Lift ramp

Abstract

An adjustable ramp apparatus installed as part of a flat surface, such as a deck, adapted for angular elevation to an inclined position for providing a ramp between the platform level and the entryway door sill level of a trailer-type home. The apparatus is elevated by means of an actuator-driven mechanical linkage located under the surface of the primary ramp platform adjacent to the trailer type home or structure. When the actuator is disengaged, the ramp returns to a lowered position so that the door to the home is not blocked. An alternative embodiment includes a secondary threshold ramp located beneath the surface of the primary ramp platform that moves into place as the apparatus is actuated to fill the gap between the door sill and the elevated primary ramp platform.
