DESCRIPCIÓNDESCRIPTION

Rampa eléctricaElectric ramp

La presente invención se refiere a una rampa eléctrica diseñada para permitir la entrada a y la salida de personas de espacios con desniveles de forma segura, proporcionando la rampa eléctrica una superficie de paso de pendiente suave para salvar dicho desnivel. The present invention refers to an electric ramp designed to allow people to enter and exit spaces with uneven levels safely, the electric ramp providing a smoothly sloping passage surface to bridge said unevenness.

Más concretamente, la invención proporciona una rampa eléctrica conformada por una superficie de paso móvil que pivota desde una posición vertical plegada hasta una posición desplegada, salvando la altura de un desnivel en dicha posición desplegada, mediante un actuador eléctrico.More specifically, the invention provides an electric ramp formed by a movable passage surface that pivots from a folded vertical position to a deployed position, overcoming the height of a slope in said deployed position, by means of an electric actuator.

De esta forma, la rampa eléctrica de la invención permite, por ejemplo, salvar el desnivel de un escalón, tal como un escalón entre el suelo de un piso y la plataforma de un ascensor, cuando ésta se despliega, volviendo de nuevo a su posición vertical plegada en caso de no ser necesario su uso.In this way, the electric ramp of the invention makes it possible, for example, to overcome the unevenness of a step, such as a step between the floor of a floor and the platform of an elevator, when it is deployed, returning to its position again. vertical folded in case its use is not necessary.

Son bien conocidas las rampas manuales, esencialmente consistentes en cuñas, que permiten solventar el problema de subir o bajar un pequeño escalón, por ejemplo destinadas a personas con movilidad reducida. Habitualmente, estas rampas deben disponerse en el área del desnivel a salvar con ayuda de otra persona diferente al usuario, lo que va en detrimento de su independencia y facilidad de movimiento.Manual ramps are well known, essentially consisting of wedges, which make it possible to solve the problem of going up or down a small step, for example intended for people with reduced mobility. Usually, these ramps must be arranged in the area of the unevenness to be bridged with the help of someone other than the user, which is detrimental to their independence and ease of movement.

También son conocidas rampas eléctricas que permiten salvar desniveles, por ejemplo para facilitar la entrada de un usuario en silla de ruedas a un vehículo (tal como se describe, por ejemplo, en la ES2377866T3). Estas rampas eléctricas conocidas suelen ser voluminosas y pesadas, no siendo adecuadas para permitir salvar desniveles tales como pequeños escalones en espacios estrechos.Electric ramps are also known that make it possible to overcome unevenness, for example to facilitate the entry of a wheelchair user to a vehicle (as described, for example, in ES2377866T3). These known electric ramps are usually bulky and heavy, not being adequate to allow overcoming unevenness such as small steps in narrow spaces.

La presente invención soluciona estas desventajas de las rampas eléctricas conocidas, proporcionando una rampa plegable y adaptable a cualquier espacio, fácilmente manejable por el propio usuario que pretende salvar el desnivel de un escalón, por ejemplo a la salida o la entrada de un ascensor, un portal, etc.The present invention solves these disadvantages of known electric ramps, providing a folding ramp adaptable to any space, easily manageable by the user himself who intends to overcome the unevenness of a step, for example at the exit or entrance of an elevator, a portal, etc.

Así, la rampa eléctrica de la invención está conformada esencialmente por una superficie de paso, que constituye la rampa propiamente dicha, unida de forma basculante a un soporte y asociado éste a un actuador lineal, que transforma el movimiento lineal en un movimiento de giro para el plegado/desplegado de la rampa. El movimiento del actuador lineal está controlado por un microinterruptor de posición y asociado a un pulsador de ascenso/descenso accionable por un usuario, así como a correspondientes interruptores de final de carrera.Thus, the electric ramp of the invention is essentially made up of a passage surface, which constitutes the ramp itself, pivotally attached to a support and associated with a linear actuator, which transforms the linear movement into a rotary movement for the folding / unfolding of the ramp. Actuator movement Linear is controlled by a position microswitch and associated with an up / down button that can be operated by a user, as well as corresponding limit switches.
