US Patent 12109155 Wheelchair lift assembly for vehicles

A wheelchair lift can be easily installed on a standard truck or SUV, wherein the wheelchair lift includes an extendable and retractable platform, a motorized lifting mechanism, a remote control, and a safety stop mechanism that prevents the wheelchair from rolling off of the platform during use. The wheelchair lift is mountable underneath the driver's side or passenger's side of the vehicle, and folds into a compact unit that is positioned along the base of the vehicle chassis in a position where a running board or step might normally be located. The wheelchair lift may be easily removed from one vehicle and installed on another vehicle.
