BRIDGE FOR PASSENGER BOARDING AND ALIGHTING
The invention relates to a bridge that comprises a central structure (1) provided with cabin (2) at one end and a ramp (3) at the other end, said central structure (1) pivoting according to the relative position between said cabin (2) and said ramp (3). The central structure (1) comprises plates (4) that form a smooth floor or a staircase. The bridge comprises at least one sensor (5) that detects any change in the angle of inclination between the central structure (1) and the cabin (2); and actuating means (6), such that when a change in said angle of inclination is detected, one end of said cabin (2) moves vertically to maintain a fixed separation in height between the plates (4). The invention allows the vertical distance between the steps of the staircase to be kept constant, despite variations in the operating height.
