Abstract

A protective railing includes a frame, a railing body, a lockset, two fix unit and plural position members. The position members secure the frame to a doorframe or in a passageway. If the railing body is to be opened, a push button on a grip is shifted to move a deadbolt inward to separate from an insert hole of the railing body, and then the grip is pressed down to move up a rack together with a connect tube, with a stop block of the rack and the connect tube separate from between two stoppers of the fix unit, unlocking the lock set to let the railing body opened. To lock the lockset, after the railing body is closed, the push button is shifted outward to move the deadbolt to insert in the insert hole of the raining body, finishing locking process.

Claims

1. A protective railing comprising:

a frame provided with a pivotal base on an upper side, said pivotal base having a pivot, said frame also having a pivot fixed on a lower side rod corresponding to said pivot of the pivotal base;

a railing body positioned in said frame, having a left side rod provided with a shaft hole in an upper end and a lower end and an opening formed at an upper section of a right side, a guide rod fixed in said opening and having an insert hole, a right side rod positioned at the right side and closing said opening, said right side rod being hollow and having a slot in its lower end section;

a lockset fixed on said opening of said railing body;

two fix units fixed on an upper end and a lower end of a vertical support rod positioned at an inner side of said frame; and

,

A plurality of position members fixed at four corners of said frame.

2. The protective railing as claimed in claim 1, wherein said frame is U-shaped.

3. The protective railing as claimed in claim 1, wherein said lockset consists of a left housing, a right housing, a rack, a grip, a push button, a deadbolt, a cover, a connect tube, a spring and a stop block;

said left housing having a sidewise shaft on its inner surface, an elongate aperture in one vertical side;

said right housing having an insert hole corresponding to said sidewise shaft of said left housing, and an elongate aperture formed in a vertical side, screws screwing tightly in said sidewise shaft of said left housing and in said insert hole of said right housing;

said rack having plural teeth on one side surface and a stop block on the other side surface, said stop block extending in said elongate apertures of said left and said right housing;

said grip having a first end positioned in said left and said right housing, said first end of said grip having a shaft hole for said sidewise shaft of said left housing to fit therein and plural teeth formed on an outer surface to engage with said teeth of said rack, said grip further having a slide slot in a center section and a second end formed with a groove to fit with said guide rod of said railing body, a hole formed in the wall defining said groove;

said push button positioned in said slide slot of said grip;
