A portable vehicle ladder system employs a hinged ladder with a slideable extension having moveable rungs to adjustably vary the length of the ladder. The ladder's hinges allow it to be used as a straight ladder or in a plurality of configurations, including as a table support. The ladder is removeably secured to the vehicle by an upper ladder support bracket mounted on the vehicle on which the ladder is placed. Also mounted on the vehicle is a lower ladder connection system, in which handle controlled latches secure the lower end of the ladder and permit the ladder to be unlatched and removed from the vehicle when it is to be used independently of the vehicle. The system can also be installed onto vehicles with existing, permanently mounted ladders.

Latches are used to secure the legs of a stepladder during transport or while the ladder is leaned up against a wall or other surface. Embodiments for both extruded and solid-leg ladders are disclosed. A latch according to the invention includes a first latch portion mounted to one of the legs of the stepladder, and a second latch portion hingedly affixed to the first latch portion. In an unlatched state, the second portion is folded out of the way, enabling the stepladder to be used as a stepladder, and in a latched state, the second portion folded onto the other leg of the stepladder to hold the two legs together. A method according to the invention of latching the legs of a stepladder having a set of front legs with steps spanning right and left inside portions and a set of back legs also right and left inside portions, comprises the steps of: providing a latch with first and second hinged portions, fastening the first portion to the inside portion of one of the front legs between tow of the steps, and folding the second portion on onto one of the back legs so that the legs are latched together.

The ladder system is disposed between two spaced storage shelves of the types found in crowded warehouses. The ladder is mounted on overhead guide tracks and may be moved longitudinally along the shelves and laterally between the shelves. Locating means are provided for immobilizing the ladder against movement laterally and longitudinally. The locating means includes a pair of spring-loaded casters and rubber pads at the lower end of the ladder and a pair of braking mechanisms overlying and engageable with the guide tracks when subjected to the weight of the user to prevent movement of the ladder at the top thereof either intentionally or unintentionally. Finally, a lateral brake is carried by the ladder which prevents the roller carriage from moving laterally. The brake is applied when the ladder is in use.

A system for erecting a ladder stand for hunting has a pivoting base assembly connected to a bottom end of a ladder, and a pair of support legs pivotally attached to respective sides of an upper section of the ladder. The pivoting base assembly includes first and second foot pad members, anchoring stakes for anchoring the foot pad members to the ground, a base frame pivotally connected to the foot pad members, and first and second receiver tubes connected to the base frame for receiving the bottom end of the ladder. The pivoting base assembly receives and anchors the bottom end of the ladder and allows the ladder to be easily moved from a horizontal position to an upright position. The support legs have ground pegs at their lower ends for engaging the ground to support the ladder stand in an intermediate position as the ladder stand is being erected.

A ladder is equipped with a stabilizing device. The stabilizing device resists movements of the ladder's feet which would occur in response to movements of a ladder's user while on the ladder. The stabilizing device holds the ladder's feet and provides transverse and longitudinal structure to provide counter forces to the ladder's feet to hold the ladder's feet against movement. The stabilizing device may have rigid bars forming a box structure extending between the ladder's feet or may be formed as a solid panel. The stabilizing device may be retrofitted to existing ladders.

The invention provides a marine invisible ladder way, and belongs to the field of accommodation ladder of a ship. The marine invisible ladder way comprises a fixed ladder way and a movable ladder way, wherein, ladders of the movable ladder way and the fixed ladder way can be meshed with each other; the movable ladder way is connected with the fixed ladder way through a hinge mounted on the fixed ladder way; the movable ladder way and the fixed ladder way are folded or expanded through being connected with a hydraulic drive floating connecting rod mechanism, and the operation is convenient and fast and the running is steady; after being folded and restored to the original positions, the movable ladder way and the fixed ladder way are hidden below a deck and in a cabin body on the inner side of a ship board; the bottom surface and the back surface of the movable ladder way of the marine invisible ladder way, which respectively serve as a part of the deck of a ship body and a part of a side board surface of the ship body, coincide with the corresponding deck surface and the corresponding side board surface of the ship body to form a whole and become a part of the ship body, so that the area of the deck is not reduced, and the appearance of the ship cannot be influenced; when the marine invisible ladder way needs to be expanded during ship embarkation and disembarkation, the movable ladder way turns outwards at an angle of 180 degrees towards the side board of the ship relative to the fixed ladder way under the push of a hydraulic cylinder, thereby forming an integrated continuous ladder way extending downwards to the water surface, effectively reducing the height of a freeboard, and facilitating ship embarkation and disembarkation of people.

The invention discloses a liftable herringbone ladder, which comprises a fixed ladder, a transitional ladder and an elevator. A rotatable connection is formed between the upper end of the fixed ladder and the upper end of the transitional ladder, and a vertical sliding connection is formed between the elevator and the transitional ladder; Wherein, the fixed ladder and the transitional ladder can be opened and positioned to form a herringbone ladder or folded and positioned to form a straight ladder. The end protrudes from the bottom end of the transitional ladder. This technical solution has the following advantages: the elevator slides relative to the transitional ladder so that its top end protrudes from the transitional ladder top or/and its bottom end protrudes from the transitional ladder bottom, which can improve the entire herringbone ladder or one-character ladder. The height of the ladder can make the herringbone ladder suitable for various places even if the ground of the place is uneven or is a ladder, the ladder has a variety of adjustment functions for the elevator and the ladder height adjustment range is large.
