Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power construction technology, and in particular relates to a pole climbing fall protection device and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Pole work is a high-risk and high-danger operation commonly involved in many industries such as power and communications. There are two main safety risks involved: one is the risk of accidental falls by personnel, and the other is the risk that the safety tools and electrical components on the pole may fall and injure people below due to the numerous and complex electrical components on the pole. There have been many accidents involving casualties due to the risks described above.

[0003] Existing fall protection devices typically consist of inflatable cushions mounted on utility poles. These cushion the fall and reduce injury to workers who accidentally fall, but they cannot catch workers. Furthermore, they cannot prevent workers' safety equipment or electrical devices from falling, still posing a risk of injuring people below the pole. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the defects or deficiencies in the existing technology, the present invention provides a pole climbing anti-fall protection device and its usage method, which can catch workers who accidentally fall, and can also block the safety tools and electrical devices of workers that fall, so as to prevent people below the pole from being injured.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] In a first aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide a pole climbing fall protection device, including an inner air column and an outer air column. A thick-walled air chamber is provided between the bottom of the inner air column and the bottom of the outer air column. The thick-walled air chamber has a fan-shaped structure and multiple fixing buckles are provided at both ends. Multiple connecting inflation columns are connected between the upper part of the inner air column and the upper part of the outer air column.

[0007] Furthermore, the cross-section of the inner air column is annular, with an opening on one side. Multiple fixing buckles are provided at both ends of the opening of the inner air column, and the multiple fixing buckles are arranged side by side along the height direction of the inner air column.

[0008] Furthermore, the two sides of the thick-walled air chamber are connected to the inner air column and the outer air column, respectively. Multiple ventilation holes are provided between the thick-walled air chamber and the inner and outer air columns, and the thick-walled air chamber, the inner air column and the outer air column are interconnected.

[0009] Furthermore, the thick-walled air chamber is divided into four chambers in the middle, and a tight tension air column is set between two adjacent chambers. The two ends of the tight tension air column are connected to the inner air column and the outer air column, respectively.

[0010] Furthermore, the height of the outer air column is less than the height of the inner air column.

[0011] Furthermore, an opening is provided on one side of the outer air column, and multiple fixing buckles are arranged side by side at both ends of the opening.

[0012] Furthermore, the length of the connecting air column is less than the width of the thick-walled air chamber.

[0013] Furthermore, an inflation hole is provided at the bottom of the inner air column, and the inflation hole is connected to an air pump located under the rod through an inflation pipe.

[0014] Furthermore, a manual check valve is provided at the end of the inflation tube, and a check valve cover is provided on the manual check valve, and a waterproof sealing port is provided on the check valve cover.

[0015] Secondly, embodiments of the present invention provide a method for using a pole climbing fall protection device, comprising the following steps:

[0016] First, use the opening on the inner air column to wrap the inner air column around the pole, ensuring that the side with the connecting air column faces upward. Connect the fixing buckles at both ends of the inner air column opening. The pole climber uses a hoisting rope to hoist the protective device to a suitable position, so that the protective device is directly below the construction position. The pole climber connects and fastens the remaining buckles. The supervisor below the pole uses an air pump to inflate the protective device from the inflation valve. After inflation, the friction between the inner air column and the pole is used to fix the protective device to the pole.

[0017] During inflation, the opening of the hemispherical structure formed by the thick-walled air chamber, which is connected by the inflation column, always faces upward, thus protecting the workers located above the protective device and preventing their safety tools and electrical components from falling down the pole and injuring them.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0019] 1. This invention sets up an inner air column and an outer air column, and sets up a thick-walled air chamber between the bottom of the inner air column and the outer air column, and sets up a connecting air column between the upper part of the inner air column and the outer air column, so as to catch workers who accidentally fall, and to block the safety tools and electrical devices of the workers who fall, so as to prevent people below the pole from being injured.

[0020] 2. This invention connects the internal air column through an inflation tube, and the inflation and deflation process is handled by the supervisor at the bottom of the pole, which greatly improves the safety of production. The protective device can be fixed at different positions on the pole by utilizing the friction between the inner air column and the pole after inflation. The overall tension of the air column and air chamber after inflation can withstand a large free fall force. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] A typical embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a pole climbing fall protection device includes an inner air column 1 and an outer air column 2, with a thick-walled air chamber 3 provided between the bottom of the inner air column 1 and the bottom of the outer air column 2.

