Abstract

See full text

A telescopic gangway is provided for handling the passengers of single-deck or double-deck passenger airplanes parked nose in at least at one of the doors of the main deck or upper deck, which doors are located in front of, above or behind the wing. Passengers go through the lateral rear door, a door which is located directly in front of or behind the wing and through a central door of the upper deck of a doubledeck aircraft. The telecopic gangway includes tunnel elements which may be swivelled over the wing of the airplane and can be telescoped with a cabin (3) that can be moved up to the door of the airplane. A frame (6) surrounds the tunnel elements. An extension arm is rigidly or movably fastened to the frame (6), on which the telescoping tunnel elements are suspended in a height-adjustable manner. A post (4) is arranged at a sufficient safe distance from the wing and the engine of the parked airplane. The frame (6) is mounted on this post (4) pivotably by an angle of 180.degree. around a vertical axis of rotation arranged centrally on the longitudinal axis of the tunnel elements (1, 2).
