Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of safety protection technology for suspended platforms, and in particular to the safety protection structure for manned suspended platforms in low-altitude cableways. Background Technology
[0002] Low-altitude cableways with passenger gondolas play a vital role in tourist attractions and mountain transportation. They can traverse complex terrain, providing tourists with unique sightseeing experiences or facilitating the efficient transport of people and goods within specific areas. Their convenience and practicality make them an indispensable transportation facility in many places.
[0003] Currently, existing low-altitude cableway gondolas on the market primarily focus on ensuring basic passenger safety during transportation. They typically employ robust frame structures and are equipped with standard protective components such as guardrails and safety doors. However, when the gondola is lowered to the ground, the lack of specialized shock-absorbing design results in significant impact forces upon descent or contact with the ground. These impact forces directly affect the overall structure of the gondola, causing damage such as frame deformation and weld cracking. They also accelerate the wear and tear on connecting components, reducing their mechanical properties. Over time, this accumulated damage significantly reduces the structural strength and stability of the gondola, shortening its lifespan, increasing maintenance and replacement costs, and potentially posing safety hazards during subsequent use, threatening passenger safety. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above deficiencies, this utility model provides a safety protection structure for a manned gondola in low-altitude cableways, aiming to improve the problem in the prior art where the lack of a dedicated shock absorption design results in a large impact force at the moment the gondola descends or contacts the ground.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a safety protection structure for a manned gondola of a low-altitude cableway, comprising a frame, a second spring fixedly connected to the lower surface of the frame, a mounting plate fixedly connected to the end of the second spring away from the frame, an adaptation component provided on the lower surface of the mounting plate, the adaptation component allowing the mounting plate to accept pressure from different directions, a second guide plate fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate, a slider slidably connected inside the second guide plate, a first connecting rod fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slider, a first spring fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slider, the end of the first spring away from the slider fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second guide plate, a rotating plate rotatably connected to the outer wall of the first connecting rod, a second connecting rod rotatably connected to the middle of the rotating plate, a first guide plate slidably connected to the outer wall of the slider, and the upper surface of the first guide plate fixedly connected to the lower surface of the frame.
[0006] Furthermore, the adaptation component includes an arc-shaped plate, the upper surface of which is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the mounting plate, and a foot is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the arc-shaped plate.
[0007] Furthermore, a connecting block is fixedly connected inside the frame, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting block, a guide rod is fixedly connected above the connecting plate, a clamping block is slidably connected to the outer wall of the guide rod, a connecting belt is slidably connected at the clamping point of the two clamping blocks, and a handrail is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting belt.
[0008] Furthermore, the clamping block has a screw threaded inside, and a nut threaded on the outer wall of the screw.
[0009] Furthermore, a fence is fixedly connected inside the frame, and the outer wall of the connecting block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fence.
[0010] Furthermore, a fixing block one is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame, a fixing rod is fixedly connected inside the fixing block one, a fixing block two is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixing rod, and a protective door is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing block two.
[0011] Furthermore, a locking ring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the protective door.
[0012] Furthermore, decorative elements are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame.
[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. In this utility model, when the suspended platform lands, spring two first plays its role, buffering part of the impact force. At the same time, the slider slides within guide plate two, causing spring one to extend and retract, further dispersing the impact force. Through the linkage of the rotating plate and the connecting rod, the impact force is converted into forces in other directions for dispersion, thereby effectively reducing the impact on the suspended platform. The arc-shaped plate design allows the feet on its lower surface to better adapt to uneven ground. Regardless of the slope angle and undulation of the ground, the mounting plate can be stably stressed, thus enabling the entire shock absorption device to accept impact forces from different directions, maintaining the stability of the overall structure of the suspended platform, greatly extending the service life of the suspended platform, and reducing the risk of damage caused by impact.
[0015] 2. In this utility model, the handrails installed inside the frame provide passengers with a reliable gripping position. During the operation of the gondola, especially when encountering swaying or bumps, passengers can hold the handrails tightly to maintain their balance and avoid falling and getting injured due to swaying, thus enhancing passengers' sense of security. At the same time, this also allows passengers to relax more during the ride, reducing discomfort caused by tension, effectively improving passenger comfort and enhancing the passenger riding experience.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3This utility model provides an embodiment of a safety protection structure for a passenger-carrying gondola on a low-altitude cableway, comprising a frame 1, a second spring 25 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the frame 1, a mounting plate 13 fixedly connected to the end of the second spring 25 away from the frame 1, an adaptation component provided on the lower surface of the mounting plate 13, the adaptation component allowing the mounting plate 13 to accept pressure from different directions, a guide plate 25 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 13, a slider 26 slidably connected inside the guide plate 25, a connecting rod 22 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slider 26, a spring 21 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slider 26, the end of the spring 21 away from the slider 26 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the guide plate 25, and the connecting rod 22... A rotating plate 23 is rotatably connected to the wall, and a connecting rod 24 is rotatably connected inside the rotating plate 23. A guide plate 14 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the slider 26, and the upper surface of the guide plate 14 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the frame 1. The adapting component includes an arc plate 11, the upper surface of which is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the mounting plate 13, and a foot 12 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the arc plate 11. A fixing block 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame 1, and a fixing rod 8 is fixedly connected inside the fixing block 7. A fixing block 9 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixing rod 8, and a protective door 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing block 9. A locking ring 10 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the protective door 6. A decorative piece 27 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame 1.
