A body transport apparatus may include top and bottom portions that have a perimeter seal and an interior seal offset from the perimeter seal to define a non-inflatable frame portion and an inflatable air mattress portion. The bottom portion includes a plurality of air exit holes configured to provide an air cushion under the mattress portion when the mattress portion is inflated. The frame portion includes a plurality of handle openings and a channel so that the inflatable air mattress portion extends through the frame portion for a remote receptacle disposed outside the perimeter seal. A partial body transport apparatus may include the channel extending into the frame portion so that a remote receptacle is disposed within the perimeter seal and an inflatable air mattress portion having a longitudinal extent that is approximately 75% to 125% of a lateral extent.

Conveyor assembly for packagings, comprising a substantially horizontally conveying conveyor (2). Situated near the delivery end of said conveyor is a bearing plate (13), which when the pack moves onto it moves further substantially at the same speed as the conveyor into an accommodation in which the pack has to be placed. When the pack is entirely clear of the conveyor, the bearing plate is moved back so fast that the pack, through its inertia and through its speed of displacement, does not move back and comes to a standstill, so that it is subsequently received in the accommodation.

According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of introducing/discharging a heavy article which enables a coil-shape heavy article to easily and directly be introduced into a transporting receptacle (a container or the like) and easily securing the heavy article without a flaw of the coil-shape heavy article. According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a pallet, a carrying vehicle and an introducing/discharging stage suitable for the introducing/discharging method. The introducing/discharging method is a method of introducing the pallet on which a heavy article is held into a container by using the introducing/discharging stage. The method has the following steps to be performed sequentially. The pallet has a coil securing member for securing a heavy article to be placed. When the number of said pallet is one, the size of the one pallet is substantially the same as the planar size of the container and when the number of said pallet is two or more, the size of the combined pallets is substantially the same as the planar size in the container. The carrying vehicle is able to levitate a support frame thereof by discharging gas in a state where the pallet loaded with the heavy article has been placed on the support frame. When a control stick is operated, the attitude of the support frame can be controlled.

A composite foot is described for supporting and moving pneumatically a machine. The foot comprises a nozzle (12) for ejecting pressurized air, fixed to the machine base (10) to which a substantially disc-shaped element (30) is associated, being connected to the nozzle (12) in a substantially swingable manner, between said disc-shaped element (30) and the machine base (10) there being provided air sealing means (38) in order that air is ejected by said nozzle (12) only toward the plane on which the machine is placed, thus generating in practice a pressurized air cushion which keeps the machine itself upraised with respect to the plane, thus allowing a quick and precise shifting thereof.

Load transporting apparatus enables loads (17) to be transported on and off vehicles. The apparatus requires a loading platform (15) to be located adjacent a load receiving surface (12) of a vehicle (10). The platform and the surface each have channel shaped tracks (16, 13) which are aligned with one another. An inflatable tube (25) on which is carried a plate (27) is located in the base (22) of the channel and skates (18) are arranged to be moved along the plates when the tube is inflated. Thus the skates (18) can move along the . channels (16,13) supporting a load (17) when a transfer to or from the vehicle is required. When in position deflation of the tubes (25) causes the skates (18) to lower and the load (17) rests on the associated surface (12). In the deflated position the skates (18) can be moved along the tracks (13,16) out of engagement with the load. The plates (27) have a central depression to ensure that the skates (18) remain centrally located in the tracks.

The present invention relates to a method for moving a heavy object, e.g. an energy storage or transformation device, into a confined space. The method comprising: providing the heavy object in an initial position, the heavy object having an underside resting on a ground surface and comprising an inducible gas-cushion arrangement which in its inactive state cause the underside of the heavy object to maintain contact with the ground surface; activating the inducible gas-cushion arrangement by forming a gas cushion between the underside of the heavy object and the ground surface, the gas cushion generating a lifting force causing the underside of the heavy object to lose contact with the ground surface, moving the heavy object relative the confined space until the underside of the heavy object at least levels with the supporting surface of the confined space, and moving the heavy object into its final position in the confined space utilizing the lifting force of the gas-cushion.
