20100166532 | Apparatus for manipulating and recovering wheels - An apparatus is disclosed here for manipulating and recovery of wheels. The apparatus may include a housing and a lift operatively attached to the housing for manipulating and recovering the wheels. The apparatus may be adapted to inflate tires, and lift vehicles to facilitate changing of tires. | 07-01-2010 |
20100196131 | RAM OPERATED VEHICLE LIFT - Powered lift for lifting and carrying a motor cycle or other recreational vehicle behind a motor home. The lift has a base structure to be connected to the chassis of the motor home and a platform on which the motor cycle or other vehicle can be placed. Connection is through to swivel arms. In the base structure a mechanism is provided for rotatably driving the swivel arms between a lower position wherein a vehicle can be loaded/unloaded from the platform to an upper conveying position. Rotation of the swivel arms can for example be effected through a ram which displaces a chain engaging sprockets connected to the swivel arms. | 08-05-2010 |
20100290876 | Cargo Lift For All Terrain Vehicle - A cargo lift operable by a single operator that may be used to lift and transport a variety of cargo, and which may be mounted to many types of all terrain-vehicles. The lift may be folded when not in use. Other embodiments are disclosed. | 11-18-2010 |
20110076121 | APPARATUS FOR MOVING A WHEELCHAIR INTO AND OUT OF A VEHICLE - Apparatus for moving a wheelchair into and out of a vehicle, said apparatus including: —an anchorage configured to be secured to the floor of a vehicle and to provide a pivotal mounting for said apparatus; —the first portion and a second portion; —the first portion being configured to move in a substantially horizontal plane; —the first portion including a main support member which is pivoted at one end to the anchorage and which carries the second portion at the other end; —the second portion being configured to move in a substantially vertical plane; —the second portion carrying means for securing a wheelchair thereto; —first moving means for moving the first portion relative to the anchorage; —second moving means for moving the second portion; —wherein the apparatus is dimensioned and configured such that a wheelchair secured’ to the second portion is movable between a first, fully stored position in a luggage compartment of a vehicle and a second position in which a wheelchair is at a specified position relative to the vehicle; —and wherein said means for securing a wheelchair are such that in the fully stored position, the or each wheelchair axle is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. | 03-31-2011 |
20110142583 | CARGO LOADER FOR AN AIRCRAFT WITH ADJUSTING MECHANISM - This invention concerns an aircraft cargo loader for lifting cargo and freight onto and off an aircraft or plane by the loader comprises a longitudinal deck platform; a supporting assembly extending under the platform for supporting and moving the deck platform between a raised position and a lowered position; and an adjusting mechanism installed in connection with a front transverse shaft of the supporting assembly for transversally tilting the platform between a first tilt angular position where one of the longitudinal side of the platform is tilted with respect to the other longitudinal side; a neutral angular position; and a second tilt position where the other longitudinal side of the platform is tilted with respect to said one longitudinal side. The loader also comprises an actuator to actuate the rotational movement of the front transverse shaft. | 06-16-2011 |
20110194921 | CENTER-PIVOT STEERING ARTICULATED VEHICLE WITH LOAD LIFTING TRAILER - The center-pivot vehicle has forward and rearward sections with traversing means for traversing terrain. A rotary actuator connects the forward and rearward sections. Rotation of the rotary actuator articulates the forward and rearward sections relative to each other for steering the vehicle. One of the sections includes a bed operably attached to a bed frame that is operably attached to a trailer frame for actuated movement between trailing and loading positions. The bed is pivotally attached to the bed frame for moving between tilted and non-tilted positions. | 08-11-2011 |
20130101375 | TRUCK LOADING DEVICE - An apparatus for loading the bed of a pickup truck comprises a brace for supporting a load from the ground, the brace preventing the load from applying weight to the tail end of the bed with damaging consequences while being drawn into position by a winch and cable system. A pallet is used to stage the load on the ground and to provide a structure with a low angle of attack to the brace, the low angle of attack facilitating the transition of the load to the bed by reducing the tipping moment over the brace. | 04-25-2013 |
