integral structure, the wearing component 2 worn on the palm 310 will interfere with the movement of the palm 310 of the climber; so that the palm 310 is difficult to grip the foot nail 400, thereby affecting the safety of tower climbing. Therefore, by hingedly arranging the palm hook 11 and the wrist plate 12 of the hand buckle body 1, when the palm 310 performs the gripping and stretching action, the synchronous movement with the palm 310 can be realized through the rotation of the palm hook 11 around the wrist plate 12, so as to improve the flexibility of the hand buckle body 1, and also effectively improve the safety of the climber during tower climbing.
[0047] Specifically, as shown in the figure, Figures 5 to 7 The palm hook 11 is a sheet structure made of high-strength material, and the hook 100 is arranged on the upper part of the palm hook 11, so that the hook mouth of the hook 100 protrudes from one side of the palm hook 11. The wrist plate 12 is a plate structure made of high-strength material, and a ball hinge 600 is threadedly connected to the upper part of the wrist plate 12; the palm hook 11 is rotationally connected with the ball hinge 600 through the lower part, and the palm hook 11 and the wrist plate 12 are hingedly connected through the ball hinge 600; that is, the ball hinge 600 is equivalent to the joint of the bionic sixth finger. When designing the strength of the ball hinge 600, it needs to meet the requirement that in the case of falling accident, the ball hinge 600 can transmit the weight of the human body to the power transmission tower through the wrist plate 12.
[0048] In this embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figures 5 to 7 The palm hook 11 and the wrist plate 12 are both provided with a perforation 110; the wearing component 2 comprises an elastic band 21 and a buckle 22 for connecting the two ends of the elastic band 21. The elastic band 21 can be installed on the palm hook 11 and the wrist plate 12 by passing through the perforation 110. When the hand buckle body 1 is worn, the elastic band 21 can be sleeved on the palm 310 or the wrist 320 of the climber; the buckle 22 can adjust the tension of the elastic band 21.
[0049] It can be understood that the number of the through holes 110 provided on the palm hook 11 and the wrist plate 12 can be one or multiple; in order to ensure the stability of wearing, as shown in Figures 5 to 7 , preferably, two through holes 110 are provided on the palm hook 11 and the wrist plate 12. Thus, when installing the wearing component 2, taking the palm hook 11 or the wrist plate 12 as an example, the first end of the elastic band 21 can be inserted into one of the through holes 110, and then the first end of the elastic band 21 is pulled out of the other through hole 110, and finally the first end of the elastic band 21 is connected with the second end through the buckle 22.
[0050] It can also be understood that the elastic band 21 has a certain tension, so that the elastic band 21 can be easily separated from the palm 310 and the wrist 320 when overloaded. Of course, the force of the elastic band 21 when tensioned can ensure that the palm hook 11 overcomes the resistance of the spring stop pin 13 to buckle into the foot nail 400.
[0051] In the embodiment, as shown in Figures 5 to 7 , the lower end of the wrist plate 12 is provided with a bolt hole 120 for tying a safety rope; through the connection of the safety rope, the safety of the tower climbing personnel can be further improved.
[0052] It should be known that the safety rope is a high-strength soft rope, one end of which is tied in the bolt hole 120 of the wrist plate 12, and the other end is tied with a safety ring buckle connected with a safety belt. The length of the safety rope is determined according to the arm operation during climbing, and the strength meets the anti-falling requirements. The safety rope can be provided with a blocking ring at the elbow joint of the climber to prevent the swing from hindering the tower climbing work.
[0053] In order to facilitate understanding, the specific use process of the bionic lock hook type tower climbing anti-falling hand buckle of the present application will be described below.
[0054] (1) Before the tower climbing personnel performs the tower climbing work, the hand buckle body 1 can be installed on the left hand and the right hand through the elastic band 21 in the manner shown in Figure 3 or Figure 4 , and the tension of the elastic band 21 is adjusted through the buckle 22 to ensure that the hand buckle body 1 is closely and comfortably installed on the side of the palm 310.
[0055] (2) When climbing the tower normally, the palm 310 must be higher than the cleat 400 first, then the palm hook 11 is hooked on the cleat 400 through the hook 100, finally the arm is pulled back to overcome the resistance of the spring stop needle 13, so that the cleat 400 is buckled into the hook 100, and the palm can also hold the cleat 400 at this time, completing the buckling process of the bionic lock hook type tower climbing anti-falling hand buckle. When we want to climb, the anti-loose fingers stretch the palm 310, the arm is stretched forward to overcome the resistance of the spring stop needle 13, and the palm hook 11 is out of the cleat 400.
[0056] (3) When the climber faints, collapses and misoperates, etc. Accidents occur, through the buckling of the hook 100 and the cleat 400, and the wearing connection of the elastic band 21 and the wrist 320, it can be ensured that the climber will not easily fall due to the loosening of the hands and the transmission tower. Even if the palm hook 11 and the cleat 400 are loosened, the safety rope connected to the wrist plate 12 can still pull the climber to avoid falling. That is, the palm hook 11, the ball hinge 600, the wrist plate 12 and the safety rope form a complete backup protection system, which is closely connected with the safety belt and the tower material, forming a complete double-hand anti-falling protection chain.
[0057] The above describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present application. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present application is not limited to the above examples, and the above examples and descriptions in the specification are only the principles of the present application. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, various changes and improvements can be made to the present application, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the claimed present application. The scope of protection claimed by the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
