Foot guard device with adjustable height
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of elevators, in particular to a foot guard device with adjustable height.
Background
The GB7588-2003 safety regulations for elevator manufacture and installation require that each car sill be provided with a foot guard having a width equal to the overall net width of the entrance of the corresponding landing. The vertical part of the foot guard plate is downward extended to form an inclined plane, the included angle between the inclined plane and the horizontal plane is larger than 60 degrees, and the projection depth of the inclined plane on the horizontal plane is not smaller than 20mm. The height of the vertical portion of the toe guard should not be less than 0.75m.
The function of the foot guard is to avoid the possibility of personal injury when the car suddenly moves upwards at the flat landing position and the danger of enabling passengers outside the landing door to step into the clearance of the elevator shaft is generated between the car and the landing door sill.
In order to meet the national standard requirements, the pit depth of the elevator is never lower than 0.79m during normal elevator inspection. However, the depth of the elevator shaft in the building is limited by various factors, so that the pit depth requirement cannot be met, particularly, the elevator is additionally installed in an old community, a large number of pipelines are buried underground, the pipe moving process is complicated, and the pit cannot be deep dug to reach the depth of more than 0.79m.
