TRANSPORTABLE PERSONAL ELEVATION DEVICE FOR VEHICLE, CLIMBING ASSIST KIT, AND METHODS OF USING SAME
A transportable personal elevation device is attachable to a substrate which is a vehicle or trailer bed. The elevation device includes a platform assembly including a platform and a platform support member. The elevation device also includes a connector assembly including a pivot pin and a mounting structure. The connector assembly is configured and arranged such that when attached to the substrate, the elevation device can be pivotally moved about the pivot pin between a storage position and an outwardly extending position. The elevation device may also include a latch assembly for temporarily fixing a position of the device, and may further include a post which is attached to a side of the platform assembly to permit grasping thereof by a user. The elevation device may take the form of a pivotable stair assembly, or alternatively, may include a power-assisted platform which can be selectively raised and lowered.
WHEEL STEP PLATFORM
A step platform includes a mounting bar, an arm, an inner portion, and a platform. The arm is coupled to the mounting bar and extends vertically from the mounting bar. The arm is coupled to the mounting bar by a first joint. The inner portion is coupled to the arm and extends horizontally from the arm. The inner portion is coupled to the arm by a second joint. The platform extends horizontally above the inner portion. The platform is configured to support a user. The step platform is reconfigurable between a folded position and a mounted position by pivoting the mounting bar relative to the first joint and pivoting the arm relative to the second joint. The platform engages with a tractive element when the step platform is in the mounted position. The mounting bar is extendable or retractable to modify a length and a width of the mounting bar.
Vehicle slidable platform assembly
The present invention relates to a slidable platform assembly and a method of attaching the assembly to the front end of a vehicle. The assembly comprises a frame attachable to a receiver secured to the front end of the vehicle and also comprises a platform slidable within the frame. Various embodiments of slidable platform assembly and methods of attachment to the receiver of the vehicle are herein disclosed.
Systems and methods for egress from a motor home
An emergency exit door assembly for a vehicle. The door assembly can include a door panel that is movably coupled to the wall of the vehicle. The door panel can have an inner surface and an outer surface. The door panel can be configured for selective movement between a closed position and an open position in which an opening within the wall is exposed. A headboard component can be incorporated into the door panel, and a bed pedestal within the vehicle can be positioned in proximity to the headboard component when the door panel is in a closed position.
Multiple hitch assembly
A multiple hitch assembly and method of use thereof including a hitch platform having a channel member and multiple hitch member having a block base. A dampening member may be affixed such that coupling of the multiple hitch member by locked engagement of received through holes of the block base and paired side holes disposed in flanges of the channel member compresses the dampening member upon the recessed column of the hitch platform to absorb and thus attenuate the load and associated torque imparted by movement and rub between the hitch platform and multiple hitch member to thereby reduce associated rattle noise, and vibration.
