Patent number: 10081287Abstract: The present invention provides a lift gate system. In one embodiment, the lift gate system comprises a lift platform, a lifting mechanism, and at least one stop member. The lifting mechanism moves the lift platform between a raised position and a lowered position. The lift platform is substantially aligned with an extension plate when the lift platform is in the raised position. The stop members are positioned relative to the lift platform to provide a gap between the extension plate and the lift platform when the lift platform is in the raised position.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2017Date of Patent: September 25, 2018Assignee: MAXON INDUSTRIES, INC.Inventors: Karapet Ablabutyan, Akop Gasparian, Aida Sahakyan

Publication number: 20120126562Abstract: The present invention provides a modular extension device and method for mounting the modular extension device on a vehicle, such as a truck. The modular extension plate device comprises an extension plate, a left extender bracket, and potentially a right extender bracket, that when coupled together form an extension assembly. The extension plate further comprises an elongated rectangular plate having an essentially L-shaped profile, a left substantially triangle-shaped support member, a right substantially triangle-shaped support member, a left essentially L-shaped support member and a right essentially L-shaped support member. The modular extension assembly can be coupled adjacent to the rear edge of a vehicle bed for extending the depth of the vehicle bed.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 27, 2010Publication date: May 24, 2012Applicant: RS DRAWINGS, LLCInventors: Karapet Ablabutyan, Akop Gasparian

Patent number: 7762756Abstract: The invention provides a moveable underride system that may be used with lifts such as stow lifts. The underride system includes an underride member and a linkage mechanism for coupling the underride member to a support frame, wherein the linkage mechanism moves the underride member between an extended position and a retracted position. In the extended position the underride member is at a first distance from the frame, and in the retracted position the underride is at a second distance from the frame, such that the first distance (for the extended position) is larger than the second distance (for the retracted position).Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2007Date of Patent: July 27, 2010Assignee: Maxon Industries, Inc.Inventors: Karapet Ablabutyan, Akop Gasparian
