The foldable truck bed extension deck and ramp assembly are mountable in a short-box pickup truck. The bed extension deck and ramp assembly have a comparable length to a full-size pickup truck box when deployed for use, and are jointly foldable to fit into a short-bed pickup truck with its tailgate closed when not used. The bed extension deck has a strong upper surface to resist deformation in rough use. The ramp member can be deployed with its front end matching the surface of the extension deck so that a vehicle can be driven along the ramp member and onto the deck surface without encountering any transition step.

An apparatus for use with a vehicle tailgate includes a base, a first attachment member, a second attachment member and a ramp. The first attachment member and second attachment member are spaced apart from each other and extend from the base. The ramp is irremovably secured to the base. The attachment members are configured to be received in a latch of the vehicle tailgate.

A rotatable trailer bed includes a frame, a trailer bed, a turntable swivel assembly, and a plurality of swivel casters. The frame includes a bed section, a hitch section, and two wheel sets. The hitch section is adjacently connected a front end of the bed section. The two wheel sets is rotatably mounted to the bed section. The plurality of swivel casters is mounted to the bed section is perimetrically positioned around the bed section. The trailer bed is rotatably mounted to the bed section through the turntable swivel assembly as the plurality of swivel casters maintain the balance and level of the trailer bed.

The present invention discloses a delivery system for use in a vehicle having a driver's compartment with a driver seat and a cargo area. The delivery system includes a partition adapted to be mounted within the vehicle to separate the driver's compartment from the cargo area. The partition has an opening adjacent the driver seat. A sloping tray is positioned within the cargo area and extends longitudinally along the cargo area through the opening in the partition and into the driver's compartment. The sloping tray terminates adjacent the vehicle driver seat. The sloping tray slopes downwardly from the cargo area to the driver's compartment. Items upon the sloping tray slide from the cargo area into the driver compartment to adjacent the vehicle driver seat for easy delivery.

A loading ramp for a vehicle having a storage area is disclosed, wherein the loading ramp may also serve as a substantially weather tight door for the storage area. The loading ramp comprises a frame structure attached to the vehicle by angled extension members that allow the bottom of the frame to extend below the floor of the storage area. The loading ramp is pivotally attached to the frame. A dovetail structure is built onto the angled extension members, the dovetail being angled to match the angle of the ramp. A hydraulic cylinder and automatic control system is also provided to assist in raising and lowering the ramp.

A transportation vehicle including a plurality of battery packs, a plurality of power equipment, and a controller. The controller is configured to identify at least one of the plurality of power equipment or at least one of the plurality of battery packs that requires charging and direct power through a bus to distribute power to at least one of the plurality of power equipment or at least one of the plurality of battery packs. The plurality of battery packs are configured to recharge the plurality of power equipment.

An automated cargo vehicle ramp deployment system includes a controller and a power source connected thereto, a ramp located at the existing cargo vehicle, a first automated ramp displacement mechanism for configured to selectively displace the ramp from a first position to a second position defined along a perimeter of the existing cargo vehicle while the ramp is maintained at a vertically oriented position, a second automated ramp displacement mechanism for configured to selectively displace the ramp from one of the first position and the second position to a third position, and a third automated ramp displacement mechanism for selectively adjusting a longitudinal length of the ramp while the ramp is statically disposed at a third position.

A tailgate assembly is provided for a cargo bed having a bottom wall and a front, left and right side walls. An opening is defined between the left and right side walls, and the bottom wall. The tailgate assembly includes a first panel and a second panel. The first panel is pivotally connected to the bottom wall. The first panel is pivotable between a cargo-retaining position and an unfolded position with respect to the bottom wall. In the cargo-retaining position, the first panel closes the opening. The second panel is pivotally connected to the first panel. The second panel is pivotable between a folded position and a ramp position. In the folded position, the first panel and the second panel are substantially parallel to one another and in the ramp position the first and second panels extend from one another at an angle greater than ninety degrees.

An RV ramp door is hingedly connected near the vehicle floor for selective opening and closing by a user. A weather-resistant construction of a ramp door includes an inner foam body having an inner face and an outer face, a ramp door inner surface, a ramp door outer surface, a first layer of thermoplastic composite material disposed between the inner face of the foam body and the ramp door inner surface, and a second layer of thermoplastic composite material disposed between the outer face of the foam body and the ramp door outer surface. The ramp door inner surface may be a slip-resistant material, and the ramp door outer surface may be a fiberglass panel. The ramp door may include one or more weep holes for releasing any trapped liquid.

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle (100) comprising at least a towing vehicle (102), the towing vehicle comprising steerable wheels and is arranged to convey the vehicle in at least a major longitudinal forward direction (104) of the vehicle (100), wherein the vehicle further comprises a load handling arrangement (200) arranged to support transportation of material to or from the vehicle (100), the load handling arrangement (200) being configured to assume a material handling mode in which the load handling arrangement (200) is arranged to support transportation of the material between the vehicle (100) and a stationary ground portion (106) in the vicinity of the vehicle (100), wherein the load handling arrangement (200) extends substantially in the major longitudinal forward direction (104) of the vehicle over at least a portion of the towing vehicle (102) when assuming the material handling mode.
