A folding leg for a stepladder is disclosed. The folding leg allows the width of the stepladder base to be narrowed when in the stored orientation and widened while in an in-use orientation.

An access platform system for enabling access to and from ground-based structures, vehicles, and mobile equipment. The system has a main frame that is attached to or juxtaposed with one or more of the ground-based structures, vehicles, and mobile equipment; a vertical platform displacement assembly attached to the main frame; and a folding steps assembly. The vertical displacement mechanism has a multi-stage apparatus for influencing the stroke of lift cylinders. In one embodiment, the folding steps assembly has folding and unfolding steps.

A ladder attachment platform is provided that includes a base for attachment to a ladder that has first and second side rails and a plurality of rungs that extend between in a lateral direction. Also included is a user platform for having a user stand thereon that is carried by the base. The user platform may be positioned with respect to the ladder so that it is not located between a first plane that extends through the first side rail and is perpendicular to the lateral direction and a second plane that extends through the second side rail and is perpendicular to the lateral direction.

The laptop stand may comprise a laptop platform, a support leg, a first platform retainer, and a second platform retainer. The laptop stand may detachably couple to a work area and may be operable to support a laptop computer while the laptop computer is being used. The laptop stand may thus allow the laptop computer to be conveniently accessed in an environment where no horizontal surfaces are available upon which the laptop computer may be placed. The first platform retainer and the second platform retainer may detachably couple to the work area to support the rear of the laptop platform. The support leg may extend down from the front of the laptop platform to support the front of the laptop platform in a horizontal orientation. The laptop computer may be placed upon the laptop platform once the laptop platform is horizontally oriented.

An extendable hunting stand includes a post assembly and a platform assembly. The post assembly includes multiple posts, and includes an outer post having an upper end defining an opening, an inner post telescopically arranged within the outer post. The inner post is configured to extend through the opening at the upper end of the outer post. The platform assembly is movable between a lower end and an upper end of the inner post. A lifting assembly automatically moves the platform assembly along the inner post between the lower end and the upper end of the inner post.
