CA 2610182

A pit platform (10) within a pit (11) located in a floor, having a deck (12) that can be raised and lowered by a lifting means (14) between a raised position in which the deck is substantially level with the floor and a second position in which the deck is beneath the level of the floor. The deck is supported by a plurality of cables (18) controlled by the lifting means to effect substantially vertical movement of the deck within the pit. A method of moving the deck between the raised and second positions is also described. The pit platform has particular application to a workshop, enabling workers standing on the platform to position themselves at a comfortable height below a vehicle that is being worked upon. In the raised position the platform provides a safety cover for the pit.

Le plateau est supporté par une pluralité de câbles (18) contrôlés par le moyen de levage pour effectuer un déplacement sensiblement vertical du plateau dans la fosse. L'invention a également trait à un procédé pour le déplacement du plateau entre les positions abaissée et élevée. La plate-forme de fosse est particulièrement utile dans un atelier, permettant au personnel de se mettre debout sur la plate-forme pour se positionner à une hauteur confortable en-dessous d'un véhicule sur lequel ils travaillent.
