Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0385115A2] In order to place an adjustable multi-step entry device for public transport vehicles both in a step position and in a platform position which approximately reaches the level of the platform, the steps (1a) and (1b) are connected in articulated fashion to an intermediate web (4a) and the steps (1b) and (1c) are connected in articulated fashion to an intermediate web (4b) and form an element chain. Each joint connection between the steps (1a, 1b, 1c) and the intermediate webs (4a, 4b) is assigned in each case a pivot motor (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) which drives the assigned step (1b, 1c) or the assigned intermediate web (4a, 4b) out of the step position into the platform position and vice versa in a pivotable manner. All the steps (1a, 1b, 1c) and all the intermediate webs (4a, 4b) are jointly held in the frame in the platform position so as to be vertically adjustable from the floor (2) of the vehicle up to approximately the level of the platform. <IMAGE>
