Lifting platform for lifting vehicles

A lifting platform comprising two lifting devices arranged at a distance to one another, the two lifting devices being oriented towards a common longitudinal center axis of the lifting platform and between which a working space for lifting and lowering of vehicles is provided,

• wherein each lifting device comprises a carrier which is movable up and down, and each carrier includes at least two support arms, which are respectively mounted pivotably about at least two pivot axes on the carrier, so that the at least two support arms of each carrier are orientable parallel to the longitudinal center axis in a starting position and are pivotable into the working space between the carriers in a use position,
• wherein a longitudinal axis of each carrier is oriented parallel to the longitudinal center axis, and a straight connecting line of each carrier, extends through the at least two pivot axes of each carrier, and the at least two pivot axes of each carrier are arranged at a distance from each other in such a manner that the straight connecting line of each carrier is oriented at an acute angle to the longitudinal axis of each carrier, and at least a first pivot axis of the at least two pivot axes of each carrier has a greater distance to the longitudinal center axis than at least a second pivot axis of the at least two pivot axes of each carrier, and
• wherein opposite ones of at least the first and/or second pivot axes of the respective carriers are arranged opposite one another on the respective carriers in a mirror-inverted manner relative to the longitudinal center axis.
