A collapsible access tower has a chassis 10 supporting a pair of road wheels 11 and outriggers 16,17 to impart stability when in use, and a pair of extensible multi-section columns 26,50 carrying a platform 35. A section 27 of one column 26 is rigidly connected to the chassis and another section 33 of that column to the platform 35. The other column is configured as an extendible ladder 50 one section 51 of which is hinged to the chassis 10 and another section 52 of which is hinged to the platform 35. When the platform is in its lowermost setting, the hinged connections of the two sections 51,52 of the ladder 50 are co-axial so that the ladder may be pivoted to a transit setting. A winch arrangement 39 is associated with column 26 to allow raising and lowering of the platform 35.
摘要:
An apparatus which is positionable between a structure to be lifted and an underlying support surface for lifting the structure utilizes a bottom plate and a cap between which a spacer member, such as a piece of tubing, is positionable and a threaded rod which is threadably received by an internally-threaded opening in the cap. By rotating the threaded rod within the cap, the threaded rod moves lengthwise relative to the cap. Therefore, by positioning the apparatus between a structure to be lifted and an underlying support surface and then rotating the threaded rod within the cap, the bottom plate and the threaded rod act between the structure to be lifted and the underlying support surface to lift the structure.

A vehicle for lifting a load with respect to a support surface includes a load carrying member configured to carry the load, a frame, and a support assembly coupling the load carrying member and the frame. The support assembly is configured to move the load carrying member between stowed and deployed positions with respect to the flame. The vehicle further includes a plurality of motion devices that support the frame relative to the support surface, and the motion devices are configured to move the frame along the support surface. In addition, the vehicle includes a control system associated with the motion devices and configured to determine contact forces between the motion devices and the support surface. The control system is further configured to determine stability of the vehicle based on the contact forces.

Apparatus for elevating, laterally and rotationally positioning an aerial work platform relative to a support structure such as a mobile vehicle. In one embodiment a platform supporting carriage is mounted for sliding movement along a support beam affixed to a boom and the platform is mounted on the carriage permitting rotation of the platform about a substantially vertical axis. In a second embodiment a four bar linkage is used for longitudinally moving a rotatable platform. One or more powered means may be provided for elevating, leveling and longitudinally and rotationally positioning the work platform.
摘要:
A deployable rectangular truss with folding or removable chordal members and diagonals and orthogonal hinge joints for continuous and synchronous retraction and extension. The truss is rectangular in cross section, with four common chords on the corners. Two opposing sides of the truss have diagonals that meet at side joints. One or more end frames may be used to close off or mount one of more ends of the deployable truss. A plurality of telescoping transverse struts may extend between major joints on one side of the truss.

A mobile mount for attachment of a fall arrest system. The mobile mount includes a mobile base, a support, at least one base, at least one arm and at least one anchor. The mobile base has a first side and a second side. The support extends upward from proximate the first side of the mobile base. The support also has a first end coupled to the mobile base and a second end. The at least one brace is coupled between the support and the mobile base to maintain the support in an upward position in relation to the mobile base. The at least one brace is slideably coupled to the mobile base. The at least one arm assembly is coupled to the second end of the support and extends from the support so as to be cantilevered over the mobile base. The at least one anchor is configured to be attached to the fall arrest system. Moreover, the at least one anchor is coupled to the at least one arm assembly.
