Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0732296A2] The invention relates to improvements in platform lifts which can be used to raise a load, such as a handicapped person in a wheelchair, to a higher level. The invention therefore provides a platform lift comprising a base, a substantially horizontal platform, said platform being located above and attached to said base by means of an operating mechanism comprising a radial linkage and associated drive means, which platform is movable from a first position to a second position in a substantially arcuate path by means of said operating mechanism, the first and second positions being vertically separated characterised in that the platform extends forwardly from the base as it is raised from the first to the second position and further in that the platform provides a through path for both vehicles and pedestrians. <IMAGE>
