Abstract

See full text

The present invention regards a platform and elevation support arrangement (1) and a method for manufacture thereof. An elevation support (3) is to be hingedly mounted to a platform (5) around a first axis (X1) extending along a first direction (B1) via a hinge member (7) arranged between the platform (5) and the elevation support (3); and wherein the elevation support (3) is configured to be locked to the platform (5) in a fixed position by means of an adjustable locking mechanism (9), comprising a first and a second opening (11′, 11″) arranged at a first distance (D1) from each other and comprising a first and second sliding shaft element (13′, 13″) arranged at a second distance (D2) from each other each configured to slide along a second direction (B2) perpendicular to the first axis (X1). The method comprises the steps of providing the platform (5), the elevation support (3) and the adjustable locking mechanism (9); mounting the elevation support (3) to the platform (5); adjusting the adjustable locking mechanism (9) so that the first distance (D1) corresponds with the second distance (D2); and locking the adjustable locking mechanism (9) by sliding the first shaft element (13′) into the first opening (11′) and by sliding the second shaft element (13″) into the second opening (11″).
