[0024] As Figure 1 , 2The locking mechanism 4 includes a clamp 41, a locking pin 42, a spring 43, a spring seat 44 and a push rod 45, as shown in FIGS. 4, 5 and 6. The clamp 41 includes a clamp body 411 and a support block 412 fixed to the clamp body 411. The clamp body 411 is sleeved on the ladder rod 3. The stepping rod 5 is a hollow square tube. The two ends of the stepping rod 5 are inserted and fixed outside the support block 412. The bottom of the support block 412 is provided with a mounting groove 4121. The locking pin 42 is slidably arranged in the mounting groove 4121. The front end of the locking pin 42 penetrates through the clamp body 411 and the ladder rod 3 and is adapted to the positioning hole 31 in the lower part of the adjacent upper ladder rod 3. The spring seat 44 is clamped at the rear end of the mounting groove 4121. The front end of the spring seat 44 is provided with a containing hole 4411 for containing the spring 43. The rear part of the locking pin 42 is inserted into the containing hole 4411 and abuts against the spring 43. The front part of the locking pin 42 is provided with a stop ring 421 abutting against the clamp body 411. The mounting groove 4121 is rotatably clamped with the push rod 45. One end of the push rod 45 is clamped on the locking pin 42. When the push rod 45 is pressed down, the push rod 45 can push the locking pin 42 to move towards the spring seat 44, so as to realize the unlocking between the adjacent two ladder rods 3. Under the action of gravity, the upper ladder rod 3 can slide into the adjacent lower ladder rod 3. The color indicating block 6 is also clamped on the locking pin 42. The stepping rod 5 is provided with a display hole 51 corresponding to the color indicating block 6. When the locking pin 42 moves, the color indicating block 6 can be driven to move. The color of the color indicating block 6 in the display hole 51 can be observed to determine whether the locking mechanism 4 is in the locked state or the unlocked state, so as to improve the safety of using the ladder.

[0025] As shown in FIGS. 4, 5 and 6, Figure 2 , 4 The inside top of the clamp body 411 is provided with a stepped ring 4111 with a neck. The top end of the ladder rod 3 abuts and clamps with the stepped ring 4111.

The inner wall of the clamp body 411 in the isolation groove 4112 is provided with an inwardly protruding buckle part 4113. Since the buckle part 4113 is only connected with the ladder rod 3 at the bottom, the buckle part 4113 has a certain elasticity. The upper part of the ladder rod 3 is provided with a clamping hole corresponding to the buckle part 4113 (not shown in the figure). When the clamp 41 is installed, the clamp body 411 is only needed to be sleeved on the top of the ladder rod 3 and the buckle part 4113 is clamped in the clamping hole of the ladder rod 3, so as to realize the quick installation of the clamp 41.

[0027] As shown in FIGS. 4, 5 and 6, Figure 2 , 4 The spring seat 44 is in the shape of a cross as a whole. The spring seat 44 includes a cylindrical seat body 441 and a clamping strip 442 vertically fixed in the middle of the seat body 441. The clamping strip 442 is clamped on the support block 412.

The push rod 45 is provided with a clamping shaft 451 perpendicular thereto, and the clamping shaft 451 is clamped on the supporting block 412.

[0031] Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the locking mechanism is in an unlocked state. The push rod 45 is pressed towards the supporting block 412, and the push rod 45 rotates clockwise around the clamping shaft 451. The one end of the push rod 45 inserted into the second clamping shaft 423 overcomes the elastic force of the spring 43, pushes the locking pin 42 to the right, and makes the front end of the locking pin 42 separate from the positioning hole 31 at the lower part of the adjacent upper ladder rod 3, thereby realizing the unlocking of the locking mechanism 4. The adjacent upper ladder rod 3 and the ladder rod 3 therebetween can slide relative to each other, and the ladder can be retracted under the weight of the upper ladder rod 3.

[0032] The upper part of the supporting block 412 close to the clamping hoop body 411 is provided with a supporting block 4123, and the bottom of the supporting block 412 and below the supporting block 4123 is provided with a separation block 7.

[0033] When the ladder is retracted, the supporting block 4123 between the adjacent two stepping rods 5 abuts against the separation block 7, thereby ensuring that the adjacent two stepping rods 5 maintain a certain distance when they are retracted, avoiding being clamped to the user's hand.

[0034] As shown in the figure, Figure 4As shown in the drawings, the bottom of the support block 412 of the embodiment is provided with an embedding groove, and the isolation block 7 is embedded in the embedding groove, and the isolation block 7 is made of flexible material.

[0035] As shown in the drawings, in order to improve the comfort of the ladder use and improve the friction of the stepping rod 5, the upper surface of the stepping rod 5 is arc-shaped along the width direction, and the upper surface of the stepping rod 5 is provided with a plurality of parallel anti-skid convex strips 52 along the length direction.
