Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of auxiliary components for semi-trailer tank trucks, specifically to a folding ladder with a mechanical tank top linkage guardrail. Background Technology

[0002] A semi-trailer tanker truck is a tanker truck that connects to a trailer unit via a tractor unit. Compared to ordinary single-unit tanker trucks, semi-trailer tanker trucks can effectively improve transportation efficiency for oil transport. With the same tonnage, they reduce transportation costs and save fuel consumption.

[0003] In the design of existing semi-trailer tank trucks, the tank location requires personnel to periodically climb to the top of the tank for maintenance. Therefore, in order to ensure that personnel can climb to the top of the tank smoothly, a ladder is often added to the rear of the tank. At the same time, in order to ensure personnel safety, guardrails are often installed on both sides of the top of the tank.

[0004] However, in the existing technology, firstly, regarding the location of the ladder, the ladder at the rear of the tank is usually of fixed specifications and cannot be adjusted. This results in the bottom of the ladder being usually low, which not only affects safe operation but also makes it easy for unauthorized personnel to climb it, posing a safety hazard. As for the guardrail, although the guardrail is designed to be foldable for easy storage when not in use, it often requires personnel to climb to the top of the tank to operate the folding and unfolding of the guardrail, which still poses a significant safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a folding ladder with a mechanical tank top linkage guardrail in order to solve the above problems, as detailed below.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model provides a folding ladder with a mechanical tank top linkage guardrail, including a storage tank body, and a climbing mechanism is assembled and installed at the tail of the storage tank body to facilitate climbing to the top of the storage tank body.

[0008] The top of the storage tank body is equipped with a guardrail mechanism that can be unfolded and folded, so as to protect personnel from falling when they are on the top of the storage tank body.

[0009] The lower part of the climbing mechanism is equipped with a step mechanism that has the functions of unfolding downwards and folding upwards, so that personnel can easily step on the step mechanism to climb to the top of the storage tank body by flipping it downwards.

[0010] The side of the step mechanism is combined with the guardrail mechanism through a linkage mechanism, so as to realize the linkage opening and closing of the step mechanism and the guardrail mechanism by means of the linkage mechanism.

[0011] Preferably, the upper part of the climbing mechanism is fixed to the top of the tail of the tank body via a climbing mechanism fixing seat, and the climbing mechanism extends downward at the tail of the tank body.

[0012] Preferably, the ladder mechanism has multiple layers of ladder steps spaced vertically, and a ladder handrail is provided at the top of the ladder mechanism where it connects to the tank body.

[0013] Preferably, the guardrail mechanism includes guardrail crossbars and guardrail uprights. There are two guardrail crossbars, which are suspended parallel to each other on the top two sides of the tank body in the width direction. Multiple hinge fixing seats are fixedly connected to both sides of the tank body in the width direction. Multiple guardrail uprights are connected between the guardrail crossbars and the hinge fixing seats. The upper and lower ends of the guardrail uprights are rotatably connected to the guardrail crossbars and the hinge fixing seats through upper hinge parts and lower hinge parts, respectively.

[0014] Preferably, the ladder mechanism includes a flip-up ladder and a ladder fixing seat. The ladder fixing seats are fixedly connected in pairs on both sides of the ladder mechanism, and the ends of the longitudinal beams on both sides of the flip-up ladder are rotatably connected to the ladder fixing seats through pin connections, so that the flip-up ladder can flip up and down around the ladder fixing seats.

[0015] Preferably, the treadmill mounting base on one side of the flip-up step is provided with a chain pin and a locking pin hole, which is used to lock the flip-up step in its flipped-up state by inserting the chain pin into the locking pin hole when the flip-up step is flipped up to extend and be stored upwards.

[0016] Preferably, the pin connection parts are all assemblies with cotter pins added to the ends of the pins.

[0017] Preferably, the distance between each set of ladder fixing seats is not less than 40mm.

[0018] Preferably, the linkage mechanism includes a linkage rod and a connecting arm. A guardrail fixing seat is fixedly connected to the other side of the flip-up step. The linkage rod is rotatably connected to the guardrail fixing seat and the connecting arm through a rotating connecting part. At the same time, the connecting arm is combined with the guardrail upright through the connecting seat. This allows the guardrail upright to flip from an inclined folded state to a vertically unfolded state or return from a vertically unfolded state to an inclined folded state by moving the linkage mechanism composed of the linkage rod and the connecting arm through the flip-up step.

