Patent number: 9682750Abstract: A movable passenger bridge to embark and disembark passenger to/from a ship is provided. The passenger bridge is movable and includes one or several telescopic sections, where the passenger bridge is arranged to connect to an opening in the hull of the ship. The section of the passenger bridge that is arranged closest to the ship has the largest cross section area. The passenger bridge is arranged so that the passengers can walk through the sections of the passenger bridge to a connection section, in the shape of a cabin, arranged to be connected to the mentioned opening in the hull of the ship or to an opening in the rail at deck of the ship. The passenger bridge is supported by a stand which is movable on the port quay, and that the passenger bridge is height-adjustable by means of the stand.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2014Date of Patent: June 20, 2017Assignee: FMT International Trade ABInventor: Per Thelander

Patent number: 9637876Abstract: Device at inclined floors in passenger bridges for connection between a terminal building and a ship or an aircraft, includes two or more consecutive walking tunnels adjustable to be inclined in relation to the horizontal plane, and which include horizontal resting planes, wherein the floor of the walking tunnel extends out from a floor portion constituting the resting plane in opposite directions from the resting plane. A first short end of the respective floor of the walking tunnel is pivotally fixed to the floor portion, constituting the resting plane, the other short end of the respective floor rests on a sliding or rolling surface arranged so that the floor can move lengthwise relative to the sliding or rolling surface. The floor portion forming the resting plane is arranged to be pivoted about a horizontal axis via an electric actuator or hydraulic cylinder, whereby the resting planes assume a horizontal position.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2014Date of Patent: May 2, 2017Assignee: FMT INTERNATIONAL TRADE ABInventor: Per Thelander