[0028] The inner air column 1 has an annular cross-section with an opening on one side. Multiple fixing buckles 4 are provided at both ends of the opening of the inner air column. The multiple fixing buckles 4 are arranged side by side along the height direction of the inner air column 1. The fixing buckles 4 adopt double-headed magnetic plugs or double-headed backpack buckles. The two ends of the opening of the inner air column 1 can be connected through the fixing buckles 4, thereby forming an annular shape for the inner air column 1. The inner air column 1 is fitted onto the outside of the utility pole through the opening, and the fixing buckles 4 on both sides of the opening are connected to fix the inner air column 1 to the utility pole.

[0029] The thick-walled air chamber 3 is made of double-layer PVC Oxford cloth. The thick-walled air chamber 3 has a fan-shaped structure. The two sides of the thick-walled air chamber 3 are connected to the inner air column 1 and the outer air column 2 respectively. Multiple ventilation holes are provided between the thick-walled air chamber 3 and the inner air column 1 and the outer air column 2, so that the thick-walled air chamber 3, the inner air column 1 and the outer air column 2 are connected.

[0030] The thick-walled air chamber 3 is divided into four chambers in the middle. A tight tension air column 5 is set between two adjacent chambers. The two ends of the tight tension air column 5 are connected to the inner air column 1 and the outer air column 2, respectively. By setting the tight tension air column 5 between the chambers, the overall strength of the thick-walled air chamber 3 can be enhanced.

[0031] Multiple fixing buckles 4 are provided at both ends of the thick-walled air chamber 3. By engaging the fixing buckles 4 at both ends of the thick-walled air chamber 3, the thick-walled air chamber 3 can be surrounded by the inner air column 1 to form a hemispherical structure.

[0032] The height of the outer air column 2 is less than the height of the inner air column 1. The outer air column 2 is set close to the outer edge of the thick-walled air chamber 3, thus forming a ring structure. The outer air column 2 has an opening on one side. Multiple fixing buckles 4 are arranged side by side at both ends of the opening of the outer air column. The two ends of the opening of the outer air column 2 can be connected by the interlocking of the fixing buckles 4, thus forming a ring structure.

[0033] Multiple connecting air columns 6 are provided on the upper part of the inner air column 1. One end of the multiple connecting air columns 6 is connected to the inner air column 1, and the other end is connected to the outer air column 2. The length of the connecting air columns 6 is less than the width of the thick-walled air chamber 3, so that the opening direction of the hemispherical structure formed by the thick-walled air chamber 3 always faces upward, which can effectively catch workers who accidentally fall, and can prevent workers' safety tools and electrical devices from falling down the pole and injuring people.

[0034] An inflation hole is provided at the bottom of the inner air column 1. The inflation hole is connected to the inflation pump located under the rod through the inflation pipe 7. A manual check valve is provided at the end of the inflation pipe 7. The manual check valve is provided with a check valve cover and a waterproof sealing port. By providing a manual check valve, the gas in the protection device is guaranteed not to leak.

[0035] Personnel at the base of the pole use an air pump to quickly inflate it. The friction between the inner air column 1 and the pole after inflation allows it to adapt to different positions of the pole. Furthermore, the overall tension of the inflated air column and the thick-walled air chamber 3 can withstand a large free fall force.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] This embodiment discloses a method for using a pole climbing fall protection device, which utilizes the pole climbing fall protection device as described in Embodiment 1, and includes the following steps:

[0038] When using, such as Figure 3As shown, firstly, use the opening on the inner air column to wrap the inner air column around the pole, ensuring that the side with the connecting air column faces upward. Connect the fixing buckles at both ends of the opening of the inner air column. The pole climber uses a hoisting rope to lower the protective device to a suitable position, so that the protective device is directly below the construction position. The pole climber connects and fastens the remaining buckles. The supervisor below the pole uses an air pump to inflate the protective device from the inflation valve. After inflation, the protective device is fixed to the pole by the friction between the inner air column and the pole.

[0039] During inflation, the opening of the hemispherical structure formed by the thick-walled air chamber, which is connected by the inflation column, always faces upward, thus protecting the workers located above the protective device and preventing their safety tools and electrical components from falling down the pole and injuring them.

[0040] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
