[0029] Figures 1 to 5 A protective railing device for a container ship hatch cover 1 is shown, including the hatch cover 1, a protruding base for a fixed cargo securing device 2, a protective railing mounting bracket 3, a protective railing post 4, and a protective railing crossbar 5.

[0030] Cargo securing equipment is a device used to fix and support cargo units. Its core function is to prevent cargo from shifting or being damaged during transportation due to bumps or harsh environments. The base of fixed cargo securing equipment is directly welded to the hatch bottom, deck, pillars, and hatch covers, with the spacing between them designed according to the dimensions of the corner fitting holes of the container. This includes projecting bases: mainly used on hatch covers, pillars, and decks, with its main body protruding from the surface of the aforementioned structures to house and secure twist locks. There are three types: single projecting base 201, transverse double projecting base 202, and longitudinal double projecting base 203. Figure 2 As shown.

[0031] This invention utilizes the protruding base in the fixed cargo securing equipment as a pre-embedded part, and uses the guardrail mounting bracket 3 as the base of the guardrail post 4 to realize the installation of the guardrail post 4, and further installs the guardrail crossbar 5.

[0032] A protective railing device for a container ship hatch cover includes a hatch cover 1, a fixed cargo securing equipment protruding base 2 welded to the hatch cover 1, a protective railing mounting bracket 3, a protective railing post 4 connected to the protective railing mounting bracket 3, a fixed cargo securing equipment protruding base 2 mounted on the protective railing post 4, and a protective railing crossbar 5.

[0033] Guardrail mounting brackets, such as Figure 3 As shown, the guardrail mounting bracket 3 includes an integrated upright connecting plate and a clamping pad; an interface plate 32 is vertically arranged on the upper surface of the upper pad 311 in the integrated upright connecting plate, and an interface plate through hole 321 is provided on the interface plate 32; a limiting pin 3112 is fixed on the lower surface of the upper pad 311; an upper pad through hole 3111 is provided at the end of the upper pad 311 away from the interface plate 32; the clamping pad adopts a lower pad 312 with a pad stud 3122, the lower pad 312 is placed on the back of the mounting surface 22, and the pad stud 3122 passes upward through the mounting hole 21 and the upper pad through hole 3111 in sequence, and is then locked with bolts.

[0034] The upper pad 311 has an upper pad through hole 3111, and the lower pad 312 has a pad stud 3122. During installation, the lower pad 312 is placed into the fixed cargo securing device protruding base 2 through the mounting hole 21, with the pad stud 3122 facing upwards and passing through the mounting hole 21 of the fixed cargo securing device protruding base 2. The upper pad 311 is then placed on the mounting surface 22 of the fixed cargo securing device protruding base 2, so that the pad stud 3122 passes through the upper pad through hole 3111 of the upper pad 311. If necessary, a limit pin 3112 can be used to easily locate the installation position and align the pad stud 3122.

[0035] The interface plate 32 of the upper pad 311 is disposed above the upper pad 311, such as Figure 4 As shown, the connector 42 is provided with a post stud 422 in a direction perpendicular to the rod 41. Figure 5 As shown. During installation, the column stud 422 is passed through the interface plate 32 and secured with washers and nuts. The advantage of this design is that it provides a large operating space and makes it easy to observe whether the nuts are loose.

[0036] The guardrail post 4 includes a connector 42 that mates with the interface 32 of the guardrail mounting bracket 3 and a rod body 41. The connector 42 is provided with a connector stud 422 that mates with the through hole 321 of the interface plate.
