Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a step fixing device for a truck bed, which is used to fix a step to a truck bed when loading and unloading luggage and various materials (hereinafter referred to as "luggage, etc.") onto the truck bed, and a truck bed step with fixing device to which this fixing device is attached. [Background technology]
[0002] Scaffolding used in construction work is assembled from various components such as steel pipe posts, treads (antrails, scaffolding boards) that serve as the work floor, brackets for attaching scaffolding materials (horizontal members, vertical members, diagonal members, etc.) to the posts, handrails, ladders (stairs), braces, jacks, etc. (hereinafter referred to as "scaffolding components"). Then, the number of scaffolding members required to erect the scaffolding to be used in the construction work is loaded onto the bed of a truck and transported from the scaffolding member storage area to the construction site. In this case, steps, ladders, etc. are used to load and unload the scaffolding members onto the truck bed, and various proposals have been made from the standpoints of ease of fixing steps, ladders, etc. to the truck bed, ease of working using steps, ladders, etc., safety, etc.
[0003] For example, Patent Document 1 (JP Patent Publication No. 6-173561) discloses a device for lifting up and down to a truck bed, in which main reinforcement 9 is stretched between two support ribs 5 to form an H-shaped framework, with hooks 6 attached to the upper ends and brackets 10 protruding from the lower ends of both support ribs 5, with a step 3 attached to a pivot 11 installed between both brackets 10, 10 so as to be freely rotatable in the vertical direction, and a stopper 7 is provided so as to be able to abut against the support ribs 5, so as to hold the step 3 in a horizontally protruding position. The step 4 is removably hooked between a fallen side wall panel 2 and the bed 1 and attached along the side wall panel 2. However, the main reinforcement 9, bracket 10, and step 3 used in the platform 4 of Patent Document 1 are not scaffolding components. Therefore, when using the lifting device of Patent Document 1 to load and unload scaffolding members onto the bed of a truck, there is a problem that a lifting device assembled from dedicated members other than the scaffolding members is required.
[0004] In addition, Patent Document 2 (JP Patent Publication 7-202186A) discloses a step device for the bed of a truck, which comprises a first support member 2 made of a plate material with an L-shaped cross section, having a bent portion 3 formed at one end 2A and a first step plate 4 rotatably attached to the other side 2B via a first hinge 4A, and a second support member 5 having a second step plate 7 rotatably attached via a second hinge 5B and slidably attached to the first support member 2, in which the bent portion 3 of the first support member 2 is inserted into a plurality of engagement holes 1 provided at the lower end 106A of a side gate 106 of the bed 103. However, the first step plate 4, second support member 5, and second step plate 7 used to assemble the step device for the truck bed of Patent Document 2 are not scaffolding members, and there is a problem that when using the step device of Patent Document 2 to load and unload the scaffolding members onto the truck bed, a step device assembled from dedicated members other than the scaffolding members is required.
[0005] Furthermore, Patent Document 3 (JP 2019-1222 A) discloses a truck boarding and alighting step in which multiple upper and lower step boards are foldably connected to a square frame via a pair of left and right parallel link mechanisms, and a pair of left and right hooks are attached to the upper horizontal part of the frame to fit into the gap between the floor board of the truck and the open tailgate, in which each of the vertical movable links that constitute the parallel link mechanisms and are arranged parallel to the vertical part of the frame each extend above the topmost step board, and a handrail bar can be removably attached to the upper extension part of each of the vertical movable links. However, in the truck boarding and alighting step in Patent Document 3, although vertical members of scaffolding components can be used for the handrail bars, scaffolding components cannot be used for the square frame or parallel link mechanism, and the steps connected to the square frame are attached integrally with each other by multiple screws and fixing rivets to the upper surface of each curved corner part of each step mounting body, which is a pipe with a circular cross section bent into a U-shape, so that the steps (antis, scaffolding boards) of scaffolding components cannot be used. Therefore, even when using the truck boarding and alighting step of Patent Document 3 to load and unload scaffolding members onto the bed of a truck, there is a problem that boarding and alighting steps are required in which most of the components are assembled from dedicated components other than the scaffolding components.

