Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connectors for standardized protective netting, specifically a simple connection device for standardized protective netting. Background Technology

[0002] In the construction industry, standardized protective netting can serve as temporary fencing to isolate hazardous areas. In actual construction, the demand for standardized protective netting is high, and the installation process is complex. Therefore, improving the speed of netting connection is particularly important to quickly isolate hazardous areas.

[0003] Currently, there are two main connection methods for standardized protective netting: the standard connection method and the simplified connection method.

[0004] The standard, modular protective mesh connection method requires matching connecting posts and screws. Each post has four connecting lugs that need to be tightened with screws. While this method is safe and reliable, the installation process is complex, requires a large number of parts, involves a significant workload, and is inefficient, making it unsuitable for quickly isolating hazardous areas. Furthermore, transportation costs are high, and the connecting posts can only stand stably on flat surfaces. When installed on uneven areas, problems such as the connecting posts being suspended and the mesh being tilted often occur.

[0005] Furthermore, while the simplified, standardized protective mesh connection method eliminates the cumbersome connecting posts mentioned above, replacing them with a trapezoidal support platform—where the standardized mesh is simply embedded into the platform—this installation method still has significant drawbacks: the trapezoidal support platform is irregularly shaped, making it inconvenient to transport, and it is unsuitable for connecting standardized mesh in corner areas. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the defects and shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a simple connection device for standardized protective mesh panels, so as to facilitate the connection of standardized mesh panels, provide stable support, facilitate transportation, and save space.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A simple connection device for standardized protective netting includes two U-shaped support members. The device is characterized in that each U-shaped support member has slots on both sides. The two U-shaped support members are stacked orthogonally to form a cross-shaped connector. The slots that are opposite each other or adjacent to each other can be used to insert two standardized protective netting pieces respectively.

[0009] Furthermore, each U-shaped support includes a vertical support rib, and two support legs are fixedly connected to both sides of the vertical support rib, with the slot formed between the two support legs on the same side.

[0010] Furthermore, the vertical support ribs are made of square columns.

[0011] Furthermore, each support leg is a square frame, and a slot is formed between two square frames on the same side.

[0012] Furthermore, the length of the square pillar is less than the length of the square frame.

[0013] Furthermore, the two boxes located on the same side are arranged face-to-face and parallel.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This utility model is a cross-shaped connector composed of two U-shaped support members stacked orthogonally. Each U-shaped support member has slots on both sides. Inserting two shaped protective netting sheets into any two pairs of opposite slots completes the connection of the shaped netting sheets in the same direction. The other two support legs without netting sheets provide support. In corner areas, inserting two shaped protective netting sheets into any two pairs of adjacent slots completes the connection of the shaped netting sheets in that area. The other two support legs without netting sheets provide support. This provides slots in four directions; simply inserting the netting sheets into the corresponding slots completes the connection. It is suitable for connecting netting sheets in the same direction and at corners. During transportation, they can be placed side-by-side, saving space and improving transportation efficiency. This utility model has four support legs, so it is not limited by ground conditions and can maintain good stability on both flat and uneven ground. Attached Figure Description

[0020] Figure 5 for Figure 3 Schematic diagram of local structure Figure 2 . Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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] See Figure 1-5 A simple connection device for standardized protective netting includes two U-shaped support members 1. Each U-shaped support member 1 has slots 2 on both sides. The two U-shaped support members 1 are stacked orthogonally to form a cross-shaped connector 3. Two standardized protective netting 6 can be inserted into the slots 2 that are opposite each other or adjacent to each other.

[0023] In this utility model, each "U"-shaped support 1 includes a vertical support rib 4, and two support legs 5 are fixedly connected to both sides of the vertical support rib 4, and a slot 2 is formed between the two support legs 5 on the same side.

[0024] It should be noted that the width of slot 2 is approximately equal to the thickness of a single piece of standardized protective mesh 6.

[0025] In this utility model, the vertical support rib 4 is a square column.

[0026] In this utility model, each support leg 5 is made of a square frame, and a slot 2 is formed between two square frames 5 on the same side.

[0027] In this invention, the length of the square column 4 is less than the length of the square frame 5.

[0028] Specifically, the length of the square pillar 4 is half the length of the square frame 5, so as to facilitate the orthogonal stacking of the two square pillars 4 one above the other, and to keep the bottom edges of each square frame 5 on the same plane after stacking.

[0029] In this invention, the two square frames 5 located on the same side are arranged face to face and parallel to facilitate the insertion of the standardized protective mesh 6.

[0030] It should be noted that, in terms of materials, the vertical support ribs (square columns) 4 and each support leg (square frame) 5 are made of steel. Of course, they can also be replaced with aluminum, wood or other rigid materials.

[0031] In terms of structure, while keeping the "concave" structure unchanged, the shape of each support leg 5 may include, but is not limited to, rectangle, square, trapezoid and triangle. The connection between the vertical support rib 4 and each support leg 5 may be by screw connection, welding or the like.

[0032] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0033] During installation, two vertical support ribs (square columns) 4 are stacked one on top of the other, so that the two U-shaped support pieces 1 are orthogonal to form a cross-shaped connector 3. The two shaped protective net pieces 6 are inserted into any two opposite slots 2 to complete the connection of the shaped net pieces in the same direction. At this time, the other two support feet 5 that are not inserted with net pieces provide support.

[0034] In the corner area, insert the two prefabricated protective mesh panels 6 into any two adjacent slots 2 to complete the connection of the prefabricated mesh panels 6 in this area. At this time, the other two support legs 5 that are not inserted with mesh panels provide support.

[0035] Compared to standard, modular protective mesh connection methods, this invention avoids the drawbacks of "post-type" connectors. During transport, the mesh can be placed side-by-side, saving space and improving transportation efficiency. With four support legs 5, it is not limited by ground conditions and maintains stability on both flat and uneven surfaces, solving the problem that post-type connectors can only handle flat ground. Installation is simple: just insert the mesh into the corresponding slot 2. This solves the problems of post-type connectors, which require screws, have a complex installation process, require numerous accessories, are labor-intensive, inefficient, and are not conducive to quickly isolating dangerous areas.

[0036] Furthermore, compared to the simple, standardized protective mesh connection method, this utility model allows for adjacent placement during transportation, saving space and improving transportation efficiency. This utility model provides slots 2 in four directions, and the connection of standardized mesh can be completed simply by inserting the mesh into the corresponding slot 2. It is suitable for connecting meshes in the same direction and at corners, solving the problem that the "trapezoidal" support platform, due to its irregular shape, can only connect meshes in one direction and cannot be used for connecting standardized meshes in corner areas.

[0037] In summary, this utility model has fast installation speed, high transportation efficiency, is suitable for both flat and uneven terrain, and is suitable for connecting mesh panels in the same direction and at corners.

[0038] Although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.

[0039] Therefore, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the scope of this application; that is, all equivalent modifications made in accordance with the scope of the claims of this application shall be within the protection scope of the claims of this application.
