Abstract Description of an easily manageable elevating platform for use by the inspectors of the Italian National Accident Prevention Institute (ENPI) called upon to inspect hoisting equipment in undertakings. Platforms of this type should not take up much space; they should also be easily dismantled and transported, light, easy to reassemble, stable, with automatic controls and safe to operate. The article describes in detail the mechanical components and the electro-hydraulic operating and control system for a platform meeting the above requirements.