[0019] Preferably, the rotating connection parts are all assemblies with cotter pins added to the ends of the pin shafts.

[0020] In practical application, the aforementioned folding ladder with a mechanical tank top linkage guardrail features a step mechanism at its lower part. This mechanism has both downward unfolding and upward folding functions. The flip-up step of this mechanism is rotatably connected to the step fixing seat via a pin connection. By flipping the flip-up step around the step fixing seat downwards, the step extends downwards, facilitating easy access for personnel to climb to the top of the tank body. Conversely, by flipping the flip-up step around the step fixing seat upwards, the step extends upwards. The extended storage design allows for easy folding of the tread mechanism after use to prevent unauthorized climbing and ensure safety. The tread mechanism features a chain pin and a locking pin hole on one side of the tread fixing base. When the tread is folded up for extended storage, inserting the chain pin into the locking pin hole supports the lower part of the tread, locking it in the folded-up state. Pulling the chain pin out of the locking pin hole releases the support, unlocking the tread. The locking and unlocking methods for the flip-up ladder are simple and easy to operate. It facilitates locking the flip-up ladder in its upward-folded, stowed state, and also allows it to be easily unlocked and unfolded for use. The side of the ladder mechanism is connected to the guardrail mechanism via a linkage mechanism. The two ends of the linkage rod of the linkage mechanism are rotatably connected to the guardrail fixing seat and the connecting arm via rotating connecting parts. The connecting arm is connected to the guardrail upright of the guardrail mechanism via the connecting seat. The guardrail fixing seat is connected to the outside of the flip-up ladder. Therefore, during the process of the flip-up ladder unfolding downwards, the ladder drives the linkage rod and the connecting arm... The linkage mechanism formed by the connecting arm allows the guardrail posts of the guardrail mechanism to flip from an inclined, folded state to a vertically unfolded state. This enables the ladder mechanism to drive the guardrail mechanism to unfold during the downward unfolding process, achieving coordinated opening of the ladder mechanism and the guardrail mechanism. This facilitates the guardrail mechanism being already in the unfolded state when personnel climb to the top of the storage tank for inspection, eliminating the need for personnel to manually open the guardrail mechanism and removing the safety hazards of opening the guardrail mechanism from the top of the storage tank. Furthermore, during the upward unfolding and retraction of the flipping ladder, the linkage mechanism consisting of the flipping ladder and the connecting arm moves accordingly.The guardrail mechanism allows the guardrail posts to flip from a vertically unfolded state to a tilted, folded state, thus enabling the ladder mechanism to fold and store the guardrail mechanism in conjunction with its unfolding. This achieves coordinated folding of the ladder mechanism and the guardrail mechanism, facilitating simultaneous operation to return them to their folded state after use. This eliminates the need for personnel to manually fold the guardrail and ladder mechanisms sequentially, reducing workload and eliminating the safety hazard of folding the guardrail mechanism on top of the tank body. Furthermore, due to… The guardrail mechanism comprises multiple guardrail uprights connected to the horizontal guardrail bars and the hinge fixing seats. The upper and lower ends of each upright are rotatably connected to the horizontal guardrail bars and the hinge fixing seats via upper and lower hinges, respectively. By rotating the uprights around the upper and lower hinges, the uprights can be adjusted to an upright position or a tilted / folded position. The guardrail mechanism is simple to open and fold for storage, facilitating its installation on the top of the storage tank.

[0021] The beneficial effects are as follows: 1. The present invention has a ladder mechanism with downward unfolding and upward folding functions assembled at the lower part of the ladder mechanism. At the same time, the flip-up ladder of the ladder mechanism and the ladder fixing seat are rotatably connected together by the pin connection part. Then, by flipping down the ladder mechanism around the ladder fixing seat, the flip-up ladder can be flipped down to extend downward, so that people can easily climb to the top of the tank body by stepping on the ladder steps. At the same time, by flipping up the ladder mechanism around the ladder fixing seat, the flip-up ladder can be flipped up to extend upward and be stored. This makes it easy to prevent unauthorized personnel from climbing after use by flipping up the ladder mechanism, and also helps to ensure the safety of use.

[0022] 2. The step mechanism has a chain pin and a locking pin hole on one side of the step fixing base assembly. When the flip step is flipped up to extend and be stored, the lower part of the flip step can be supported by inserting the chain pin into the locking pin hole, thereby locking the flip step in the flipped state. At the same time, the chain pin can be released by pulling it out of the locking pin hole, thereby unlocking the flip step in the flipped state. The locking and unlocking method of the flip step in the flipped state is simple and easy to operate. It is convenient to lock the flip step in the flipped state and also convenient to release the flip step in the flipped state to unfold and use.

