摘要:
A method and apparatus for rapid loading stacks of items aboard vessels which can include rotating palletized items to depalletize the items, and then placing the items on a lifting robot, lifting the robot and items into the hold of a vessel, removing the items from the robot using a load push lift truck, and then using the load push lift truck to stow the items in a stowage location. The empty robot can be removed from the hold of the vessel and put in a position to receive a another depalletized stack of cartons. In one option the robot has a plurality of fork channels for receiving the blades of a load push lift truck along with receiving the blades or a rotating lift truck.
摘要:
A wide, flat-bottom, buoyant, amphibious hull with a powered articulating member mounted on the deck. The hull is propelled by at least one engine-driven propeller rotating above the hull. The hull has a shallow draft and distributes its weight over a large area. These features cooperatively provide a vehicle capable of installing or servicing power transmission poles, towers, or other structures located in environmentally sensitive wetlands, swamps, marshes, shallow water, or similar terrain.

A method of using a wide, flat-bottom, buoyant, amphibious hull with a powered articulating member mounted on the deck. The hull is propelled by at least one engine-driven propeller rotating above the hull. The hull has a shallow draft and distributes its weight over a large area. These features cooperatively provide a vehicle capable of performing overhead work, such as installing or servicing power transmission poles, towers, or other structures located in environmentally sensitive wetlands, swamps, marshes, shallow water, or terrain which is not efficiently accessible by other means.

Hoisting arrangement having a boom or a crane with two separately driven hoist wires each with its individual cargo hook. The cargo hooks along with the hoist wires are used for various lifting operations. The hoist wires and a topping wire are operated by their respective winches. The hoist wires are connected via their winches to a common power supply system via a selection valve whereby a constant tension is exerted on the hoist wire. The winches are adapted to pay out hoist wire if the pull in the hoist wire exceeds this constant tension and to draw in hoist wire if the pull falls below the constant tension.
摘要:
A boom lifting system for a crane of the type having an upright mast and a boom hinged to the mast. The system has a brace extending between the mast and the boom. The brace is pivotally connected to both the mast and the boom and has a hinge dividing it into a short section, connected to the boom, and a long section, connected to the mast. A hydraulic cylinder is pivotally connected to both the boom and the short brace section. Actuation of the cylinder straightens or bends the brace to respectively lift or lower the boom relative to the mast.
