[0005] However, when the pilot ladder on the above-mentioned ship is in use, the ladder collides with the anti-wear material on the deck when being retracted and extended on the deck, and the anti-wear material is subjected to friction and compression, resulting in deformation and damage at the connection between the anti-wear material and the deck. When the ladder is being retracted and extended, the gap between the ladder and the outer plate gradually increases. When the crew climbs up the ladder, the ladder is affected by wind and other factors, and the ladder sways greatly, resulting in a major safety hazard when the crew climbs. Summary of the Invention

[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. The described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0027] Example:

[0028] This embodiment introduces a pilot ladder retractable structure. Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, a pilot ladder retractable structure includes a deck 1, a handrail 2, a box 3, a winch 4, an outer plate 5, and a ladder 8. A first positioning seat 31 is integrally formed at the bottom of the box 3. A wear-resistant material 6 is provided on one side of the top of the deck 1. A connecting seat 61 is fixedly installed on the top of the deck 1 near the ladder 8. Connecting blocks 63 and 64 are integrally formed at both ends and the middle of the connecting seat 61 respectively.

[0029] A lifting cylinder 7 is fixedly installed on the side of the outer plate 5 away from the soft ladder 8. The telescopic end of the lifting cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to a connecting frame 71. The end of the connecting frame 71 away from the lifting cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to an abutment clamp 72. The soft ladder 8 includes symmetrically arranged connecting rods 81. The two ends of the two groups of connecting rods 81 are respectively hinged with a first side rod 82 and a second side rod 83. The adjacent ends of the first side rod 82 and the second side rod 83 are provided with a positioning lock rod 84;

[0030] The hoist 4 in the box 3 can retract and extend the soft ladder 8 wound on the outside of the output end. The soft ladder 8 can be guided downward by the top arc surface of the wear-resistant material 6 and extended to the outer plate 5. The crew can retract and extend the soft ladder 8 and climb the soft ladder 8 to carry out docking operations after sailing;

[0031] The anti-wear material 6 is welded to the deck 1 through the bottom connecting seat 61. The two sides of the bottom of the connecting seat 61 are positioned by bolts through the first positioning seat 31 and the second positioning seat 62 at the bottom of the box body 3, which increases the stability of the connection between the two sides of the bottom of the connecting seat 61 and the ship deck 1. In addition, the inner side of the arc-shaped anti-wear material 6 and the connecting seat 61 are reinforced by multiple groups of welded connecting blocks 63 and connecting blocks 64. In this way, when the soft ladder 8 is retracted or extended, the anti-wear material 6 is subjected to long-term compression and can still fit closely with the installation position of the deck 1 to prevent deformation, thereby allowing the arc-shaped anti-wear material 6 to be stably installed at the placement position of the soft ladder 8, and can play a role in stabilizing and guiding the soft ladder 8.

[0032] The first side rod 82 in the soft ladder 8 can slide in the guide groove 831 opened on the front side between the positioning lock rod 84 and the second side rod 83, and the positioning lock rod 84 can be rotated to make the positioning lock rod 84 correspondingly inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 832, so that the spacing between the two sides of the soft ladder 8 can be flexibly adjusted. When the soft ladder 8 is unrolled and climbed, the length can be positioned and the overall unwinding length of the soft ladder 8 can also be adjusted. The telescopic end of the jacking cylinder 7 drives the connecting frame 71 to be telescopic, so that the end of the connecting frame 71 can contact the clamp 72 to position the side rods on both sides of the soft ladder 8 against the guard plate 51. In this way, when the crew climbs on the soft ladder 8, it can ensure that the soft ladder 8 is positioned with the outer plate 5, which is more convenient for the crew to climb.

