Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to lightning protection equipment support devices, and more particularly to an earring grip-type lightning protection equipment support device. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, when installing lightning protection equipment on installation carriers such as lightning protection towers, transmission towers, and transmission poles, smooth metal poles are used as the connection and support devices between the installation carrier and the lightning protection equipment. The bottom end of the support device is connected to the installation carrier through clamps, flanges, etc., and the top end of the support device is installed with the lightning protection equipment through sleeves, flanges, etc. However, using smooth metal poles as support devices poses several safety risks. First, smooth poles are prone to slippage during high-altitude hoisting, resulting in a fall from a height. Second, due to the long length, heavy weight, and large diameter of the support device, gripping, lifting, and securing it during high-altitude installation are difficult, easily causing slippage and a fall from a height. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides an earring gripping lightning protection equipment support device, in which an earring is installed on the support rod and reinforced by ribs, which facilitates the hoisting and installation of the support rod.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:
[0005] The earring-grip lightning protection equipment support device includes a support rod, earrings, and ribs. Multiple earrings are arranged along the length of the support rod, and each earring is fixedly installed on the support rod with its axis perpendicular to the axis of the support rod. Multiple ribs are provided, each corresponding to one of the earrings. One end of each rib is connected to the support rod, and the other end is connected to the earring to increase the connection strength between the earring and the support rod.
[0006] Preferably, two adjacent earrings are spaced equally apart and alternately arranged on both sides of the support rod.
[0007] Preferably, the distance between two adjacent earrings is not less than 450mm.
[0008] Preferably, the ribs are inclined to connect the support rod and the earring.
[0009] Preferably, one end of the rib is connected to the support rod at a 45° angle, and the other end of the rib is tangentially connected to the outer ring wall of the earring.
[0010] Preferably, the support rod is a tubular structure with an outer diameter of not less than 50 mm and a wall thickness of not less than 2 mm.
[0011] Preferably, the distance between the bottom end of the support rod and the lowest earring is not less than 500mm.
[0012] Preferably, the outer diameter of the earring is in the range of 150–300 mm.
[0013] Preferably, the earrings are made of steel bars, and the thickness of the earrings ranges from 12 to 15 mm.
[0014] Preferably, the length of the rib is a, the outer diameter of the earring is b, and a = b / 2tan22.5°.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model compared with the prior art are:
[0016] This invention features an earring mounted on the support rod, which not only provides the connection and support functions of existing support devices but also facilitates high-altitude hoisting, gripping, lifting, and securing. This eliminates the risk of falls from heights caused by slippage or difficulties in gripping, lifting, and securing, thus reducing the safety risks associated with installing lightning protection equipment on the mounting platform. Furthermore, the support rod and earring are connected by ribs, increasing the connection strength between the earring and the support rod. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Figure labeling: 1-Earring; 2-Rib; 3-Support rod. Detailed Implementation
[0022] The invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0023] See Figures 1 to 3This application provides an earring-grip type lightning protection device support device, including a support rod 3, earrings 1, and ribs 2. Multiple earrings 1 are provided, evenly arranged along the length of the support rod 3, with adjacent earrings 1 spaced equidistantly and alternately arranged on both sides of the support rod 3. Each earring 1 is welded to the support rod 3, and the axis of the earring 1 is perpendicular to the axis of the support rod 3. Multiple ribs 2 are provided, corresponding one-to-one with the earrings 1. One end of each rib 2 is welded to the support rod 3, and the other end is welded to the earring 1 to increase the strength of the connection between the earring 1 and the support rod 3. After all the earrings 1 and ribs 2 are welded to the support rod 3, all sharp burrs are ground off, and all weld points are covered with anti-rust paint. For example... Figure 3 As shown, earring 1, rib 2 and support rod 3 are all in the same plane.
[0024] During equipment hoisting, the hoisting rope is threaded through any of the lugs 1 on the support rod 3 and secured. The support rod 3 is then hoisted to the target position. Using rope connections and hoisting methods to lift the support rod 3 ensures that it will not slip during hoisting, preventing injury to the hoisting personnel. When the support rod 3 is hoisted to the top of the installation carrier and installation work is underway, the installation personnel can grip and lift the support rod 3 using the lugs 1. This facilitates a stable grip and lifting effort, unaffected by the rod's diameter or lack of a point of leverage. When the support rod 3 is finally in place and secured to the installation carrier, the ropes and lugs 1 can be used to bind and secure it to the carrier. This eliminates the need for personnel to continuously grip the support rod 3 during the securing process, freeing their hands and allowing for quick and stable securing of the support rod 3 to the installation carrier, greatly improving operational convenience. After the support rod 3 is installed, the earring 1 does not need to be removed and can be used for climbing, gripping and hoisting during future equipment maintenance.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the distance between two adjacent earrings 1 is not less than 450mm, the distance between the bottom end of the support rod 3 and the bottommost earring 1 is not less than 500mm, and the distance between the top end of the support rod 3 and the topmost earring 1 is not less than 500mm. This design avoids the earrings 1 being installed too close together, which would increase the weight of the support rod 3. At the same time, the bottom end and the top end of the support rod 3 are connected to the installation carrier and lightning protection equipment through clamps, flanges, or sleeves. The bottom end connecting parts and the top end connecting parts of the support rod 3 are spaced apart from the earrings 1 to facilitate the installation of the support rod 3 and to prevent the installation position of the earrings 1 from affecting the construction workers during the installation of the support rod 3.
[0026] like Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, the rib 2 is inclined to connect the support rod 3 and the earring 1. Specifically, one end of the rib 2 is connected to the support rod 3 at a 45° angle, and the other end of the rib 2 is tangentially connected to the outer ring wall of the earring 1. This design can increase the connection strength between the support rod 3 and the earring 1.
[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, the support rod 3 in this embodiment is a tubular structure with an outer diameter of not less than 50mm and a wall thickness of not less than 2mm. This design ensures the support strength of the support rod 3 while preventing it from becoming too heavy and adding excessive complexity to the installation carrier. The support rod 3 can also be designed according to the specific application scenario and the weight of the lightning protection equipment it supports.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the outer diameter of earring 1 ranges from 150 to 300 mm, and the thickness of earring 1 ranges from 12 to 15 mm. This size design facilitates gripping by construction workers and rope binding. Earring 1 and rib 2 are made of steel bars, and the use of steel bars ensures the strength of earring 1 and rib 2. Let the length of rib 2 be a, and the outer diameter of earring 1 be b, where a = b / 2tan22.5°. The preferred length of rib 2 is 180-360 mm.
[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions created by the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions created by the present invention without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions created by the present invention.
