<p>A slide apparatus (10) is adapted to mount to a vertical wall (12) located adjacent to a stairway (13), the stairway (13) having an upper portion, a lower portion, and a middle portion between the upper and lower portions, where each of the upper portion, middle portion and lower portion of the stairway (13) comprises one or more steps and where the upper portion of the stairway (13) is adjacent to an upper portion of the vertical wall (12), the middle portion of the stairway (13) is adjacent to a middle portion of the vertical wall (12), and the lower portion of the stairway (13) is adjacent to a lower portion of the vertical wall (12), the slide apparatus (10) comprising:
a) a slide member (11) having along its length an upper portion, a lower portion and a middle portion between the upper and lower portions, and comprising a base and a first wall, the first wall being joined lengthwise to the base to form an angle between the base and the first wall;
b) a first mounting apparatus (17a) for securing the upper portion of the slide member (11) to the upper portion of the vertical wall (12), the first mounting apparatus (17a) being securable to the upper portion of the vertical wall (12) and secured to the upper portion of the slide member (11); and
c) a second mounting apparatus (17d) for securing the lower portion of the slide member (11) to the lower portion of the vertical wall (12), the second mounting apparatus (17d) being secured to the lower portion of the slide member (11),
wherein the first and second mounting apparatuses (17a, 17d) allow for the pivotal movement of the slide member (11) from a position in which the slide base is substantially parallel to the vertical wall (12) to a position in which the slide base is substantially perpendicular to the vertical wall (12).</p> |
