  • Patent number: 6257371
    Abstract: A lifting platform for double-tracked vehicles comprising two horizontal vehicle supports including support elements for the vehicle wheels. Also included are lifting elements for synchronously lifting and lowering the vehicle supports, a liftable and lowerable floor compensation formed of slip-proof plate members capable of providing support which cover the recess or space for the vehicle supports in the foundation or continuous footing when the vehicle supports are in their lifted position, and an axis elevator shiftable between the two vehicle supports in longitudinal rails. For completely covering not only the vehicle supports but also the axis elevator when the lifting platform is extended or retracted, the continuous footing is provided with a space for at least partially accommodating the lowered axis elevator, and the floor compensation is designed to also cover this space when the vehicle supports are in their lifted position.