[0023] 3. The side of the step ladder mechanism is combined with the guardrail mechanism through a linkage mechanism. At the same time, the two ends of the linkage linkage of the linkage mechanism are rotatably connected to the guardrail fixing seat and the connecting arm through the rotating connection part, and the connecting arm is combined with the guardrail upright of the guardrail mechanism through the connecting seat. The guardrail fixing seat is connected to the outside of the flip-up step ladder. Then, in the process of the flip-up step ladder flipping down and extending downward, the linkage mechanism composed of the linkage linkage and the connecting arm is moved by the flip-up step ladder, which can make the guardrail upright of the guardrail mechanism flip from the inclined folded state to the vertical unfolded state. This realizes the function of the step ladder mechanism driving the guardrail mechanism to unfold during the downward unfolding process. It realizes the linkage opening of the step ladder mechanism and the guardrail mechanism, which makes it convenient for personnel to climb to the top of the storage tank body for inspection and maintenance. The guardrail mechanism is already in the unfolded state, without the need for personnel to open the guardrail mechanism separately, and eliminates the safety hazards of opening the guardrail mechanism on the top of the storage tank body.

[0024] 4. During the process of the flip-up ladder flipping up and extending upwards for storage, the linkage mechanism consisting of the flip-up ladder driving the linkage rod and connecting arm can rotate the guardrail uprights from the vertically unfolded state to the tilted folded state. This realizes the function of the ladder mechanism driving the guardrail mechanism to fold and store during the upward unfolding process. It realizes the linkage folding of the ladder mechanism and the guardrail mechanism, which makes it easy to operate the ladder mechanism and the guardrail mechanism to return to the folded storage state simultaneously after use. There is no need for personnel to fold the guardrail mechanism and the ladder mechanism separately, which reduces the workload of personnel and eliminates the safety hazards of folding the guardrail mechanism on the top of the storage tank body.

[0025] 5. The guardrail mechanism has multiple guardrail uprights connected to the guardrail crossbar and the hinge fixing seat. The upper and lower ends of the guardrail uprights are rotatably connected to the guardrail crossbar and the hinge fixing seat through the upper and lower hinge parts, respectively. By rotating the upper and lower ends of the guardrail uprights around the upper and lower hinge seats, the guardrail uprights can be adjusted to an upright use state and an inclined folded state. The opening and folding storage of the guardrail mechanism is simple and easy to implement, making it convenient to install the guardrail mechanism on the top of the storage tank body.

[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0036] See Figures 1-6As shown, this utility model provides a folding ladder with a mechanical tank top linkage guardrail, including a storage tank body 5. A climbing mechanism 3 is assembled and installed at the rear of the storage tank body 5 to facilitate climbing to the top of the storage tank body 5. A guardrail mechanism 1 that can be unfolded and folded is assembled and installed at the top of the storage tank body 5 to protect personnel from falling when on the top of the storage tank body 5. Specifically, the guardrail mechanism 1 includes guardrail crossbars 101 and guardrail uprights 103. There are two guardrail crossbars 101, which are suspended parallel to each other on both sides of the top of the storage tank body 5 in the width direction. Multiple hinge fixing seats 105 are fixedly connected to both sides of the storage tank body 5 in the width direction. Multiple guardrail posts 103 are connected to the hinge fixing seats 105, and the upper and lower ends of the guardrail posts 103 are rotatably connected to the guardrail crossbar 101 and the hinge fixing seats 105 through the upper hinge part 102 and the lower hinge part 104, respectively. The purpose of this arrangement is that by rotating the upper and lower ends of the guardrail posts 103 around the upper and lower hinge seats, the guardrail posts 103 can be adjusted to a vertical use state and a tilted folded state. The opening and folding storage of the guardrail mechanism 1 is simple and easy to realize.

