Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of vehicle component technology, specifically relating to a boarding ladder that also has a decorative function. Background Technology
[0002] Car loading ramps are devices used to assist people in getting on and off vehicles, and they can be broadly categorized into the following types:
[0003] Fixed boarding stairs: These are typically installed in specific locations on vehicles, such as large buses and construction vehicles. While their fixed location provides stable assistance for passengers to board, they may affect the vehicle's maneuverability.
[0004] Reversible boarding stairs: These stairs can be stored on the side of the vehicle when not in use, and can be manually or electrically flipped out to form a step for passengers. For example, some off-road vehicles or multi-purpose vehicles are equipped with this type of reversible boarding stairs, which facilitates passengers getting on and off the vehicle when needed, and can be folded up when not in use, without affecting the vehicle's appearance or maneuverability.
[0005] Modular loading ladders: These consist of multiple components that can be assembled and disassembled as needed. For example, Shaanxi Heavy Duty Automobile Co., Ltd. has obtained a patent for a multi-functional off-road vehicle loading step and its modular loading ladder. The left and right step connecting rods, step bodies, and other components can be disassembled and reassembled into a loading ladder. After use, it can be disassembled back into a loading step.
[0006] Mobile boarding stairs: These are usually stand-alone units that can be placed next to vehicles as needed for easy passenger boarding and alighting. These stairs offer good flexibility and are suitable for various types of vehicles.
[0007] For anti-slip and aesthetic purposes, carpets are usually laid on the upper side of the steps when using boarding stairs. However, during outdoor use, rain or water stains on passengers' shoes can cause the carpet on the steps to absorb some moisture. If this moisture is not removed in time, it will cause the carpet to be damaged prematurely.
[0008] Secondly, when passengers pass over the steps, dust will remain on the carpet, which will cause the carpet to become dull and the overall visual effect of the steps to deteriorate. Therefore, this application proposes a boarding stairs that also has a decorative function. Summary of the Invention
[0009] The purpose of this invention is to provide a boarding ladder that also has a decorative function, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0010] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a boarding ladder with decorative function, comprising a storage box, a boarding frame, and a telescopic rod, wherein the boarding frame is connected to the output end of the telescopic rod, and the other end of the telescopic rod is connected to an upper support set inside the storage box;
[0011] The loading rack is equipped with several pedal assemblies, and the side of the pedal assembly away from the storage box is decorated with decorative patterns.
[0012] The pedal assembly includes a side plate, a top plate, a boarding blanket, and a rubber sheet. The boarding blanket is laid on the rubber sheet, and the rubber sheet is provided with a number of ventilation holes.
[0013] The pedal assembly is equipped with a drying unit. When the drying unit is activated, hot air is blown to the boarding mat through the ventilation holes.
[0014] The pedal assembly is equipped with a dust removal unit. When the dust removal unit is turned on, it will tap the boarding mat, causing the dust adhering to the boarding mat to separate from the boarding mat under the action of inertia.
[0015] Preferably, the boarding rack has at least two states, including a stowed state and an unfolded state. When the boarding rack is in the stowed state, it is retracted into the storage box.

[0037] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0038] Reference Figures 1-8 A loading ladder with decorative function includes a storage box 1, a loading frame 2, and a telescopic rod 3. A pivot is inserted into the loading frame 2, and a lower support 4 is inserted into the pivot. The loading frame 2 is connected to the output end of the telescopic rod 3, and the other end of the telescopic rod 3 is connected to an upper support 5. The upper support 5 is fixedly installed in the storage box 1.
[0039] The telescopic rod 3 is connected to the loading rack 2 via components such as a pivot, lower support 4, and upper support 5, allowing the loading rack 2 to have at least two states, including a retracted state and an extended state. When the loading rack 2 is in the retracted state, it is stored inside the storage box 1. When the loading rack 2 is in the extended state, it rests against the ground. Mobile loading ladder: This is usually a stand-alone device that can be placed next to the vehicle as needed for convenient passenger boarding and alighting. The above solution is one type of mobile loading ladder. The difference is that when not in use, the loading ladder is stored inside the storage box 1, eliminating the need for additional storage space and making it convenient to use.
[0040] The storage box 1 is equipped with a boarding gate. When the boarding frame 2 is in the unfolded state, it rests against the ground. Passengers can reach the boarding gate through the boarding frame 2, enter the vehicle through the boarding gate, and exit the vehicle through the boarding gate via the step assembly 6 on the boarding frame 2.
[0041] To facilitate climbing, several pedal assemblies 6 are provided on the boarding frame 2. The side of the pedal assembly 6 away from the storage box 1 is decorated with decorative patterns. When the boarding frame 2 is in the storage state, the decorative patterns on the pedal assembly 6 face away from the storage box 1, which serves a decorative purpose.
[0042] Specifically, the pedal assembly 6 includes a side plate 601, a grid plate 602, a top plate 603, and a rubber plate 605. A connecting shaft is provided within the side plate 601, which is inserted into the boarding frame 2. Two connecting shafts are provided, located at the top and bottom of the side plate 601 respectively. Two side plates 601 are provided, located on opposite sides of the grid plate 602. The top plate 603 is located above the grid plate 602 and has a groove within it. A boarding mat 604 is placed within the groove. It should be noted that the boarding mat 604 is laid on the rubber plate 605. The rubber plate 605 is made of elastic rubber material, which is inherently elastic, providing a softer feel and greater comfort when stepped on. The use of the rubber plate 605 also allows the boarding mat 604 to sway slightly, which can be used to remove dust adhering to the boarding mat 604.
