Abstract: A folding cargo loading/unloading ramp, particularly adapted for motor trucks, includes first and second ramp sections and an intermediate support leg assembly which is pivotally connected to the first and second ramp sections at a common hinge point. The support leg assembly includes a latch for automatically latching the support leg assembly in a working position when it is rotated from a folded position to its working position, the latch being manually actuatable to unlock the support leg assembly to rotate back to its folded or non-working position. Both ramp sections and the support leg assembly include manipulating handles to facilitate movement of the ramp between a stored position and a working position.

Abstract: Sectional upward acting doors used in vehicle cargo bodies are provided with multiple generally planar door panels which are interconnected by spaced apart hinge assemblies. At least selected intermediate hinge assemblies are provided with hinge pin receiving bosses to receive elongated hinge pins extending between adjacent hinge assemblies and secured thereto. The hinge pins preferably comprise elongated cylindrical rods which form hinge pins for adjacent hinge assemblies and extend between adjacent hinge assemblies to form a reinforcing member to minimize lateral deflection of the door panels.

The support leg assembly includes a latch for automatically latching the support leg assembly in a working position when it is rotated from a folded position to its working position, the latch being manually actuatable to unlock the support leg assembly. Ground engaging rollers are mounted on the support legs and are braked against rotation when the ramp is in a working position. Both ramp sections and the support leg assembly include manipulating handles to facilitate movement of the ramp between a stored position and a working position.