[0033] Among them, the bottom of the connecting seat 61 is a T-shaped structure, the second positioning seat 62 is an L-shaped structure, one side of the first positioning seat 31 and one side of the second positioning seat 62 are fixedly connected to the two sides of the bottom of the connecting seat 61 by bolts respectively, and the arc surface of one side of the anti-wear material 6 conflicts with the top of the outer plate 5, and the connecting block 63 and the connecting block 64 are respectively integrally formed with the inner arc surface of the anti-wear material 6, and the inner side of the arc-shaped anti-wear material 6 and the connecting seat 61 are reinforced by multiple groups of welded connecting blocks 63 and connecting blocks 64. In this way, when the soft ladder 8 is retracted and released, the anti-wear material 6 is subjected to long-term extrusion, and can still fit tightly with the installation position of the deck 1 to prevent deformation, so that the arc-shaped anti-wear material 6 can be stably installed at the placement position of the soft ladder 8, which can play a role in stabilizing and guiding the soft ladder 8.

[0034] Among them, a guard plate 51 is symmetrically fixed on one side of the outer plate 5, and the guard plate 51 is an L-shaped structure. A through groove 52 is opened at equal intervals on one side of the outer plate 5 near the guard plate 51. The soft ladder 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of the winch 4, and the bottom of the soft ladder 8 extends between the outer plate 5 and the guard plate 51. The soft ladder 8 conflicts with the arc-shaped surface of the top of the wear-resistant material 6. The first side rod 82 in the soft ladder 8 can slide in the guide groove 831 opened on the front side between the positioning lock rod 84 and the second side rod 83, and the positioning lock rod 84 can be rotated so that the positioning lock rod 84 is correspondingly inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 832. In this way, the spacing between the two sides of the soft ladder 8 can be flexibly adjusted. When the soft ladder 8 is unrolled and climbed, the length can be positioned and the overall unwinding length of the soft ladder 8 can be adjusted.

[0035] Among them, a guide groove 831 is provided on the outside of the second side rod 83, and positioning grooves 832 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the inner wall of the guide groove 831. A positioning lock rod 84 is rotatably installed on the end of the first side rod 82, and the first side rod 82 is inserted into the corresponding inner wall of the second side rod 83 through the bottom end of the positioning lock rod 84. The positioning lock rod 84 is a T-shaped structure, and one end of the positioning lock rod 84 is clamped in the corresponding positioning groove 832. The telescopic end of the jacking cylinder 7 drives the connecting frame 71 to be telescopic, so that the end of the connecting frame 71 can contact the clamp 72 to position the side rods on both sides of the soft ladder 8 against the guard plate 51. In this way, when the crew climbs on the soft ladder 8, it can ensure that the soft ladder 8 and the outer plate 5 are positioned, which is more convenient for the crew's climbing operation.

[0036] Working principle: When in use, the hoist 4 in the box body 3 can retract and extend the soft ladder 8 wound on the outside of the output end. The soft ladder 8 can be guided downward by the arc surface of the top of the wear-resistant material 6 and extended to the outer plate 5. The crew can retract and extend the soft ladder 8 and climb the soft ladder 8 to carry out docking operations after sailing. When the crew climbs on the soft ladder 8, the first side rod 82 in the soft ladder 8 can slide in the guide groove 831 opened on the front between the positioning lock rod 84 and the second side rod 83, and the positioning lock rod 84 can be rotated to make the positioning lock rod 84 close to the port. The jacking cylinder 7 drives the connecting frame 71 to extend and retract, so that the end of the connecting frame 71 abuts against the clamping head 72, and the side rods on both sides of the ladder 8 can be abutted and positioned with the guard plate 51. In this way, when the crew climbs on the ladder 8, the ladder 8 can be positioned with the outer plate 5, which makes the climbing operation more convenient for the crew.

[0037] The anti-wear material 6 is welded to the deck 1 through the bottom connecting seat 61, and the bottom two sides of the connecting seat 61 are positioned with bolts through the first positioning seat 31 and the second positioning seat 62 at the bottom of the box body 3, so as to increase the connection stability between the bottom two sides of the connecting seat 61 and the ship deck 1, and the inner side of the arc-shaped anti-wear material 6 and the connecting seat 61 are reinforced by multiple groups of welded connecting blocks 63 and connecting blocks 64. In this way, when the soft ladder 8 is retracted or released, the anti-wear material 6 is subjected to long-term extrusion and can still fit tightly with the installation position of the deck 1 to prevent deformation, so that the arc-shaped anti-wear material 6 can be stably installed at the placement position of the soft ladder 8, which can play a role in stabilizing and guiding the soft ladder 8.

[0038] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
