Definitions

  • the invention pertains to hoists or lifts in general, and more specifically to a garage hoist that is raised by moving a vehicle back and forth on a pair of tilting ramps having opposed fiilcrums, thereby elevating the hoist into a convenient position for access to the vehicle's undercarriage.
  • U.S. patent 4,486,006 teaches a self-leveling vehicle support ramp having a pair of side-by-side tracks.
  • the tracks pivot on a stand from an inclined position to a horizontal position under the weight of the vehicle moving fully onto the tracks.
  • Telescoping dampers in the form of cylinders, are located adjacent to the ends of the tracks to retard the arcuate movement of the tracks.
  • Patent No. 5,015,146 issued to Barnes et al. is for a vehicle display lift having a vertical mast containing a hoist mechanism for raising and lowering a movable carriage.
  • a cantilever support member on the carriage extends outward and has a vehicle support frame on the outer end for vehicle support.
  • a ramp allows a vehicle to be driven on the support frame at ground level.
  • the vehicle support frame pivots forward when elevated and is secured by a spring-loaded safety latch when the carriage is at the top of the mast.
  • U.S. patent 5,141,371 discloses an inclined lifting apparatus for storing aircraft in a stacked or tiered position to increase utilization of available hanger space.
  • the apparatus utilizes hydraulics to lift the aircraft.
  • Isogal in U.S. patent 5,236,065 teaches a movable one-post lift for maintenance of a vehicle, which includes a base with transport wheels and an upright support post attached to the rear end.
  • a driving mechanism is disposed in the post with a cantilever beam for supporting the body of a vehicle.
  • Patent No. 5,641,150 issued to Rober is for a tilting lift apparatus providing access to the undercarriage of a vehicle.
  • a base pivotally mounts at least two longitudinally extending ramps which move from an angle position to a level position when a vehicle is moved onto the ramps.
  • a movement attenuating assembly is connected to the ramps for slowing their movement.
  • a tilter leg is pivotally connected to the ramp and swings down to a level position.
  • Carter's patent No. 6,619,620 is directed to a hoist that includes a lower and an upper platform capable of moving between a position from under a vehicle to a raised position, thus permitting access to the vehicle undercarriage.
  • the upper platform is raised with a hydraulic cylinder and locking arms arrest the telescopic movement.
  • the primary object of the invention is to simplify the concept of a hoist to the point that no external force is necessary to lift a vehicle by using the weight of the vehicle oscillating back and forth on a pivoting platform in a seesaw manner.
  • the actual lifting process is accomplished by reversing the pivot point between two fulcrums.
  • the fulcrums function independently, when the center of gravity of the vehicle is shifted from one fulcrum to the other by the movement of the vehicle itself when simply driving back and forth.
  • the ramp is normally level when backing up. Lifting a vehicle to the height of a man may be accomplished in a few passes back and forth according to the geometry of the hoist relative to the length of the platform.
  • the invention is adaptable to vehicles of any size and weight, from golf carts to tanks, as the only limiting factor is the structural integrity of the platform and the fulcrums. It is easily seen that the structure size and strength is adapted to the actual vehicle use and is accomplished in a simple straightforward ratio.
  • Another object of the invention permits easy adjustment between the ramps of the platform to accommodate different wheel widths. Since the tracks may or may not be fixed stationary to the floor, or attached to a physical structure, sliding the tracks apart or together is easily accomplished. Even when the tracks are bolted to the floor, one set may have multiple holes permitting simple unbolting the specific set and sliding the longitudinal pair in the desired direction. Still another object of the invention is that the garage hoist is completely above ground and does not require any modification of a building. The hoist only requires a flat rigid surface, preferably a concrete slab or solid floor, and sufficient height in the structure to permit a motor vehicle to be lifted high enough for a person to work underneath.
  • the hoist is environmentally friendly since there are no contaminants used, or pumps, high pressure hoses and fittings that have the propensity for leaking liquid. Instead, the invention uses only low pressure fluid that is produced, not by positive pump pressure, but by suction of a set of cylinders when the ramp is elevated by the vehicle pivoting on the opposite fulcrum.
  • Safety features are also included in the invention that lock the height of the platform in place at any level or progression in the elevating process.
  • the ramp incorporates a no slip surface which tenaciously grips the vehicle's tires to prevent slipping when the ramp tracks tilt in one direction or the other.
  • the ramp may also include a vehicle safety stop at each end of the ramp and a ladder may be utilized for a person to come down from the elevated ramp.
  • a further object of the invention is directed to the ease of installation, as the hoist is preferably shipped in parts for assembly in the field.
  • the assembly procedures are limited to simple mechanical attachment using conventional threaded fasteners well known in the art and therefore no special skills or tools are necessary. Because the hoist is shipped unassembled, and due to the simplicity of design, the entire apparatus is unusually cost effective particularly relative to conventional hydraulic systems.
  • Yet another object is that no electrical power is required from the mains, as the hoist is completely self contained.
  • remote switches and receivers energize the valves with a battery located adjacent to each valve.
  • a final object of the invention is that the telescoping cylinders, acting as fulcrums, also retard the pivotal movement of the track platform. Since the action of the cylinders is controlled in the rigid and movable position, when the vehicle is driven over the center of the rigid cylinder, the opposed movable cylinder is drawn upward, thus creating a negative pressure on the inlet and drawing hydraulic fluid into the opposed cylinders. As there are restrictions in the connection caused by the physical size of the lines and orifices, the cylinders act as dampers to slow down the pivotal travel of the platform, instead of a jarring effect when the platform pivots under the pressure of the vehicle. Further, when the platform is in its fully raised position and then lowered, all four cylinders force the hydraulic fluid back into the reservoirs, and the cylinders perform as dampers to slow the decent in an even and manner.

Abstract

Cette invention a pour objet un palan basculant (20) servant à lever un véhicule moteur (32) pour faciliter l’accès au châssis dudit véhicule en utilisant le poids du véhicule somme seule et unique source d’énergie. Deux rampes parallèles (22) dont l’approche est effilée (36) forment une pente graduelle et permettent de placer le véhicule sur les rails. Ces rails sont reliés entre eux pour former une plate-forme rectangulaire de largeur réglable entre les rails congruents au pas des roues. Un point d’appui avant (56) et un point d’appui arrière (74) pivotants sont reliés à chacune des rampes pour former un point de bascule lorsque le véhicule monte sur lesdites rampes et que le centre de gravité du véhicule se retrouve à l’avant ou à l’arrière du point d’appui qui aura été réglé en position fixe. Le mouvement du véhicule sur les rails incite la plate-forme à pivoter sur le point d’appui sélectionné en position fixe. Les mouvements subséquents avant-arrière du véhicule font lever le palan par incréments au fur et à mesure du renversement séquentiel des points de bascule.
