Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of auxiliary devices for road and bridge construction, specifically to a universal sliding joint guardrail for a folding ladder on a bridge erecting machine. Background Technology
[0002] Bridge erecting machines are heavy engineering machinery used in road and bridge construction. When using bridge erecting machines to erect viaducts, scaffolding ladders are often erected on the side of the currently erected bridge to facilitate quick access for operators. However, as construction continues, the precast bridge gradually extends forward, and the bridge erecting machine also moves forward accordingly. Because of the stability requirements at the bottom, the scaffolding ladders cannot move with the machine, so they must be re-erected at the new work site. This increases construction costs, and the repeated erection of ladders also leads to project delays. The applicant has designed a solution to address these problems, such as... Figure 1 The invention describes a folding ladder assembly that uses an electric hoist on the crossbeam between columns 2 and 3 of the bridge erecting machine to provide tension, thereby changing the height of the ladder located on the side of column 2. However, during testing, the applicant found that there was a lack of effective protective measures at the hinged joint of the two ladders. Also, since the working height of the bridge erecting machine relative to the ground often changes, the angle between the ladders also frequently changes. Therefore, it is necessary to design an adjustable hinged guardrail that can meet the needs of different working conditions. Utility Model Content

[0010] Preferably, locking clamps are further mounted on the guide sleeves; the locking clamps are used for locking the movable guardrail, and preventing the movable guardrail from moving in the guide sleeve.
[0011] The utility model has the advantages of:
[0012] The movable guardrail can meet the use requirements under different pier height conditions, and after the included angle between the ladders changes, the orientation of the movable guardrail is changed through the universal joint, and the effective working length of the movable guardrail between the handrail supports is changed through the guide sleeve; the utility model has the advantages of simple structure and convenient operation, and after the locking clamps are opened, the orientation and length of the movable guardrail can be automatically changed without manual adjustment, so that the use under different working conditions is effectively ensured.

[0017] The utility model will be further introduced in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments:
[0018] Embodiment:
[0019] Refer to Figure 1The embodiment provides a universal sliding hinge guardrail for a folding escalator on a bridge machine; it comprises a first ladder frame 1 and a second ladder frame 2; the bottom end of the first ladder frame 1 is hingedly connected with the top end of the second ladder frame 2; a guardrail 3 is arranged on the side of the first ladder frame 1 and the second ladder frame 2; a handrail support rod 4 is arranged on the top of the guardrail 3; a handrail cable 5 is arranged on the handrail support rod 4; a universal joint 6 is arranged on two handrail support rods 4 adjacent to each other on the bottom end of the first ladder frame 1 and the second ladder frame 2; a positioning clamp head 7 and a guide sleeve 8 are respectively arranged on the two universal joints 6; a movable guardrail 9 is arranged on the positioning clamp head 7; one end of the movable guardrail 9 is movably arranged through the guide sleeve 8.
[0020] The handrail support rod 4 comprises a vertical rod 4A perpendicular to the guardrail 3; a rib plate 4B or a reinforcing rod 4C is arranged between the vertical rod 4A and the guardrail 3.
