Vehicle with disabled person or goods hoist - has platform folding between beams tilting on horizontal axis for stowage in underfloor compartment

摘要

The vehicle has a hoist for disabled persons or goods, and is formed by a platform fixed to two parallel supporting beams suspended in a guide. The guide forms a compartment under the vehicle floor, into which the lifting mechanism can be thrust when not in use. The platform (10) folds upwards between the beams (6,6'), which are equipped with the lifting mechanism and a guide for the platform. They tilt from the vertical working position about a horizontal axis (11) so that, with the platform between them, they can be slid along the guide (5,5') into the compartment.
