Abstract:
Device at inclined floors in passenger bridges for connection between a terminal building and a ship or an aircraft, includes two or more consecutive walking tunnels adjustable to be inclined in relation to the horizontal plane, and which include horizontal resting planes, wherein the floor of the walking tunnel extends out from a floor portion constituting the resting plane in opposite directions from the resting plane. A first short end of the respective floor of the walking tunnel is pivotally fixed to the floor portion, constituting the resting plane, the other short end of the respective floor rests on a sliding or rolling surface arranged so that the floor can move lengthwise relative to the sliding or rolling surface. The floor portion forming the resting plane is arranged to be pivoted about a horizontal axis via an electric actuator or hydraulic cylinder, whereby the resting planes assume a horizontal position.
