Step ladder with lateral support - has support strut rotating out from one of the ladder frames to give lateral support

摘要

The step ladder has increased lateral stability. An outer strut (40) is connected to one beam of the ladder (34). It can swivel (48, 50) from a stored position flush with the ladder to an outward position where it gives lateral support to the ladder. The strut has a foot (42) which extends beyond the ladder in the deployed position. USE/ADVANTAGE - Increased stability for high step ladders. (4pp Dwg.No.1/1)
