Definitions
- the present invention is related to the field of fixed constructions of doors, windows, shutters or rolling metal curtains and in general of stairs, whose constituent parts, support pieces or accessories, fulfill the function of fixing devices or hooks for the elements. of the extendable stairs.
- An adaptable safety device for stairs has been created, characterized in that it comprises: A clamp (1), a tension rope (2), a pulley support-type mechanism (3); a winch system (4).
- the clamp (1) is specially designed to adapt to any post and is preferably manufactured based on reinforced plastics and certain metals to obtain dielectric strength, flexural strength and tensile strength strength in an optimal way.
- the rope fulfills two functions, that of tensioning the clamp (through the fastening system) to guarantee correct fixation to the post and that of serving as a lifeline once the entire system has been installed.
- the winch system which is installed at the base of the ladder, is responsible for collecting the rope to ensure that the clamp clings to the post and guarantees, through a manual safety, that the rope only unwinds when the operator determines it. .
- the whole set makes it possible to dispense with the securing of the ladder to the post by ropes, since the ladder remains completely securely attached to the structure.
- the efficient technical configuration of the invention in its operation, eliminates the adverse effects (deficiencies, limitations) presented by the current devices included in the state of the art, also making it possible to safely ascend and descend stairs, thus increasing the conditions of security compared to traditional devices; additionally it provides a reduction in the times of installation and fixing of ladders to posts or other surfaces compared to conventional ladder securing systems.
- FIGURE 1 An overview of the preferred application of the Adaptive Ladder Safety Attachment installed on an extendable ladder. Where the clamp (1), a clamp (1), a tension rope (2), a support type mechanism for pulley (3) is observed; a winch system (4), installed on a ladder (6).
- FIGURE 2 General view of the clamp (1), where the two arms (1 A) with a V shape are observed, the upper section of each arm (1AA); the lower section of each arm (1AB) the cylinders (1AC) that connect said sections and the arm fixing mechanism (5); the cylinder lining (1AD) and the clamp fixing mechanism (1 C), the pulley support type mechanism (3).
- FIGURE 3 View of the winch system where the reel (4A) is observed; the flange (4B), the perforations of said flange (4BA); the locking system (4C), the flange (4D) and the gear system connected to said flange (4D).
- FIGURE 4 Dynamics of movement of the gripper. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
- Figure 1 an adaptable safety device for preferably extension ladders is proposed (Figure 1), which can be used in single-body ladders for work at heights, among others. , which is characterized by comprising:
- the gripper (1) ( Figure 2) is preferably made up of two arms (1 A) with a preferably V shape, and where each arm (1 A) is made up of an upper section (1AA), a lower section (1AB ) connected by cylinders (1AC) by means of an arm fixing mechanism (5); where the lower section (1AB)
- the tension rope (2) which acts as a lifeline, is connected to the winch system (4) at one of its ends and at its other end it is attached to the clamp (1) through the support-type mechanism for pulley (3).
- the pulley support type mechanism (3) preferably metallic, is attached to the coupling base (1B) and allows the interaction of the rope (2), the clamp (1) and the winch system (4).
- the winch system (4) ( Figure 3) is made up of a reel (4A) with ridges in the form of preferably metallic discs; where one of its edges (4B) has a series of perforations in its body (4BA) designed to be crossed by a locking system (4C), preferably bolt type, to immobilize the reel and keep the tension rope (2) fixed and insured; and where another of the flanges (4D) is connected to a gear system (4E) made up of at least 2 sprockets and a lever designed to tension and release the rope (2).
- a preferred embodiment of the inventive concept involves the installation of the clamp (1) in the upper part of a ladder (6), which fulfills the function of hugging the post and fully securing the assembly.
- the tension rope (2) which, being connected to the clamp (1) and the winch system (4), fulfills two functions, namely; the first is to serve as an instrument to close and secure the clamp to the post from the bottom of a ladder (6) through the winch system (4). (FIG. 2); and the second function is to serve as a lifeline to the operators during the ascent and descent through the ladder (6), offering greater safety and stability conditions.
- the winch system (4) allows to collect the rope (2) to make the clamp (1) cling to the post; it is preferably located at the bottom of the ladder (6) and from there the required tension is applied to the rope (2) so that the clamp opens and closes, securing itself to the post ( Figure 4); likewise, this system has a locking mechanism (4C) to prevent the ladder from destabilizing in the event of any eventuality.
- the clamp (1) specially designed to adapt to any post and is manufactured, in a preferred embodiment, of reinforced plastics and certain metals to obtain dielectric strength, flexural strength stiffness and tensile strength stiffness in an optimal way.
- the Ladder Safety Device allows you to dispense with the securing of the ladder to the post by ropes, since due to its special configuration the ladder remains completely securely attached to the structure.
- the efficient technical configuration of the invention in its operation, eliminates the adverse effects (deficiencies, limitations) presented by the current devices included in the state of the art, also allowing safe ascent and descent, thus raising the safety conditions with respect to traditional methods; additionally it provides a reduction in installation times compared to conventional ladders to poles using ropes.
