Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rescue rope ladder technology, and in particular to a rescue rope ladder that can be quickly released and retracted. Background Technology

[0002] A rescue rope ladder is a mobile ladder used to rescue and evacuate trapped people. It generally consists of two ropes and multiple steps and is frequently used in firefighting, rescue aircraft, and ships to rescue people who have fallen into the water.

[0003] Existing lifeline ladders are generally stored in a stacked manner. These ladders lack restraint devices during deployment, making them prone to twisting and affecting climbing and rescue effectiveness. Furthermore, people awaiting rescue or those who have been in the water for an extended period often lack the physical strength to climb long lifeline ladders. To facilitate rapid rescue of people in the water and to allow for neat deployment and retraction of lifeline ladders, a new type of lifeline ladder with rapid release and retraction is proposed. This ladder is equipped with storage and restraint components, allowing for neat storage of the lifeline and easy rapid deployment and retraction. Once a person in the water grasps the ladder, it can be quickly retracted, enabling them to be lifted quickly without climbing, preventing them from becoming too exhausted to climb the ladder and reach the ship. This design offers significantly improved rescue effectiveness and capability. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides a rescue rope ladder that can be quickly released and retracted. It is equipped with storage and restraint components, which can neatly store the rescue rope and facilitate quick release and retraction. After a person falls into the water grabs the rescue rope ladder, it can be quickly retracted, so that the person can be quickly lifted without climbing, preventing them from being unable to climb the rope ladder and enter the boat due to exhaustion. It has better rescue effect and rescue capability.

[0005] The present invention provides the following solution to the above-mentioned technical problems: a rescue rope ladder that can be quickly released and wound up, comprising a rescue rope ladder body, a conveyor chain, and a rope ladder storage rack. Two conveyor chains are provided. Connecting ropes are evenly and fixedly connected to the rescue rope ladder body. The rescue rope ladder body is connected to the conveyor chains via the connecting ropes. A winding and unwinding machine and a rope ladder conveyor frame are fixedly installed on the rope ladder storage rack. One end of the rescue rope ladder body is connected to the winding and unwinding machine. A drive motor is fixedly installed on the rope ladder conveyor frame. A drive rod is rotatably connected to the rope ladder conveyor frame. The drive end of the drive motor is connected to one drive rod. A transmission gear and a conveying wheel are fixedly connected to the drive rod. The transmission gears on both sides are meshed together. Conveying tooth blocks are evenly and fixedly installed on the conveying wheel corresponding to the conveyor chain. A guide roller is installed on the rope ladder conveyor frame.

[0006] The main body of the rescue rope ladder includes a safety rope, a ladder board, and a connecting hoop. The ladder board has a through hole corresponding to the safety rope, through which the safety rope passes. The ladder board is connected to the safety rope via the connecting hoop.

[0007] The conveyor chain includes rectangular chain blocks and chain ropes, and multiple rectangular chain blocks are connected into a chain by chain ropes.

[0008] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0009] Furthermore, the outer wall of the guide roller is designed with a concave structure, and the width of the concave section is consistent with the spacing between the two conveyor chains. The guide roller can smoothly transport the main body of the rescue rope ladder and the conveyor chain to the winding machine for winding.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom of the rope ladder storage rack has an entrance and exit corresponding to the main body of the rescue rope ladder, and the main body of the rescue rope ladder enters and exits through the entrance and exit.

[0011] Furthermore, a load-bearing bracket is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rope ladder storage rack, allowing the rope ladder storage rack to be placed at a height, making it easier for people who have fallen into the water to board the boat.

[0012] Furthermore, the safety ropes are provided in two sets, placed on both sides of the ladder board, with two safety ropes on each side.

[0013] Furthermore, the spacing between the rectangular chain blocks is consistent with the spacing between the conveying tooth blocks, so that the conveying tooth blocks can be engaged with the rectangular chain blocks.

[0014] Furthermore, the rectangular chain block is provided with a rectangular hole that matches the conveying tooth block.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are: This invention provides a rescue rope ladder that can be quickly released and retracted, and has the following advantages:

[0016] 1. When unwinding is required, start the unwinding machine to unwind and start the drive motor to rotate one side of the drive rod. The transmission gears of the two drive rods mesh and connect, so that the two drive rods can rotate synchronously. The two drive rods can drive the conveyor wheel to rotate. The conveyor teeth of the conveyor wheel can be locked into the rectangular chain blocks of the conveyor chain, so that the main body of the rescue rope ladder in the middle of the two conveyor chains can be stably, quickly and evenly discharged, thereby preventing the main body of the rescue rope ladder from getting tangled and affecting the release and use.

[0017] 2. The main body of the rescue rope ladder is placed on the water surface. People who fall into the water can cling to the safety rope and ladder board of the main body of the rescue rope ladder. When it is necessary to rescue people who have fallen into the water, the winding and unwinding machine can be started to reverse and the drive motor of the rope ladder conveyor frame can be started to reverse. The reverse drive motor can drive the conveyor wheels on both sides to reverse. The reverse of the conveyor wheels on both sides can drive the conveyor chains on both sides to lift through the conveyor teeth, so that people who have fallen into the water who are clinging to the main body of the rescue rope ladder can be lifted synchronously and stably without climbing. The winding and unwinding machine can then smoothly wind up the main body of the rescue rope ladder that is limited and retracted at the rope ladder conveyor frame.

[0018] 3. This type of rescue rope ladder is equipped with storage and restraint components, which can neatly store the rescue rope and facilitate quick release and reeling. After a person falls into the water grabs the rescue rope ladder, it can be quickly reeled in, so that the person can be quickly lifted without climbing, preventing them from being unable to climb the rope ladder and enter the boat due to exhaustion. It has a better rescue effect and rescue capability.
