The invention discloses a direction-adjustable
ratchet wheel type self-locking movable joint which comprises a movable end, a fixed end and a direction-adjustable
ratchet wheel mechanism. The movableend mainly comprises a movable end
flange, a movable end rib plate, a movable end steel
pipe, a movable end embedded steel
pipe, movable end wing plates and a rack. The movable end rib plate is arranged between the movable end
flange and the movable end steel
pipe, and the movable end wing plates are symmetrically arranged on the two sides of the movable end steel pipe. One side of the fixed end steel pipe is provided with an opening, the movable end embedded steel pipe is embedded in the side, and the other side is coaxially connected with the fixed end
flange. Fixed end wing plates are symmetrically arranged on the two sides of the opening end of the fixed end steel pipe and correspond to the movable end wing plates. The
ratchet wheel is engaged with the rack, and movement of the rack can drive the ratchet wheel to rotate. A direction-adjusting
handle is arranged outside the fixed end steel pipe, and a connecting rod penetrates through the fixed end steel pipe and a spring in the fixed end steel pipe to connect the ratchet and the direction-adjusting
handle. The movable joint is simple and convenient in structure, free of redundant accessories, capable of being self-locked, convenient to erect and disassemble and capable of bearing pressure and tension at the same time.
