It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand this utility model, but does not constitute a limitation on this utility model.
[0018] Example 1:
[0019] like Figures 1-4As shown, this embodiment provides a novel tilting roller shutter door mechanism for fire trucks, including a fixed frame 1, a roller shutter door frame 2, and a roller shutter door roller 3. The upper end of the roller shutter door frame 2 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1 via a hinge 4. The fixed frame 1 is provided with a gas spring 5 for driving the roller shutter door frame 2 to tilt along the hinge 4. A tilting door lock mechanism 6 is provided between the roller shutter door frame 2 and the fixed frame 1 for fixing the two in a locked state. The roller shutter door roller 3 is installed on the roller shutter door frame 2. A roller shutter door panel 7 is wound on the roller shutter door roller 3 via a torsion spring. The roller shutter door frame 2 is provided with a guide rail 8. The roller shutter door panel 7 moves along the guide rail 8. A roller shutter door lock mechanism 9 is provided between the roller shutter door frame 2 and the roller shutter door panel 7 for locking the roller shutter door panel 7 in a fully pulled-out state.
[0020] This technical solution transforms the roller shutter door into a rear-hinged door when not in use, integrating the rear-hinged door with the roller shutter door to save installation space and make efficient use of space. When space permits, the rear-hinged door can be opened directly, allowing firefighters to conduct rescue operations safely and reliably under its protection. In confined spaces, the roller shutter door can be opened for rescue operations without needing to operate the rear-hinged door. This technical solution allows for the selection of different rear door opening methods for specific scenarios, and its operation is simple and convenient.
[0021] Example 2:
[0022] This embodiment is an optimization based on the above embodiment 1.
[0023] To better lock the rear-hinged door, the lifting door lock mechanism 6 is located between the lower ends of the roller shutter frame 2 and the fixed frame 1.
[0024] Example 3:
[0025] This embodiment is an optimization based on the above embodiment 1.
[0026] To better lock the roller shutter door, the roller shutter door locking mechanism 9 is located between the lower end of the roller shutter door panel 7 and the roller shutter door frame 2.
[0027] Example 4:
[0028] This embodiment is an optimization based on the above embodiment 1.
[0029] To improve the sealing effect between the rear-hinged door and the fixed frame 1, a sealing structure 10 is provided between the fixed frame 1 and the roller shutter door frame 2.
[0030] Example 5:
[0031] This embodiment is an optimization based on the above embodiment 1.
[0032] For ease of operation, a handle is provided at the bottom of the roller shutter door panel 7.
[0033] The fixed frame 1 secures the entire flip-up roller shutter door to the rear of the carriage. The upper end of the roller shutter door frame 2 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1 via a hinge 4. That is, one end of the hinge 4 is fixed to the fixed frame 1, and the other end is fixed to the roller shutter door frame 2. The roller shutter door frame 2 rotates around the fixed frame 1 via the hinge 4. The guide rail 8 on the roller shutter door frame is the slide rail for the roller shutter door panel 7. A roller shutter door lock mechanism 9 is provided between the roller shutter door frame 2 and the roller shutter door panel 7 to lock the roller shutter door panel 7 in the fully extended state. A sealing structure 10 is installed on the side of the roller shutter door frame 2 near the fixed frame 1 to seal against the fixed frame 1. The roller shutter door panel 7 can rotate around the roller shutter door roller 3.
[0034] In specific operation: When the roller shutter is not in use, it forms a rear-hinged door. Unlock the lifting door lock mechanism 6, and the entire rear-hinged door will flip upward around the hinge 4 under the action of the gas spring 5 and the operator's upward pushing force, opening the roller shutter. Firefighters can then perform rescue operations from below the roller shutter. After the operation is completed, the operator manually flips the rear-hinged door to the designated position until the lifting door lock mechanism 6 locks the rear-hinged door to the fixed frame 1. When the space around the vehicle is very small and there is not enough space to open the rear-hinged door, the roller shutter can be unlocked directly without opening the roller shutter. The roller shutter roller 3 will rotate around the roller axis under the action of the internal torsion spring, rolling up the roller shutter panel 7. The roller shutter panel 7 slides upward along the guide rail 8, opening the roller shutter, allowing firefighters to perform rescue operations. After the operation is completed, the operator manually pulls the handle on the roller shutter panel 7 and slides it downward. When it reaches the limit position, the roller shutter locks directly.
[0035] In summary, this technical solution allows for rescue operations in confined spaces by using a roller shutter door to open the rear door. Where space permits, the rear lift-up door can be opened directly, allowing firefighters to conduct rescue operations under its protection. The operation is simple and convenient, and integrating the rear lift-up door with the roller shutter door saves installation space.
[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
