Abstract: Lifting device (1) for disabled people in wheelchairs and children's pushchairs, comprising a supporting frame (2), permanently applied to a motor vehicle or a fixed installation, and a sliding foldaway platform (3) moving between a retracted position and an extracted position, with respect to said supporting frame (2). The platform (3) can also move in said extracted position, between a lowered position and a raised position, by means of an articulated parallelogram linkage system (17). The movements of the platform (3) are achieved by means of electrical actuators (9, 20).

Abstract: Foldaway ramp for the access of disabled people's wheelchairs and children's pushchairs aboard vehicles with low floors, comprising a platform, displaceable between a retracted position and an extracted position, with respect to a supporting frame, provided underneath the floor. Cams are provided for controlling slant of the platform, during the final phase of its displacement towards the extracted position, from a position parallel to the floor to a position which is slanted downwards, where the front edge of the platform rests on the ground, and the return of the platform to the position in which it is parallel to the floor during the initial phase of its displacement towards the retracted position, by effect respectively of raising and lowering the rear side of the platform operated by the cams.

Abstract: A longitudinal cavity is defined in the fixed longitudinal support (2) preferably presenting a square section (7) within which a main sliding cursor (6) is held to which at least one auxiliary cursor (10) is associated, the two cursors together are suited to bearing rollers (8) that can slide along four races (9) coinciding with the sides of said longitudinal cavity set with a diagonal coinciding with the action line (II—II) of the load (P) supported by the linear guide (FIG. 3).
