Definitions

  • the present invention provides one approach to this problem which makes it much easier for disabled persons to transport wheelchairs and to manoeuvre the towing vehicle.
  • the invention makes it unnecessary to dismantle wheelchairs in order to transport them.
  • This invention relates to a side- loading trailer having a laterally-extending tray supported on a wheel or wheels wherein, when the trailer is unloaded, the tray may be balanced around a first longitudinally-extending pivot line, whereby the trailer may be loaded by moving a load from an external position laterally across the tray placed in a sloping loading position, the tray then rotating into a stable, generally horizontal, storage position.
  • the tray is preferably connected to a side-loading ramp along a second longitudinally-extending pivot line, whereby the ramp may be swung downwards to a loading position and, following loading, swung upwards to a storage position.
  • rotation of the tray and ramp preferably may be accomplished in a single operation.
  • the tray and ramp are provided with a clamp means adapted to maintain the tray and ramp in a straightline configuration.
  • the trailer is preferably furnished with a restraining attachment adapted for use in attaching the trailer to a vehicle in such a manner that the trailer is maintained in a straight line behind the vehicle as viewed with respect to a central longitudinal line extending through the vehicle, restraining attachment and trailer. It is convenient to use standard, single point-of-attachment towbars.
  • a side-loading trailer 10 comprises a tray 11 connected to a ramp 12 along a longitudinally extending pivot line 13. Thus the tray can be rotated from a loading position to a storage position; see Figure 2.
  • Restraining attachment 14 is connected to a trailer frame 15 by way of lateral pivot means 16.
  • Frame 15, having four girders is substantially rectangular in shape and comprises a first longitudinal girder 17, substantially in line with restraining attachment 14.
  • a second longitudinal girder 18 is shown offset from girder 17 and on the same side of the trailer as ramp 12.
  • Longitudinal pivot means, 21A and 21B respectively, are located in line on the top of second longitudinal girder 18. Longitudinal pivot means 21A and 21B allow tray
  • tray 11 to be rotated from a loading position to a storage position; refer also to Figure 2.
  • An articulated lever (not shown) attached to tray 11 and ramp 12 may be used to clamp tray 11 in the desired position.
  • Figure 3 illustrates ramp 12 swung upwards into a storage position and trailer 10, as seen overall, is shown in a towing position.
  • tray 11 Note that side walls, railings etc. may be provided around tray 11 for the sake of security.

Abstract

Une remorque (10) à chargement latéral est pourvue d'un plateau (11) s'étendant latéralement et pivotant autour d'une première ligne de pivotement (21A, 21B) afin de faciliter le chargement. Une rampe de chargement latéral (12) est prévue de préférence sur un bord latéral du plateau et elle peut pivoter par rapport à une seconde ligne de pivotement (13).
