[0026] The utility model will be further described in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments, so as to more clearly understand the technical thought of the utility model claimed by the utility model. Only this declaration, the up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside and other orientation words appearing in the text or about to appear in the utility model are based on the drawings of the utility model, and it is not a specific limitation on the utility model.
[0027] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, the utility model embodiment of a telescopic diagonal brace, including outer sleeve 100 and the inner sleeve 200 that stretches into outer sleeve 100 and with outer sleeve 100 sliding connection;The inner sleeve 200 stretches out outer sleeve 100 lower end. Actually, the outer surface of inner sleeve 200 and the inner surface of outer sleeve 100 match each other, so that the relative sliding of inner sleeve 200 in outer sleeve 100 is carried out, and the combined length of inner sleeve 200 and outer sleeve 100 can be adjusted, so as to realize telescopic function.
[0028] The middle part of the inner sleeve 200 is hinged with the first connecting support 210. Actually, the first connecting support 210 is used for installing and connecting the inner sleeve 200 to the leg of the ladder, so that the inner sleeve 200 can swing relative to the leg of the ladder.
[0029] The inner sleeve 200 is provided with a rack 220 outside, and the outer sleeve 100 is provided with spring teeth 110 at the lower end for clamping the main rack 220. In fact, the spring teeth 110 device is composed of teeth articulated with the outer sleeve 100 and a spring for driving the teeth to press against the rack 220. In the initial state, the force of the spring makes the teeth tightly press against the rack 220, and the teeth can be precisely engaged with the rack 220. This engagement state can effectively lock the rack 220, preventing the inner sleeve 200 from sliding relative to the outer sleeve 100, thereby fixing the combined length of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100. When it is necessary to adjust the combined length of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100, the teeth can be disengaged from the rack 220 by operating the teeth or the spring. Once the teeth are separated from the rack 220, the inner sleeve 200 can freely slide relative to the outer sleeve 100, so that the combined length of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100 can be adjusted as needed. This adjustment mechanism allows the user to accurately set the combined length of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100 according to the actual situation, such as the length of the support required by the ladder leg, to provide appropriate support.
[0030] The upper end of the outer sleeve 100 is articulated with a second connecting bracket 120. In fact, the role of the second connecting bracket 120 is to fix the outer sleeve 100 to the leg of the ladder, so as to allow the inner sleeve 200 to swing relative to the leg of the ladder. In this structure, the combination of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100, together with the first connecting bracket 210 and the second connecting bracket 120, constitutes a four-bar linkage mechanism connected to the leg of the ladder.
[0031] When the length of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100 is adjusted, the four-bar linkage mechanism changes the angle of the combination of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100 relative to the leg of the ladder accordingly. In this way, the combined angle of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100 can be adjusted to adapt to different support requirements, ensuring the stability of the ladder. In addition, when the opening angle of the ladder changes, the length of the combination of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100 can be adjusted so that the lower end of the inner sleeve 200 can be in contact with the ground, thereby providing the necessary support for the ladder.
[0032] The telescopic diagonal brace of the utility model can adjust the length and angle of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100 according to different ground conditions and use scenarios, so as to achieve the best support effect. Such an adjustment mechanism not only enhances the stability of the ladder, but also improves its applicability and safety in different environments.
[0033] Specifically, the inner sleeve 200 is preferably designed in an arc shape with a convex arc, and the inner side of the outer sleeve 100 is matched with the outer side of the inner sleeve 200. Both the inner side and the outer side of the inner sleeve 200 are designed in an arc shape with a convex arc, which makes the inner sleeve 200 slide inside the outer sleeve 100 without rotating relative to the outer sleeve 100. Such a design ensures the stability of the inner sleeve 200 in the supporting state, because the arc shape with a convex arc provides a larger contact area, thereby enhancing the interaction force between the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100. In addition, the arc shape with a convex arc means that more materials are used for the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100, which not only increases the strength of the structure, but also improves the stability of the support. The larger contact area helps to disperse the load and reduce local stress concentration, thereby providing more reliable support when subjected to external forces. Therefore, such a design not only ensures the stability of the inner sleeve 200, but also improves the carrying capacity of the entire structure.
[0034] More specifically, the rack 220 is preferably arranged at the chord side of the inner sleeve 200, which is easier to install than on a circular arc surface. Further, as shown in Figure 3 The chord side of the inner sleeve 200 is preferably provided with a concave cavity 230 for installing the rack 220, and the rack 220 is installed in the cavity 230. Such an arrangement has two main effects. First, it prevents the rack 220 from extending out of the cavity 230, thereby avoiding contact with the outer side of the outer sleeve 100 and reducing possible wear and damage. Second, placing the rack 220 in the cavity 230 also serves to position the rack 220, ensuring that it remains in the correct position during operation, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of the entire structure.
