Abstract:
A portable, height-adjustable gangway includes a lower tower structure comprising a lower landing and a lower movement assembly comprising a first set of wheels permitting the lower tower structure to travel over ground, an upper tower structure comprising an upper landing, an upper movement assembly comprising a second set of wheels permitting the upper tower structure to travel over ground, and an extending tower support connecting the upper movement assembly and the upper landing and comprising expandable struts configured to move the upper landing towards and away from the upper movement assembly, and a travellator pivotally connected to the lower tower structure and pivotally connected to the upper tower structure such that, when the expandable struts of the tower support extend at least one of towards and away from the upper movement assembly, the escalator tilts. The escalator can be a continuous set of stairs, a gondola-like trolley, or both.

Claim (Index 19):
The gangway system according to  claim 16 , wherein:\n the inner track comprises:\n a fixed lower angled portion; \n a movable upper angled portion; \n an upper expandable/contractible telescoping section; \n a lower expandable/contractible telescoping section; \n an inner track first lower pivot; \n an inner track second lower pivot; \n an upper turn-around portion comprising:\n a lower end pivotally connected to an upper end of the fixed lower angled portion by the inner track first lower pivot; and \n an upper end slidably connected to the upper expandable/contractible telescoping section; \n \n a lower turn-around portion comprising:\n a lower end pivotally connected to a lower end of the fixed lower angled portion by the inner track second lower pivot; and \n an upper end slidably connected to the lower expandable/contractible telescoping section; \n \n an inner track first upper pivot pivotally connecting the movable upper angled portion to the upper expandable/contractible telescoping section; and \n an inner track second upper pivot pivotally connecting the movable upper angled portion to the lower expandable/contractible telescoping section; and \n the outer track comprises:\n a lower angled portion; \n an upper angled portion; \n an outer track first upper pivot; \n an outer track second upper pivot; \n an outer track first lower pivot; \n an outer track second lower pivot; \n a lower turn-around portion comprising:\n a lower end pivotally connected to a lower end of the lower angled portion by the outer track second lower pivot; and \n an upper end pivotally connected to a lower end of the upper angled portion by the outer track second upper pivot; and \n \n an upper turn-around portion having:\n a lower end pivotally connected to an upper end of the lower angled portion by the outer track first lower pivot; and \n an upper end pivotally connected to an upper end of the upper angled portion.