[0037] See Figures 1-6 As shown, the lower part of the climbing mechanism 3 is equipped with a step mechanism 4 that has the functions of flipping down and unfolding, and flipping up and folding. This is to facilitate personnel to step on the step mechanism 4 and climb to the top of the storage tank body 5 smoothly via the climbing mechanism 3. Specifically, the step mechanism 4 includes a flip-up step 401 and a step fixing seat 403. The step fixing seats 403 are fixedly connected in pairs on both sides of the climbing mechanism 3. The ends of the longitudinal beams on both sides of the flip-up step 401 are rotatably connected to the step fixing seats 403 through pin connecting parts 402, so that the flip-up step 401 can be flipped up and down around the step fixing seats 403. The purpose of this arrangement is that by flipping down the step mechanism 4 around the step fixing seats 403, the flip-up step 401 can be flipped down to extend downwards and unfolded. At the same time, by flipping up the step mechanism 4 around the step fixing seats 403, the flip-up step 401 can be flipped up to extend upwards and be stored.

[0038] See Figures 1-6As shown, the side of the step mechanism 4 is combined with the guardrail mechanism 1 through the linkage mechanism 2. The linkage mechanism 2 is used to achieve the linkage opening and closing of the step mechanism 4 and the guardrail mechanism 1. Specifically, the linkage mechanism 2 includes a linkage rod 203 and a connecting arm 202. A guardrail fixing seat 205 is fixedly connected to the other side of the flip step 401. The linkage rod 203 is rotatably connected to the guardrail fixing seat 205 and the connecting arm 202 through a rotating connecting part 204. Simultaneously, the connecting arm 202 is combined with the guardrail upright 103 through the connecting seat 201. This allows the guardrail upright 103 to flip from an inclined folded state to a vertically unfolded state or return from a vertically unfolded state to an inclined folded state by moving the linkage mechanism composed of the linkage rod 203 and the connecting arm 202 through the flip step 401. This design is because when the flip step 401 flips down... During the downward extension process, the linkage mechanism consisting of the flipping step 401 driving the linkage link 203 and connecting arm 202 can rotate the guardrail upright 103 of the guardrail mechanism 1 from an inclined folded state to a vertically unfolded state. This realizes the function of the step mechanism 4 driving the guardrail mechanism 1 to unfold during the downward extension process, and realizes the linkage opening of the step mechanism 4 and the guardrail mechanism 1. At the same time, during the upward extension and storage process of the flipping step 401, the linkage mechanism consisting of the flipping step 401 driving the linkage link 203 and connecting arm 202 can rotate the guardrail upright 103 of the guardrail mechanism 1 from a vertically unfolded state to an inclined folded state. This realizes the function of the step mechanism 4 driving the guardrail mechanism 1 to fold and store during the upward extension process, and realizes the linkage folding of the step mechanism 4 and the guardrail mechanism 1.

[0039] See Figures 1-6 As shown, the following optimizations have been made to this application: the upper part of the climbing mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the tail of the storage tank body 5 via the climbing mechanism fixing seat 303, and the climbing mechanism 3 extends downward at the tail of the storage tank body 5 so that the climbing mechanism 3 can be firmly fixed at the tail of the storage tank body 5 to facilitate personnel climbing to the top of the storage tank body 5. Optionally, the climbing mechanism 3 is provided with multiple layers of climbing steps 301 at intervals in the vertical direction, and a climbing handrail 302 is provided at the position where the top of the climbing mechanism 3 connects with the storage tank body 5. This arrangement facilitates the easy climbing of the tank body by stepping on the climbing steps 301, and also facilitates the smooth transition to the top of the storage tank body 5 by holding the climbing handrail 302 when personnel reach the top of the climbing mechanism 3.

[0040] See Figures 1-6As shown, the treadmill 401 has a chain pin 405 and a locking pin hole 404 assembled on one side of the treadmill fixing base 403. When the treadmill 401 is flipped up to extend and be stored upwards, the chain pin 405 is inserted into the locking pin hole 404 to lock the treadmill 401 in the flipped-up state. With this configuration, when the treadmill 401 is flipped up to extend and be stored upwards, the chain pin 405 can support the lower part of the treadmill 401, thereby locking the treadmill 401 in the flipped-up state. At the same time, simply pulling the chain pin 405 out of the locking pin hole 404 can release the chain pin 405 supporting the treadmill 401, thereby unlocking the treadmill 401 in the flipped-up state. The locking and unlocking method of the treadmill 401 in the flipped-up state is simple and easy to operate. Alternatively, all pin connection parts 402 are assemblies with cotter pins at the ends of the pins, and all rotating connection parts 204 are assemblies with cotter pins at the ends of the pins. This arrangement facilitates a stable rotating connection between the tilting ladder 401 and the ladder fixing seat 403 via the pin connection parts 402. It also facilitates a stable rotating connection between the connecting arm 202 and the linkage rod 203 via the rotating connection parts 204, and a stable rotating connection between the linkage rod 203 and the guardrail fixing seat 205 via the rotating connection parts 204. Furthermore, the distance between each set of ladder fixing seats 403 is no less than 40mm, ensuring sufficient space between the ladder fixing seats 403 to accommodate the outer diameter of the longitudinal beam of the tilting ladder 401, thus ensuring that the tilting ladder 401 can smoothly perform both upward and downward tilting operations.

