Definitions

  • the invention relates to a stair system comprising
  • Such a stair system is generally known.
  • the scissor stair is accommodated in the opening of the ceiling in the retracted position thereof, which opening is closed by a cover, so that the scissor stair is not exposed to view and no longer extends into the space below the ceiling.
  • the extended position of the scissor stair access is provided to the stair positioned in the plenum, so that access can be gained to the roof hatch.
  • the stair in the plenum consists of steel steps in the form of brackets, which are fixedly mounted to the walls of the plenum.
  • a drawback of the known stair system is that it does not meet the current (statutory) safety requirements. In practice accidents frequently take place (often resulting in serious physical injury), since the vertically oriented stair in the plenum includes an obtuse angle with the scissor stair and the spacing between adjacent steps of the stair in the plenum is different from the spacing between the steps of the scissor stair.
  • the object of the invention is to improve the prior art, in particular in the sense that a safe stair system is proposed which meets all the applicable safety requirements.
  • the second scissor stair is pivotally connected to a frame of the roof hatch at one end and to the first scissor stair at the other end. It is also possible to use a pivoted connection to a structure surrounding a roof opening instead of a pivoted connection to the frame of the roof hatch.
  • the first scissor stair is pivotally connected to a frame of the opening in the ceiling at its end remote from the floor surface.
  • the first scissor stair can be retracted under spring action.
  • the scissor members of the scissors of the first scissor stair and the second scissor stair are connected by central hinges in the centre and by outer hinges at the outer ends.
  • the angle of inclination of the steps of the first scissor stair and the second scissor stair is adjustable.
  • the first scissor stair and the second scissor stair are made of cast aluminium.
  • said sales are made of a material selected from the group consisting of metal, wood and plastic material.
  • US-A-2050593 discloses a system according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • European patent publication no. 0 633 386 discloses an auto life-saving ladder comprising several single scissor stairs, wherein in case of an emergency each scissor stair is caused to unfold across a floor level of a building.
  • Figure 1 shows a stair system 1 consisting of a first (lower) scissor stair 2 and a second (upper) scissor stair 3, between which steps 6 are mounted.
  • the first scissor stair 2 which is mounted in a ceiling 4 of a building, is built up of two scissors made up of individual scissor members 5, between which steps 6 are mounted.
  • a cover 9 is pivotally connected to the frame 7, by means of which cover the opening 8 can be closed.
  • the other end of the scissor stair 2 remote from the ceiling 4 is supported on a floor surface 10.
  • the individual scissor members are connected by central hinges 11 and outer hinges 12.
  • Two adjacent outer hinges 12 of the two scissors are made up of a half-shaft (not shown), which connects the two scissors and consequently makes it possible to pull the two scissors in and out or, in other words, retract and extend the two scissors, simultaneously.
  • the scissor stair 2 In the extended position, the scissor stair 2 is supported on the floor surface 10 of the building ( figures 1 and 2 ), whilst in the retracted position the scissor stair 2 is accommodated in the opening 8 in the ceiling 4 ( figure 3 ) .
  • the second scissor stair 3 disposed between the ceiling 4 and a roof 13 of the building provided access to a hatch 14 on the roof 13.
  • the second scissor stair 3 likewise consists of two scissors each made up of scissor members 15, whilst steps 16 are mounted therebetween.
  • the second scissor stair 3 is pivotally connected to a frame 17 of the roof hatch 14 at one end (i.e. the end facing towards the roof 13) and to the first scissor stair 2 at the other end (i.e. the end remote from the roof 13).
  • the two scissors of the second stair 3 can be pulled in and out or, in other words, be retracted and extended, between a retracted position ( figure 3 ) and an extended position, in which the second scissor stair and 3 is in line with the first scissor stair 2 ( figures 1 and 2 ).
  • the individual scissor members are connected by central hinges 18 and outer hinges 19, whilst two adjacent outer edges 19 of the two scissors are made up of a half-shaft (not shown), which connects the two scissors and thus makes it possible to pull the two scissors in and out or, in other words, retract and extend the two scissors simultaneously.
  • the scissors of the second scissor stair 3 are in line with the scissors of the first scissor stair 2 in the extended position, with the spacing between adjacent steps of the second scissor stair 3 being equal to the spacing between adjacent steps of the first scissor stair 2.
  • the scissor stairs 2,3 form one scissor stair in their extended positions, in the sense that the two scissor stairs 2,3 do not include an angle (other than 0°) with each other.
  • the second scissor stair 3 connects to the first scissor stair 2 in its extended position, in the sense that the spacing between the lowermost step 16 of the second scissor stair 3 and the uppermost step 6 of the first scissor stair 2 is equal to the spacing between adjacent steps of the respective scissor stairs.
  • the angle of inclination of the steps 6,16 of the first and the second scissor stairs is adjustable.
  • Figure 3 shows the first scissor stair 2 and the second scissor stair 3 in their respective retracted positions.
  • the first scissor stair 2 is accommodated in the opening 8 in the ceiling 4, and that in a horizontal position.
  • the second scissor stair 3 takes up a vertical position when retracted.
  • the first civil stair 2 can be easily retracted under the influence of the action of a spring construction.
