[0032] Example:

[0033] like Figures 1 to 6 Shown is a universal safety barrier for aircraft cabin doors of this embodiment, which includes two barrier poles 1 and a warning barrier 2.

[0034] The fence pole 1 includes a rotating handle 14, two fixed tubes 11, two telescopic tubes 17, two mounting heads 12, a handle 10 and a ratchet locking mechanism. The handle 10 is made of aviation aluminum alloy through precision machining, and the mounting head 12 is made of engineering plastic. The rotating handle 14 is cylindrical and located in the middle, and the two fixed tubes 11 are located on both sides. Figure 5As shown, the two ends of the rotating handle 14 are respectively provided with connecting columns 7, the two ends of the connecting columns 7 are respectively inserted into the end portions of the two fixed tubes 11, and the rotating connection between the connecting columns 7 and the fixed tubes 11 is realized through bearings 24, so that the rotating handle 14 can rotate relative to the fixed tubes 11. The handle 10 is also located in the middle, and the two ends of the handle 10 are respectively fixedly connected with the two fixed tubes 11, but the handle 10 is not connected with the rotating handle 14. When in use, the two fixed tubes 11 can be fixed by holding the handle 10 with the hand, and at this time, the rotating handle 14 can be rotated. The handle 10 can also assist in storage and portability while ensuring use strength, and the carrying and installation of the safety barrier can be completed by one person, which greatly improves the maintenance work efficiency.

[0035] The two telescopic tubes 17 are respectively slidably inserted on the two fixed tubes 11, the outer ends of the two telescopic tubes 17 are respectively provided with threaded holes 20, the mounting head 12 is provided with a threaded column 21, and the mounting head 12 is fixedly installed on the threaded hole 20 through the threaded column 21, so as to fix the mounting head 12 on the telescopic tube 17. The mounting head 12 is used for abutting against the door frame of the cabin door to realize the fixation of the safety barrier. The mounting head 12 connected through threads can be conveniently replaced, and can be suitable for cabin doors of different types of installation positions while ensuring that the aircraft body is not damaged.

[0036] The surface of the rotating handle 14 of the embodiment is knurled and blue anodized, the surface of the fixed tube 11 is red anodized, and the surface of the telescopic tube 17 is blue anodized. The red is defined as a warning color on the aircraft, and the color difference between the three colors is obvious, so that the warning effect of the safety barrier is more obvious.

[0037] The transmission mechanism connecting the rotating handle 14 and the telescopic tube 17 is also arranged in the barrier rod 1, and when the rotating handle 14 is rotated, the two telescopic tubes 17 can be driven to simultaneously extend and retract through the transmission mechanism. Figure 5 As shown, the specific structure of the transmission mechanism is as follows: it comprises a screw rod 23 and two nuts 22, the screw rod 23 and the nut 25 are selected from aviation aluminum alloy and are formed through mechanical precision machining, the screw rod 23 passes through the middle portion of the rotating handle 14, and the rotating handle 14 is fixedly connected with the middle portion of the screw rod 23, so that when the rotating handle 14 is rotated, the screw rod 23 can be driven to rotate. The rotation directions of the threads at the two ends of the screw rod 23 are opposite, the rotation directions of the threads of the two nuts 22 are also opposite, the two nuts 22 are respectively fixed at the inner ends of the telescopic tubes 17, and the two ends of the screw rod 23 are respectively threadedly connected with the two nuts 222. When in use, the handle 10 is held with the hand, and then the rotating handle 14 is rotated to drive the screw rod 23 to rotate, so that the two telescopic tubes 17 can be driven to simultaneously extend and retract.

[0038] The ratchet locking mechanism is arranged at a position where one end of the rotating handle 14 is located, and is used to unidirectionally lock the rotating direction between the rotating handle 14 and the fixed tube 11, that is, when the ratchet locking mechanism is not operated, the rotating handle 14 can only rotate in one direction relative to the fixed tube 11, and the direction of rotation will make the two telescopic tubes 17 extend at the same time, and when it is needed to rotate the rotating handle in the reverse direction, it is needed to first operate the ratchet locking mechanism to make it unlocked. In this way, the risk that the safety screen is invalid due to the loosening of the screen rod caused by reverse rotation can be prevented.

