Compared with the prior art, installation and disassembly are convenient and quick, which is conducive to the repeated use of the guardrail.
[0028] Specifically, in a specific embodiment of this utility model, a first limiting hole 101 is provided on one side of the bottom of the guardrail main frame 1 where the leg tubes are installed, and the first limiting hole 101 is used to correspond to the position of the external hole structure 302; a second limiting hole 102 is provided on the other side of the bottom of the guardrail main frame 1 where the leg tubes are installed, and the second limiting hole 102 is used to correspond to the position of the internal positioning hole structure 306; the outer ball structure 303 passes through the first limiting hole 101 and the external hole structure 302 and is partially exposed; the inner ball structure 304 passes through the second limiting hole 102 and is partially embedded in the internal positioning hole structure 306.

[0030] Specifically, in a specific embodiment of this utility model, both the main frame 1 of the guardrail and the horizontal railing structure 2 are made of galvanized steel pipes.

[0037] More specifically, with the development of the national port machinery loading and unloading industry, the demand for cranes in ports, docks, shipyards, and large hydropower stations continues to grow. Similarly, the safety requirements for crane installation and use are also increasing daily. Previously, crane ladder guardrail systems used welded protective railings at each lifting lug and connecting hinge point for maintenance as a safety guarantee, but this also greatly increased the difficulty of designing avoidance and maintenance disassembly. This utility model utilizes a pluggable protective railing, which uses springs and ball bearings at the bottom of the railing to limit its position. When the railing needs to be removed, simply press the ball bearings at the bottom of the railing to reset it. This ensures the safety of workers during installation and maintenance while reducing the difficulty of design avoidance and maintenance disassembly. The purpose of this utility model is to provide a pluggable protective railing for cranes, ensuring the safety of workers during installation and maintenance while reducing the difficulty of design avoidance and maintenance disassembly. Compared with traditional welding technology, this pluggable protective railing offers certain guarantees in terms of use and safety. In terms of installation, the precision is low and the structure is relatively simple. For disassembly, the guardrail can be reset by pushing the ball bearings, and then pulled out. Regarding reusability, this spring-ball bearing structure is more advantageous than welding to the main structure, meeting the requirements for reusability. This structure does not use welding or bolts for installation and disassembly; instead, it uses a spring and ball bearing system, offering significant advantages in service life, installation / disassembly time, and reusability. The guardrail gate applied for consists of an outer galvanized steel pipe, an inner galvanized steel pipe, a kick plate, a spring, ball bearings, and a sleeve. It incorporates technical features such as the outer galvanized steel pipe, inner galvanized steel pipe, kick plate, spring, and ball bearings, forming a unified whole that works with the sleeve. During installation, the spring is compressed, locking the ball bearings into the sleeve. When the ball bearings reach the sleeve hole, the outer ball bearings pop out, while the inner ball bearings limit the movement, positioning the guardrail. For disassembly, the outer ball bearings on both sides must be pressed to reset them, and then the guardrail can be pulled out.
[0038] In summary, the technical solution involved in this utility model embodiment has the advantages of convenient, quick, and efficient installation and disassembly, and its service life is significantly extended, and its safety protection function is significantly enhanced. Compared with the prior art, it has prominent substantive features and significant technical effects.
