[0035] The pedals 30 are provided in a plurality of pieces, and the plurality of pedals 30 are movably provided along the length direction of the first ladder foot 10 and the second ladder foot 11. In the embodiment of the present application, two pedals 30 are preferably provided on the ladder foot. Among them, the two sides of one end of the pedal 30 near the lower end of the ladder foot are movably connected with the first ladder foot 10 through a pin shaft, and the two sides of the other end of the pedal 30 are movably connected with the pedal 30 near the upper end of the ladder foot and the pin of the second ladder foot 11 through a folding connecting plate 303. Therefore, the pedal 30 near the lower end of the ladder foot serves as a driven pedal 30.

[0036] The pedal 30 arranged near the upper end of the ladder foot is used as the active pedal 30. The driven pedal 30 is driven by operating the active pedal 30. The upper surfaces of the active pedal 30 and the driven pedal 30 are both provided with a plurality of anti-slip grooves to increase the friction when the user steps on the pedal 30, making it safer to use.

[0037] The left and right sides of one end of the active pedal 30 are movably connected to the first ladder foot 10 through a rotating shaft, so that the pedal 30 can be turned upside down on the first ladder foot 10. When the pedal 30 is turned to a horizontal state, the other end of the pedal 30 can be supported on the reinforcing rod 12 of the second ladder foot 11. A positioning groove 301 is provided at one end of the pedal 30 supported on the reinforcing rod 12, and the positioning groove 301 is arranged at the bottom of the pedal 30. Therefore, the pedal 30 can be matched and engaged with the reinforcing rod 12 on the second ladder foot 11 through the positioning groove 301 at the bottom, thereby preventing the pedal 30 from sliding in the horizontal direction, and further improving the overall stability of the pedal 30 and the folding ladder.

[0038] The pedal 30 is provided with a mounting portion 302 for mounting the hook structure 20 at the other end side of the positioning groove 301. The mounting portion 302 is provided with a concave mounting groove 3021 on the surface of the pedal 30. The mounting groove 3021 is provided with a notch 3023 on one side of the pedal 30. Specifically, the hook structure 20 comprises a pressing plate 201, a hook member 202 and an elastic member 203. The mounting groove 3021 is provided with a convex member 3022 protruding upward. The elastic member 203 is vertically arranged. The lower end of the elastic member 203 is sleeved on the convex member 3022. The bottom of one end of the pressing plate 201 has a slot 2012 for assembling the upper end of the elastic member 203. The elastic member 203 used in the embodiment of the present application is a telescopic spring.

[0039] When installing the pressing plate 201 , first install the elastic member 203 on the protruding member 3022 , then align the slot 2012 set at one end of the pressing plate 201 with the upper end of the elastic member 203 , and press down one end of the pressing plate 201 to install it in the installation slot 3021 . In addition, both sides of the pressing plate 201 and the groove wall of the installation groove 3021 are provided with shaft holes 2011 for passing the shaft rod 204 through the shaft holes 2011. A plurality of reinforcing plates 2013 are provided at the bottom of the pressing plate 201. The shaft rod 204 passes through the shaft holes 2011 and passes through the reinforcing plates 2013, thereby improving the connection strength between the pressing plate 201 and the shaft rod 204, so that one end of the pressing plate 201 provided with the groove hole 2012 is movably connected to the installation groove 3021 through the shaft rod 204, and the pressing plate 201 is also elastically installed on the installation groove 3021 of the pedal 30 through the elastic member 203, and the other end of the pressing plate 201 can be arranged on the notch 3023. Therefore, the hook structure 20 can be completely arranged in the installation portion 302 of the pedal 30, improving the assembly stability between the hook structure 20 and the pedal 30, and the overall effect is higher.

[0040] When installing the hook member 202, the hook member 202 is provided with a connecting end 2021 and a locking hook end 2022. The connecting end 2021 is provided with a connecting hole. The connecting end 2021 is movably connected to the shaft rod 204 penetrating the reinforcing plate 2013 at the bottom of the pressing plate 201 through its connecting hole, thereby making the hook member 202 movably connected to the bottom of the pressing plate 201.

[0041] The lock hook end 2022 of the hook member 202 extends to the bottom of the pedal 30 through the slot 3023, and the outer side surface of the lock hook end 2022 is provided with a guide slope 2023 for guiding the sliding toward the reinforcing rod 12, and the inner side surface of the lock hook end 2022 is provided with a hooking portion 2024, and the hooking direction of the hooking portion 2024 is set toward the bottom direction of the installation slot 3021.

[0042] Therefore, during the locking action, the pressing plate 201 is pressed downward manually, and under the elastic action of the elastic member 203, the elastic member 203 will push the pressing plate 201 upward to be installed at one end of the mounting groove 3021. Then, the end of the pressing plate 201 arranged at the groove 3023 will press down the top of the hook member 202, so that the guide inclined surface 2023 of the locking hook end 2022 of the hook member 202 can slide downward along the surface of the reinforcing rod 12. When the hooking portion 2024 slides to the bottom of the reinforcing rod 12, the pressing plate 201 can be lifted with a little force to make the hooking portion 2024 hook the reinforcing rod 12 of the ladder foot.

[0043] During the unlocking action, the user holds the pressing plate 201 configured at one end of the slot 3023, manually lifts the pressing plate 201 to flip it upward, and the pressing plate 201 abuts against the bottom of the hook member 202 through the limiting members 2014 on both sides of its bottom, and the bottom of the hook member 202 is provided with a disengaging slope 2025 for abutting against the limiting member 2014 of the pressing plate 201, and the disengaging slope 2025 is gradually inclined upward from the connecting end 2021 and the lock hook end 2022 of the hook member 202 to the middle of the hook member 202. When the user manually lifts up the pressing plate 201, the limiting member 2014 of the pressing plate 201 slides along the tripping slope 2025 from the connecting end 2021 of the hook member 202 to the locking hook end 2022, so that the locking hook end 2022 can flip upward with the pressing plate 201 until the locking hook end 2022 is detached from the reinforcing rod 12. The operation is simple, physical effort is saved, and the user's needs for convenient use are met.

[0044] Thus, the hook structure 20 provided in the embodiment of the present application is mainly composed of two parts, namely, a pressing plate 201 and a hanging member 202, and the pressing plate 201 and the hook member 202 are both integrally formed. When the hook structure 20 is installed and used, only one end of the pressing plate 201 needs to be elastically mounted on the mounting groove 3021 of the pedal 30 through the elastic member 203, and the other end of the pressing plate 201 is arranged in the notch 3023 of the mounting groove 3021, so that the entire hook structure 20 can be completely assembled into the mounting portion 302 of the pedal 30, thereby improving the sense of integrity between the hook structure 20 and the pedal 30; the connecting end 2021 of the hook member 202 is movably connected to the bottom of the pressing plate 202, so that it is easier to hook the reinforcing rod 12 on the ladder foot. Compared with the previous locking structure with many parts and an integrally formed design, the hook structure 20 in the embodiment of the present application is easier to install and use, and the pressing plate 201 and the hook member 202 can be replaced independently, reducing the replacement cost, having a high humanized design, and improving the user experience.

[0045] The above-mentioned implementation modes are only preferred implementation modes of the present invention, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by technicians in this field on the basis of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
