[0022] Example: See Figure 1-Figure 3 A maintenance and protection device for a low-top elevator comprises a slide rail, a first support rod 1 and a second support rod 2 arranged on the elevator car roof. One end of the first support rod 1 is hinged to a fixed base 4 fixedly installed on the elevator car roof through a first rotating shaft 3, and the other end is a free end, and a support plate 17 is hinged to the end through a ball joint to increase the force bearing area and the supporting effect. A first slide seat 5 is installed on the first support rod 1, and the first slide seat 5 is connected with the first support rod 1 in a sliding manner so that it can move along the length direction of the first support rod 1; one end of the second support rod 2 is hinged to a second slide seat 7 installed on the slide rail in a sliding manner through a second rotating shaft 6 so that the end can move in a direction close to or away from the fixed base 4, and the other end is hinged to the first slide seat 5. Specifically, a slide groove is provided on the first support rod 1, and a ball bearing is provided on the first slide seat 5. The bearing rolls in the slide groove so that the first slide seat 5 can slide along the slide groove.

[0023] When the second slide 7 moves from one end of the slide rail away from or close to the fixed base 4 to the other end, the first slide 5 moves from one end of the first support rod 1 close to or away from the fixed base 4 to the other end, and the height between the free end of the first support rod 1 and the elevator car top changes from the minimum height to the maximum height or from the maximum height to the minimum height;

[0024] It also includes a limiting structure, which can limit the movement of the first slide 5 or the second slide 7, or the rotation of the first strut 1, or the rotation of the second strut 2 when the height between the free end of the first strut 1 and the elevator car top is at the maximum height.

[0025] Specifically, the fixed base 4 is fixed on the roof beam of the elevator car, and the second slide 7 is slidably mounted on the slide rail. In order to improve the automation of the movement of the first support rod 1, this embodiment also includes a first driving mechanism, which is connected to the second slide 7 and is used to drive the second slide 7 to move. Specifically, the first driving mechanism includes a first hydraulic mechanism 8 installed on the top of the elevator car, which has a retractable hydraulic rod 9, and the end of the hydraulic rod 9 is connected to the second slide 7. In order to ensure the structural stability and strength after the second support rod 2 props up the first support rod 1, in this embodiment, the limiting structure includes a second hydraulic mechanism 10 installed on the second slide 7, which has a retractable hydraulic push rod 11. Correspondingly, a limiting hole is provided on the elevator car top. Specifically, the limiting hole is arranged on the slide rail. When the height between the free end of the first support rod 1 and the elevator car top is the maximum height, the hydraulic push rod 11 is opposite to the limiting hole and is retracted and inserted into the limiting hole under the action of hydraulic pressure to fix the second slide 7, thereby ensuring the stability of the entire supporting structure. When the maintenance is completed, the hydraulic push rod 11 retracts and exits the limiting hole, and the second slide 7 can slide normally. In this embodiment, in order to ensure the smoothness of the relative movement between the first strut 1 and the second strut 2 and prevent jamming, when the height between the free end of the first strut 1 and the elevator car top reaches the maximum height, the angle between the second strut 2 and the side rod section of the first strut 1 close to the fixed base 4 is less than 90 degrees. In this way, when the free end of the first strut 1 abuts against the upper floor slab or the first strut 1 rotates to the maximum limit angle, the movement of the second strut 2 can continue to drive the first slide 5 to move along the first strut 1 until the first slide 5 moves to the end of the first strut 1 close to the free end, so as to better form the final triangular support structure.

[0026] In addition, a limiting structure can also be provided on the fixed base 4 to limit the rotation angle of the first support rod 1 so that it can only rotate within a preset angle range. In this way, when the first support rod 1 rotates to the maximum angle, at this time, the height between the free end of the first support rod 1 and the elevator car top is the safe inspection height. After it stops rotating, the continued movement of the second slide 7 can still push the first slide 5 to move along the first support rod 1 to the end close to the free end, and finally form a relatively stable triangular support structure. In addition, in order to ensure the smoothness of movement, a second driving mechanism can also be provided, and the second driving mechanism is connected to the second support rod 2, and is used to drive the second support rod 2 to rotate around the second rotating shaft 6. Specifically, the second support rod 2 is fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft 6, and the second driving mechanism includes a driving motor, and the motor shaft of the driving motor is transmission-connected to the second rotating shaft 6, and is used to drive the second rotating shaft 6 to drive the second support rod 2 to rotate around the second rotating shaft 6. Of course, in the specific implementation, it is also possible to only use the first driving mechanism to drive the second slide 7 to move, and drive the second rotating shaft 6 to rotate through gear transmission or other transmission forms to drive the second support rod 2 to rotate. It is preferably set independently because when the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2 move relative to each other, the moving speed of the second slide 7 is difficult to match the moving speed of the first slide 5, and assuming that the moving speed of the second slide 7 is a uniform motion, the moving speed of the first slide 5 is a non-uniform motion. Therefore, the method of independently designing the driving mechanism makes it easier to achieve the movement matching of the first slide 5 and the second slide 7, so as to ensure the movement stability and smoothness of the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2, to ensure that the support structure formed by the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2 can be well supported and folded, and has a certain support strength during the supporting process, to ensure that it can smoothly support the safety maintenance height for maintenance personnel.

