| 254045000 | VEHICLE-BODY LIFTERS | 9 |
| 20080224107 | Device and System For Lifting a Motor Vehicle - A preferred embodiment of a system includes a lifting device for lifting a motor vehicle, a support structure for mounting the lifting device in a pit, and a carriage for supporting the lifting device from the support structure and being movable within the support structure. The system also includes a cover coupled to opposite sides of the carriage so that the cover extends away from the carriage and continuously between the opposite sides of the carriage. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20090026426 | Truck crane - The present invention relates to a truck crane with a winch, in particular a hoisting winch, which is mounted on the uppercarriage, wherein the truck crane includes means for raising and/or lowering the winch. | 01-29-2009 |
| 20090085020 | WHEEL-LESS PICK-UP TRUCK CAMPER WITH INTERNAL JACKS - The wheel-less camper comprises at least one jack mounted to the camper, the first jack being disposed inside the first sidewall. The camper may include a second jack, the second jack being disposed inside the second sidewall. Each wall of the camper may have an inner wall and an outer wall, the first jack being disposed between the inner and outer wall of the first sidewall and the second jack being disposed between the inner wall and outer wall of the second sidewall. The camper may also include third jack and a fourth jack. In one embodiment, the inner walls are omitted. In another embodiment, the inner wall includes a bulged area or an unevenness to accommodate one or more of the jacks. In another embodiment, the first jack may be a pull-out jack that is movable between a first position in which it is disposed inside the first sidewall and a second position in which it extends out from the first sidewall. The camper may include a second pull-out jack. | 04-02-2009 |
| 20090315004 | Container Lifting Device - A lifting device for lifting a shipping container off a flat bed of a truck is described. The device comprises a cross member and a pair of arms connected thereto. The upper ends of the arms engage in the connector castings at the upper end of an end of the container. The cross member carries near its ends a pair of guides through which a pair of legs are slidably mounted. The upper end of each leg has an outwardly directed lug. A block and tackle unit is connected between the lug and the cross member. There is a lifting device at each end of the container. When the unit is actuated the container is lifted off the flat bed so that the truck can move away and the container thereafter lowered on to the ground. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20100051884 | Infinitely Adjustable and Constrainable Movable Structure for a Vehicle Lift - A vehicle lift comprises a lifting mechanism configured to lift a vehicle for servicing, and at least one horizontal platform attached to a top of the lifting mechanism to engage with an underside of the vehicle. Adjustable slide members are movably attached to opposite ends of the horizontal platform and each are configured to move linearly in a horizontal path to align with the lifting points on the vehicle. Each slide member is both pivotally and slidingly engaged with the horizontal platform, and each slide member has a normally horizontal position. When the slide member is horizontal, the slide member is automatically constrained or locked to prevent linear movement of the slide member. When one end of the slide member is lifted to an angular position, the constraint is automatically disengaged and a linear slide bearing is engaged. When the slide member is in the angular position, the slide member can be easily adjusted via the bearings to match with a pick up point on an underside of a vehicle. Once the adjustment point has been reached, the slide member is returned to the horizontal position to automatically re-engage the constraint. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20130020541 | Vehicle Lift - A vehicle lift comprises a pair of parallel ramps ( | 01-24-2013 |
| 20130020542 | VEHICLE LIFT SYSTEMS WITH LIGHTING - A vehicle lift system includes a support structure having a top surface for supporting a vehicle supported by the vehicle lift system, and at least one lighting module. The lighting module is mounted to the top surface of the support structure. The lighting module is configured to illuminate a region of the vehicle, for example, but not limited to, the underside of the vehicle. The lighting module can be mounted generally flush relative to the top surface of the support structure. In a vehicle wheel alignment lift system, the lighting module can be disposed adjacent a movable support surface of the wheel runway apparatus to provide illumination during wheel alignment procedures. | 01-24-2013 |
| 20150014608 | Height-Adjustable Support Device for Semi-Trailers or the Like - A support device, preferably for commercial vehicles such as semi-trailers, includes an inner support tube and an outer support tube moveable relative to one another along a longitudinal axis in a retraction and extension direction; a spindle rotated via a gear section and is arranged such that the spindle is stationary relative to the outer support tube; and a spindle nut which is mounted on the spindle, wherein the spindle nut is fixed on a mounting region of the inner support tube, and the mounting region is configured as a support edge facing the longitudinal axis. | 01-15-2015 |
| 254047000 | Cable hoist | 1 |
| 20090309079 | Jeep hard-top remover - A device for removing the hard-top from a Jeep vehicle. The device comprises: (1) a tether, sling or the like for attaching to, lifting and supporting the Jeep hard-top, the tether attached to a cable, rope or the like, the cable connected to and held by (2) a horizontal support, the horizontal support received by and attached to (3) a vertical support, and the vertical support attached to (4) a base support. The tether or sling and its attached cable are made to lower and raise the sling, by means of a winch or the like, whereby the hard-top attached thereto may be raised or lowered. The horizontal support may be extended or retracted within a radius in the horizontal plane defined by the horizontal support. The horizontal support is adapted to rotate within the same horizontal plane, thereby causing the Jeep hard-top attached thereto to be swung away from the Jeep, from which the hard-top is removed. The vertical support may be extensible, raised and lowered, with respect to the base support. The base support has a base plate that rests upon the same surface supporting the base support member. The Jeep is positioned so that a tire of the Jeep rests upon the base plate thereby stabilizing the device. A variant of the device includes a larger base plate and a sling having hooks to remove vehicle doors. | 12-17-2009 |
