A ramp for a vehicle comprises an elongated track with a leading end and a trailing end. The leading end engages a flatbed platform of a vehicle, and the trailing end engages a ground surface so that there is a slope between the leading and trailing ends when the ramp is in a first usage. The elongated track is constituted by multiple engaging elements. The elements are movable relative to each other so that the elements are capable of being packed in a stack to define a platform for a wheel of a vehicle. This permits raising of the wheel of a vehicle above the ground level. There is a hinge between adjacent elements, and the elements of the ramp are hinged at opposite ends for relative folding to permit for a stacked relationship about adjacent ends.
Une rampe pour véhicule comprend une voie allongée avec une extrémité avant et une extrémité arrière. L'extrémité avant s'accouple à une plate-forme de véhicule, et l'extrémité arrière s'accouple à une surface du sol, de sorte qu'il n'y a pas de pente entre les extrémités avant et arrière lorsque la rampe est à son premier stade d'utilisation. La voie allongée est constituée de multiples éléments d'accouplement. Ces éléments sont mobiles entre eux, de sorte qu'ils peuvent être empilés pour définir une plate-forme pour une roue de véhicule. Ce procédé permet l'élévation de la roue du véhicule au-dessus du sol. Une articulation est intercalée entre les éléments adjacents, et les éléments de la rampe sont articulés aux extrémités opposées pour que le repliement relatif assure une relation d'empilage avec les extrémités adjacentes.