[0027] In this embodiment, a first detection switch 12 and a second detection switch 13 are respectively installed at both ends of the first support rod 1. When the first slide 5 contacts the first detection switch 12, the first drive mechanism can be stopped and the second hydraulic mechanism 10 can be driven to drive the hydraulic push rod 11 to insert into the limit hole. When the first slide 5 contacts the second detection switch 13, the first drive mechanism can be stopped. The elevator top floor door 14 is also included. The elevator top floor door 14 is provided with a door lock 15 and a door lock switch 16 matched with the door lock 15. When the door lock 15 is unlocked and the door lock switch 16 is actuated, the first drive mechanism can be started. When the door lock 15 is locked and the door lock switch 16 is actuated, the second hydraulic mechanism 10 can be driven to drive the hydraulic push rod 11 out of the limit hole and the first drive mechanism can be started. Specifically, the door lock switch 16 and the detection switch can be connected to the operation circuit of each drive mechanism or hydraulic mechanism, and can also be controlled to start or stop, forward or reverse through the elevator control system. The specific implementation methods are all existing control technologies and will not be repeated.

[0028] During specific use, when the maintenance personnel need to enter the elevator car top for maintenance, the elevator is stopped at a set height, and the door lock 15 of the elevator top floor door 14 is unlocked to make the door lock 15 linked to the door lock switch 16 to act, and the first hydraulic mechanism 8 and the second drive mechanism receive the action signal of the door lock switch 16 and start to operate, and the hydraulic rod 9 pushes the second slide 7 forward along the slide rail installed on the elevator car top beam, and the first support rod 1 starts to rotate from the minimum height between its free end and the elevator car top. During the rotation process, due to the length restrictions of each rotating pair and rod, the first slide 5 slides upward along the slide groove on the first support rod 1, and when the support plate 17 on the first support rod 1 is against the top floor slab of the elevator shaft or the first support rod 1 is rotated to the set maximum angle, that is, the first support rod 1 is automatically When the height between the end and the elevator car top reaches the maximum height (safety inspection height), the first support rod 1 stops rotating, and the second slide 7 continues to move forward, so that the first slide 5 continues to move toward the free end of the first support rod 1 until the first slide 5 contacts the first detection switch 12, and the movement stops. At the same time, the second hydraulic mechanism 10 drives the hydraulic push rod 11 to insert into the limit hole to realize structural fixation, so that the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2 are fixed in this position. At this time, the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2 form a stable triangular support structure, and the support plate 17 is supported on the top floor of the elevator shaft or is limited to a certain inclination angle. Maintenance personnel can safely enter the car top position and safely inspect the elevator. At the same time, it can also prevent the elevator from accidentally hitting the top, providing a certain protective effect.

[0029] When the maintenance personnel leave the elevator car top after the inspection is completed, the floor door lock 15 is reset to reset the door lock switch 16, the second hydraulic mechanism 10 makes the hydraulic push rod 11 withdraw from the limit hole, and the first hydraulic mechanism 8 and the second drive mechanism run in reverse, the hydraulic rod 9 makes the second slide 7 slide rail move backward, the first support rod 1 rotates around the first rotating shaft 3, and the first slide 5 moves downward along the slide groove on the first support rod 1. When the height between the free end of the first support rod 1 and the elevator car top reaches the minimum height, the first slide 5 contacts the second detection switch 13, the first hydraulic mechanism 8 stops running, and the entire support structure is reset and folded. The maintenance personnel closes the floor door and completes the inspection.

[0030] The utility model provides a first support rod and a second support rod on the elevator car top, and the first support rod is hinged to the second support rod, the two support rods are hinged to the elevator car top, and one end of the second support rod can slide on the elevator car top, and the other end can slide along the first support rod. When maintenance personnel enter the car top for maintenance, the second support rod is pushed to move, so that the second support rod props up the first support rod, and after propping up, the first support rod and the second support rod form a triangular support structure, and finally the support structure is fixed by a limiting structure to ensure that the propping height of the support structure reaches a preset maintenance safety height, which plays a good supporting and anti-top impact role, thereby ensuring the safety of maintenance personnel.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit the technical solution. Ordinary technicians in this field should understand that those modifications or equivalent replacements of the technical solution of the utility model without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution of the utility model should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
