A height adjustable platform and method include a ratchet platform. In an embodiment, the ratchet platform is height adjustable and includes a platform upper assembly having a platform and a ratchet. The ratchet includes a platform riser tube and a ratchet rail secured to the platform riser tube. The ratchet platform further includes a platform lower assembly having a support column and a platform base. The support column is secured to the platform base. An end of the ratchet is proximate the platform and an opposing end of the ratchet is disposed within an interior of the support column. The platform base is adapted to be secured within a vehicle. The ratchet platform also includes a platform upper assembly actuator having a pedal sub assembly and an upper linkage. The upper linkage is attached to the pedal sub assembly. Actuation of the pedal sub assembly actuates the upper linkage. In addition, actuation of the upper linkage actuates the ratchet to adjust the height of the ratchet platform.

1. A ratchet platform, wherein the ratchet platform is height adjustable, comprising: a platform upper assembly comprising a platform and a ratchet, wherein the ratchet comprises a platform riser tube and a ratchet rail secured to the platform riser tube;a platform lower assembly comprising a support column and a platform base, wherein the platform base is substantially flat and comprises a platform base opening, and wherein the support column comprises a lower portion, and further wherein a portion of the lower portion is disposed in the platform base opening with the lower portion disposed on opposing sides of the platform base, wherein the support column is secured to the platform base, and wherein an end of the ratchet is proximate the platform and an opposing end of the ratchet is disposed within an interior of the support column, and further wherein the ratchet platform is adapted to be attached to a vehicle, wherein the vehicle has an interior, wherein the ratchet platform is adapted to be attached to the interior, wherein the ratchet platform comprises a singular bottommost flat surface, and wherein the interior comprises a floor, wherein a means of attachment directly secure the singular bottommost flat surface to the floor, and wherein the singular bottommost flat surface is in direct contact with the floor while the ratchet platform is attached to the interior;a platform upper assembly actuator comprising a pedal sub assembly and an upper linkage, wherein the upper linkage is attached to the pedal sub assembly, and wherein actuation of the pedal sub assembly actuates the upper linkage, and further wherein actuation of the upper linkage actuates the ratchet to adjust the height of the ratchet platform; andwherein the ratchet platform further comprises a ratchet platform attachment strap, and wherein the ratchet platform attachment strap is attached to the platform base and the platform upper assembly. 2. The ratchet platform of claim 1, wherein the platform upper assembly further comprises a toe queue. 3. The ratchet platform of claim 1, wherein the platform upper assembly further comprises a platform grating. 4. The ratchet platform of claim 1, further comprising a platform tube core disposed between the platform and the end of the ratchet proximate the platform. 5. The ratchet platform of claim 1, further comprising a plurality of platform gussets and a gusset wall disposed on a bottom side of the platform. 6. The ratchet platform of claim 1, further comprising pedal pivot supports, wherein the pedal sub assembly is attached to the pedal pivot supports. 7. The ratchet platform of claim 1, wherein the pedal sub assembly comprises a pedal linkage and a pedal, wherein the pedal is secured to the pedal linkage, and wherein the pedal and a portion of the pedal linkage are disposed outside of the support column, and further wherein another portion of the pedal linkage is disposed within the interior of the support column. 8. The ratchet platform of claim 7, wherein the another portion of the pedal linkage disposed within the interior of the support column is attached to the upper linkage. 9. The ratchet platform of claim 1, wherein the pedal sub assembly further comprises a torsion spring. 10. The ratchet platform of claim 1, wherein the support column comprises actuator grooves on opposing sides of the support column, and wherein the ratchet platform further comprises a ratchet pin that passes through the actuator grooves on each side of the support column and passes through the upper linkage. 11. The ratchet platform of claim 10, wherein the actuation of the upper linkage actuates the ratchet pin, and wherein actuation of the ratchet pin actuates the ratchet. 12. The ratchet platform of claim 11, wherein the ratchet pin is slidably disposed within the actuator groove. 13. The ratchet platform of claim 10, wherein contact between the ratchet pin and the ratchet rail prevents the platform upper assembly from descending and reducing height of the ratchet platform. 14. The ratchet platform of claim 1, further comprising an energy attenuation system secured to a bottom side of the platform base. 15. The ratchet platform of claim 14, further comprising a seat plate, wherein the energy attenuation system is secured to the seat plate. 16. The ratchet platform of claim 15, further comprising a base plate, wherein the seat plate is slidably engaged with the base plate. 17. The ratchet platform of claim 1, further comprising a ratchet platform attachment means for attaching the ratchet platform to an object. 18. The ratchet platform of claim 17, wherein the ratchet platform attachment means comprises a strap retractor and a strap. 19. The ratchet platform of claim 18, wherein the strap passes through an attachment opening in the platform. 20. The ratchet platform of claim 1, wherein the ratchet platform attachment strap is attached to the platform base by a strap receiving means.
