Description

  The present invention relates to a foldable scaffolding handrail used for constructing a scaffold for various construction and civil engineering work.

  In general, for this type of frame scaffolding, the required number of buildings are erected at predetermined intervals and connected with crossed bars, and the scaffolding plates are erected between adjacent buildings in sequence. It is assumed that scaffolding members such as handrails and stairs are attached at predetermined locations.

  By the way, as a foldable handrail which comprises the said frame assembly scaffold, as disclosed by Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 2004-285791 (patent document 1), a pair of handrail pillars with the required height are provided, for example. A pair of upper and lower horizontal rails are pivotally mounted between the upper and lower horizontal rails, and a connecting member is pivotally mounted between the upper and lower horizontal rails. A plate-shaped holding member having a notch-shaped holding hole to be held by the pedestal, and a wedge-type member fixed to the lower pedestal to be wedged by the built-up pedestal. It has been known.

The pedestal position where a plurality of cross braces interfere and interfere with each other must be wedged. As a result, the wedged work is very troublesome and time-consuming, and the work efficiency is poor.
Second, since the wedge member is fixedly attached to the lower end portion of the handrail column as described above, it is difficult to avoid the interference of the complicated cross bars, and the wedge operation is very troublesome and troublesome. It takes.
Thirdly, since the holding member can be held by inserting the pedestal into the circular holding hole, it can be securely held by the pedestal, but the holding work is very troublesome. In addition to being troublesome, there is a risk that it may be difficult to hold when there is a deviation or a dimensional error between adjacent pedestals.
Fourthly, in the conventional example, the middle part of the handrail pillar is held by the holding member and the lower end is only wedged by the wedge member. In addition to the fact that the pair of upper and lower horizontal rails are pivotably mounted, the upper end of the handrail column is not easily rattled, but it is also very unstable due to rolling or the like. For this reason, a cross brace must be separately attached, and not only the attachment work is very troublesome as a whole, but also the work efficiency is poor.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a handrail for a scaffolding frame having a substantially rectangular frame shape, and 2 and 3 are metal pipes on both sides constituting the handrail The long handrail pillar and the short handrail pillar 4, 4 are pivoted in the form of a bridge via attachment members 6 respectively at the upper end and the middle of the long handrail pillar 2 and the short handrail pillar 3 on both sides. The upper and lower horizontal rails 7 and 7 are bolt-type pivot pins for pivotally mounting the upper and lower horizontal rails 4 and 5 to the mounting member 6, respectively. As shown in FIG. 3, the both ends of the crosspieces 4 and 5 can be folded substantially linearly as shown in FIG. 8 is a fixed wedge member fixed outwardly to the lower end of the long handrail column 2 so as to be wedged on a leg column 25 of a building 24 to be described later, and 9 is positioned in a stepped manner with the fixed wedge member 8. A movable wedge attachment member 11 is rotatably attached to the lower end of the short handrail column 3 via a cylindrical attachment member 10 to cause the lower end of the short handrail column 3 to prevent the attachment member 10 from being pulled out. A pair of upper and lower plate-like engagement pieces each having a retaining pillar 14 for a pedestal at its front end. 13, a generally U-shaped gripping piece 15 attached to the upper and lower engaging pieces 13 so as to project outwardly so as to be positioned on the same vertical line as the engaging recess 14, It comprises a wedge 17 that can be inserted into the formed wedge hole 16. 18 is a substantially hook shape that is attached outwardly at the same level from the lower ends of the long handrail column 2 and the short handrail column 3 so as to be positioned slightly above the fixed / movable wedge members 8 and 9. It is a latching member. Reference numeral 19 denotes a locking member having a substantially U-shaped cross section attached to the upper ends of the long handrail column 2 and the short handrail column 3 to be pressed and locked to a leg column 25 of a building 24 described later. Each of the locking members 19 is formed with a curved pedestal locking recess 20 at the tip thereof, and a slotted pin hole 21 is formed on both sides of the base portion. The handrail pillar 2 and the short handrail pillar 3 are pivotally attached to the handrail pillar 2 and the short handrail pillar 3 with bolts 22 and nuts 23. In addition, 24 is a torii-shaped building that forms a frame scaffold, 25 is a pair of metal pipe pedestals on both sides constituting the frame 24, and 26 is a horizontal mount attached between the pedestals 25 in a erected manner. It is a material. Reference numeral 27 denotes a crossing bar for connecting the building 24, and 28 denotes a scaffolding plate attached between the building 24 via a grip metal fitting 29.

