Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a telescopically extendable and collapsible ladder assembly having at least three ladder sections, each of said ladder sections having two tubular stile members arranged parallel to each other and interconnected at one end by a ladder rung to form a U-shaped ladder section; the stile members of each ladder section being telescopically inserted into the stile members of an adjacent ladder section.
  • the ladder assembly further comprises automatic latch mechanisms for locking the telescopically inserted stile members relative to one another when the ladder sections are extended, the latch mechanisms of each ladder section being associated with one or more actuators for unlocking the stile members in order to allow for collapsing of the ladder assembly.
  • ladder assemblies have become quite popular as portable ladders, such as a straight telescopic ladder or a step ladder, but also for stationary mounting, such as a loft ladder providing access to a loft.
  • the present invention aims to propose measures that allow for improvements. These measures can either be applied alone or in combination. In a most preferred embodiment of the invention all measures are applied in a ladder assembly to obtain an optimum result.
  • a first aspect of the invention relates to the issue of retardation of gravity-induced velocity of one or more sections of the ladder assembly.
  • a telescopic ladder assembly may suffer from the problem of an undesirable velocity of the ladder section or sections in motion, either during collapse (as the ladder sections of straight ladder or stepladder are lowered) and/or during extension (e.g. in a loft ladder arrangement).
  • the first aspect of the invention provides a ladder assembly according to the preamble of claim 1 , which is characterized in that the damper members are friction damper members providing retardation on the basis for surface friction with the inside of the stile member of the adjacent ladder section, and in that the damper members of respective ladder sections provide a differing surface friction resistance in order to compensate for the total weight of the ladder sections to be retarded.
  • the damper members on one ladder section are made from a material having a different modulus of elasticity than the dampers members on another ladder section in order to arrive at different surface friction resistances of these sets of dampers when compared to one another.
  • These materials are preferably plastic materials, most preferably injection-moulded to form the damper members.
  • the damper members are made of a fibre reinforced plastic material, and the difference in modulus of elasticity is obtained by adaptation of the percentage and/or composition of the fibre material.
  • a glass filled composite plastic is used, the lower lying damper members having a higher percentage of glass than damper members of higher located ladder sections.
  • a telescopic ladder assembly e.g. a straight ladder
  • has automatic latch mechanisms e.g. at each end of a rung
  • one or more associated manually operable actuators for unlocking the stile members in order to allow for collapsing of the ladder assembly, wherein these one or more actuators are arranged centrally on a ladder rung (preferably on the front) and are operable simultaneously with a single hand of the user. It has been found that the proposed dampers allow to obtain a very controlled motion of the ladder section upon collapse of the ladder.
  • the user can now operate the one or more actuators simultaneously with one hand and use - at the same time - his other hand to guide the descending ladder section and/or stabilize the ladder during this operation.
  • This allows for safe and _ ladder during collapse, and avoids fast motions and undesirable impacts of the descending ladder sections as can be observed in known telescopic ladders.
  • a second aspect of the present invention relates to a ladder assembly according to the preamble of claim 7.
  • EP 1 402 143 it is disclosed to mount the actuators at the front of the rung and in close proximity to the stile members so that each actuator is manually and individually operable by a user holding his hands around the stile members, in particular around the connectors at the upper end of the stile members.
  • This prior art design thus requires the user to hold both his hands around the ladder stiles during the collapse of the ladder. It is alleged that this design increases safety for the user with regard of a user's hand being seized between two rungs upon collapse of a ladder. Whilst that may be correct from said perspective, this arrangement does not take into account the fact that in many situations the user also needs to stabilize the ladder so it does not sway or hit against something during the collapse.
  • the second aspect of the present invention aims to provide an improved telescopic ladder assembly that allows the user to employ a single hand for actuating the manually operable actuators and use his other hand for other purposes, e.g. grip the ladder at a higher up position to keep it stable and/or guide a ladder section during its descend.
  • the second aspect of the present invention achieves this aim by providing a telescopic ladder assembly according to claim 7, which is characterized in that the actuators are arranged centrally on the front side of the rung so as to be operable simultaneously with a single hand, in that the front wall of the rung has an elongated recessed portion over the length thereof and the actuators being arranged in said recessed portion, each actuator having a rear extension, extending through a slot in said front wall into tte interior of the rung, each of said rear extensions being connected to an operating rod which extends inside said rung to the latch mechanism at the outer end of the rung.
  • the actuators are slidable actuators, sliding within the recessed portion of the front wall.
  • Arranging the, preferably slidable, actuators in the elongated recessed portion has the advantage that the actuators are generally protected from the feet of a person on the ladder, yet can have a suitable thickness to be operated by a single hand, e finger.
  • the slots or single contiguous slot in the front wall are preferably located in the recessed portion of the front wall.
  • the actuators are effectively arranged at a mutual distance of less than 10 centimetres to facilitate single handed operation.
  • the actuators protrude at the front of the rung at most 10 mm from the rung, preferably at most 5 millimetres, more preferably between 1 and 4 millimetres.
  • the location of these actuators in the elongated recessed portion of the front wall provides protection for the actuators.
  • "some forward protrusion" of these centrally located actuators cause the effect that the actuators provide additional grip for a hand grasping around the central portion of the rung. In practice the actuators will fall in the palm of the hand and so provide additional grip.
  • a third aspect of the present invention relates to a ladder assembly according to the preamble of claim 13.
  • each ladder section includes a connector at each end of a rung, the connector having a rung portion connected to the end of the rung and having a front and a rear collar segment, each integral at one end thereof with the rung portion, the two collar segments substantially encircling the stile member, the collar segments having spaced apart opposed ends, a fastener assembly being provided bridging the opposed ends of the collar segments for rigidly coupling the collar segments around the stile member.
  • the opposed ends lie along the longitudinal axis of the rung.
  • the ends have a lateral protruding boss to accommodate the bolt and nut which pull the ends towards one another in order to fix the collar around the stile member.
  • This lateral protruding boss is awkward, in particular in view of storage of the ladder, e.g. in a small cabinet or in a van.
  • WO2007/079379 a different design of connector is shown which has two pieces.
  • the one piece is connected to the rung and includes a half of the collar.
  • the other piece is a collar half, that is fastened by two bolts on the other piece.
  • the dividing plane (where the ends of the collar halves meet) lies at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the rung.
  • This solution is complex and unsatisfactory as two bolts are used to clamp the collar on the stile member.
  • the third aspect of the invention aims to provide a telescopic ladder assembly according to the preamble of claim 13, having an improved design with respect to ladder manufacturing and handling of the ladder.
  • a ladder assembly according to the preamble of claim 13, which is characterized in that the front collar segment extends over angle of between 120 and 150 degrees, more preferably between 130 and 140 degrees, with respect to the longitudinal axis of the rung, whereas the rear collar segment extends over a complementary angle.
  • the outer face of the collar segments at the opposed ends thereof form a substantially triangular protrusion with respect to adjacent portions of the outer face of the collar segments. It is noted that this design can be used advantageously for the telescopic ladders wherein the actuators are located in close proximity to the stile member.
  • a fourth aspect of the invention relates to the design of a rung of a telescopic ladder assembly.
  • the ladder rungs are made from an extruded aluminium tubular profile, the profile including a top wall, a bottom wall, as well as a front and a rear wall extending between the top wall and the bottom wall.
  • a telescopic ladder assembly is provided as in claim 16 with a rung wherein the front wall and the rear wall of the rung each have an elongated recessed portion over the length thereof, the recessed portion having a height of preferably between 15 and 25 millimetres, the recessed portion having a depth of at least 2 millimetres.
  • recessed portions in the front and rear wall give the rung an enhanced stability, allowing in particular the provision of one or more holes or slots in said recessed wall portion in the central region of the rung for the mounting of one or more actuators associated with the iatch mechanisms.
  • the top wall is in cross section upwardly convex, and the bottom wall is in cross section upwardly concave, preferably of substantially identical curvature. It is preferred that the front wall and the rear wall are symmetrical.

