Ramplåsanordning för en rampe på ett fordon

Patentradars sammanfattning

This invention discloses a ramp locking arrangement designed for vehicles—particularly tracked military vehicles—whose hull incorporates a hinged ramp operable between an open (folded-down) position and an essentially upright closed position. The key novelty is that the engagement member of the locking device, while in the locked position, permits upward movement of the ramp relative to the locking member, preventing damage to the locking arrangement when an upward force such as a mine blast acts on the ramp. The engagement member may incorporate a roller or slide element to facilitate this controlled relative movement, and the arrangement may include paired locking members at both lateral sides of the hull opening together with corresponding connection members on the ramp.
