Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of building construction, and in particular relates to a foundation pit guardrail. Background Technology

[0002] Pit guardrails are important safety protection facilities used around construction site pits, primarily to prevent personnel, vehicles, or materials from accidentally falling into the pit and ensuring construction safety. They are typically made of steel, steel pipes, or other high-strength materials, featuring a stable structure and easy installation. During construction, pit guardrails not only isolate dangerous areas but also help regulate site order and reduce accidents. To ensure long-term effectiveness, pit guardrails must have good corrosion resistance; some products undergo hot-dip galvanizing or powder coating processes to enhance durability. Regular inspection and maintenance are also crucial for ensuring the safety performance of pit guardrails.

[0003] Comparing with Chinese Patent No. CN221236528U, a construction pit guardrail is disclosed, including a guardrail and uprights. The guardrail uses multiple pointed ends to prevent unauthorized personnel from climbing over it. Then, the guardrail is rotated 180 degrees upwards to make it vertical. The elastic force of a spring drives the insert rod to move inwards into the inner cavity of the guardrail to limit and fix it. At this time, the guardrail is located above the pointed ends to protect it and prevent the pointed ends from accidentally injuring others during transportation. The insert rod has two parts, one above the other, which can limit and fix the guardrail in the open and one in the retracted state respectively, improving the safety of the device.

[0004] However, the aforementioned patent requires the diagonal bracing rod to be placed separately during storage, which increases the waste of transportation space, makes it easy to lose, and is not convenient for quick assembly and disassembly. Therefore, a new device needs to be designed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a foundation pit guardrail to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A foundation pit guardrail includes a main body for protection and obstruction, and symmetrically arranged column devices at both ends of the main body for connection and fixation. A reinforcing device for expanding an inclined top to form a triangular support and enhance load-bearing capacity is slidably mounted on the rear of each column device. The reinforcing device is housed inside the column device. Fixed anchors are installed on both the column device and the reinforcing device, forming a triangular fixation on the ground. Each column device includes a column frame, which is a rectangular frame with an opening at the rear. A base is provided at the bottom of the column frame. Two connecting components are evenly arranged at the front of the column frame. Two limiting grooves are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the column frame, and positioning grooves are provided at the bottom of the limiting grooves at an upward inclination. Each reinforcing device includes an extension frame, which is a rectangular frame with an opening at the top. A first rotating shaft is provided at one end of the extension frame, and the first rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the bottom of the column frame. A diagonal brace is rotatably mounted on the end of the extension frame away from the first rotating shaft, and the diagonal brace slides along the limiting groove at the end away from the extension frame.

[0008] Furthermore: the main device includes a guardrail frame, four connecting ears are evenly distributed on both sides of the guardrail frame, and a guardrail mesh is fixedly installed inside the guardrail frame.

[0009] Furthermore: a guardrail plate is riveted to the bottom of the guardrail mesh, and reflective stickers are affixed to the surface of the guardrail plate.

[0010] Furthermore: two first through holes are symmetrically arranged on the base, and a second through hole is provided on the end of the extension frame near the diagonal brace assembly.

[0011] Furthermore, the connecting assembly includes a horizontally arranged fixing plate, with two connecting studs symmetrically arranged at both ends of the fixing plate, and a locking nut installed on the connecting stud.

[0012] Furthermore, the base and the fixing plate are respectively welded to the column frame.

[0013] Furthermore: the diagonal brace assembly includes a diagonal brace rod, and two second rotating shafts are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the diagonal brace rod. The second rotating shaft at the bottom of the diagonal brace rod is rotatably connected to the extension frame.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects are:

[0015] 1. The reinforcing device can be completely stored inside the column, saving space during transportation; when unfolded, it can be automatically locked by simply pulling and flipping (the diagonal brace inserts into the positioning slot), and no tools are required for operation, saving time and effort; it is especially suitable for occasions such as construction sites where guardrails need to be frequently installed / removed;

[0016] 2. The second pivot at the top of the diagonal brace moves along the preset slide groove to ensure accurate unfolding trajectory, and finally locks into the inclined positioning groove to achieve self-locking and prevent the support from loosening; all unfolding steps can be reversed, which is convenient for temporary disassembly or reuse.

[0017] 3. The rigid triangular support formed by the deployable reinforcement device (extension frame + diagonal brace) and the column device significantly improves the overall resistance to lateral impact, making it suitable for scenarios where the edge of the foundation pit is susceptible to external impact. The column base and the extension frame are fixed to the ground by anchors, forming a triangular fixing system of "ground-column-diagonal brace" to prevent the guardrail from overturning.
