ABSTRACT:
A personnel platform assembly and antenna support assembly for wireless communication transmitting and receiving devices such as antennas used in at least cellular telephone networks. The support assembly includes a support frame connectable upon an aerial tower which is adapted for supporting wireless communication transmitting and receiving devices thereupon. A connecting assembly is provided for fixing the support assembly at an above-ground elevation upon the aerial tower and a guide rail is suspended at a distance about the connecting assembly or central column of the tower. The guide rail is adapted for accepting a coupling to the wireless communication transmitting or receiving device and the coupling is continuously positionable along a length of the guide rail for accommodating variable positioning of the wireless communication transmitting or receiving device about the aerial tower. Suspension arms are connected as part of the connecting assembly between the guide rail and tower or its extension for suspending the guide rail thereabout. A plurality of substantially upright posts may be connected upon the guide rail at a lower end of each of the upright posts and each of the plurality of posts then be connected to a hand rail distally from the lower end. At least one optional floor deck panel establishes a platform for supporting installation and service personnel. The coupling is adapted to pivot about a substantially horizontal axis for accommodating down-tilt of a wireless communication transmitting or receiving device supported thereupon and the coupling is adapted for sliding movement along the guide rail thereby accommodating continuous operation of a wireless communication transmitting or receiving device during a repositioning procedure thereof.
