Abstract
The present invention relates to a device for personal protection at such scaffolds that consist of scaffold posts (5, 6) and lying scaffold elements (7, 8, 15), coupled between the posts. The protective device consists of two protective post (26, 27) and a protective rail (32) with a variable length that extends between the protective posts. The protective rail is equipped with joint devices in their ends for a joined connection between the protective posts. The protective posts are equipped with coupling devices (28-31) for releasable connection with the scaffold. Thus the protective posts and the associated protective rail may gradually be moved between different vertical positions due to the need for protection.
Claims10
Device for personal protection at such scaffolds that consist of scaffold posts (3, 4, 5, 6) and lying scaffold elements (7, 8, 15, 71, 72), arranged to be coupled between the posts, where the protective device at least consists of two protective posts (26, 27) and at least one protective rail (32) which extends between the protective posts and which can be changed between different lengths, that the protective rail is equipped with at least one joint device (49-52) for pivotal connection to the protective posts, that each post is equipped with at least one coupling device (28-31) for releasable connection with the scaffold, where said protective posts and the associated protective rail gradually may be moved between different vertical positions according to the need for protection, where the protective devices (1) comprise maneuvering means (43-46) for shifting the coupling devices (28-31) between a releasing position and a coupling position, characterized in that said maneuvering means (43-46) are arranged in at least one end of said protective posts (26, 27).