[0039] As shown in Figure 6 The ratchet locking mechanism of the embodiment includes a mounting seat 16, a ratchet wheel 25, a pawl 15 and a torsion spring 28, the ratchet wheel 25 is fixedly sleeved on the connecting column 7, the ratchet wheel 25 and the connecting column 7 are fixedly connected through a key groove and a flat key, the mounting seat 16 is inlaid on the wall of the end portion of the fixed tube 11, the mounting seat 16 is provided with a mounting hole 26, the pawl 15 is rotatably installed in the mounting hole 26 through a pin shaft 27, one end of the pawl 15 which extends into the fixed tube 11 is a locking end 3, the locking end 3 is matched and clamped on the ratchet wheel 25, and the other end of the pawl 15 which extends out of the fixed tube 11 is a manual pressing end 30. When it is needed to unlock the ratchet locking mechanism, the manual pressing end 30 is pressed inward by hand to make the pawl 15 rotate, the locking end 3 of the pawl 15 will be turned outward and separated from the ratchet wheel 25, at this time, the ratchet wheel 25 can be freely rotated. The ratchet locking mechanism is made of stainless steel, which ensures that the surface is wear-resistant and the quality is reliable.

[0040] The torsion spring 28 is matched and installed in the mounting hole 26, and the specific installation structure is that a limiting step 29 is arranged on the side wall of the mounting hole 26, the torsion spring 28 is sleeved on the pin shaft 27, one end of the torsion spring 28 is pressed on the limiting step 29, and the other end is pressed on the inner side of the manual pressing end 30. The elastic force of the torsion spring 28 will act on the pawl 15, and when the pawl 15 is not pressed, the locking end 3 of the pawl 15 can be kept clamped on the ratchet wheel 25.

[0041] The warning net 2 comprises a plurality of longitudinal belts 8 and transverse belts 9 which are fixedly connected in sequence and cross each other, and the longitudinal belts 8 and the transverse belts 9 are red one-inch-wide flame-retardant nylon ribbons. A square cloth 5 is fixed in the middle of the warning net 2, and a warning slogan 6 is arranged on the square cloth 5. The two ends of each longitudinal belt 8 are connected with the net rods 1 through length adjusting structures, and the length of the warning net between the two net rods can be adjusted through the length adjusting structures. The length adjusting structure comprises a limiting piece 13 and a press buckle 4, the two ends of the limiting piece 13 are fixed on a fixed tube 11, a limiting hole 19 is formed between the limiting piece 13 and the surface of the fixed tube 11, the end of the longitudinal belt 8 passes through the limiting hole 19 and is connected with itself through the press buckle 4, and the length of the longitudinal belt 8 can be adjusted by adjusting the press buckle 4. The press buckle 4 is a one-way zinc alloy press buckle with a minimum safety tension of 250KG. Reflective strips are sewn on the front and back surfaces of the warning net 2, so that the safety and reliability of the warning net 2 can be better ensured.

[0042] The limiting screw 18 is arranged on the fixed tube 11 and corresponds to the position of the telescopic tube 17, and an axial limiting groove is arranged on the inner end of the limiting screw 18 and corresponds to the position of the telescopic tube 17, so that the rotation of the telescopic tube 17 is limited by the limiting screw 18, and the telescopic tube 17 can only slide out and retract, and cannot rotate.

[0043] When the safety net needs to be fixedly installed on the cabin door, the length of the warning net 2 between the two net rods 1 is adjusted according to the height of the cabin door, then the net rods 1 are fixed on the upper and lower ends of the cabin door, when the net rods 1 are fixed, the handle 10 is held by hand, then the rotating handle 14 is rotated to drive the screw rod 23 to rotate together, so that the two telescopic tubes 17 are simultaneously extended, the mounting heads 12 at the two ends are abutted against the door frame of the cabin door to realize fixation, at this time, the locking end 3 of the pawl 15 is clamped on the ratchet wheel 25, and the rotating handle 14 will not be reversely rotated relative to the fixed tube 11, so that the loosening of the net rods 1 is prevented, and the safety net is not disabled. When the safety net needs to be dismounted from the cabin door, the handle 10 is held by hand, and the manual pressing end 30 of the pawl 15 is pressed at the same time, so that the locking end 3 of the pawl 15 is separated from the ratchet wheel 25, at this time, the rotating handle 14 can be reversely rotated, so that the two telescopic tubes 17 are simultaneously retracted, and the safety net is dismounted.

[0044] The above embodiments of the utility model are not the limitation of the protection scope of the utility model, the implementation modes of the utility model are not limited to this, and other various forms of modification, replacement or change of the above structure of the utility model can be made according to the above content of the utility model and the ordinary technical knowledge and conventional means in the field, and the modification, replacement or change should be within the protection scope of the utility model.