[0041] With the above structure, in practical use, a step mechanism 4 with downward unfolding and upward folding functions is assembled at the lower part of the climbing mechanism 3. The flip-up step 401 of the step mechanism 4 is rotatably connected to the step fixing seat 403 via a pin connection part 402. By flipping the flip-up step 401 around the step fixing seat 403, the flip-up step 401 can be extended downwards, facilitating personnel to easily climb to the top of the storage tank body 5 via the climbing mechanism 3 by stepping on the step pedals. Simultaneously, by flipping the flip-up step 401 around the step fixing seat 403, the flip-up step 401 can be extended upwards for storage, facilitating storage after use. By flipping the step mechanism 4 upwards, unauthorized personnel are prevented from climbing, which also helps ensure safety. Since the step mechanism 4 has a step fixing base 403 on one side equipped with a chain pin 405 and a locking pin hole 404, when the flip step 401 is flipped upwards and extended for storage, inserting the chain pin 405 into the locking pin hole 404 allows the chain pin 405 to support the lower part of the flip step 401, thus locking the flip step 401 in its flipped state. Simultaneously, simply pulling the chain pin 405 out of the locking pin hole 404 releases the chain pin 405 supporting the flip step 401, thus unlocking the flip step 401 in its flipped state. The locking and unlocking methods are simple and easy to operate. It facilitates locking the flip-up step 401 in its upward-folded storage state and also allows it to be unfolded and used after the upward-folding lock is released. Since the side of the step mechanism 4 is combined with the guardrail mechanism 1 via the linkage mechanism 2, and both ends of the linkage rod 203 of the linkage mechanism 2 are rotatably connected to the guardrail fixing seat 205 and the connecting arm 202 via the rotating connecting part 204, and the connecting arm 202 is combined with the guardrail upright 103 of the guardrail mechanism 1 via the connecting seat 201, and the guardrail fixing seat 205 is connected to the outside of the flip-up step 401, during the process of the flip-up step 401 unfolding downwards, the flip-up step 401 drives the linkage rod 203. The linkage mechanism consisting of link 3 and connecting arm 202 allows the guardrail upright 103 of guardrail mechanism 1 to flip from an inclined folded state to a vertically unfolded state. This enables the ladder mechanism 4 to drive the guardrail mechanism 1 to unfold during the downward unfolding process, achieving the linkage opening of ladder mechanism 4 and guardrail mechanism 1. This facilitates the guardrail mechanism 1 being already in the unfolded state when personnel climb to the top of the storage tank body 5 for maintenance, eliminating the need for personnel to manually open guardrail mechanism 1 and removing the safety hazard of opening guardrail mechanism 1 on top of storage tank body 5. Furthermore, during the upward unfolding and retraction of the flip ladder 401, the linkage mechanism consisting of link 203 and connecting arm 202 is activated by the flip ladder 401.The guardrail uprights 103 of the guardrail mechanism 1 can be flipped from a vertically unfolded state to a tilted, folded state. This enables the ladder mechanism 4 to fold and store the guardrail mechanism 1 in conjunction with its unfolding process. This linkage between the ladder mechanism 4 and the guardrail mechanism 1 allows for simultaneous operation to return them to their folded state after use, eliminating the need for personnel to manually fold the guardrail mechanism 1 and ladder mechanism 4 sequentially. This reduces workload and eliminates the safety hazard of folding the guardrail mechanism 1 on top of the tank body 5. Furthermore, due to the... Multiple guardrail uprights 103 are connected between the guardrail crossbar 101 and the hinge fixing seat 105. The upper and lower ends of the guardrail uprights 103 are rotatably connected to the guardrail crossbar 101 and the hinge fixing seat 105 via an upper hinge part 102 and a lower hinge part 104, respectively. By rotating the upper and lower ends of the guardrail uprights 103 around the upper and lower hinge seats, the guardrail uprights 103 can be adjusted to an upright position and a tilted / folded position. The opening and folding storage of the guardrail mechanism 1 are simple and easy to implement, facilitating its installation on the top of the storage tank body 5.

Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
