Abstract
An aerial lift platform includes a door having one or more insulating liner layers. The door of the aerial lift platform is tightly bonded to a rim of an opening of an aerial lift platform by at least one nonconductive fastener, such that the one or more insulating liner layers of the door are tightly bonded to at least one insulting liner of the aerial lift platform, such that a complete insulating liner is formed around both the aerial lift platform and the door. The one or more insulating liner layers of the door are able to be connected to one or more attachments via one or more nonconductive fasteners.
Claims18
A door for an aerial lift platform, comprising:
- at least one insulating body covering an exterior surface of the door;
- at least one air gap between the at least one insulating body and the aerial lift platform;
- wherein the door is configured to fit into an opening in a side wall of the aerial lift platform;
- and
- wherein the door is configured to attach to at least one insulating layer of the aerial lift platform via at least one fastener
- wherein an overlap of the at least one insulating layer of the aerial lift platform extends into the opening in the side wall of the aerial lift platform, and wherein, when the door is in a closed position, an interior body of the door directly contacts the overlap of the at least one insulating layer.
A door for an aerial lift platform, comprising:
- a first insulating layer covering forming an exterior surface of the door;
- a second insulating layer interior to the first insulating layer;
- and
- at least one step and/or at least one tooling tray attached to and extending from an interior surface of the door,
- wherein the door is configured to fit into an opening in a side wall of the aerial lift platform, and
- wherein the door is configured to attach to at least one insulating layer of the aerial lift platform via at least one fastener
- one or more standoffs that separate the first insulating layer of the door and the at least one insulating layer of the aerial lift platform,
- wherein the at least one fastener includes a first bolt and a second bolt,
- wherein the one or more standoffs are attached to the first insulating layer of the door by a first bolt and attached to the at least one insulating layer of the aerial lift platform by a second bolt.
A door for an aerial lift platform, comprising:
- a first insulating layer forming an exterior surface of the door;
- a second insulating layer interior to the first insulating layer;
- wherein the door is configured to fit into an opening in a side wall of the aerial lift platform;
- wherein an overlap of at least one insulating layer of the aerial lift platform extends into the opening in the side wall of the aerial lift platform, and wherein, when the door is in a closed position, the second insulating layer of the door directly contacts the overlap of the at least one insulating layer;
- and
- wherein the door is configured to attach to at least one insulating layer of the aerial lift platform via at least one fastener.
