OPENTECHNICAL PUBLICATION OT-2026-000001006 Step apparatus for lift device Published: 2026-09-15T19:03:43.456573Z Permanent URL: https://opentechnical.org/p/OT-2026-000001006 Categories: Lifting, Positioning & Manipulation > Lift Tables and Positioners ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ABSTRACT A deck apparatus for a lift device includes a frame, a deck, a member, a cable, and a cylinder. The deck is pivotally coupled with the frame. The member is coupled with the frame and configured to translate along the frame in an upwards direction or a downwards direction. The cable is configured to operably couple the deck with the member. The cylinder is coupled with the frame and the member. The deck is pivotable between a stowed position and a deployed position. Pivoting of the deck from the stowed position to the deployed position drives translation of the member along the frame in the upwards direction. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenTechnical publication OT-2026-000001006 Published 2026-09-15T19:03:43.456573Z https://opentechnical.org/p/OT-2026-000001006
