Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cable transportation devices, and specifically relates to a rotating tail ladder for cable freight vehicles. Background Technology

[0002] In the cable freight industry, cable trucks, as core equipment for carrying and transporting cables and cable reels, require a ladder at the rear to meet the needs of operators who frequently need to get on and off the truck for tasks such as loading and unloading cable reels, assisting with cable laying, maintaining equipment on the roof, and temporarily securing cables. Currently, most cable trucks on the market have fixed ladders, meaning the ladder is rigidly connected to the truck body or bumper, making it impossible to rotate and adjust it according to the specific needs of cable operation scenarios. This type of fixed ladder has significant limitations in cable transportation scenarios: Firstly, cable freight vehicles often need to travel or park in cable storage areas, field construction sites, and other similar locations. The fixed ladders always protrude from the outside of the vehicle body, which not only increases the overall width of the vehicle, but also makes it easy to collide with cable reels in storage areas, cable supports in construction areas, or other freight equipment. This may damage the cables or equipment and seriously affect driving safety. At the same time, in narrow construction site passages or temporary parking areas, the protruding ladders will further restrict the flexibility of vehicle passage and parking. Secondly, when manually loading and unloading large cable reels with a crane, it is necessary to get on and off the vehicle from different positions at the rear to adjust the position of the cable reel; before laying the cable, the cable end needs to be fixed at different angles at the rear of the vehicle—but the step position of the fixed ladder is fixed, and the operator has to accommodate the ladder position to carry heavy cables, which not only increases the labor intensity, but may also cause the cable to be bumped or scratched due to the limited operating space. Third, the connection structure of some fixed ladders is complicated, and the installation and disassembly take a long time. If the ladder parts are damaged, it will directly affect the cable transportation and operation schedule. In addition, in rainy or snowy weather, water is easy to accumulate on the surface of the steps, which increases the risk of slipping for operators who need to carry cables up and down the vehicle, and can easily lead to personal safety accidents. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, the present invention provides a rotating tail ladder for cable freight trucks. Through optimized structural design, the ladder can rotate flexibly, improving the convenience and safety of operation. At the same time, it is easy to install, maintain and replace, so as to meet the practical needs of the freight industry for auxiliary equipment of trucks.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A rotating tail ladder for a cable freight vehicle includes a rotating shaft and a pedal. The rear of the vehicle body is fixedly connected to a bumper via a connecting rod. The side of the bumper is connected to a base plate, and the rotating shaft is vertically mounted on the lower end of the base plate. The rotating shaft can rotate freely around its own axis, and a pedal is inserted into the rotating shaft, and the pedal rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft.

[0005] In a preferred embodiment, the base plate and the back surface of the bumper are detachably connected by a first screw, and the base plate is provided with a rotating base; the bottom of the rotating shaft is inserted into the rotating base and can rotate freely around its own axis.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, bearing housings are installed on the rear of the truck body and on the bumper, and the rotating shaft is fixed inside the bearing housings and is tactilely connected to the bearing housings.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, an angle steel plate is installed on the bumper. One side of the angle steel plate is fixedly welded to the rotary motor, and the other side of the angle steel plate is detachably connected to the bumper by a second screw.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, a tapered nut is provided on the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and the drive shaft of the rotating motor is connected to a drive gear, which meshes with the tapered nut.

[0009] In the preferred embodiment, the rotating shaft is provided with equidistant insertion interfaces, and the side of the pedal is provided with a corresponding insertion plate, which is inserted and mated with the insertion interfaces; limit holes are correspondingly opened on the other side of the rotating shaft and the insertion plate, and the limit bolt passes through the limit hole and is threadedly connected to the fixing nut to lock and fix the position of the rotating shaft and the pedal.

[0010] In the preferred embodiment, the pedal is provided with drainage holes.

[0011] A rotating tail ladder for cable freight vehicles can achieve the following beneficial effects: 1. Since the rotating shaft can rotate freely around its own axis, when the cable freight vehicle is traveling or parked, the pedal can be rotated to a position that fits the vehicle body, preventing the ladder from protruding outside the vehicle body. This not only prevents collisions with cable reels in the cable storage area, cable supports at field construction sites, and other freight equipment, protecting cables and equipment from damage, but also effectively reduces the overall space occupied by the vehicle, making it easier for the vehicle to pass through narrow construction site passages and cable storage area passages and to park temporarily. This solves the problem of poor space adaptability of traditional fixed ladders in cable operation scenarios. 2. The pedal rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft. Operators can flexibly adjust the angle and position of the pedal according to the needs of different cable operation scenarios such as cable reel loading and unloading, cable laying, and roof maintenance. There is no need to carry the cable in a fixed ladder position, which reduces labor intensity and avoids cable bumps and scratches due to limited operating space, thus improving work efficiency and cable transportation protection. 3. The base plate and bumper are detachably connected by the first screw, the angle steel plate and bumper are detachably connected by the second screw, and the pedal and rotating shaft are locked together by plug-in fitting, limit bolts and fixing nuts. These connection methods not only ensure the structural stability, but also enable the quick installation, disassembly and replacement of each component of the ladder, avoiding maintenance delays caused by the cumbersome disassembly and assembly of traditional ladders, and ensuring that the transportation and operation schedule of the cable freight vehicle are not affected. 4. Drainage holes are provided on the pedals to drain rainwater and melted snow from the surface of the pedals in time during outdoor cable work in rainy or snowy weather. This prevents operators from slipping and getting on and off the vehicle while carrying cables, and also prevents water accumulation from corroding the pedal structure, further ensuring the personal safety of cable workers and extending the service life of the ladder.
