  • Patent number: 10555844
    Abstract: This disclosure provides a system that combines together a wheelchair ramp and lift. The system starts inside the vehicle interior so that the ramp, when deployed, only protrudes several inches from the edge of the vehicle rather than several feet. This increases flexibility in the entry and egress of a wheelchair to and from a vehicle.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10470951
    Abstract: A wheelchair lift for a vehicle having a cab with a rear seat. The wheelchair lift includes a lift tray dimensioned to support a wheelchair. An articulating assembly is provided that is configured to move the lift tray transversely between an extended position outside a cab of a vehicle and a retracted position fully within the cab of the vehicle. The wheelchair lift includes a vertical lift assembly configured to raise and lower the lift tray. In some cases, the articulating assembly is mounted to a vertical wall of a vehicle cab between a rear seat and a vehicle door.

  • Patent number: 9603759
    Abstract: The present invention provides a compact wheelchair lift mechanism useable within a relatively small vehicle cabin space, such as a pickup truck with an extended cabin. The wheelchair lift includes a lateral actuator and a vertical actuator that cooperate to move a wheelchair support laterally in and out of a vehicle cabin and vertically between the cabin floor and the ground. The vehicle includes a lowered floor for expanding the vertical opening available to the lift, wheelchair, and vehicle occupant. The lift is positioned within the vehicle cabin such that no loss of seating capacity results from the installation of the lift.
