Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a running track on a lift for vehicles, including an end plate at each end of the running track, and where an arrangement including one or more supports and one or more holding means is disposed under and in connection with the end plate, which end plate is articulated about a first journal to the end of the running track, and where the arrangement in a first position is adapted to lock the end plate at an angular position about the first journal by the supports engaging the holding means, and in a secqnd position for allowing the end plate to pivot freely about the first journal.
  • lifts In order to elevate a vehicle, different kinds of lifts are used which usually include running tracks that are typically shorter than the wheel base on the vehicle, whereby they constitute the support of the vehicle body when the vehicle is elevated above the floor surface.
  • axle base between the wheel sets of the vehicle is much greater than the length of the running tracks, it will advantageous if the end plates are locked in a horizontal position whereby they constitute an extension of the running tracks.
  • a further drawback is that the holding means are fastened to the underside of the end plate, entailing that it is the strength of the fastening between holding means and end plate that is decisive for the holding means to keep the end plate in the desired horizontal position, even if a load comes on the end plates.
  • the end plate is pivotably connected at each end of the running track, so that an entry ramp is formed on which the wheels of the vehicle may easily pass up/down.
  • the end plates are pivotably connected to the end of the running track so that when the running track is lifted up, the end plate can be pivoted downwards and thereby allow the mechanic to have more space around the wheels.
  • the arrangement which ensures a simple, efficient and secure blocking of the end plate in a horizontal position, is disposed under and in connection with the end plate, and includes supports and holding means which by mutual engagement retains the end plate in a horizontal position.
  • the simple structure of the arrangement is achieved by the supports being connected pivotably about a journal which is either disposed at the outer edge of the end plate or is disposed at the underside of the end plate.
  • the mentioned outer edge is the edge of the end plate which is opposite the outer edge connected with a journal to the end of the running track.
  • the holding means are arranged on a lower part of the end of the running track so that end parts of supports cannot pass by freely and are thereby limited to pass up and down along the end of the running track.
  • the holding means are disposed at the end of the running track provides that it may absorb some of the compressive forces that are transmitted from a load on running tracks to the holding means via the supports, entailing that this construction can withstand greater loads than if the holding means were disposed in connection with the underside of the end plate.
  • the holding means is designed as a C-element, where one end part of the support has a complementing shape so that one end part of the support fits into the C-shape of the holding means, whereby there is achieved a secure engagement, and this prevents the end part of the support from performing a horizontal movement up along the end of the edge rail.
  • a centrally disposed support which e.g. can be a flat bar or a plate having the same width as the end plate.
  • the said arrangement furthermore includes a handle which is adapted for actuating the support.
  • a handle which is adapted for actuating the support.
  • the handle is mounted in connection with a crossbar connecting the supports, it is possible to move the supports and the end plate about their respective journals at each outer edge of the end plate, so that in a first position, the end plate is secured in a horizontal position, and in a second position pivots freely about the journal.
  • the supports are hinged at or close to an outer edge of the end plate, they are to be secured against swining outwards when the end plate is lifted, entailing that the supports are hanging as an extension of the end plate.
  • the arrangement furthermore includes one or more guides that are adapted for retaining the supports at an acute angle in relation to the end plate.
  • the guides are designed as brackets that are mounted up under the end plate, and where the support is passed through the bracket during mounting.
  • the bracket guides supports in an angular range between minimum 0° and maximum 45°, thereby preventing the supports from swinging freely in relation to the shaft at the outer edge of the end plate.
  • the arrangement furthermore includes rollers which are disposed at the outer edge of the end plate opposite the outer edge where the end plate is pivotably connected to the end.
  • rollers may extend entirely or partially along the outer edge of the end plate. However, the most important fact is that they have a size/diameter that does not prevent the end plate from being used as entry ramp for the running track.
  • Fig. 1 On Fig. 1 is seen a perspective view of a running track 1 which is pivotably connected with an end plate 2 in a journal 3.
  • the end plate 2 is shown locked in a horizontal position where and end part 8 of supports 4, which are pivotably connected with the end plate 2 in a journal 15, engages holding means 5 that are arranged at an end 6 of the running track 1.
  • the end plate 2 is provided with rollers 9 providing that the end plate 2 is sliding easily across the floor surface (not shown) when the running track 1 is lifted and the end plate 2 pivot downwards.
  • the supports 4 are provide with a crossbar 10 that connects the two supports 4 and ends in a handle 11 at a side edge 12 of the end plate 2.
  • Fig. 2 On Fig. 2 is shown a sideview of the end plate 2 in Fig. 1 where it is clearly seen that a support 4 in an end part is pivotably connected via a journal 15 with the end plate 2, and that the other end part 8 engages a holding means 5.
  • Fig. 3 On Fig. 3 is shown how the end plate 2 is released. This is effected by getting hold of the handle 11 and lifting the end plate 2 slightly in direction A, whereby the engagement of the end part 8 with holding means 5 is released.
  • Fig. 6 On Fig. 6 is seen a side view of the running track 1 which is pivotably connected with the end plate 2 in journal 3. The end plate 2 is shown lying down against the floor surface 13, where it forms an entry ramp 14 for the running track 1.
  • Rollers 9 associated with the journal 15 cause the end plate 2 to form automatically the entry ramp 14 when the running track 1 is lowered down against the floor surface 13, as the downwards directed force from the running track 1 will force the end plate 2 away from the end of the running track 1.
  • Fig. 7 On Fig. 7 is seen a perspective view of a preferred embodiment of a running track 1 which is pivotably connected with an end plate 2 in a journal 3.
  • the end plate 2 is shown secured in a horizontal position where an end part 8 of supports 4 engages holding means 5 that are arranged at an end 6 of the running track 1.
  • the supports 4 are each pivotably connected with the end plate 2 in journals 20 that are disposed at the underside 22 of the end plate 2 and close to the outer edge 21 of the end plate 2.
  • Crossbar 10 is welded to both supports 4 so that it is possible to handle both supports 4 at the same time.
  • the crossbar 10 is disposed between the shaft 20 and a guide 16.
  • the guide 16 is here shown as brackets disposed at the underside of the end plate 2 and through which supports 4 extend, whereby guides 16 prevent the supports 4 from swinging freely downwards.
