Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a high handrail platform ladder for safety protection. Background Technology

[0002] Ladders are commonly used auxiliary tools for working at heights in daily production and life, and are widely used in warehousing, manufacturing, commercial displays, and home environments. Among them, platform ladders, as a type of ladder with a standing platform, provide users with a relatively stable working support surface, allowing users to operate freely with both hands when working at heights, thus offering high safety and convenience.

[0003] Traditional platform ladders typically consist of a frame, treads, and a platform. The front frame has several treads for users to climb, while the rear frame has a support shaft to maintain stability. The front and rear frames are usually hinged together by connectors or rods, allowing the ladder to unfold and fold for easy transport and storage. To prevent users from falling from the platform, traditional platform ladders usually have handrails or guardrails on both sides of the platform.

[0004] However, the handrail design of most platform stairs in the current technology still has obvious shortcomings. Specifically, the handrail height of traditional platform stairs (measured vertically from the standing surface of the platform) is mostly in the range of 700mm to 900mm, with only a few products reaching about 950mm, which is only equivalent to the minimum requirement of the current safety standards.

[0005] According to ergonomic and safety regulations, when a user is standing and working on a platform, if their center of gravity shifts unexpectedly, such as leaning forward, to the side, or backward, the low handrails of traditional platform ladders are insufficient to provide effective support and cannot support or prevent the user's center of gravity from shifting. This can easily lead to imbalance, slippage, or even tipping over, posing a significant safety hazard. This problem is particularly pronounced for taller users. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a platform ladder that improves user safety and operational comfort.

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows: A safety-protected high handrail platform ladder includes a front ladder frame, a rear ladder frame, connecting lugs, and a platform. The front ladder frame is provided with treads at intervals, and the rear ladder frame is provided with support shafts at intervals. The front and rear ladder frames are connected by the connecting lugs, allowing the front and rear ladder frames to unfold or fold together. One side of the platform is hinged to the front ladder frame. When the front and rear ladder frames are unfolded, the other side of the platform rests against the corresponding support shaft, so that the platform forms a step panel. The distance between the step panel and the top of the front ladder frame is 1 meter. It also includes a handrail component, which is disposed on the front ladder frame and located above the foot panel.

[0008] By setting the distance between the foot panel and the top of the front ladder frame to 1 meter and installing a handrail above it, the height of the handrail is more aligned with the user's center of gravity when the user is standing, providing reliable support when the body's center of gravity shifts, and significantly improving safety protection.

[0009] The objective of this utility model can also be achieved by the following technical measures: Furthermore, the height of the handrail component is 1 meter.

[0010] By designing the handrail components to a height of 1 meter, the proportional relationship between the handrail and the human body is further optimized, allowing users to naturally grip the handrail for support whether standing still or performing upper limb operations, thereby improving safety and comfort. This height not only meets ergonomic requirements but also prevents the risk of falls caused by handrails that are too low.

[0011] Furthermore, the handrail component includes a left handrail and a right handrail. The left handrail is disposed on the front ladder frame and located to the left of the tread, and the right handrail is disposed on the front ladder frame and located to the right of the tread. A working area is formed between the left handrail and the right handrail.

[0012] The handrail components include a left handrail and a right handrail, respectively located on both sides of the front ladder frame, forming a working area in the middle. This allows users to grip the handrails with both hands while climbing or standing, providing more stable support and balance. This structure ensures safety during climbing while providing ample working space above the platform, facilitating operations such as lifting, lifting, or installation. It enhances work comfort and flexibility, reducing inconvenience and safety risks caused by limited space.

[0013] Furthermore, the left handrail is tilted 25° to the left and the right handrail is tilted 25° to the right.

[0014] The left handrail is tilted 25° to the left, and the right handrail is tilted 25° to the right. This design increases the distance between the upper ends of the handrails, significantly expanding the effective space at the top of the platform and the working area. The tilted structure not only allows users to swing their arms more naturally when climbing or standing, reducing interference with the handrails, but also improves user comfort and operational freedom. At the same time, this structure optimizes the overall proportions, giving the platform ladder better ergonomics and safety while maintaining stable support.

[0015] Furthermore, the left handrail includes a U-shaped portion, a grip portion, and a connecting portion. One end of the grip portion is connected to one end of the U-shaped portion, the other end of the grip portion is connected to the upper end of the connecting portion, the other end of the U-shaped portion is connected to the front ladder frame, and the lower end of the connecting portion is connected to the front ladder frame. The left handrail and the right handrail have the same structure.

[0016] By designing the handrail with a structure that includes a U-shaped section, a grip section, and a connecting section, the handrail achieves a balance between support strength and grip comfort in terms of appearance. The U-shaped section provides stable top support, the grip section offers a natural grip position, and the connecting section ensures a secure connection with the front ladder frame, thereby improving the overall rigidity and safety of the ladder.

[0017] Furthermore, the grip portion of the left armrest is tilted 25° to the left, and the connecting portion is tilted forward; the grip portion of the right armrest is tilted 25° to the right, and the connecting portion is tilted forward.

[0018] By tilting the grip parts of the left and right armrests 25° to the sides and the connecting parts forward, the design not only conforms to the natural outward extension angle of the human arm, but also makes the grip more comfortable.

[0019] Furthermore, the U-shaped portion, the gripping portion, and the connecting portion are integrally formed.

[0020] By molding the U-shaped part, gripping part, and connecting part into one piece, the number of connection points and welding areas is reduced, avoiding safety hazards caused by loose connections during long-term use. This integrated structure improves overall strength and durability, simplifies the manufacturing process, and results in a more concise and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

[0021] Furthermore, it also includes a toolbox, which is positioned on top of the front ladder frame.

[0022] By adding a toolbox to the top of the front ladder frame, users can easily store or access tools, parts, and small items while working at height, reducing the frequency of climbing up and down the ladder and improving work efficiency. At the same time, the toolbox also helps to strengthen the rigidity of the top structure.

[0023] Furthermore, casters are provided on the side wall at the foot of the rear ladder frame.

[0024] Casters are installed at the rear ladder frame feet, allowing the platform ladder to be pushed and pulled directly after folding, which significantly improves the convenience of handling and storage, reduces the burden of manual lifting, and is especially suitable for factories, shopping malls and other workplaces that require frequent movement.

[0025] Furthermore, the foot panel is provided with side panels on the left, rear and right sides.

[0026] The installation of edge panels can form a partially enclosed protective structure around the platform, which can effectively prevent users from falling off the platform edge due to body shift, foot slip, or objects rolling during operation, thereby significantly improving safety and providing better overall safety protection.

[0027] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This invention sets the distance between the foot panel and the top of the front ladder frame to 1 meter, and also designs the handrail component to be 1 meter high, so that the handrail height matches the center of gravity position and the natural placement height of the upper limbs when the user is standing. This design is more ergonomic and can provide effective support when the user's center of gravity shifts, preventing falls and significantly improving work safety.

[0028] In this invention, the left handrail is tilted 25° to the left and the right handrail is tilted 25° to the right. This design increases the distance between the upper ends of the handrails, significantly expanding the effective space at the top of the platform and the working area. The tilted structure not only allows users to swing their arms more naturally when climbing or standing, reducing interference with the handrails, but also improves user comfort and operational freedom. Simultaneously, this structure optimizes the overall proportions, enabling the platform ladder to maintain stable support while possessing better ergonomics and safety. Attached Figure Description
