Benefits of technology
[0004] The present invention provides a foldable bridge platform which adopts a foldable structure in order to decrease the width of the platform for facilitating the movement and storage of the bridge platform.
[0005] The foldable bridge platform provided by the present invention includes a platform, a base bracket with casters installed beneath the bottom thereof, and a vertical rail erected and secured on the base bracket for providing the platform a guidance to adjust the height thereof. The platform includes at least one main board and two side boards which are pivotally connected to the outer sides of the main board. The main board has a plurality of supporting bulges fixed at the outer sides thereof in order to support the horizontally unfolded side boards. By folding up the side boards of the platform, the width of the bridge platform can be greatly reduced and the objective of the present invention is thereby attained.
Problems solved by technology
Climbing stairs is difficult both for disabled persons who utilize a wheelchair and for other disabled persons with limited mobility.
However, the conventional bridge platform is too wide to pass through a narrower channel while it is being moved inside a building.
Moreover, the conventional bridge platform is overly large, and therefore, is inconvenient for storage.

Embodiment Construction
[0013] Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts.
[0014] Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the folded and unfolded configurations of a foldable bridge platform 1 are shown respectively. The bridge platform 1 is capable of being transported to a place with a height difference for utilization in assisting a disabled person in easily traversing a concave or rugged place. The bridge platform 1 includes a platform 10, a base bracket 11, and a vertical rail 12.
[0015] The base bracket 11 is mainly utilized to support the vertical rail 12 and keep the vertical rail 12 standing upright. The base bracket 11 includes a pair of elongated side struts 110 which are parallel with each other; a plurality of casters 112 installed beneath the side strut 110 for faci...

Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates in general to a bridge platform, and more particularly, to a foldable bridge platform which is capable of assisting a disabled person when he negotiates stairs or a rugged place. [0002] Climbing stairs is difficult both for disabled persons who utilize a wheelchair and for other disabled persons with limited mobility. Nonetheless, stairs exist everywhere in human society. To assist the disabled person in traversing stairs, or a concave or rugged place, a bridge platform capable of being adjusted the height thereof is provided. [0003] A conventional bridge platform has wheels installed beneath the bottom thereof, and therefore, possesses mobility. However, the conventional bridge platform is too wide to pass through a narrower channel while it is being moved inside a building. Moreover, the conventional bridge platform is overly large, and therefore, is inconvenient for storage. BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0004] The...
