BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to new and useful improvements in travelling scaffolds used primarily for maintenance in buildings or the like although, of course, the device can be used for other purposes.
Such scaffolds are usually manually operated or hydraulically operated due to the fact that electrically operated scaffolds normally require a relatively heavy duty electric motor which makes the cost excessive apart from the fact that heavy duty motors of relatively large horsepower cannot be operated from conventional power outlets.
The reason for the requirement of heavy duty or large horsepower motors is due to the fact that such motors are usually stationary and transmit power to the platform or hoist cage either through chain and sprocket or cable so that when the platform or cage is the farthest distance from the electric motor, there are relatively large transmission losses due to friction, the weight of the cables and chains, and lack of mechanical advantage.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present device overcomes all of these disadvantages by providing a portable or movable maintenance scaffold having a cage or platform which moves vertically up and down the supporting structure and is provided with an electric motor which is secured to the cage or platform rather than the stationary scaffold.
By utilizing a chain and sprocket system in conjunction with a reduction gear box, it has been found that a one-fourth horsepower motor is adequate for normal operation due to the fact that the friction and other losses are constant throughout the entire length of travel of the cage or platform.
This enables a relatively light weight portable and economical maintenance scaffold to be provided which is entirely adequate for the majority of maintenance problems encountered in most buildings.
With the foregoing objects in view, and such other or further purposes, advantages or novel features as may become apparent from consideration of this disclosure and specification, the present invention consists of the inventive concept which is comprised, embodied, embraced, or included in the means, method, process, product, construction, composition, arrangement of parts, or new use of any of the foregoing, herein exemplified in one or more specific embodiments of such concept, reference being had to the accompanying drawings in which:
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a front elevation of the device.
FIG. 2 is a side elevation thereof.
FIG. 3 is a plan view of the platform.
FIG. 4 is a plan view of the base per se.
FIG. 5 is an enlarged section of the drive mechanism for the carriage or platform substantially along the line 5-5 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 6 is an enlarged fragmentary section along the line 6-6 of FIG. 2.
In the drawings like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the different figures.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION Proceeding therefore to describe the invention in detail, reference character 10 illustrates the base which consists of two longitudinal members 11 in spaced and parallel relationship and maintained thereby a pair of transverse members 12 extending therebetween and intermediate the ends as clearly shown in FIG. 4.
Extending upwardly from the transverse members 12 adjacent one member 1 1 is a vertical framework collectively designated 14 which consists of four angle irons 15, 15A, braced by vertically lying diagonal braces 16 and horizontally extending braces 17 and 17A.
This structure forms a three sided, vertically extending framework with the open side facing inwardly of the base and towards the other member 11.
Reference should be made to the angle irons specifically designated 15A, the flanges of which face inwardly towards one another as clearly shown in FIG. 4.
A cage or platform collectively designated 18 includes a rectangular floor 19 and vertical guard structure 20 braced by diagonals 21 and horizontal members 22 thus forming a three sided wall structure. A safety chain 23 extends between two of the vertical members and provides access to the cage for the operator.
A lower pair of guide rollers 24 are journalled for rotation within the lower ends of a pair of spaced and parallel vertical members 24A which extend from the upper side to the lower side of the cage frame and on the inner wall 248 thereof. These members have a channel configuration when viewed in plan as seen in FIG. 6. These guide rollers 24 engage and bear against the outer surfaces 158 of the flanges of the angle irons 15A.
An upper pair of guide rollers 25 are journalled for rotation within the upper ends of members 24A and these guide rollers engage and bear against the innerv surfaces 15C of the flanges of the angle irons 15A so that the cage is mounted for vertical reciprocation up and down the angle iron members 15A and is supported in a cantilever fashion therefrom (see FIGS. 4, 5 and 6).
A conventional U-shaped safety brake assembly 26 cooperates between the flanges of the angle irons 15A and the cage if the drive chain breaks but as this is conventional in structure and operation, it is not deemed necessary to describe same in detail.
FIG. 5 shows details of the drive mechanism which consists of a source of power taking the form of an electric motor 27 bolted to an angle iron 28 which in turn is secured to and assists in supporting the floor 19 of the cage so that the electric motor is suspended below the cage as clearly shown.
A coupling 28' connects drive shaft 29 to input shaft 30 of a reduction gear box 31 also supported to member 28 below the floor 19 of the'cage.
An output or drive shaft 32 extends from the reduction gear box at right angles to the shaft 30 and is provided with a chain sprocket 33 secured thereto and rotatable therewith.
An idler sprocket 34 is joumalled upon a spindle 35 which in turn is secured to a downwardly extending support member 36 also depending from the underside of the cage 18.
Adjacent the upper end of the vertical scaffold or structure 14, is a further idler sprocket 37 journalled upon a spindle 38 which is preferably provided with a roller bearing (not illustrated). Reference to FIGS. 1 and 2 show the position of this upper idler sprocket 37.
A chain 39 extends around the sprockets and one end 40 of this chain is anchored by means of clamp assembly 41 to the inner end of member 28, that is to the inner lower side of the cage 18 as shown in FIG. 5. The chain then extends upwardly and over the upper idler sprocket 37 and then downwardly and around the lower idler sprocket 34. It then extends upwardly and around the drive sprocket 33 and the free end or looped portion 39A of the chain extends downwardly and then upwardly to be secured by end 42 to the underside of the cage as shown in FIG. 5.
An arcuately curved guide 43 extends around part of the periphery of the drive sprocket 33 in order to maintain the chain 39 in contact with the drive sprocket and an angulated guide 44 is situated below drive sprocket 33 and maintains the desired separation between the substantially vertical runs of the chain upon each side thereof and prevents then wrapping around the drive sprocket.
In operation, the electric motor is controlled by means of a switch assembly 45 within the cage. The motor is of course reversible and when it is operated to rotate drive sprocket 33 in the direction of arrow 46 (see FIG. the cage will be moved upwardly with the excess chain forming a loop at 39A, until the cage reaches the uppermost limits of the scaffold or vertical structure 14.
By reversing the motor, the cage is lowered under power as desired.
Because the electric motor is always travelling with the cage, frictional losses are the same at either end of the travel and the mechanical advantage is also constant.
it will, of course, be appreciated than an electric cable 47 extends freely from the electric motor to a convenient electrical plug and that the length of this cable is sufficient for same to be connected to the plug when the cage is at the uppermost position.
However, the fact that a fractional horsepower motor is used, means that a relatively lightweight cable is required so that even when fully extended, the weight thereof is slight.
Various modifications may be constructed or performed within the scope of the inventive concept disclosed. Therefore what has been set forth is intended to illustrate such concept and is not for the purpose of limiting protection to any herein particularly described embodiment thereof.
