Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of RV technology, and in particular to a flip-up step for RVs. Background Technology

[0002] Nowadays, with the improvement of living standards, RVs have become quite common in people's lives, allowing them to spend leisure time in the countryside with family or friends. Because the entrance to an RV is designed to be high off the ground, steps are usually required for easy entry and exit. There are various types of steps available, including retractable, folding, and both. Regardless of the type, steps only have a single function: to facilitate entry into the RV. RVs also require an additional door, increasing costs and taking up more interior space. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a flip-up step and a motorhome, the flip-up step having dual functions, serving as both a step and a door, to better utilize motorhome space. To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0004] A flip-up step includes a step and a support plate. One end of the support plate is rotatably connected to the bottom of a doorway, and the step is fixedly connected to one side of the support plate. When the support plate flips upward, it can close the doorway. When the support plate flips downward and reliably contacts the ground, it can pass through the doorway by step.

[0005] Furthermore, the step consists of a first plate and a second plate that are perpendicular to each other.

[0006] Furthermore, the support plate is driven by a motor.

[0007] Furthermore, the motor drives the support plate via a reducer.

[0008] Furthermore, handrails are fixed at both ends of the steps.

[0009] Preferably, there are two handrails, which are arranged on the left and right sides of the steps respectively.

[0010] This utility model further discloses a motorhome that includes the aforementioned flip-up step.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, this utility model can eliminate the need for an entrance door, reducing costs while increasing interior space. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0018] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a flipping step includes:

[0020] A flip-up step includes a step 100 and a support plate 200. One end of the support plate 200 is rotatably connected to the bottom of a doorway 300, and the step 100 is fixedly connected to one side of the support plate 200. When the support plate 200 flips upward, it can close the doorway 300. At this time, the support plate 200 is used as a door. When the support plate 200 flips downward and makes reliable contact with the ground, the step 100 can be used to pass through the doorway 300. At this time, the support plate 200 and the step 100 are used together as a ladder.

[0021] The doorway here refers to the opening of a door, which is the main passageway for entering and exiting. Using this design, the flip-up step has a dual function: it can be used as both a door and a ladder. This ingenious design avoids the current practice of installing a ladder while also having a separate door.

[0022] Furthermore, the step 100 is composed of a first plate 110 and a second plate 120 that are perpendicular to each other. The first plate 110 and the second plate 120 constitute a step unit. Preferably, the step unit is integrally formed by bending process, and each step unit is welded and fixed to the support plate 200. This arrangement has a simple structure and good stress distribution.

[0023] Furthermore, the support plate 200 is driven by a motor, preferably the motor drives the support plate to rotate via a reducer.

[0024] Furthermore, handrails 400 are fixed at both ends of the step 100. Preferably, there are two handrails 400, which are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the step 100. The function of the handrails is to further increase the safety of using the step.

[0025] Preferably, there are 3-5 step units.

[0026] This utility model further discloses a motorhome that includes the aforementioned flip-up step.

[0027] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model.
