Abstract
A platform system is configured for use within an internal cabin of a vehicle. The platform system includes a base, and a support plate moveably coupled to the base. The support plate is configured to be moved in relation to the base to allow a wheelchair to be selectively secured to and removed from the support plate. For example, the support plate is moveable between a first position in which the wheelchair is supported on the support plate in a forward-facing position within the internal cabin, and a second position in which at least a portion of the support plate is moved into an aisle of the internal cabin to allow the wheelchair to be moved onto and off the support plate.