Next, the attachment state of the handrail 1 configured as described above will be described with reference to FIGS.
First, as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 4, the handrail 1 is folded up and lifted upward while grasping the lower part of the long handrail pillar 2 and the short handrail pillar 3, respectively. The two retaining members 18 are suspended and supported by the horizontal members 26 of the building 24, and are lightly temporarily wedged with the fixed wedge members 8 along the leg columns 25 (FIGS. 5A and 6). reference). That is, the upper and lower engaging pieces 13 and the gripping pieces 15 are engaged with the leg posts 25 in a fitting manner, and the wedges 17 are lightly inserted into the wedge holes 16 of the gripping pieces 15 and temporarily wedged. Next, the upper and lower horizontal rails 4 and 5 are rotated around the pivot pin 7, and the hanging member 18 of the short handrail column 3 is hooked and supported by the horizontal members 26 of the adjacent building 24. Thereafter, the movable wedge member 9 is appropriately rotated through the mounting member 10 so that the upper and lower engaging pieces 13 and the gripping pieces 15 are engaged with the leg posts 25 in a fitting manner, and the wedge pieces 15 are wedged. The wedge 17 is press-fitted into the hole 16 and wedged (see FIGS. 5B to C and FIGS. 7 to 10). At this time, since the movable wedge member 9 is rotatably attached to the lower end of the short handrail column 3 so as to be positioned in a stepped manner with respect to the fixed wedge member 8, it is complicated around the leg column 25 to be wedged. As a result, it is possible to avoid the interference of the cross brace 27 and to wedge it easily and efficiently. When the wedge attachment of the movable wedge member 9 is completed, the wedge 17 of the fixed wedge member 8 is press-fitted into the wedge hole 16 to be wedged (see FIGS. 5D and 11). Next, after attaching the upper-layer scaffolding plate 28, the building 24, and the cross brace 27, the locking members 19 on both sides are erected while extending along the grooved pin holes 21 around the bolts 22. The locking recess 20 is pivotally locked to the upper end of the pedestal 25 and attached to complete the attachment of the handrail 1 (see FIGS. 4, 12, and 13). At this time, the handrail 1 is not only attached at its lower part to the building 24 with the latching member 18 and the fixed / movable wedge members 8 and 9 but also at its upper end with the locking member 19 to be pressed in a pressure-contact manner. Since it is a thing to be damped, it does not require a crossing as in the conventional example, and the handrail 1 does not rattle or roll when used, and is extremely stable. is there.

  On the other hand, when removing the handrail 1 from the building 24, the locking members 19 on both sides are rotated to release the press-contact locking to the pedestal 25, and the upper struts 27 are constructed. 24. After each of the scaffold plates 28 is removed, the wedges 17 of the fixed / movable wedge members 8 and 9 are removed to release the wedges from the pedestal 25. Next, after lifting the short handrail pillar 3 upward to release the latching between the latching member 18 and the horizontal member 26, the upper and lower horizontal rails 4 and 5 are rotated about the pivot pin 7 as a center. Bend in the direction of the long handrail pillar 2. After that, the elongate handrail pillar 2 is lifted upward to release the hooking of the hooking member 18 and the horizontal member 26, and the removal is completed. The removed handrail 1 is stored in a folded state as shown in FIG. 3 and stored.

  In the above embodiment, the fixed hand wedge member 8 is attached to the long handrail column 2, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the movable wedge member having the same configuration as the short handrail column 3 is used. A member may be attached. Further, the structure of the fixed / movable wedge members 8 and 9 is not limited to the embodiment, and other known ones similar to this can be adopted and used.