[0023] Specifically, frame 1 serves as the foundational support for the entire structure, providing a base for the installation of other components. A second spring 25 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of frame 1, and a mounting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the end of spring 25 furthest from frame 1. When the suspended platform lands, spring 25 acts as a buffer in the vertical direction, absorbing the impact force from the ground and effectively reducing the direct impact of the impact force on frame 1 and the entire suspended platform structure, protecting the suspended platform structure from damage. An adaptation component is provided on the lower surface of mounting plate 13, including an arc-shaped plate 11. The upper surface of arc-shaped plate 11 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of mounting plate 13, and a foot 12 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of arc-shaped plate 11. The design of arc-shaped plate 11 and foot 12 allows mounting plate 13 to withstand pressure from different directions. When the ground is uneven or tilted, the curved plate 11 can better fit with the ground through the foot 12, ensuring that the mounting plate 13 is evenly stressed. This ensures that the entire shock absorption system can work effectively under different terrain conditions and maintain the stability of the suspended platform. A guide plate 25 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 13. A slider 26 is slidably connected inside the guide plate 25. A connecting rod 22 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slider 26. A spring 21 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slider 26. The end of the spring 21 away from the slider 26 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the guide plate 25. When subjected to impact, the slider 26 slides inside the guide plate 25, causing the spring 21 to extend and retract. The spring 21 further disperses and absorbs the impact force, playing a secondary buffering role. At the same time, through its interaction with the spring... The coordinated operation of spring 25 enhances the shock absorption effect. A rotating plate 23 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of connecting rod 1 22, and a connecting rod 24 is rotatably connected to the inner center of rotating plate 23. A guide plate 14 is slidably connected to the outer wall of slider 26, and the upper surface of guide plate 14 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of frame 1. When impact force acts on mounting plate 13, the linkage between slider 26, connecting rod 1 22, rotating plate 23, and connecting rod 24 can convert the impact force into forces in different directions for dispersion, avoiding excessive local stress and further improving the impact resistance of the entire structure, ensuring the safety of the suspended platform under complex stress conditions. A fixing block 7 is fixedly connected inside frame 1, and a fixing rod 8 is fixedly connected inside fixing block 7. The outer wall of fixing rod 8 rotates... The basket is connected by a fixed block 2 (9), and a protective door 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed block 2 (9). The protective door 6, through the connection structure of the fixed block 1 (7), the fixed rod 8, and the fixed block 2 (9), can rotate flexibly, facilitating passenger entry and exit. During basket operation, the protective door 6, when closed, effectively prevents passengers from accidentally falling, ensuring their safety. A locking ring 10 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the protective door 6, which can be used to install locks, further ensuring the protective door 6 remains closed during operation and preventing accidental opening due to shaking or other reasons, providing reliable protection for passengers. A decorative element 27 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame 1. The decorative element 27 not only beautifies the interior environment of the basket, making the passenger experience more comfortable and pleasant, but also enhances their overall appearance.It can also protect the inner wall of frame 1 to some extent, preventing it from being worn or corroded due to long-term use, thus extending the service life of frame 1, and at the same time improving the overall appearance of the suspended platform.
[0024] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A connecting block 20 is fixedly connected inside the frame 1. A connecting plate 2 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting block 20. A guide rod 3 is fixedly connected above the connecting plate 2. A clamping block 4 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the guide rod 3. A connecting strap 17 is slidably connected at the clamping point of the two clamping blocks 4. A handrail 16 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting strap 17. A screw 5 is threaded inside the clamping block 4. A nut 18 is threaded on the outer wall of the screw 5. A fence 19 is fixedly connected inside the frame 1. The outer wall of the connecting block 20 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fence 19.
