Abstract
A scaffolding assembly adapted to be releasably attached to an elongate support member such as an overhead pipe. The scaffolding assembly has a split collar and a platform assembly adapted to be releasably attached to the split collar. The split collar comprises at least two segments which can encircle the pipe and be secured to one another. The platform assembly which includes a platform deck has a connector formation which extends laterally outwardly from the deck to an extent that it can engage a receiving formation on the collar assembly and thereby attach the platform assembly to the collar assembly.
Claims11
A scaffolding assembly suspendable from an elongate support comprising:
- a first split collar adapted to be attached in surrounding relationship to said support at a first location;
- a second split collar adapted to be attached in surrounding relationship to said support at a second location axially spaced from said first location;
- a first platform;
- a first yoke section having a lower end and an upper arced portion;
- a second yoke section having a lower end and an upper arced portion, said lower ends of said first and second yoke sections being connectable to said first platform at axially spaced locations;
- a second platform;
- a third yoke section having a lower end and an upper arced portion;
- a fourth yoke section having a lower end and an upper arced portion, said lower ends of said third and fourth yoke sections being connectable to said second platform at axially spaced locations;
- said upper arced portions of said first and second yoke sections being releasably connectable to the upper arced portions of said third and fourth yoke sections, respectively, when the upper arced portions of said first and third yoke sections and the upper arced portions of said second and fourth yoke sections are received on said first and second split collars, respectively, whereby projecting formations on said first and third yoke sections are received in receiving formations on said first split collar, and projecting formations on said second and fourth yoke sections are received in receiving formations on said second split collar.
