Abstract:
A ramp deployment system for deploying and securing first and second ramps to the entrance of a container-type vehicle using a ratchet strap arrangement is disclosed. The ratchet strap arrangement includes first and second ratchet strap devices each having a tightening strap coupled to a respective hook and collar mechanism that includes a closable hook operable to engage a collar to form a loop portion by the tightening strap around the undercarriage of the container-type vehicle. A ratchet mechanism is operatively coupled to the tightening strap for tightening or loosening the tightening strap relative to the first and second ramps when the ratchet strap mechanism is actuated. The ratchet mechanism is also engaged to a fixed length strap having a hook portion configured to engage the cross rungs of the first and second ramps and secure the ratchet strap arrangement securely between container-type vehicle and the first and second ramps. In some embodiments, a pair of connecting bars may be coupled between the first and second ramps to provide structural reinforcement between the first and second ramps.

Claim (Index 2):
The ramp deployment system of  claim 1 , wherein the loop strap portion formed by the distal end of the tightening strap is configured to engage an undercarriage of the container-type vehicle and the proximal end of the tightening strap is coupled to the ratchet mechanism such that actuation of the ratchet mechanism incrementally tightens the loop strap portion formed by the tightening strap relative to the undercarriage of the container-type vehicle.
