It is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, so it cannot be understood as a limitation of the utility model.

[0026] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, terms such as "installation", "connection", and "coupling" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and it can be the connection inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific situations.

[0027] Referring to the attached Figure 1-2 , a maintenance ladder cage for a bulb tubular hydro-generating unit, comprising:

[0028] A support frame 1, with a pedal 2 provided at its top and a load-bearing plate 3 provided at its bottom;

[0029] A handrail frame 4, located at the top of the support frame 1, and two handrails 5 are provided on the inner sides of its two side walls;

[0030] Two support rods 6 are symmetrically arranged on the load-bearing plate 3, close to the rear end of the support frame 1; a slide seat one 7 that is slidably matched with the support rod 6 is provided on the support rod 6, and the two slide seats one 7 are connected by a connecting rod 8; a slide seat two 9 that is slidably matched with the connecting rod 8 is provided on the connecting rod 8, and a limit ring 10 that is lock-matched with a safety rope is provided on the slide seat two 9;

[0031] Two ladders 11 are provided at the front end of the support frame 1; the cross beams on the two ladders 11 are staggered.

[0032] In this embodiment, a semi-circular notch is provided on one side of the pedal 2 close to the center of the support frame 1, which facilitates the staff to hold the handrail 5 and enter and exit the support frame 1. A safety warning board 12 is rotatably connected to the middle of the front wall plate of the handrail frame 4. Safety warning words are engraved on the front end of the safety warning board 12, which can be viewed by the staff before entering the ladder cage to remind the staff to keep safety operation matters in mind.

[0033] In addition, two sets of symmetrically arranged lighting lamp groups 13 are provided at the rear end of the safety warning board 12. After the staff has viewed the safety warning words, rotate the safety warning board 12 so that the lighting lamp groups 13 face downwards. The two lighting lamp groups 13 can respectively illuminate the inside and outside of the support frame 1, facilitating the staff to clearly see the grasping points and the positions of the feet.

[0034] The support rod 6 is a hexagonal prism rod, and its top is fixedly welded to the bottom of the pedal 2. A hexagonal chute is provided inside the second sliding seat 9 and is slidably matched with the support rod 6. When the staff's foot slips or accidentally falls, the frictional resistance between the support rod 6 and the second sliding seat 9 will slow down the falling speed of the staff, giving the staff time for a quick response and avoiding serious injuries. Even if the staff does not react in time, when the second sliding seat 9 slides down to the bottom of the support rod 6, the second sliding seat 9 will land on the load-bearing plate 3 at the bottom of the support frame 1, which can prevent the staff from falling further and ensure that life is not threatened.

[0035] On the other hand, inclined gripping rods 14 are provided on the inner vertical rods of the two ladders 11; the gripping rods 14 are located outside the support frame 1. Considering people's climbing habits, the end of the gripping rod 14 far from the ladder 11 is lower than the end welded to the ladder 11, which can make it more convenient for the staff to hold and exert force, and can play a better role in leveraging.

[0036] The overhaul ladder cage of the bulb tubular hydro-generator set of the utility model can play a safety protection role when the staff accidentally falls through the cooperation of the limit ring 10 on the first sliding seat 7 and the safety rope buckle. Combined with the friction between the first sliding seat 7 and the support rod 6 to slow down the falling speed, it is beneficial to ensure the life safety of the staff, is very practical, and has good market application prospects.

[0037] The foregoing description of the specific exemplary embodiments of the present utility model is for purposes of illustration and exemplification. These descriptions are not intended to limit the present utility model to the precise forms disclosed, and it is apparent that many changes and variations are possible in light of the above teachings. The purpose of selecting and describing the exemplary embodiments is to explain the specific principles of the present utility model and its practical applications, so that those skilled in the art can implement and utilize the various different exemplary embodiments of the present utility model, as well as various different selections and changes. The scope of the present utility model is intended to be defined by the claims and their equivalents.
