[0033] The double-speed production line is a widely used production line equipment in the electronics and automotive industries. Its main function is to transport materials via chain drive, characterized by high efficiency, flexibility, and stability. The double-speed production line achieves rapid movement and automatic deceleration and accumulation through friction transmission between the chain and the tooling plate. The chain's operating speed is twice that of the tooling plate, supporting continuous production and high-efficiency operation. In addition, the double-speed production line also has an accumulation function, allowing the tooling plate to temporarily stop on the line to accommodate the different operation times of different processes. However, double-speed lines are typically long, resulting in longer travel times for personnel to communicate between production lines and for equipment maintenance and repair. Therefore, ladders are often used to facilitate communication between personnel on both sides of the double-speed line, allow personnel to quickly cross the line, and facilitate equipment maintenance and repair. However, the height of existing double-speed lines varies depending on the site elevation; therefore, some ladders may not be usable on double-speed lines at certain heights.

[0034] Based on this, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The ladder 1000 provided in the embodiments of this utility model can effectively improve the technical problems mentioned above. The ladder 1000 can adjust the height of the overlapping plate 200 according to the height of the speed-multiplying line 2000 to be suitable for speed-multiplying lines 2000 of various heights, thus improving versatility.

[0035] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the ladder 1000 set on the speed-multiplying line 2000 provided in an embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the ladder 1000 provided in an embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 3 This is an exploded view of the ladder 1000 provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the ladder 1000 provided in the embodiment of this utility model includes two ladder components 100 and an overlapping plate 200. In use, the two ladder components 100 are respectively positioned on both sides of the speed-multiplying line 2000. One end of the overlapping plate 200 is movably connected to one of the ladder components 100, and the other end is movably connected to the other ladder component 100. The overlapping plate 200 can move relative to the ladder components 100 along the Z-axis. By setting the overlapping plate 200, it facilitates production communication between personnel on both sides of the speed-multiplying line 2000, allows personnel to quickly cross the speed-multiplying line 2000, and also facilitates equipment maintenance and repair. The ability of the overlapping plate 200 to move relative to the ladder components 100 along the Z-axis allows the height of the overlapping plate 2000 to be adjusted according to the height of the speed-multiplying line 2000, making it suitable for speed-multiplying lines 2000 of various heights and improving versatility.

[0037] The aforementioned "one end of the overlapping plate 200 is movably connected to one of the step ladder components 100, and the other end of the overlapping plate 200 is movably connected to another step ladder component 100"—for details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 and combined Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the overlapping plate 200 provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The overlapping plate 200 in this embodiment includes an overlapping plate body 210 and a connecting plate 220, which are vertically connected. The connecting plate 220 has an adjustment hole 221 extending along the Z-axis. The ladder 1000 also includes a fastener 400, which passes through the adjustment hole 221 and the ladder assembly 100 to connect the ladder assembly 100 and the connecting plate 220. The fastener 400 can move within the adjustment hole 221. That is, a connecting plate 220 is provided at each end of the overlapping plate body 210, and the overlapping plate body 210 is movably connected to two ladder assemblies 100 respectively through the two connecting plates 220. By changing the position and height of the fastener 400 within the adjustment hole 221, the height of the overlapping plate 200 relative to the ladder assembly 100 can be changed.

[0038] In addition, to achieve a wider range of height adjustments for the overlap plate 200, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figures 1-3 and combined Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a staircase assembly 100 excluding the first handrail 120 and the second handrail 300 provided in an embodiment of the present invention.
