Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of anti-falling for aerial work, and in particular to a lightweight tower anti-falling device. Background Art

[0002] Power grid maintenance personnel face safety challenges when working at heights. In order to ensure the safety of workers working at heights when climbing pole towers, a T-shaped guide rail is usually fixed on the pole tower, and the workers working at heights are connected to a fall prevention device that moves on the T-shaped guide rail through a safety rope.

[0003] For example, the patent publication number CN113577592A discloses a "multifunctional anti-fall guide rail for iron towers". When a worker suddenly falls from a high altitude, the bound rope will pull down the rope connection block, so that the anti-fall column is inserted into the anti-fall hole, so that the anti-fall device can be quickly positioned and stuck, reducing the damage that may be caused by the impact of falling;

[0004] However, the fixed T-type guide rails have the problem of misalignment of the guide rail joints during long-term use. It was found that the guide rail joints mainly have misalignment in the front-to-back direction within 2 cm, and there may also be misalignment in the left-to-right direction during the installation process, causing the anti-fall safety buckle to be stuck at the misalignment, making it impossible for people to climb up safely.

[0005] Currently, most anti-fall devices are unable to achieve adaptive adjustment of misaligned guide rails. When the guide rail connection is misaligned, maintenance personnel are required to manually knock on the guide rail to restore it to a range where the anti-fall device can pass.

[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] Example:

[0039] A portable tower anti-fall device, such as Figure 1-8 As shown:

[0040] A plurality of sections of T-shaped guide rails 100 are vertically connected end to end on the tower in sequence, and the joints between adjacent T-shaped guide rails 100 have the problem of front-to-back and left-to-right misalignment.

[0041] The inner cavity of the main slider 2 is adapted to the T-shaped guide rail 100, and the main slider 2 moves relatively on the T-shaped guide rail 100; with the main slider 2 as the central body, four groups of side blocks 1 are symmetrically arranged at the four corners of the main slider 2, and the side blocks 1 are detachably mounted on the side wall of the main slider 2 through a bolt assembly, and a slide groove is formed between the side blocks 1 and the main slider 2, and an internal slider 9 is linearly slidably connected in the slide groove, and a first spring (not shown in the drawings) is connected between the internal slider 9 and the inner side wall of the slide groove;

[0042] The upper and lower ends of the guide wheel 5 are provided with conical portions 51, and the conical portions 51 at the upper and lower ends of the guide wheel 5 are symmetrically arranged, and the angle between the edge line of the conical portion 51 and the axis of the guide wheel 5 is 25°-35° (preferably 29°); the guide wheel 5 is freely rotatably connected to the outer wall of the coaxial rotating shaft 7, and the outer wall of the rotating shaft 7 is located above and below the guide wheel 5 and is movably sleeved with a rotating shaft spring block 6, and the end of the rotating shaft 7 is relatively fixed to the internal slider 9, and a second spring 8 is connected between the internal slider 9 and the rotating shaft spring block 6, and the spacing between the two groups of rotating shaft spring blocks 6 is greater than the length of the guide wheel 5.

[0043] like Figure 8 As shown, the main slider 2 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the guide wheel 5 and the length of the T-shaped guide rail 100 is the ascending direction. The four sets of guide wheels 5 on the main slider 2 are symmetrical in the length direction of the T-shaped guide rail 100 to achieve smooth sliding and efficient self-locking.

[0044] like Figure 6 As shown, the inner cavity top wall of the main slider 2 is provided with an upper protrusion 21, which is used to contact and cooperate with the upper surface of the flange of the T-shaped guide rail 100, and the upper protrusion 21 is an arc-shaped structure; Figure 3-4 As shown, two groups of left-right symmetrical lower protrusions 22 are provided on the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the main slider 2, and the inclined upper surface of the lower protrusion 22 is used to contact and cooperate with the lower surface of the flange of the T-shaped guide rail 100. The inclined upper surface of the T-shaped guide rail 100 is a 12° inclined surface that matches the lower surface of the flange of the T-shaped guide rail 100. Through the cooperation of the upper protrusion 21 in the inner cavity of the main slider 2 and the two groups of lower protrusions 22, not only can the T-shaped guide rail 100 enter the inner cavity of the main slider 2 for a certain limit, but also the displaced guide rail can smoothly pass through the internal cavity of the T-shaped guide rail 100.

[0045] like Figure 1-2As shown, the clamping end of the pressure block 4 adopts an eccentric wheel structure, and the eccentric part of the clamping end of the pressure block 4 is connected to the upper part of the main slider 2 through the locking screw group 3, and the other end of the pressure block 4 is connected to the user through a pull rope; a torsion spring is connected between the clamping end of the pressure block 4 and the upper part of the main slider 2. Under normal circumstances, the torsion spring ensures that the clamping end of the pressure block 4 will not clamp the T-shaped guide rail 100 during normal operation, and the main slider 2 can be smoothly pulled. In an emergency, the pressure block 4 is driven to rotate by the pull rope, so that the clamping end of the pressure block 4 rotates eccentrically relative to the locking screw group 3, thereby realizing that the clamping end of the pressure block 4 effectively clamps the T-shaped guide rail 100. At the same time, the lower surface of the flange of the T-shaped guide rail 100 and the upper surface of the lower protrusion 22 achieve surface-to-surface contact to improve friction.

[0046] like Figure 3 As shown, it is a state diagram under normal conditions. At this time, the circumferential surface of the guide wheel 5 contacts the flange side wall of the T-shaped guide rail 100, and the flange of the T-shaped guide rail 100 is relatively located between the two groups of tapered portions 51. There is a certain distance between the lower surface of the flange of the T-shaped guide rail 100 and the upper surface of the lower protrusion 22, and there is a certain distance between the upper surface of the flange of the T-shaped guide rail 100 and the upper surface of the upper protrusion 21.

[0047] When the joints between adjacent T-shaped guide rails 100 are misaligned left and right, the flange of the T-shaped guide rail 100 relatively pushes the guide wheel 5 to move radially, the internal slider 9 relatively moves in the slide groove and compresses the first spring to generate a reverse elastic force, thereby adapting to the radial misalignment of the T-shaped guide rail 100.

[0048] When the joints between adjacent T-guide rails 100 are misaligned front to back, the flanges of the misaligned T-guide rails 100 first contact the inclined surfaces of the tapered portions 51 of the guide wheel 5, thereby driving the guide wheel 5 to move axially relative to the rotating shaft 7 and contact the rotating shaft spring block 6, thereby pushing the rotating shaft spring block 6 close to the corresponding internal slider 9 and compressing the second spring 8, so as to enable the misaligned T-guide rail 100 to slide quickly into the normal circumferential sliding surface of the guide wheel 5, that is, the front and rear pairs of guide wheels 5 of the mechanism can work simultaneously at different plane heights at this time, thereby achieving front and rear direction adjustment of the misaligned T-guide rail 100, thereby adapting to the axial misalignment of the T-guide rail 100.

[0049] It can also adapt to the T-shaped guide rail 100 left and right, front and back misalignment.

[0050] Parts of the tower anti-fall device, such as the side block 1, the main slider 2, the pressure block 4, the guide wheel 5, the shaft spring block 6, the shaft 7, and the internal slider 9, can be designed with aluminum alloy, which can reduce the weight of the device while ensuring the strength.

[0051] The above-mentioned embodiments only express the specific implementation of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
