ABSTRACT:
A ladder support erectable onto a ladder for supporting workmen or materials. The ladder support includes a platform and at least two tensionable chain members. The platform is connectable in a generally horizontal position to a ladder rung, after which one chain member is interconnectable between one end of the platform and the upper adjacent ladder rung and another chain member is interconnectable either between the same end of the platform and the lower adjacent rung or the opposite end of the platform and the upper adjacent rung or both for added strength. The platform includes a lower plate connectable to the platform by screws, the mating of the two forming an elongated cavity into which a ladder rung is held. The plate mounting to the platform is adjustable so that the platform may be adjustably positioned fore and aft on the ladder rung.
