Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a foldable straight ladder protection device for ships, belonging to the technical field of the design of straight ladder passages on ships. Background Art
[0002] A straight ladder is a commonly used vertical passage facility on ships. For a straight ladder with a relatively large length, to protect the safety of personnel, a protection ring is usually added at a height of more than 2 meters of the straight ladder to prevent crew members from falling and protect the safety of the crew. Conventional straight ladder protection rings are as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 .
[0003] Conventional straight ladder protection rings need to occupy a certain space and cannot be installed in areas with space limitations on ships. For example, a certain vehicle carrier has requirements for air draft limitations. When the masthead light is lowered, if a protection ring is installed on the straight ladder on the masthead light, it is easy to exceed the air draft height limit requirement, as shown in Figure 3 .
[0004] In response to this problem, there are two existing treatment methods:
[0005] The first method: There is no protection for the straight ladder on the mast. This method has the following problems: There is no protection device when crew members climb the straight ladder, which is not conducive to the safety of the crew;
[0006] The second method: Lower the height of the fixed part of the mast to reserve space for the protection ring of the straight ladder on the collapsible part of the mast. This method has the following problems: First, the weight of the collapsible part increases, which is not conducive to the operation of lowering the collapsible part. Second, this method is more likely to cause vibration of the mast. Content of the Utility Model
[0007] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a foldable straight ladder protection device for ships to solve the above technical problems.

[0026] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the attached drawings and specific embodiments.
[0027] See Figures 4 - 7 , a foldable straight ladder protection device for ships, including a straight ladder protection ring 2, including a pin shaft 7 with threads at both ends, a nut 5, and a connecting plate with a pin shaft hole; both ends of the straight ladder protection ring 2 are respectively connected to a planar connecting plate 3, and the planar connecting plate 3 is fixed on the connecting plate with a pin shaft hole through the pin shaft 7 and the nut 5; an eye plate 8 is fixedly arranged on the straight ladder protection ring 2, and the eye plates 8 between the vertically adjacent straight ladder protection rings 2 are detachably connected by a plurality of wire ropes 9; when the space occupied by the straight ladder protection ring 2 needs to be vacated, the wire rope 9 is removed, the nut is loosened, and the straight ladder protection ring 2 together with the planar connecting plate 3 is rotated around the pin shaft 7, so that the straight ladder protection ring 2 is turned to a state parallel to the straight ladder 1, and the nut 5 is tightened again.
[0028] See Figure 6 , both ends of the wire rope 9 are provided with detachable buckles, and are connected to the eye plate 8 through the buckles. The attached drawing specifically shows the buckles.
[0029] See Figure 4 , the connecting plate with a pin shaft hole is a right-angle connecting plate 4, one end of the right-angle connecting plate 4 is fixed to the side of the straight ladder 1, and the other end is fixed to the pin shaft 7 through the nut 5.
