Abstract:
A suspension lift apparatus includes a platform, a plurality of direction changing sheaves and lifting sheaves mounted to the platform, a plurality of cables and a lifting mechanism positioned on the platform. Ends of cables mounted above the platform extend through the sheaves and are coupled at the opposite cable ends to the lifting mechanism disposed on the platform. Actuation of the lifting mechanism causes the platform to rise or descend. The cables are anchorable to a structure such as a ceiling above the platform. The suspension lift apparatus may include legs to provide an overhead anchor point.

Claim (Index 1):
A suspension lift apparatus comprising a vehicle platform comprising a front and rear end, opposing sides between the front and rear end and a central channel formed on the platform along a long axis of the platform, the platform further comprising a first pair of sheaves mounted on opposing sides of the platform vertically with respect to a horizontal plane of the platform and in axial alignment with the long axis of the platform, and positioned between the front and rear ends of the platform; a second pair of sheaves mounted on opposing sides of the platform coplanar with the platform, the second pair of sheaves positioned adjacent the rear end of the platform, a third pair of sheaves mounted at opposing sides of the platform vertically with respect to the horizontal plane of the platform and in axial alignment with a short axis orthogonal to the long axis of the platform, a fourth pair of sheaves mounted adjacent each other at an end of the channel proximate the rear end of the platform, each of the fourth pair of sheaves mounted coplanar with the platform, and a fifth pair of sheaves mounted in axial alignment with the fourth pair of sheaves;\n a lifting mechanism coupled to the platform and positioned in the channel in axial alignment therewith; and two pairs of cables, each cable of said pairs of cables coupled at a first end to a first end of the lifting mechanism, wherein one cable of a first pair of cables is routed around one of the fourth pair of sheaves, one of the second pair of sheaves and one of the first pair of sheaves and comprises a second end fixable to a structure above the platform, and the other cable of the first pair is routed around the other of the fourth pair of sheaves, the other of the second pair of sheaves and the other of the first pair of sheaves and comprises a second end fixable to a structure above the platform, and wherein one cable of a second pair of cables is routed around one of the fifth pair of sheaves and one of the third pair of sheaves and comprises a second end fixable to a structure above the platform, and the other of the second pair of cables is routed around the other of the fifth pair of sheaves and the other of the third pair of sheaves and comprises a second end fixable to a structure above the platform.
