Abstract
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.
