Multi-Position Ladder and Portions Thereof

A ladder comprising:

• a front section including front rails and front rungs extending between the front rails;
• a rear section including rear rails and rear rungs extending between the rear rails;
• a first hinge and a second hinge that couple the rear section to the front section to enable movement of the rear section relative to the front section;
• a ladder top coupled to the front section;
• a first assembly of the first hinge, the first assembly having a first lock bar, wherein the first lock bar locks the first hinge into a respective locked state when the first lock bar is engaged with one of a first plurality of slots of the first hinge, and wherein the first lock bar unlocks the first hinge into a respective unlocked state when the first lock bar is disengaged from the first plurality of slots;
• a second assembly of the second hinge, the second assembly having a second lock bar, wherein the second lock bar locks the second hinge into the respective locked state when the second lock bar is engaged with one of a second plurality of slots of the second hinge and wherein the second lock bar unlocks the second hinge into the respective unlocked state when the second lock bar is disengaged from the second plurality of slots;
• an actuator having a user engagement portion including a first lever and a second lever attached to one or the front rungs,
• wherein the first lever is coupled to the first assembly via a first cable and a first connector, and the second lever is coupled to the second assembly via a second cable and a second connector,
• wherein the actuator is actuatable to simultaneously move both the first lock bar and the second lock bar in an upward and downward relationship relatively to the ladder top to selectively engage one of the first and second plurality of slots to transition the first hinge and the second hinge from the respective locked state thereof to the respective unlocked state thereof.
