Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of elevator technology, and in particular to an easy-to-install outdoor elevator anti-fall rain canopy. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous acceleration of urbanization, outdoor elevators are increasingly widely used in commercial buildings, public facilities, and residential communities. Because they can provide convenient vertical transportation services without occupying indoor space, outdoor elevators have gradually become an indispensable part of modern buildings. As an important auxiliary facility to ensure the safe and stable operation of outdoor elevators, the outdoor elevator anti-fall rain canopy is used to prevent falling objects from heights from causing damage to the elevator car and passengers, while also providing wind and rain protection for the elevator and extending the service life of the elevator equipment.
[0003] Currently, canopy installation largely relies on high-altitude welding operations, which demands extremely high technical skills from construction workers. They must be proficient in welding techniques and adaptable to complex high-altitude environments. However, high-altitude welding operations are extremely risky; even a slight mistake can lead to a fall, seriously threatening the lives of construction workers. At the same time, the complex structural design and on-site processing and assembly methods make the installation process time-consuming and labor-intensive, and easily affected by external factors such as weather. In addition, differences in the technical skills of construction workers and the accumulation of errors during the installation process also lead to unstable installation quality, making it difficult to guarantee the canopy's fall protection function and service life. After installation, the maintenance and repair of the canopy also face the risks of high-altitude operations and difficulties in inspecting hidden parts, further increasing the cost of use and safety risks. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art, the main purpose of this utility model is to provide an outdoor elevator fall prevention canopy that is easy to install.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an easy-to-install outdoor elevator fall-prevention canopy includes an elevator corridor. Multiple canopy panels a are provided on both sides of the elevator corridor. Two canopy panels b are provided on the edge side of each canopy panel a. Several connecting holes a are provided on both sides of the canopy panels a and b. Rivets b are inserted into the interior of each connecting hole a.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the canopy panels are connected to each other by rivets b, and fixed to the elevator corridor by self-drilling screws. This connection method does not require professional welding skills, reducing the technical requirements for construction personnel.

The water-guiding assembly includes a water channel fixedly connected to one side of the canopy panel a and the canopy panel b, and a plurality of connection holes c are opened inside the two adjacent water channels.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the water channels are interconnected through the third connector and rivet a to form a continuous drainage channel, thus preventing water accumulation from damaging the canopy structure.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a third connector is provided between two adjacent waterways, and each of the third connectors has a rivet a inside.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solutions, subsequent maintenance and repairs become more convenient, reducing the difficulty of inspection caused by water accumulation in concealed areas.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, two adjacent waterways are connected by a third connector, and the top of each waterway is provided with a bent edge b.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solutions, not only is the structural rigidity of the canopy panels and waterways enhanced, but the service life of the canopy is also further extended.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the stress-reducing holes are arranged at equal intervals, and the radius of each stress-reducing hole decreases sequentially.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution and setting stress-reducing holes, the stress borne by the canopy panel during use can be effectively dispersed.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment, multiple integrated fastening connection holes are provided on both sides of the canopy panel a, and bolts are inserted into the interior of the integrated fastening connection holes.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution and using the integrated fastening connection holes and bolts, the firmness of the connection between the components is ensured.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0018] 1. In this utility model, the anti-fall canopy abandons the traditional high-altitude welding process and adopts a modular assembly design. The canopy panels are connected by rivets b, and fixed to the elevator corridor by self-drilling screws. This connection method does not require professional welding skills, reduces the technical level requirements of construction personnel, reduces the risk factor of high-altitude operations, and avoids fall accidents caused by welding errors.

[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0026] Reference Figure 1-4An easy-to-install outdoor elevator fall-prevention canopy includes an elevator corridor 1. Multiple canopy panels a2 are installed on both sides of the elevator corridor 1. Two canopy panels b3 are installed on the edge of each canopy panel a2. Several connecting holes a4 are provided on both sides of the canopy panels a2 and b3. Rivets b15 are inserted into the connecting holes a4. Adjacent canopy panels a2 and b3 are connected by rivets b15. Four connecting holes b7 are provided on the side of each canopy panel a2 and b3 closest to the elevator corridor 1. Self-drilling screws 11 are installed inside the connecting holes b7. Both canopy panels a2 and b3 are connected to the elevator corridor 1 by self-drilling screws 11. Both sides of canopy panel a2 and canopy panel b3 are provided with several stress-reducing holes 5. The top of canopy panel a2 is provided with multiple bent edges a6. This anti-fall canopy abandons the traditional high-altitude welding process and adopts a modular assembly design. The canopy panels are connected by rivets b15 and fixed to the elevator corridor 1 by self-drilling screws 11. This connection method does not require professional welding skills, reduces the technical level requirements of construction personnel, reduces the risk factor of high-altitude operations, and avoids falls caused by welding errors. At the same time, the modular structure makes the installation process simpler and more efficient, which can significantly shorten the installation time, reduce the construction cycle, and reduce the impact of external factors such as weather on the installation progress.
[0027] Specifically, a water-guiding component is provided on one side of both canopy panels a2 and b3. The water-guiding component includes a water channel 9 fixedly connected to one side of canopy panels a2 and b3. Several connection holes c10 are opened inside the two adjacent water channels 9. The water channels 9 are connected to each other through a third connector 13 and rivets a14 to form a continuous drainage channel, avoiding water accumulation that could damage the canopy structure. This method makes later maintenance and repair more convenient, reduces the difficulty of inspection caused by water accumulation in hidden parts, and lowers maintenance costs and safety risks. A third connector 13 is provided between two adjacent water channels 9. Rivets a14 are provided inside the third connector 13. The two adjacent water channels 9 are connected by the third connector 13. A bent edge b12 is provided at the top of the water channel 9. The bent edge a6 is provided at the top of the canopy panel a2, and the bent edge b12 above the water channel 9 not only enhances the structural rigidity of the canopy panel and the water channel 9, but also further extends the service life of the canopy.
[0028] Specifically, several stress-reducing holes 5 are arranged at equal intervals, and the radius of each stress-reducing hole 5 decreases sequentially. By setting the stress-reducing holes 5, the stress borne by the canopy panel during use can be effectively dispersed, avoiding structural damage caused by stress concentration, and improving the overall strength and stability of the canopy. Multiple integrated fastening connection holes 8 are opened on both sides of the canopy panel a2. The integrated fastening connection holes 8, in conjunction with the bolt design, ensure the firmness of the connection between the components, reduce the accumulation of errors during the installation process, and ensure the installation quality. Bolts are inserted into the integrated fastening connection holes 8.
[0029] Working principle: First, the operator can use the self-drilling screw 11 to insert into the corresponding connection hole b7 and install the canopy panels a2 in sequence, so that the canopy panels a2 are arranged on both sides of the elevator corridor 1. Then, the canopy panels a2 are connected with each other by rivets b15. In the final stage, two canopy panels b3 are used. Then, the operator can place the third connector 13 between two adjacent water channels 9 and use rivets a14 to fix the third connector 13 at the junction of the two adjacent water channels 9. Then, bolts are used to tighten the corresponding connection holes 8 to connect and reinforce the two pairs of canopy panels a2 again, so as to improve the overall strength and stability of the canopy. The above connection method does not require professional welding skills, which reduces the technical level requirements of the construction personnel, reduces the risk factor of high-altitude operation, and avoids falls caused by welding errors. At the same time, the modular structure makes the installation process simpler and more efficient, which can significantly shorten the installation time and reduce the construction cycle.
