MANUALLY OPERATED RAMP ASSEMBLY

摘要

A ramp assembly (10) is composed of an inner platform (18) fixed in an access step of a building or vehicle and a movable outer platform (16) pivotably connected with a hinge (9) to the inner platform (18). The outer platform (16) overlies the inner platform (18) when the ramp assembly is not in use and is stowed. To extend the outer platform (16) to create a ramp leading to the access step a link (20) is employed. The link (20) has a handle (22) accessible adjacent the hinge (9) and pivotably linked to the platform (16) remote from the hinge (9).