[0025] Specifically, a connecting block 20 is fixedly connected inside the frame 1. The connecting block 20 serves to connect and fix other components, providing a stable installation foundation for the entire handrail 16 structure. A connecting plate 2 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting block 20. The connecting plate 2 establishes a stable connecting bridge between the connecting block 20 and the guide rod 3, ensuring that the guide rod 3 can be firmly installed in the appropriate position within the frame 1, guaranteeing the stability and reliability of the subsequent structure. A guide rod 3 is fixedly connected above the connecting plate 2. The guide rod 3 provides a precise guide path for the sliding of the clamping block 4, allowing the clamping block 4 to slide smoothly along the guide rod 3, thus facilitating the adjustment of the position of the clamping block 4 to adapt to the connecting strip 17 of different sizes or installation requirements. A clamping block 4 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the guide rod 3. The clamping block 4 can move flexibly on the guide rod 3. This sliding connection method allows the clamping block 4 to adjust the spacing according to the actual situation, achieving a stable clamping of the connecting strip 17. A connecting strip 17 is slidably connected at the clamping point of the two clamping blocks 4. The connecting strip 17 serves as a support and connecting component of the handrail 16, and is connected by the clamping blocks. The clamping action of the 4 allows it to be stably fixed inside the frame 1, and its sliding connection allows the position of the connecting belt 17 to be adjusted within a certain range to meet the gripping habits and riding needs of different passengers. It also facilitates installation and disassembly. The inner wall of the connecting belt 17 is slidably connected to the handrail 16, which provides a gripping support point for passengers. When riding the basket, passengers can hold the handrail 16 tightly to enhance their stability and sense of security. The sliding connection between the handrail 16 and the connecting belt 17 allows the handrail 16 to rotate freely within the connecting belt 17. The position can be finely adjusted to adapt to different gripping angles of passengers, improving the comfort and convenience of passengers' gripping, and effectively reducing the risk of passengers falling due to swaying during the operation of the basket. The clamping block 4 has a screw 5 inside the threaded connection. The threaded connection between the screw 5 and the clamping block 4 allows the clamping degree of the clamping block 4 on the connecting belt 17 to be adjusted by rotating the screw 5. When it is necessary to tighten the connecting belt 17, tighten the screw 5, and the clamping block 4 will apply greater pressure to the connecting belt 17 to ensure that the connecting belt 17 will not loosen or slip, and to ensure the stability of the handrail 16.Conversely, when it is necessary to adjust or disassemble the connecting strap 17, the screw 5 can be loosened for easy operation. The screw 5 has a nut 18 threadedly connected to its outer wall. The nut 18 works in conjunction with the screw 5 to further enhance the clamping effect of the clamping block 4 on the connecting strap 17, preventing the screw 5 from loosening due to vibration or other reasons during use. This improves the reliability and safety of the entire connection structure, ensuring that the handrail 16 remains stable and reliable, providing continuous and effective support for passengers. A fence 19 is fixedly connected inside the frame 1. The fence 19 effectively prevents passengers from accidentally slipping off the side of the basket, providing an additional protective barrier and enhancing the overall safety of the basket. The connecting block 20 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fence 19. The connection between the connecting block 20 and the fence 19, while connecting the handrail 16, makes the entire structure more compact and integrated, improving the integrity and stability of the internal structure of the frame 1. This ensures that all components work together to guarantee passenger safety and riding experience.
[0026] Working Principle: When the suspended platform descends and contacts the ground, the impact force is first transmitted to the mounting plate 13. The arc-shaped plate 11 and the foot 12 below the mounting plate 13 adjust their force angles according to the ground conditions to ensure that the mounting plate 13 is evenly stressed, so that the impact force can be effectively transmitted to the entire shock absorption system. At this time, the second spring 25 is compressed, absorbing part of the vertical impact force and reducing the direct impact on the frame 1. Simultaneously, the impact force causes the slider 26 to slide within the guide plate 25. The slider 26 drives the first spring 21 to extend and retract, further dispersing and buffering the impact force. During the sliding process of the slider 26, the rotating plate 23 is driven to rotate through the connecting rod 22. The rotating plate 23, with the help of the linkage of the second connecting rod 24, converts the impact force into forces in different directions and transmits them to the frame 1, thereby dispersing the impact force throughout the entire structure and avoiding local stress. Excessive force can damage the gondola. During the gondola's operation, passengers can maintain their stability through the handrail 16. The handrail 16 is connected to the clamping block 4 via the connecting strap 17. The clamping block 4 can slide and adjust its position on the guide rod 3 to accommodate different passenger needs. The screw 5 and nut 18 ensure the clamping force of the clamping block 4 on the connecting strap 17, making the handrail 16 stable and reliable. The safety door 6 can be flexibly opened and closed through the rotating connection structure of the fixing block 1 7, the fixing rod 8, and the fixing block 2 9, facilitating passenger entry and exit. The locking ring 10 is used to install the lock, ensuring that the safety door 6 is closed during operation to prevent passengers from falling accidentally. The fence 19 provides side protection for passengers to prevent slipping. The decorative part 27 beautifies the environment while protecting the inner wall of the frame 1 and extending its service life. All components of the entire structure work together to provide passengers with a safe and comfortable riding experience.
