ABSTRACT:
A device for automatically closing the elevator deck of lift gate is actuated by a drive device and constituted by a parallelogram deformable under the action of the drive device. The arm of the parallelogram intended to support the elevator deck extends beyond its point of articulation on the lower adjacent arm of the parallelogram, thus defining an extension. The elevator deck is articulated on the lower end of the extension of the arm supporting the elevator desk. An articulation element of adjustable variable length is mounted to pivot, on the one hand, on the elevator deck and, on the other hand, at an appropriate point of the chassis or of the upper arm of the deformable parallelogram, so that the distance between these two points of articulation of the element of articulation of variable length decreases when the lift gate is being raised. When the element of articulation takes its position of minimum length, it acts as a fixed connecting rod causing the elevator deck to pivot at the end of lift of the lift gate from a position determined by the prior adjustment in length of the element of articulation to a new position.
