[0023] The limiting assembly 3 comprises a main frame 31, the inner wall of the main frame 31 is slidingly connected with a secondary frame 32, the side, away from the main frame 31, of the secondary frame 32 is fixedly connected with a connecting frame 33, the outer wall of the connecting frame 33 is symmetrically connected with a support plate 37, the outer wall of the main frame 31 on both sides is rotationally connected with a clamping tooth 35, the top of the clamping tooth 35 is fixedly connected with a resistance component 34, the support plates 37 symmetrically connected with the outer wall of the connecting frame 33 are used to support the suspended ladder, so as to ensure that the suspended ladder can stably bear the weight of the firefighters and rescue equipment during use, and can be supported on the ground through the support plates 37, so as to reduce the direct contact between the secondary frame 32 and the ground, and further avoid the secondary frame 32 from being directly hit on the ground, thereby causing damage to the secondary frame 32.

[0024] The top of the resistance component 34 is slidingly connected with the inner wall of the sliding frame 21, the top of the main frame 31 is symmetrically fixedly connected with a limiting block 36, and the bottom of the clamping tooth 35 is clamped with the inner wall of the sliding frame 21. In the normal state, the bottom of the clamping tooth 35 is in a disengaged state with the tooth plate on the inner wall of the sliding frame 21, and the clamping tooth 35 is lifted by the resistance component 34, so that the clamping tooth 35 is away from the tooth plate in the sliding frame 21, so that the main frame 31 can drive the clamping tooth 35 to slide in the sliding frame 21.

[0025] Working principle:

[0026] The side suspended ladder mainly comprises a fixing seat 1, an adjusting assembly 2 and a limiting assembly 3, and each part cooperates with each other, so that the side suspended ladder can be flexibly adjusted in position on the fire truck and the extension state of the suspended ladder itself according to the actual use requirement, so as to better adapt to different rescue scenes and facilitate the firefighters to perform the climbing rescue operation.

[0027] The adjusting assembly 2 plays a key role in adjusting the position in the whole structure of the side suspended ladder, and mainly comprises a sliding frame 21, a positioning column 23, a top spring 24 and a fixed block 25.

[0028] The sliding frame 21 serves as a main bearing structure, the bottom of the sliding frame 21 is connected with the positioning column 23 through the fixed block 25, the fixed block 25 serves to connect the sliding frame 21 and the positioning column 23 on one hand, and provides a space for the sliding of the positioning column 23 on the other hand, so that the positioning column 23 can slide in the inner wall of the fixed block 25, the outer wall of the positioning column 23 is connected with the top spring 24 through a fixed sheet, and the side, away from the positioning column 23, of the top spring 24 is fixed with the outer wall of the fixed block 25. In the initial state, the top spring 24 is in a certain extension state, and exerts a corresponding elastic force on the positioning column 23.

[0029] The outer wall of the positioning column 23 is also inserted with the inner wall of the fixed seat 1 through the positioning groove 22, and the positioning groove 22 is opened in the wall of the fixed seat 1. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the side-suspended ladder on the fire truck, the operator applies an external force to the sliding frame 21, and the sliding frame 21 drives the fixed block 25 and the positioning column 23 to move together. It should be noted that before sliding the sliding frame 21, the positioning columns 23 on both sides need to be slid away from the positioning groove 22, so as to release the restriction of the fixed seat 1. After the sliding of the position of the sliding frame 21 is completed, the tension on the positioning column 23 is only released. Because the top spring 24 is compressed accordingly with the sliding of the positioning column 23, the elastic potential energy of the top spring 24 is released, and the positioning column 23 is pushed to slide into the positioning groove 22 again, so as to re-lock the position of the sliding frame 21. The sliding frame 21 can slide along the inner wall of the fixed seat 1, thereby realizing the adjustment of the longitudinal position of the side-suspended ladder on the fire truck, so as to better align the target position of the rescue site, such as the window, balcony or other suitable rescue entrances of the building, to facilitate the subsequent firefighters to climb the ladder to carry out rescue work.

[0030] The limiting assembly 3 is mainly responsible for changing the position of the ladder on the adjusting assembly 2, thereby adjusting the extension state of the ladder itself. It is composed of a main frame 31, a secondary frame 32, a connecting frame 33, a clamping tooth 35, a resistance component 34, a limiting block 36, and a support plate 37.

