A connecting rod is connected to the center position of one side of the pressing block close to the second joint, and the connecting rod is arranged inside the intermediate shaft, and the push rod is fixedly connected to the connecting rod.

[0008] The sum of the lengths of the push rod and the connecting rod is greater than the length of the intermediate shaft;

[0009] An annular cover is provided on the outer periphery of the pressing block, and a limiting mechanism is provided between the pressing block and the second joint.

[0010] Furthermore, the diameter of the connecting rod is larger than the diameter of the pushing rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism includes a telescopic rod and a spring, the telescopic rod is formed by an outer rod and an inner rod being sleeved together, the end of the outer rod is fixed to the outside of the second joint, and the end of the inner rod is fixed to the side of the pressing block close to the second joint. A spring is sleeved on the telescopic rod, and the outer rod and the inner rod are limited in position by a pin shaft.

[0019] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The following embodiments can enable those skilled in the art to more fully understand the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this specific embodiment adopts the following technical solution: it includes a first joint 1 and a second joint 2 that are hinged to each other, two first joints 1 and two second joints 2 are respectively provided, the two second joints 2 are arranged on the outside of the two first joints 1, and fixed blocks 3 are respectively provided on the outside of the two first joints 1, and a fixed block 3 is provided between the two second joints 2. The setting of the fixed block 3 makes the hinge structure of the first joint 1 and the second joint 2 more stable and safer to use.

[0021] like Figure 3 As shown, the first joint 1 and the second joint 2 are provided with an intermediate shaft 4 running through the two. The intermediate shaft 4 is a hollow structure, and one end of the intermediate shaft 4 extends out of the second joint 2. An end block 5 is provided on one side of the intermediate shaft 4, and a pressing block 6 is provided on the other side.

[0022] like Figure 4 As shown, two limiting columns 7 are respectively connected to the upper and lower sides of the end block 5 close to the second joint 2. A plurality of corresponding through holes 8 are provided in the circumferential direction of the first joint 1 and the second joint 2. The end block 5 drives the limiting columns 7 to be inserted into the through holes 8 to lock the first joint 1 and the second joint 2. After the first joint 1 and the second joint 2 rotate to different angles, the limiting columns 7 are inserted into the through holes 8 at different positions to lock them.

[0023] A push rod 9 is connected to the middle position of one side of the end block 5 close to the second joint 2, and the push rod 9 is arranged inside the intermediate shaft 4. A connecting rod 10 is connected to the center position of one side of the pressing block 6 close to the second joint 2, and the connecting rod 10 is arranged inside the intermediate shaft 4, and the pushing rod 9 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 10. The diameter of the connecting rod 10 is larger than the diameter of the pushing rod 9, and the sum of the lengths of the pushing rod 9 and the connecting rod 10 is larger than the length of the intermediate shaft 4. The pressing block 6 is pressed toward the second joint 2, and the pushing rod 9 is pushed to move by the connecting rod 10, driving the end block 5 and the limiting column 7 to move away from the second joint 2, so that the limiting column 7 leaves the through hole 8, releasing the lock on the first joint 1 and the second joint 2, and the first joint 1 and the second joint 2 can be rotated to adjust the deployment angle.

[0024] An annular cover 61 is provided on the periphery of the pressing block 6, and a limiting mechanism is provided between the pressing block 6 and the second joint 2. The limiting mechanism includes a telescopic rod 11 and a spring 12. The telescopic rod 11 is formed by sleeves of an outer rod and an inner rod. The end of the outer rod is fixed to the outside of the second joint 2, and the end of the inner rod is fixed to the side of the pressing block 6 close to the second joint 2. A spring 12 is sleeved on the telescopic rod 11. The ends of the outer rod close to and away from the second joint 2 are respectively provided with limiting holes, and a pin 13 is movably inserted into the limiting hole. A corresponding limiting hole is provided on the inner rod, and the pin 13 passes through the limiting hole at the end of the outer rod close to the second joint 2. The hole and the limiting holes on the inner rod limit the positions of the outer rod and the inner rod, so that the pressing block 6 remains in a pressed state, and the limiting column 7 will not be inserted into the through hole 8, so as to avoid affecting the rotation adjustment of the first joint 1 and the second joint 2. After the adjustment is completed, the limiting column 7 is inserted into the through hole 8 to lock the first joint 1 and the second joint 2. The pin 13 passes through the limiting hole at the end of the outer rod away from the second joint 2 and the limiting hole on the inner rod to limit the positions of the outer rod and the inner rod, ensuring that the limiting column 7 is located in the through hole 8 and remains in a locked state. The annular cover 61 can protect the telescopic rod 11 and the spring 12 to prevent them from being scratched by external objects.

[0025] Working principle: The end block 5 is moved by pressing the pressing block 6, so that the limiting column 7 leaves the through hole 8 of the first joint 1 and the second joint 2. The first joint 1 and the second joint 2 can be rotated to adjust the expansion angle. When the pressing block 6 is pressed, the telescopic rod 11 contracts and the spring 12 is compressed. The telescopic rod 11 is limited by the pin 13. When adjusting, the limiting column 7 is away from the through hole to avoid affecting the adjustment. After adjusting to a certain angle, the pin 13 is released, and the spring 12 rebounds to drive the telescopic rod 11 to extend. The pressing block 6 is away from the second joint 2, driving the end The block 5 moves so that the limit column 7 passes through the corresponding through hole 8 after adjustment, and the first joint 1 and the second joint 2 are re-locked. The pin 13 passes through the limit hole at the end of the outer rod away from the second joint 2 and the limit hole on the inner rod to limit the position of the outer rod and the inner rod, ensuring that the limit column 7 is located in the through hole 8 and remains in a locked state, ensuring safe use. The locking structure of the ladder joint is simple, easy to install and replace, and easy to adjust. The setting of the fixed block 3 makes the hinged structure of the first joint 1 and the second joint 2 more stable and safer to use.