[0035] It should be noted that the spring tooth 110 preferably comprises a sleeve 111 fixed at the lower end of the outer sleeve 100 and used for the inner sleeve 200 to pass through, a push block 112 which is hinged with the sleeve 111 at the middle part and matched with the rack 220 at the lower part, and a driving spring 113 installed on the sleeve 111 and used for driving the lower part of the push block 112 to press against the rack 220. In fact, the sleeve 111 not only supports the push block 112, but also bears the driving spring 113, ensuring that the push block 112 and the driving spring 113 can be stably installed at the lower end of the outer sleeve 100. The driving spring 113 can be in the form of a torsion spring, which is sleeved at the hinge between the push block 112 and the sleeve 111, and abuts against both the sleeve 111 and the push block 112. Such a design enables the lower part of the push block 112 to apply pressure to the rack 220 and precisely match with the rack 220, thereby locking the relative position of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100. In this way, the locking function of the spring tooth 110 is realized, i.e. when it is necessary to fix the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100, it can be ensured that their positions will not relatively slide or move, enhancing the stability of the entire structure and the reliability of the operation. Preferably, the upper side of the push block 112 is provided with anti-skid patterns to prevent the operator from slipping when pressing the push block 112 with his hand.
[0036] Further, the sleeve 111 is preferably provided with two connection plates 114 which are spaced apart and both hinged with the middle part of the push block 112, the connection plates 114 extending outwardly perpendicular to the plane where the chord edge of the inner sleeve 200 is located, so that the rotation axis of the hinged part between the middle part of the push block 112 and the connection plate 114 is parallel to the plane where the chord edge of the inner sleeve 200 is located, so that the force transmitted by the driving spring 113 through the lower part of the push block 112 can better act on the rack 220, ensuring the self-locking effect.
[0037] Still further, the sleeve 111 is preferably provided with a gap 115 for the lower part of the push block 112 to pass through at the lower part between the two connection plates 114, preventing the lower part of the push block 112 from interfering with the sleeve 111.
[0038] Specifically, the first connecting support 210 preferably comprises a first mounting base 211, two spaced apart swing rods 212 with upper ends hingedly connected to the outer side of the middle part of the inner sleeve 200, and a first rotating shaft 213 hingedly connecting the lower ends of the two swing rods 212 and the first mounting base 211. The rotation axis of the hingedly connected part of the upper end of the swing rod 212 and the rotation axis of the first rotating shaft 213 are both parallel to the plane of the chord side of the inner sleeve 200, and the first mounting base 211 is arranged on the side away from the plane of the chord side of the inner sleeve 200. In fact, the middle part of the inner sleeve 200 is designed below the second connecting support, and such a layout makes the inner sleeve 200 maintain a larger distance from the ladder leg during work. In order to adapt to the change of the distance, the swing rod 212 adjusts and adapts the distance between the middle part of the inner sleeve 200 and the ladder leg, so as to ensure that the inner sleeve 200 can be stable in different working states.
[0039] Specifically, the second connecting support 120 preferably comprises a second mounting base 121 and a second rotating shaft 122 hingedly connecting the upper end of the outer sleeve 100 and the second mounting base 121. The rotation axis of the second rotating shaft 122 is parallel to the plane of the chord side of the inner sleeve 200, and the second mounting base 121 is arranged on the side away from the plane of the chord side of the inner sleeve 200. In fact, the upper end of the outer sleeve 100 is hingedly connected to the ladder leg through the second mounting base 121 and the second rotating shaft 122, which cooperates with the first connecting support 210 to ensure that the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100 can achieve a suitable swing angle and combined length during work. Such a structure design allows the ladder to adjust the relative position of the inner sleeve 200 and the outer sleeve 100 according to the needs under different use conditions, so as to adapt to different working angles and length requirements.
[0040] In addition, the lower end of the inner sleeve 200 is preferably provided with a foot 240. In fact, the foot 240 can be directly installed on the lower end of the inner sleeve 200 in a sleeved manner. The purpose of such a design is that when the inner sleeve 200 contacts the ground, the foot 240 contacts the ground first, so as to replace the inner sleeve 200 to directly bear the friction and pressure of the ground. Such an installation method effectively protects the lower end part of the inner sleeve 200, avoids wear caused by direct contact with the ground, and prolongs the service life of the inner sleeve 200.
[0041] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the patent range of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process conversion obtained by using the content of the specification and drawings, or direct or indirect application in other related technical fields, is also included in the patent protection range of the present application.
