|---|
| 414470000 | Having axis of pivot parallel to longitudinal axis of vehicle for side loading or unloading | 8 |
| 20100040445 | ROOF STOWAGE SYSTEM - A roof stowage system includes a support having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The second end is pivotably coupled, at least indirectly, to the roof. A lift is coupled to the support and operable to selectively cause the support to pivot between a first position and a second position. The support is generally parallel with and adjacent to the roof when in the first position. The first end of the support is generally adjacent to a floor when in the second position. | 02-18-2010 |
| 20100054899 | Storage Container Transport Device - A device for the loading, transport and unloading of a storage container. A vehicle is provided having a cab and loading assembly supported by a flat bed portion of the vehicle. The loading assembly is characterized as having a trolley, selectively movable between a forward position proximate the cab and an aft position proximate the back of the flat bed portion. The trolley is moved by a drive assembly between the fore and aft positions and supports hydraulically actuated swing arms appended to the trolley for selectively engaging the storage container and for lifting and lowering the storage container onto and off of the flat bed portion and for moving the storage container toward the forward position for transport by the vehicle. The hydraulically actuated swing arms are adjustable to accommodate storage containers with varying widths. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20110002762 | Site Dumping Moving Floor Hopper Method and Apparatus - A site dumper elevation, rotation, and moving floor hopper implement. The implement includes a material bed for conveying material from one site location to another. The material bed has a bed side wall and a first bed gate. The bed side wall defines an upper bed wall edge and a lower bed wall edge. The material bed further has an open top, a bed tilt hinge arranged near said first bed gate and a moving floor for transferring the material towards or away from the first bed gate. The moving floor defines the bottom wall of the material bed. A first lift arm is configured to tilt the material bed and the moving floor about the bed tilt hinge at an angular distance. An undercarriage is configured to support the material bed, the moving floor, and the lift arm. The undercarriage further is configured to rotate a rotational distance about a vertically aligned axis. | 01-06-2011 |
| 20120070258 | Side dump body - A side dump body or trailer comprising a wheeled frame having one or more side dump bodies pivotally mounted thereon which may be individually moved from a transport position to a side dumping position at either side of the truck or trailer. Once the side dump body is in its dumping position, the side dump body may be moved somewhat upwardly and inwardly away from the pile of material which has been dumped at one side of the truck or trailer. | 03-22-2012 |
| 20140205404 | HALF-TILT BED UNLOADING SYSTEM - One variation may include a product including: a vehicle including a cargo bed comprising a tilting portion and a non-tilting portion. | 07-24-2014 |
| 20140212253 | GRAVITY-FED CURB SIDE DISPENSER - A number of variations of the invention may include a product comprising a vehicle including a cargo area, the vehicle comprising at least one of a titled unloading stage in the cargo area or at least one inclined ramp surface in the cargo area. | 07-31-2014 |
| 20150050108 | Loading and Transport Apparatus for Agricultural Cutting Devices - A loading and transport apparatus for an agricultural header or implement that comprises a primary tool and a secondary tool, comprising a guide frame. On the guide frame is arranged a first support device having a first rest surface for movably holding the primary tool. On the guide frame is further arranged a second support device having a second rest surface for movably holding the secondary tool. A coupling element is arranged to the first support device, wherein the coupling element connects the first support device to the second support device. To the guide frame is arranged a support element, which contacts the second support device, wherein the coupling element and the support element are designed and arranged such that a movement of the first support device in a first direction along the guide frame effects lifting of the second rest surface. | 02-19-2015 |
| 20150056048 | ADJUSTABLE AND STOWABLE TRAIN CARGO LIFT SYSTEM AND METHOD - An adjustable and stowable apparatus for lifting cargo adjacent to a train car catwalk. The lift apparatus is operable to be used in tight spaces and configurable for removal and storage. The lift apparatus may include an actuator that drives a carriage for lifting luggage along a track. The carriage may include a lift basket having a rotatable handle that can be fixed in at least two positions—parallel with and perpendicular to—the track. The rotatable handle is operable to support lifting the cargo in its perpendicular configuration, and carrying and stowage in its parallel configuration. | 02-26-2015 |
