Abstract
The present invention describes an improved skeletal frame for a revolving vehicle platform turntable. The improved device is used to support a vehicle turntable and easily installed in any location. The skeletal frame includes a cylindrical circular tubular body made of 2 semicircular sections, a main frame structure including web arms are connected to both sides of the cylindrical circular tubular body, a roller chain pulley sprocket assembly is attached to the center cross section of the main structure frame for driving the skeletal frame. It is preferably installed below ground level so that the upper level of the turntable is level with the ground. Another improved component of this invention is the absence of welded parts.
