  • Patent number: 8662251
    Abstract: Fall protection for personnel servicing an elevated work area from a man lift. A bridge is pivotally mounted to a working edge of the man lift. The bridge pivots between a stored position and a substantially horizontal operative position. The bridge has a pivotally mounted edge, a remote edge opposite to the pivotally mounted edge and opposed sides. An expandable enclosure is anchored to the man lift. The enclosure is movable between a collapsed position and an expanded position. In the collapsed position, the enclosure is collapsed parallel to and provides fall protection along the working edge of the man lift. In the expanded position, the enclosure provides fall protection for the opposed sides of the bridge in the operative position and provides fall protection in the work area by enclosing a portion of the work area beyond the remote edge of the bridge.
