414458000 | OPPOSED SHELF-TYPE ELEVATOR AND TRANSPORTER | 10 |
20080253872 | Apparatus Supporting a Container on a Vehicle and Placing the Container Directly on a Ground Surface - A container held on a vehicle includes a central container portion with a central lower surface and a lateral lower surface at each side of the central container portion. The vehicle includes a āUā-shaped stationary frame, to which wheels are mounted, and a āUā-shaped moving frame, having longitudinal support members extending under the lateral lower surfaces to hold the container. The moving frame is lowered to set the container on a ground surface and raised to move the container into a position to be carried on the vehicle. | 10-16-2008 |
20100111657 | DEVICE FOR SUPPORTING AND MOVING SHELVES FOR CAGES FOR LABORATORY ANIMALS - A device for lifting and moving shelves, in particular shelves for cages for laboratory animals, said device comprising: means for lifting at least one shelf, and for keeping it lifted from the ground; moving means to allow displacement of the device in the presence of a shelf lifted from the ground, along at least one direction. Structure comprising several devices as described above, engaged with a driving system to allow translation along a common direction. | 05-06-2010 |
20100196128 | SYSTEM FOR MOBILIZATION OF STOCKED GONDOLAS - A support assembly provides for a method of mobilization that does not require removal of shelving and restocking of items on gondolas and warehouse pallet racking, even if the gondola or pallet racking is too wide for prior art mobilization methods. The support assembly comprises a pair of tubular members capable of engaging fork-like extensions of a hand truck or the like. The hand truck may have caster wheels for mobilization and may have a lifting mechanism for raising and lowering the support assembly by the fork-like extensions, when tongues extending from the tubular members are aligned and matingly engaged at a middle support and outer supports of the gondola. By using a plurality of such lift assemblies engaged along the length of the gondola or gondola run, a row of gondolas may be lifted and mobilized without removing shelving and restocking items on the shelves, even if the gondola is wide and the items stocked on the shelves of the gondola add substantial weight to the gondola. A push pull rod may be engaged at a engaging loop attached on a lower portion of each of the lift assemblies or a plurality of push pull rods may be engaged at a plurality of the engaging loops, transferring user force on the push pull rods to the lift assemblies as low on the lift assemblies as possible. | 08-05-2010 |
20100226740 | Shipping container handling - An apparatus for use with a shipping container includes a substantially rigid chassis and a connecting mechanism adapted to selectively connect a bottom corner of the container to the chassis. The apparatus further includes a wheel adapted to support the chassis on a surface and an elevating mechanism adapted to provide selective adjustment in elevation of the wheel relative to the chassis. | 09-09-2010 |
20100303593 | Adjustable lift dolly which is used in connection with stand-mounted equipment,power tools and similer items - An adjustable lift dolly assembly system is provided for the lifting and transporting, for the purpose of relocation within a given work shop, tool stands and the like, without the associated cumbersome, complicated and costly designs current available. This dolly system consists of two simple, but effective sub-assemblies, one each attached to the side legs of a work shop tool stand and then actuated by stepping on a lifting pedal on each sub-assembly, rising and securely locking the tool stand to a position suitable for relocation within a given work space. Once relocated or moved, a simple step on the trailing edge of the lifting pedals releases the stand to be lowered, by gravity, back to a suitable working position. | 12-02-2010 |
20100322750 | DOLLY FOR TRACK WELDER-CUTTER - A transporting apparatus for track-mounted machines, also capable of aiding lifting, includes a pair of wheel assemblies. Each wheel assembly consisting of (i) a pair of wheels rotatably attached adjacent ends of an axle; (ii) a pair of parallel spaced-apart axle braces each rotatably engaged to the axle at a distal end of the axle braces; and (iii) a receiver member having a predetermined height and width. This receiver member has at least one bottom member and two spaced-apart substantially parallel side walls fixed to a proximal end of the axle braces. | 12-23-2010 |
20150139764 | EMPTY VEHICLE LIFTER FOR VEHICLE ASSEMBLY LINE - Disclosed is an empty vehicle lifter for a vehicle assembly line. The empty vehicle lifter for a vehicle assembly line may lift a vehicle in an empty vehicle condition in a vehicle assembly line, and may include: i) four post frames which are substantially vertically installed on a floor of a working place while corresponding to wheels of the vehicle, ii) a ceiling frame which is connected to upper end portions of the post frames, iii) a tire ground contact unit which supports a wheel tire of the vehicle, and is installed on each of the post frames so as to be movable upward and downward, and iv) a lift unit which is installed on the ceiling frame so as to move the tire ground contact unit upward and downward. | 05-21-2015 |

20110268543 | CONTAINER TRAILER - A trailer includes a coupling to attach the trailer to a tractor, and a frame attached to the coupling. The frame is positionable as a single unit about a container such that the frame can be attached to the container in four regions of the container to lift the container. The trailer has road wheels for long-haul transportation over road systems. The trailer frame can be positioned about the container by laterally expanding and retracting, pivoting about a horizontal axis, and pivoting about a vertical axis. | 11-03-2011 |
20140140795 | APPARATUS FOR TRANSPORTING COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL APPLIANCE UNITS - Disclosed are various embodiments of an apparatus for raising, suspending, transporting, and lowering appliance units for installation and removal. Two support frame assemblies, each having telescopic legs attached to wheels and upper support brackets from which the appliance unit is suspended, are connected by a removable frame connector. The apparatus may then be rolled across a rooftop to move and place the appliance unit. The frame connector may be replaced with a retention connector and supplemented with a lower retention connector for efficient storage and transport of the apparatus. | 05-22-2014 |
20150110589 | TRANSPORTATION DEVICE AND TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM USING SAME - Provided are a transportation device for transporting heavy plate-shaped cargoes such as thick plate products, and a transportation system using the transportation device. The transportation device may include: a device body unit; a device moving unit provided on the device body unit to move the transportation device; and a cargo loading unit provided on the device body unit for self-loading cargo. The transportation device is capable of rapidly loading and transporting plate-shaped heavy objects such as thick plate products of an iron mill without using additional lifting/unloading apparatuses and heavy pallets (cassettes) for markedly decreasing the total transportation (distribution) time necessary for lifting, transportation, and unloading of cargo, providing efficient transportation environments, improving productivity, and decreasing costs. | 04-23-2015 |
