[0020] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0021] As shown in the figure, a guardrail clamp for a bridge maintenance access ramp includes an arc plate 1, a pad plate 2, an ear plate 3, a clamp 4, and fasteners 5. The arc plate 1 and the ear plate 3 are welded and fixed to the upper and lower ends of the pad plate 2, respectively. The middle part of the arc plate 1 protrudes outward to form a semi-circular arc structure, and the two sides of the arc plate 1 form wing plates I6 for installing fasteners. The clamp 4 is a semi-circular arc structure used in conjunction with the arc plate 1. The two sides of the clamp 4 are provided with wing plates II7 for installing fasteners. Multiple pre-drilled holes 10 are provided on the wing plates I6 and II7 in the same position. The fasteners 5 are installed in the pre-drilled holes 10 to clamp the circular tube 9 of the ramp guardrail.
[0022] As a further optimization of the above-mentioned guardrail clamp for the inclined ladder of the bridge maintenance passage, a clearance is left between the lower end of the clamp 4 and the pad 2.
[0023] As a further optimization of the above-mentioned guardrail clamp for the inclined ladder of the bridge maintenance passage, the ear plate 3 is provided with ear plate holes 11.
[0024] As a further optimization of the above-mentioned guardrail clamp for the inclined ladder of the bridge maintenance passage, the fastener 5 includes a fastening bolt, a washer, and a nut.

[0026] The usage process of this utility model is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the installation and use of this utility model. First, measure the positions of the ear plate 8 of the inclined ladder column and the round tube 9 of the inclined ladder railing. Connect the ear plate hole 11 to the ear hole on the ear plate 8 of the inclined ladder column, and then fix it with a pin. Then adjust the position of the round tube 9 of the inclined ladder railing so that its upper end is installed in the circular clamping space formed by the arc plate 1 and the clamp 4. Then use the fastener 5 to clamp the round tube 9 of the inclined ladder railing tightly.
[0027] In actual design, the lengths of the arc plate 1 and the clamp 4 can be adjusted appropriately according to the positions of the inclined ladder column ear plate 8 and the inclined ladder guardrail round tube 9, so that they match the length of the inclined ladder guardrail round tube.
[0028] This utility model features an ingenious design, convenient installation and construction, and reduced operator difficulty. The position of the inclined ladder column's round tube is adjustable, improving the installation quality and stability of the inclined ladder in the bridge maintenance passage. It solves the technical problems of large errors in the assembly of the railing and column of the existing inclined ladder, the inability to freely adjust the position of the inclined ladder column's round tube, and the impact on the assembly of the inclined ladder in the maintenance passage. Compared with existing technologies, it has a very good market prospect and development space.
