Said ramp comprises a short housing (1), which is open by one of its walls, and a platform (2) that is located inside said housing and which can be taken out through the hole in the wall. The housing also contains a mechanism (12) for linear actuation of the platform displacing the latter between retracting and extracting positions. The actuation mechanism (12) consists of cylinders that are connected to the platform (2) by means of moveable supports (11).

Description

RAMPA DE ACCESO PARA PERSONAS DE MOVILIDAD REDUCIDA.ACCESS RAMP FOR REDUCED MOBILITY PEOPLE.
La presente invención se refiere a una rampa de acceso retráctil, especialmente concebida para facilitar el acceso de personas de movilidad reducida a lugares en los que haya un desnivel que pueda variar entre 30 y 100 cm de altura.The present invention relates to a retractable access ramp, specially designed to facilitate the access of people with reduced mobility to places where there is a slope that can vary between 30 and 100 cm in height.
La rampa de la invención está concebida como una unidad o conjunto de fácil adaptación a vehículos de todo tipo, para facilitar el acceso a los mismos. Mediante la rampa de la invención se consigue facilitar el acceso de viajeros a trenes en los cuales el anden esté situado por debajo del piso del tren, con un desnivel aproximado entre 30 cm y 100 cm.The ramp of the invention is conceived as a unit or assembly of easy adaptation to vehicles of all types, to facilitate access to them. By means of the ramp of the invention it is possible to facilitate the access of passengers to trains in which the platform is located below the train floor, with an approximate height difference between 30 cm and 100 cm.
Igualmente, la rampa de la invención es aplicable para facilitar el acceso a autobuses y otros medios de transportes, públicos o privados, en los que la diferencia de niveles entre la acera y el piso del vehículo varíe entre 30 y 60 cm, aproximadamente.Similarly, the ramp of the invention is applicable to facilitate access to buses and other means of transport, public or private, in which the difference in levels between the sidewalk and the floor of the vehicle varies between approximately 30 and 60 cm.
La rampa de la invención puede ser también utilizada para facilitar el acceso a lugares públicos o privados, en los que pueden existir desniveles de valores similares a los señalados anteriormente.The ramp of the invention can also be used to facilitate access to public or private places, where there may be unevennesses of values similar to those indicated above.
Para facilitar el acceso a autobuses y otros vehículos son ya conocidas plataformas levadizas o abatibles, las cuales son de manejo complicado, siendo necesarias al menos dos personas para realizar la operación completa de acceso. Las operaciones de extensión y recogida de la plataforma resultan lentas, lo cual puede provocar retrasos en los desplazamientos del vehículo. Por último, estas plataformas resultan excesivamente voluminosas, en la posición retraída, restando espacio al habitáculo del vehículo.To facilitate access to buses and other vehicles are already known lifting or folding platforms, which are complicated to handle, with at least two people being necessary to perform the entire access operation. Platform extension and collection operations are slow, which can cause delays in the movement of the vehicle. Finally, these platforms are excessively bulky, in the retracted position, subtracting space to the passenger compartment of the vehicle.
El objeto de la invención es eliminar los problemas señalados mediante una rampa de constitución y funcionamiento sencillos, cuya extracción y recogida se efectúe de forma automática y rápida. Además la rampa de la invención es de estructura robusta y de dimensiones reducidas, estando concebida como una unidad que puede ser fácilmente adicionada a un vehículo o lugar, incluyendo los mecanismos de accionamiento necesarios .The object of the invention is to eliminate the problems indicated by a ramp of simple constitution and operation, the extraction and collection of which is carried out automatically and quickly. Furthermore, the ramp of the invention is of robust structure and of reduced dimensions, being conceived as a unit that can be easily added to a vehicle or place, including the necessary drive mechanisms.
La rampa de la invención está constituida por una carcasa autoportante, de planta cuadrada o rectangular y pequeña altura, que va abierta por una de sus paredes laterales. Dentro de esta carcasa se aloja una plataforma que puede ser extraída a través de la pared abierta de la carcasa. La rampa incluye además un mecanismo de accionamiento lineal de la plataforma, que es el encargado de provocar el desplazamiento lineal de la misma entre posiciones extremas de retracción y extracción.The ramp of the invention is constituted by a self-supporting housing, of square or rectangular plan and small height, which is opened by one of its side walls. Inside this housing is housed a platform that can be extracted through the open wall of the housing. The ramp also includes a linear drive mechanism of the platform, which is responsible for causing its linear displacement between extreme retraction and extraction positions.
La carcasa lleva montada en la pared abierta una compuerta que va articulada por su borde inferior a la carcasa y dispone de elementos de rodadura internos sobre los que apoya el borde externo de la plataforma, de modo que durante su extracción, el empuje que produce sobre los elementos de rodadura provoca la apertura de la compuerta .The housing has a gate mounted on the open wall that is articulated by its lower edge to the housing and has internal rolling elements on which the external edge of the platform rests, so that during its extraction, the thrust it produces on the rolling elements cause the gate to open.

El mecanismo de accionamiento, mediante el que se efectúa el desplazamiento de la plataforma entre sus posiciones de retracción y extracción, está constituido por dos cilindros, neumáticos o hidráulicos, que son paralelos a la dirección de desplazamiento de la plataforma y van situados preferentemente a uno y otro lado de la misma. A cada uno de los émbolos de estos cilindros va conectado uno de los soportes desplazables a los que se articulan las orejetas posteriores de la plataforma. Cada una de las orejetas comentadas va además relacionada con el soporte desplazable adyacente mediante un resorte que impulsa a dichas orejetas y plataformas hacia una posición superior de mínima inclinación.

The open wall can be closed by means of a gate 6 which, as best seen in Figure 6, is articulated by its lower edge to the adjacent edge of the lower base of the housing 1 and has upper rolling elements 7 on which the anterior edge will rest of platform 2, when its extraction begins, causing the gate to open with its thrust.
