Definitions
- the invention relates in particular to an extensible hoist platform associable to a telescopic raising arm.
- the most widely used hoist platforms in general comprise a bottom plane, predisposed to support personnel and/or objects and equipment, about which lateral walls are arranged which have the function of protecting the personnel and/or the objects from accidental falls.
- the platforms are predisposed to be connected to a telescopic lifting arm by means of attachment devices of known kind and widely used.
- Prior art document JP 2001 130881 describes hoist platforms the length of which can be varied in a predetermined direction.
- This extensibility characteristic offers the advantage that a platform, within a certain limit, can be adapted to the volume of the load it is to support.
- Generally known-type platforms exhibit a rectangular plan and are extensible in the direction of the larger sides. These larger sides and the bottom platform are provided with telescopic extensions which are slidable between a retracted position, in which the platform assumes a minimum extension, and an extended position, in which the platform assumes a maximum extension.
- Prior-art extensible platforms exhibit some drawbacks.
- the extension manoeuvre is rather difficult as the elements are generally rather heavy.
- To obtain an acceptable degree of manoeuvrability of the extension pieces rather precise sliding guides are required, which among other things must be maintained and lubricated.
- a further drawback is that the manoeuvring of the extension pieces can be done only from the outside of the platform, which therefore has to be brought into a position affording access. Generally, the extension pieces can only be manoeuvred with the platform unloaded.
- the main aim of the present invention is to provide an extensible hoist platform which obviates the drawbacks present in known platforms.
- the extension of the platform is extremely easy and can be done from on board the platform itself, i.e. when loaded, without its having to be lowered or brought into a special position.
- the components needed for realising the extensions of the platform are very simple and light and do not require the presence of sliding guides.
- figure 1 is a perspective view of the platform of the present invention in a non-extended configuration
- figures 2 , 3 and 4 show the various positions that some components of the platform assume during the process of extension of the platform
- figure 5 shows the platform of figure 1 in an extended configuration.
- the extensible platform of the present invention comprises a bottom plane 2 along the perimeter of which lateral walls 3, 4, 5, 6 are arranged, which are raised above the bottom plane 2.
- the bottom plane 2 is preferably constituted by a metal sheet which rests on and is constrained to a flat support frame (not visible in the figures) to which the lateral walls 3, 4, 5, 6 are connected so as to define a cage, superiorly open, on which bottom the bottom plane 2 is arranged.
- the frame, support plane 2 and lateral walls 3,4, 5, 6 are preferably constituted by a reticular structure formed by a plurality of elements connected to one another.
- An access gate can be arranged in one of the lateral walls, which enables personnel to get on board the platform without any need to step over the lateral walls.
- the platform is connectable to a telescopic lift arm by means of an attachment device 13, of known type, which is schematically illustrated in figures 1 and 5 .
- the attachment device 13 is preferably positioned on a lateral wall of the platform, in a central position with respect to the longitudinal development of the lateral wall itself.
- At least a first and a second lateral wall 3, 4 comprise end portions 31, 41, 42 which rotate about axes that are perpendicular to the bottom plane 2, while the bottom plane 2 comprises an end portion 21 which is rotatable about an axis lying on the bottom plane 2 itself.
- the end portions 31, 41, 42 of the lateral walls 3, 4 and the end portion 21 of the bottom plane 2 are rotatable between at least a retracted position, in which they define a third end wall 5 in a determined position and the platform is smaller, and at least an extended position, in which the third end wall 5 of the platform is distanced with respect to the previous position and the platform assumes a greater extension.

- This end portion 31 in the extended position, is aligned to the first lateral wall 3 and increases the development of the first wall 3 parallel to the main direction x, while in the retracted position it is arranged perpendicular to the first lateral wall 3.
- Common pivot joints schematically represented in the figures, rotatably join the end portion 31 to the first lateral wall 3.
- the second lateral wall 4 comprises a first end portion 41, rotating about an axis which is perpendicular to the bottom plane 2 between at least a retracted position, in which the second lateral wall 4 is smaller along the main direction x, and at least an extended position, in which the second lateral wall 4 is larger along the main direction x.

- Prior art document
JP 2001 130881 - Prior-art extensible platforms exhibit some drawbacks. The extension manoeuvre is rather difficult as the elements are generally rather heavy. To obtain an acceptable degree of manoeuvrability of the extension pieces, rather precise sliding guides are required, which among other things must be maintained and lubricated. A further drawback is that the manoeuvring of the extension pieces can be done only from the outside of the platform, which therefore has to be brought into a position affording access. Generally, the extension pieces can only be manoeuvred with the platform unloaded.
- The main aim of the present invention is to provide an extensible hoist platform which obviates the drawbacks present in known platforms.
- Some advantages provided by the invention are that the extension of the platform is extremely easy and can be done from on board the platform itself, i.e. when loaded, without its having to be lowered or brought into a special position. The components needed for realising the extensions of the platform are very simple and light and do not require the presence of sliding guides.

Theend portion 21 of thebottom plane 2, when it is in the extended position, is aligned and coplanar to thebottom plane 2 and extends the development thereof in the main direction x, while when it is in the retracted position it is arranged perpendicular to thebottom plane 2. With respect to thebottom plane 2 itself, theend portion 21 of the bottom plane is on the same side as theend portions lateral walls - The
end portion 31 of the firstlateral wall 3, the first andsecond end portions lateral wall 4 and theend portion 21 of therest plane 2 are conformed and arranged so that when they are in the extended positions they define overall a first prolongation 10 of the platform 1.