[0043] It should be noted that, in order to increase the breathability of the boarding blanket 604 and prevent the boarding blanket 604 from producing odors due to not being able to contact with air, a number of ventilation holes 606 are provided on the rubber plate 605.
[0044] However, during outdoor use, rain or water stains on passengers' shoes can cause the carpet on the pedals to absorb some moisture. If this moisture is not removed in time, it can cause the carpet to be damaged prematurely.
[0045] Specifically, when passengers board the vehicle on rainy days or when their shoes are wet, water will adhere to the boarding mat 604. At this time, the boarding mat 604 needs to be dried to prevent it from being corroded by prolonged contact with water. Therefore, a drying unit 7 is provided on the pedal assembly 6. The drying unit 7 is located on the lower side of the pedal assembly 6. When the drying unit 7 is activated, hot air is blown to the boarding mat 604 through the ventilation holes 606 to dry the boarding mat 604.
[0046] Specifically, the drying unit 7 includes a power pump 701, a drying main pipe 702, and a heating unit. The air inlet pipe of the power pump 701 is connected to the outside air, and the air outlet pipe of the power pump 701 is connected to the drying main pipe 702. The drying main pipe 702 is connected to several drying exhaust pipes 703, and the drying exhaust pipes 703 are aligned with the grid mesh holes in the grid plate 602. The heating unit is installed inside the drying main pipe 702 and is used to heat the air inside the drying main pipe 702.
[0047] Gas is drawn into the drying main pipe 702 by the power pump 701. After being heated by the heating unit, the gas is discharged through the drying exhaust pipe 703. The drying exhaust pipe 703 is aligned with the grid mesh in the grid plate 602. The grid mesh is aligned with the vent holes 606 in the rubber plate 605. The vent holes 606 are aligned with the car mat 604. Therefore, the gas is ultimately directed toward the car mat 604, which allows the car mat 604 to dry quickly.
[0048] When passengers pass over the boarding step, dust will remain on the carpet, which will cause the carpet color to become dull and the overall visual effect of the boarding step to deteriorate. Therefore, this application proposes a boarding step that also has a decorative function.
[0049] In order to remove dust from the boarding mat 604, a dust removal unit 8 is provided on the pedal assembly 6. When the dust removal unit 8 is turned on, the drying unit 7 is in the on state (at this time, the heating unit in the drying unit 7 can be turned off). The dust removal unit 8 will tap the boarding mat 604, causing the dust adhering to the boarding mat 604 to separate from the boarding mat 604 under the action of inertia. The air blown out by the drying unit 7 will blow away the dust separated by inertia.
[0050] Specifically, the dust removal unit 8 includes a drive motor 801 and a mounting base 802. The output end of the drive motor 801 is connected to a push-pull plate 803. The push-pull plate 803 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 802. The mounting base 802 is fixedly installed on the grid plate 602.
[0051] A connecting plate 804 is hinged to one end of the push-pull plate 803 away from the drive motor 801. A lifting plate 805 is provided at the other end of the connecting plate 804. The lifting plate 805 is hinged to the connecting plate 804, and several striking rods 806 are installed on the upper side of the lifting plate 805. The striking rods 806 are aligned with the vent holes 606 in the rubber plate 605, and the striking rods 806 and the vent holes 606 can only move up and down relative to each other. It should be noted that the number of striking rods 806 is much less than the number of vent holes 606, so that the vehicle mat 604 can breathe normally through the vent holes 606.
[0052] It is elastic and when the boarding mat 604 is hit by the striking rod 806, the boarding mat 604 can shake slightly. The shaking can be used to remove dust adhering to the boarding mat 604.
[0053] The drive motor 801 can rotate in both directions. Its rotation in both directions can cause the push-pull plate 803 to rotate upward or downward. The push-pull plate 803 can push the lifting plate 805 and the knocking rod 806 to shake up and down through the connecting plate 804, knocking the boarding mat 604 in the up and down direction. This causes the dust on the boarding mat 604 to separate from the boarding mat 604 under the action of inertia. With the air blown out by the drying unit 7, the dust can be blown away from the position of the boarding mat 604.
[0054] Working principle:
[0055] When the drying unit 7 is started, gas is drawn into the drying main pipe 702 by the power pump 701. After being heated by the heating unit, the gas is discharged through the drying exhaust pipe 703. The drying exhaust pipe 703 is aligned with the grid mesh in the grid plate 602, the grid mesh is aligned with the vent holes 606 in the rubber plate 605, and the vent holes 606 are aligned with the vehicle mat 604. Therefore, the gas is ultimately directed toward the vehicle mat 604, which allows the vehicle mat 604 to dry quickly.
[0056] The drive motor 801 can rotate in both directions. Its rotation in both directions can cause the push-pull plate 803 to rotate upward or downward. The push-pull plate 803 can push the lifting plate 805 and the knocking rod 806 to shake up and down through the connecting plate 804, knocking the boarding mat 604 in the up and down direction. This causes the dust on the boarding mat 604 to separate from the boarding mat 604 under the action of inertia. With the air blown out by the drying unit 7, the dust can be blown away from the position of the boarding mat 604.
[0057] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can 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.