  • the ladder 1 further comprises at least two additional ladder sectii ladder sections 3-9. These ladder sections 3-9 each have two tubular stile members arranged parallel to each other and interconnected at the upper end by a ladder rung to form a U-shaped ladder section.
  • the stile members of each ladder section are telescopically inserted into the stile members of a lower and adjacent ladder section.
  • the ladder 1 further comprising automatic latch mechanisms (as will be explained by example in more detail below) for locking the telescopically inserted stile members relative to one another when the ladder sections are extended, the latch mechanisms being associated with actuators for unlocking the stile members in order to allow for collapsing or retracting of the ladder assembly.

  • the rungs 2d-9d are connected to the associated stile members 2a, b via connectors 2f, g cf which preferred embodiments will be illustrated with reference to figures 10a-d.
  • an issue related to telescopic ladders is the velocity of the telescopic section when the ladder is collapsed (or extended when used as a loft ladder or the like).
  • multiple of the ladder sections are preferably provided with damper members that provide retardation of gravity induced velocity of the ladder section upon collapse and/or extension of the ladder section, each damper member being mounted on a stile member so as to engage on the inside of the stile member of the adjacent ladder section.
  • FIG 3 an example is shown of an inventive friction damper member 30 that provides, as only substantial source, the desired retardation on the basis of surface friction with the inside of the stile member of the lower ladder section.
  • the effective weight of the ladder sections to be retarded differs from above to below; it effectively increases in said direction in ladder 1 , as the release and subsequent collapse of a ladder section such as section 3 towards the lower ladder section, such as section 2, brings in motion all ladder section above said section 3 as well. Therefore it is proposed that the damper members 30 of the respective ladder sections provide a differing surface friction resistance in order to compensate for the total weight of the ladde so a greater resistance for a lower section compared to a higher section of the ladder.
  • the damper members that provide a differing surface friction resistance are made of materials, preferably plastic materials, most preferably injection-moulded, having a different modulus of elasticity.

  • rung is considered to be any of the rungs of the ladder 1 of figure 1 , so that reference numeral 2d is used here.
  • the rung 2d is made from an extruded aluminium tubular profile, the profife including a top wall 41, a bottom wall 42, as well as a front wall 43 and a rear wall 44 extending between the top wall and the bottom wall.
  • the front wall 41 here corresponds to the side on which the slidable actuators 10 are mounted. As can be seen in figure 1 the arranged on the front side of the rung.
  • top wall 41 is in cross section upwardly convex, whereas the bottom wall 42 is in cross section upwardly concave.
  • the curvature is identical so that in a design of the ladder wherein the rungs contact one another in collapsed state of the ladder (as is preferred) the top wall and bottom wall are in close contact (see figure 5). This provides stability of the ladder in said collapsed condition and avoids items entering in the space between the rungs.
  • the front wall has an elongated recessed portion 43a extending over the entire length thereof. This recessed portion is offset inwardly with respect to the above and below located edge portions 43b, c of the front wall 43.