[0031] The main frame 31 serves as the basic frame structure, and its inner wall is in sliding connection with the secondary frame 32. The secondary frame 32 can slide in and out of the main frame 31 to change the length of the entire limiting assembly 3, thereby adjusting the extension degree of the ladder. The side of the secondary frame 32 away from the main frame 31 is fixedly connected with the connecting frame 33. The support plates 37 symmetrically connected to the outer wall of the connecting frame 33 are used to support the ladder, ensuring that the ladder can stably bear the weight of firefighters and rescue equipment during use and can be supported on the ground through the support plates 37, thereby reducing the direct contact of the secondary frame 32 with the ground and avoiding direct impact of the secondary frame 32 on the ground, which may cause damage to the secondary frame 32.

[0032] The outer wall of the main frame 31 on both sides is rotatably connected to the clamping tooth 35 through a rotating shaft. The main frame 31 can rotate in angle around the rotating shaft. The top of the clamping tooth 35 is fixedly connected with the resistance component 34, and the top of the resistance component 34 is in sliding connection with the inner wall of the sliding frame 21. The outer wall of the clamping tooth 35 is also in sliding connection with the inner wall of the sliding frame 21. In the normal state, the bottom of the clamping tooth 35 is in disengaged state with the tooth plate on the inner wall of the sliding frame 21. The clamping tooth 35 is lifted by the resistance component 34, so that the clamping tooth 35 is away from the tooth plate in the sliding frame 21, and the main frame 31 can drive the clamping tooth 35 to slide in the sliding frame 21, so that the limiting assembly 3 can slide in the normal state, ensuring the adjustability of the ladder.

[0033] When it is necessary to adjust the extension position of the cantilever ladder, the operator holds the main frame 31 and slides it away from the sliding frame 21, so that the main frame 31 slides in the sliding frame 21, driving the sub-frame 32 and the connecting frame 33 and other components to move together, thereby adjusting the extension position of the cantilever ladder. After the sub-frame 32 in the main frame 31 slides out, the operator only needs to keep the position of the main frame 31. When the firefighters use the main frame 31 and the sub-frame 32 to climb, the weight of the firefighters is used to make the force of the clamping teeth 35 downward exceed the resistance of the resistance component 34, so that the clamping teeth 35 are clamped on the tooth plate, and the position of the clamping teeth 35 is limited by the tooth plate. The limiting block 36 is connected to the main frame 31 and the sub-frame 32. After the main frame 31 and the sub-frame 32 are retracted into the sliding frame 21, the limiting block 36 is clamped on the positioning block of the sliding frame 21, thereby limiting the position of the main frame 31 and the sub-frame 32.

[0034] In actual fire rescue scenarios, first, according to the actual situation of the rescue site, such as the height of the building, the position of the rescue entrance, etc., the operator operates the adjusting assembly 2, pushes the sliding frame 21 to slide in the fixed seat 1, adjusts the longitudinal position of the side cantilever ladder on the fire truck, and roughly aligns the cantilever ladder with the target rescue position.

[0035] Then, according to the appropriate length required by the firefighters to climb the cantilever ladder and the convenience of the specific rescue operation, etc., the operator operates the limiting assembly 3, slides the main frame 31 in the sliding frame 21, drives the sub-frame 32 to extend or retract, thereby changing the extension state of the cantilever ladder, adjusting the cantilever ladder to the appropriate length, and facilitating the firefighters to smoothly climb and approach the trapped personnel or the rescue target.

[0036] During the entire adjustment process, the adjusting assembly 2 relies on the positioning column 23, the top spring 24 and other components to realize stable position movement, and the limiting assembly 3 flexibly controls the extension position of the cantilever ladder through the cooperation of the clamping teeth 35 and the resistance component 34. The components work together to ensure that the side cantilever ladder can be stably adjusted in place, provide convenience for fire rescue work, and meet the climbing rescue needs in different scenarios.

[0037] Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary skilled in the art and related fields without creative labor should belong to the scope of protection of the present application. The structures, devices and operation methods not specifically described and explained in the present application, such as without special description and limitation, are implemented according to the conventional means in the art.