The channel member 22 serves as the carrier engaging portion of the present invention, and is attached to the upper end rear side of the base piece 21a of the angle member 21 by welding or the like. The depth (length in the Y direction) of the U-shaped inner part of the channel material 22 is slightly (a few mm or less) larger than the thickness of the side panel 42 of the truck bed 40. The upper L-shaped metal fitting 23 is the first mating support part of the present invention, and is an L-shaped plate that protrudes toward the front side, consisting of a fixed piece 23a extending in the Y direction and an upright piece 23b that is continuous with the fixed piece 23a and extends in the Z direction. The lower L-shaped metal fitting 24 is the second mating support part of the present invention and has the same structure as the upper L-shaped metal fitting 23. It consists of a fixed piece 24a extending in the Y direction and an upright piece 24b that is continuous with the fixed piece 24a and extends in the Z direction, and is an L-shaped plate that protrudes toward the front side. Then, the upper L-shaped bracket 23 is attached by welding or the like to the front upper part of the angle iron 21 at a first position P1 (position in the Z direction) such that the upper end of the upright piece 23b is at the same height as the upper end of the angle iron 21 (at this time, the back surface of the fixed piece 23a is abutted against the front upper part of the base piece 21a, the right side surface of the fixed piece 23a is abutted against the upper left side surface of the protruding piece 21b, and the center in the Z direction of the back surface of the fixed piece 23a becomes the first position P1), and the lower L-shaped bracket 24 is attached by welding or the like to the front lower part of the angle iron 21 at a second position P2 (position in the Z direction) such that the lower end of the fixed piece 24a is at the same height as the lower end of the angle iron 21 (at this time, the back surface of the fixed piece 24a is abutted against the front lower part of the base piece 21a, the right side surface of the fixed piece 24a is abutted against the lower left side surface of the protruding piece 21b, and the center in the Z direction of the back surface of the fixed piece 24a becomes the second position P2). In this case, the distance between the first position P1 and the second position P2 (the distance between the upper L-shaped metal fitting 23 and the lower L-shaped metal fitting 24) is the same as the distance between the upper pocket metal fitting portion 11b and the lower pocket metal fitting portion 11c of the support 11 to which the step fixing device 20 is attached.

In this case, the attachment position of the channel material 32 to the angle material 31 is the same as the attachment position of the channel material 22 to the angle material 21. In addition, the first position Q1 (position in the Z direction) at which the upper L-shaped bracket 33 is attached to the angle iron 31 is the same as the first position P1 at which the upper L-shaped bracket 23 is attached to the angle iron 21, and the second position Q2 (position in the Z direction) at which the lower L-shaped bracket 34 is attached to the angle iron 31 is the same as the second position P2 at which the lower L-shaped bracket 24 is attached to the angle iron 31. In addition, the mounting positions of the channel materials 22, 32 in the step fixing devices 20, 30, the first positions P1, Q1 for mounting the upper L-shaped brackets 23, 33, and the second positions P2, Q2 for mounting the lower L-shaped brackets 24, 34 are not limited to the above positions, but are appropriately selected depending on the height of the loading platform 40 (floor 41, tailgate 42 in the folded down state) to which the step fixing devices 20, 30 are attached, etc. Specifically, the position of the channel members 22, 32 may be a position below the upper end of the angle members 21, 31 if they are at the upper part of the angle members 21, 31 (for example, the position of the channel members 22, 32 may be the same as the position of the fixing pieces 23a, 24a of the upper L-shaped brackets 23, 33), the first positions P1, Q1 may be a position where the upper ends of the upright pieces 23b, 33b are below or above the upper ends of the angle members 21, 31 if they are at the upper part of the angle members 21, 31, and the second positions P2, Q2 may be a position where the lower end of the fixing piece 24a is above the lower end of the angle member 21 if they are at the lower part of the angle members 21, 31.
