Footbridge for use between platform of vehicle i.e. vessel, and off-shore construction, has movable parts moveable in longitudinal direction relative to each other, and flexible body extending along ends of movable parts

摘要

The footbridge has two movable parts moveable in a longitudinal direction relative to each other. A flexible body extends along an end (7) and another end of the movable parts, and is partially overlapped with the movable parts. An upper surface (13) of one of the movable parts moves on an upper surface (14) of the other movable part. A frame part (16) of the former movable part is connected to a base, where the former movable part moves around an axis that is parallel to a tread. The latter movable part has a half frame part (22) that supports a walkway. An independent claim is also included for a method for transferring goods and people between a platform of a vehicle and an off-shore construction.
