Description

    CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS, IF ANY
  • This application claims priority from our Provisional patent application Ser. No. 61/216,558 filed May 19, 2009.
    • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION AND PRIOR ART
  • 1. Field of the Invention
  • Guardrails for aerial work platforms are mandatory for safety and safety standards typically require that the guardrails must resist a 300 lb outward force such that when leaned on, the guardrail prevents a worker from falling and likely serious injury or death. Typically, the guardrails are between 42″ and 45″ above the deck and comprise a number of separate individual sections.
  • Aerial work platforms are moved to and from work positions by extensible booms or scissor lifts which may extend to significant elevations and, when lowered for transport or storage, the work platform may still be high off the ground. Accordingly, there is need to lower the guardrails particularly when the work platform apparatus is loaded on a truck or trailer during transport to minimize the height of the apparatus to safely clear bridges and other obstacles. There is also occasional need to lower the guardrails to gain access into buildings through low doorways.
  • 2. Description of the Related Art
  • Hinged guardrail sections are well known but require the use of removable pins to retain the guardrail sections in both a vertically extending work position and in a horizontally extending storage position. The retainer pins are frequently dropped or lost during transport or work conditions and, for this reason, lanyards or other pin retainers are ordinarily used. Time consuming and tedious removal of the pins is required when raising or lowering the guardrail sections and worker frustration is compounded by having to hold the guardrail section with one arm while installing or removing pins with the other, a particularly difficult task when the machine is positioned on a slope.
    • SUMMARY
  • The system disclosed herein comprises: a work platform having a deck; vertically extending guardrail supports affixed to the deck; and guardrail sections at the periphery of the deck. The guardrail sections have legs receivable in the guardrail supports which may comprise channels having open sides facing the deck. Spaced upper and lower guides not unlike hockey pucks are affixed to the guardrail legs, and the guides are receivable in the guardrail supports and are spaced from each other a length less than the length of the guardrail supports. The guides have contact surfaces engageable with inner surfaces of the guardrail supports. Retainers retain the lower guides in the guardrail supports whereby the guardrail sections may be lifted from operative position to an upper pivot position at which the guardrail sections are retained in the supports by engagement of the lower guides with the retainers. The guardrail sections may be pivoted about the lower guides to a horizontal position for storage.
    • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a rectangular aerial work platform having guardrail sections at its sides and ends showing one section horizontally positioned for storage.
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged partial perspective view of one side of the work platform showing guardrail supports.
  • FIG. 3 is an enlarged horizontal cross section taken at line 3-3 in FIG. 2 showing guardrails in the operative position engaged with the guardrail supports.
  • FIG. 4 is a partial perspective view showing guardrail legs positioned in the guardrail supports.
  • FIG. 5 is a partial perspective view showing guardrails legs lifted partially out of the supports for later folding to a horizontal storage position.
  • FIG. 6 is a partial perspective view showing the guardrail legs folded to a horizontal storage position.
    •  DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
  • As used herein, the terms horizontal and vertical are general expressions not strictly limited to 0° and 90° orientations and relate to the positions occupied when the apparatus is on a generally horizontal surface with the guardrail sections in operative (vertical) position.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an aerial work platform and guardrail system suitable for use with a scissors or boom type lift, not shown. The work platform 10 includes a deck 12. The deck 12 may be supported on a generally rectangular deck frame 14 comprising structural members which, as seen in FIG. 2, have spaced upper and lower inwardly extending horizontal flanges 16, 18 which face the work platform. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, two elongated guardrail sections 20, 22 are used at either long side of the deck 12. One short side of the deck is provided with a single guardrail section 24 and the other short side of the deck of the platform is provided with three separate guardrail sections 26 - 28, the center one 27 of which is an entry section or vertically liftable gate.
  • Each guardrail section has at least two legs 30, 32 and a pair of generally horizontally extending guardrail members 34, 36 extending between the legs. Tubular metal stock is generally used for construction of the guardrail sections and guardrail supports more fully described below. The lower ends of each leg are receivable in generally vertically extending guardrail supports 40 affixed to the deck or deck frame. The supports 40 preferably comprise channel sections having open sides facing the deck 12 of the work platform. The guardrail supports 40 may also be formed of rectangular or square cross-section stock so long as the supports each have a vertically extending opening above and facing the deck.
  • Spaced upper and lower guides 50, 52 are affixed to laterally opposite sides of each of the legs of the guardrail sections and are closely receivable in the guardrail supports 40. The guides have a width or diameter approximately the same as the width of the legs 30, 32 with the lower guides 52 positioned at the lower ends of the legs 30, 32. The guides are vertically spaced from each other a length which is preferably only slightly less than the vertical extent of the guardrail supports 40 so as to provide the greatest stability for the guardrail sections when the sections are positioned in vertically extending operative position. The guides 50, 52 have contact surfaces which are engageable with inner vertically extending surfaces of the guardrail supports 40. The guides are sized such that the peripheral surface of the guides will operatively engage facing inner surfaces (41 in FIG. 3) of the guardrail supports 40 which are generally parallel to the long direction of the deck and the exposed outer side surfaces of the guides may engage inner surfaces of the supports 40 which extend generally parallel to the short direction of the deck. The guides 50 and 52 are preferably hexagonal as seen in FIG. 5 or they may be cylindrical about the size and shape of a hockey puck and are preferably made of a lubricious material such as Nylon.
  • Guide retainers 54, 56, preferably in the form of elongated threaded bolts and fastener nuts, retain the lower ones 52 of the guides in the guardrail supports 40. The retainers are positioned as shown in FIGS. 3 above the lower ones of the guides whereby the guardrail sections may be lifted from the operative generally vertically extending position to an upper pivot position at which the sections are retained in the supports by contact of the lower guides 52 with the retainers 54, 56 and such that the guardrail sections may then be pivoted about the lower guides 52 to a horizontal position for storage. See the arrows in FIGS. 1 and 2 indicating the lifting and pivoting of the guardrail sections to storage position. As seen in FIG. 1, one guardrail section is pivoted to the horizontal position. The upper and lower retainers 50, 52 are preferably rotatably attached by support axles to the legs of the guardrail sections.
  • As described above with reference to FIG. 2, a typical deck frame 14 will include side and end frame members in the form of channel sections each having upper and lower horizontally extending flanges 16, 18 whereby the guardrail supports 40 have their lower ends in contact with and supported on the lower horizontally extending flanges of the deck frame. The upper flanges of the deck frame may be provided with apertures or cutouts to receive the vertically extending guardrail supports 40.
  • The guardrail system disclosed above eliminates the necessity for retention pins and associated lanyards or other retainers to prevent loss of pins for securing the guardrail sections in either vertically extending work or horizontally extending storage positions. Guardrail systems comprised of multiple guardrail sections and supports as disclosed herein can readily be retrofitted to existing work platforms.
  • Those skilled in the art will understand that various modifications of the preferred embodiments shown and described herein can be made without departing from the scope of the invention which is defined by the appended claims.
