Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of guardrails for elevator car tops, and more particularly to a retractable guardrail for elevator car tops. Background Technology

[0002] The elevator car top is a crucial component of the elevator structure. Located atop the elevator car, it supports and protects the internal equipment. The car top is typically made of robust materials, such as metal or reinforced plastic, to withstand the various pressures and weights exerted during elevator operation. Below the car top lies the main working area of ​​the elevator, including the control system, motor, transmission system, and other related electrical and mechanical equipment. These components work together to ensure the smooth and safe operation of the elevator. The elevator car top railing, serving as a protective element for construction and maintenance personnel, plays a vital role in ensuring the safety of those working on the car top. To accommodate elevator installation, telescopic elevator car top railings are used. However, existing railings typically rely on bolts for extension and retraction. This method of fixing is prone to wobbling under stress due to loose bolts, making it unstable.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to design a retractable guardrail for the top of the elevator car to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

The bottom of the guardrail 1 has four pairs of mounting holes 101. The rear guardrail 2 is welded to the rear side of the guardrail 1. The mounting base 3 is fixedly connected to the front right side of the guardrail 1. The drive motor 4 is installed at the bottom of the mounting base 3. The output shaft at the top of the drive motor 4 is fixedly connected to the first spiral rod 5. The lifting guard plate 6 is slidably connected to the upper part of the guardrail 1. The rear guardrail 2 is slidably connected to the lifting guard plate 6. The handle 7 is welded to the rear inner side of the lifting guard plate 6, and the first spiral rod 5 is threadedly connected to the lifting guard plate 6. Electrical mounting plates 8 are provided on both the left and right sides of the lifting guard plate 6. The electrical mounting plates 8 have multiple holes for installation. The controller 10 is installed on the right inner side of the guardrail 1, and the controller 10 is electrically connected to the drive motor 4.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it also includes warning lights 9, with two warning lights 9 installed on the left and right sides of the top of the lifting guard plate 6.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, it also includes connecting guard plates 11, hinges 12, protective doors 13 and pull rings 14. The front left and right sides of the guardrail 1 are connected to the connecting guard plates 11 by bolts. The two connecting guard plates 11 are connected to the hinges 12 by bolts near the center end. The two hinges 12 are connected to the protective doors 13 by bolts near the center end. The upper front side of the two protective doors 13 is provided with pull rings 14.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a second spiral rod 15, a locking block 16, and a handwheel 17. The top of the left protective door 13 is threadedly connected to the second spiral rod 15, and the top of the right protective door 13 is fixedly connected to the locking block 16. The locking block 16 is threadedly connected to the second spiral rod 15, and the left side of the second spiral rod 15 is fixedly connected to the handwheel 17.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a warning plate 18, a magnetic plate 19 and a magnetic strip 20. The front sides of the two protective doors 13 are connected to the warning plate 18 by bolts. The inner sides of the two warning plates 18 are fixedly connected to the magnetic plate 19. Two magnetic strips 20 are placed on the two magnetic plates 19, and the magnetic strips 20 are attracted to the magnetic plate 19.

[0027] like Figure 5 As shown, it also includes supplementary lights 21. Multiple supplementary lights 21 are installed around the inner side of both warning panels 18. The controller 10 is electrically connected to the supplementary lights 21.

[0029] Workers can apply this device to the elevator car top as needed. When using the device, first install it on the elevator car top through the mounting hole 101. Then, turn the handwheel 17 clockwise to move the second spiral rod 15 to the left until the second spiral rod 15 disengages from the locking block 16. Next, open the safety door 13 through the pull ring 14. Then, place the drawing to be referenced during construction on the magnetic plate 19, pick up the magnetic strip 20, and place it on the drawing. The drawing is fixed by the attraction between the magnetic plate 19 and the magnetic strip 20. Then, the worker starts the drive motor 4 through the controller 10 to adjust the lifting guard plate 6 to move up and down. The rear support 2 provides support, making the lifting guard plate 6 and the guardrail 1 more stable. The top of the lifting guard plate 6 is equipped with a warning light 9 to remind workers to start work. The personnel adjust the lifting guard plate 6 to a suitable position to ensure the safety of the personnel. Then, the relevant equipment is installed through the electrical mounting plate 8. Because the electrical mounting plate 8 has multiple holes for installation, it can accommodate equipment of different specifications. If the light on the drawing is relatively dim, the supplementary light 21 is turned on through the controller 10 to make it easier for the personnel to see the drawing and facilitate their work. After the installation is completed, the supplementary light 21 is turned off, and then the protective door 13 is closed. The buffer pad 22 protects the protective door 13 from collision when it is closed. Then, the handwheel 17 is turned counterclockwise to drive the second spiral rod 15 to move to the right and re-engage with the locking block 16, thereby fixing the protective door 13 in the closed state. Finally, the magnetic strip 20 is picked up, the drawing is taken out, and then the magnetic strip 20 is placed back on the magnetic plate 19.
