  • Patent number: 11821262
    Abstract: A lifting positioning structure for a ladder tool platform comprises a ladder. The ladder comprises front supporting legs, rear supporting legs, connectors fixedly connected to the front supporting legs, plug pins, and elastic parts, wherein each front supporting leg includes a big tube and a small tube which are able to relatively move in an extension direction. The connectors are formed with vertically-through installation cavities which allow the big tubes to be inserted therein. The big tubes are arranged in the installation cavities and are fixedly connected to the connectors which extend to form connection parts rotationally connected to the rear supporting legs. The small tubes are connected to a tool platform. The plug pins are movably arranged on the connectors or the big tubes.

  • Patent number: 11732530
    Abstract: Various embodiments of ladders and ladder components are provided. In one embodiment, a ladder includes a first rail, a second rail spaced apart from the first rail, and a plurality of rungs extending between and coupled to the first rail and the second rail. A walkthrough device may include a first component having a sleeve coupled to the first rail and a pole a pole slidably coupled to the sleeve between at least two positions including a retracted position and an extended position. In some embodiments, the sleeve may be fixedly coupled with the first rail and intended to remain attached (e.g., not intended for removal by a user). In another embodiment, the first component may be removably attached to the first rail so that a user may utilize and employ the device, and subsequently remove it, as desired.

  • Patent number: 11492847
    Abstract: A collapsible ladder that collapse not only the rails but also the steps, as well as the top caps, so that the ladder may be erected and then collapsed flat, saving storage space. The ladder has a pair of right siderails rotatably connected to a pair of left siderails. The right top cap and the right steps are rotatably attached in between the pair of right siderails. The right top cap and the right steps are also rotatably attached in between the pair of right linking rails. Likewise, the ladder also has a pair of left siderails rotatably connected to a pair of left siderails. The left top cap and the left steps are rotatably attached in between the pair of left siderails. The left top cap and the left steps are also rotatably attached in between the pair of left linking rails. Because the siderails, the steps, the linking rails are all rotatably attached to form the ladder, the ladder may be open and erected and also may be folded and collapsed to save space for storage and for carrying.

  • Patent number: 5287946
    Abstract: A child's portable climbing apparatus is disclosed, having first and second climbing members. The first and second climbing members each have spaced, opposing parallel support beams and spaced, horizontal climbing bars secured to the opposing parallel support beams. The first and second climbing members are pivotally joined by a top horizontal climbing bar secured to the beams at a location offset from the longitudinal centerline, to enable the first and second climbing members to be folded into parallel alignment for ease of transportation and storage. At least one safety bar is removably secured between a selected climbing bar on the first climbing member, and a selected climbing bar on the second climbing member to adjustably position and releasably secure the climbing apparatus in a variety of heights and angular climbing positions. A safety catch is preferably used to secure the safety bar during use.
