Problems solved by technology

[0006] Clearly, this situation can lead to the risk that the operator will not be able to rest his feet stably, or that he / she will slip and fall to the ground when trying to exit the vehicle
[0007] It is known that this defect is exacerbated by the fact that the work machine is inevitably soiled by mud or sand from its operating environment
[0008] In addition, at present, the market requires large vehicles, for which the length of the known type of ladder is not sufficient; in fact, the use of said known type of ladder results in the operator who has reached the lower step having to jump to reach the ground, which has the The obvious risks associated with this
[0009] On the other hand, it is not possible to have the ladder extend down to the vehicle frame in the space below, inside which the wheels (or rails) are housed, because the protruding parts will inevitably hit the ground or other obstacles

Embodiment Construction

[0031] With reference to the accompanying drawings, the access device of the invention is generally indicated with the reference numeral 1 .

[0032] The apparatus 1 disclosed here is notably intended for use in lifting devices or telehandlers or the like, also collectively referred to herein as "lifting vehicles".

[0033] In particular, the invention is particularly, but not exclusively, intended for use with, for example, large forklift trucks of the stable and non-rotating type, such as those used in mines.

[0034] In this case the vehicle is preferably used for servicing large mining machines and can be used to replace large hydraulic or mechanical components normally operating on said large mining machines, such as relatively large hydraulic cylinders and the like.

[0035] The function of the device 1 described here is to allow the driver of the forklift truck to enter and exit the cab comfortably and safely.

[0036] More generally, the invention comprises a ladder 1...

Abstract

The apparatus (1) for gaining access to the driver's cab of a telescopic handler or the like, comprises: a ladder (10) which in turn comprises at least two parts (11, 12) of which at least one is movable; and an automatic device (3) for moving said movable part (11, 12).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for accessing lift vehicles or telehandlers or the like. [0002] In particular, the invention is particularly, but not exclusively, intended for use with large telescopic hoists as used in mines. Background technique [0003] Machines of the above-mentioned type are provided with a movable frame mounted with rails or wheels, on which is fitted a cab at a height from the ground, so that a ladder is required to allow the operator to sit and leave the driver's seat of the vehicle . [0004] The ladder is located below the cab, and consists of two or three rungs arranged one above the other relative to the frame body. Prior art solutions fail to meet security requirements for several reasons. [0005] Firstly, when leaving the vehicle, the operator must try to fumble to place his feet on the lower riser, i.e. the operator must feel the space under his feet while at the same time not having the opportunity to directly o...
