A vehicle moving apparatus may include a housing extending in a first direction; an elevator coupled to the housing to be movable in the first direction and another direction opposite thereto, extending in a third direction and being inserted to be drawable into an underside space of a vehicle, and configured to lift or lower a wheel of the vehicle; and a wheel assembly coupled to the elevator and configured to move the housing and the elevator in a direction toward the vehicle or in a direction opposite the vehicle, wherein the wheel assembly includes a wheel rotatably provided with a vertical direction as an axis, and configured to movably support the elevator; and an actuator coupled to the wheel and configured to provide power for rotating the wheel, wherein the wheel is rotatable such that a diameter of the wheel is aligned between the first and third directions.

A steerable carriage for moving a wheeled object comprising at least one engagement device (3) configured to engage with and elevate a wheel (5) of the wheeled object off the ground such that the wheeled object can be moved upon displacement of the carriage by transmitting a propulsion force from the carriage to the wheeled object via the at least one engagement device, wherein the at least one engagement device comprises: a support device (12), an actuating device (13) movable with respect to the support device such as to cause the wheel to roll forward onto the support device and be held by the support device and the actuating device, wherein the support device comprises: a stopping member (18) movable between a folded position and a stopping position in which it is configured to stop forward motion of the wheel, and an activation member (23) configured to cause the stopping member to move from the folded position to the stopping position when the wheel is rolled onto the support device.

Maneuverable ergonomic trailer stands are disclosed. An example portable trailer stand includes a frame having an upper ledge; an extendible leg coupled to the frame, the upper ledge being vertically movable to selectively engage and disengage an underside of a trailer parked on a driveway based on movement of the extendible leg relative to the frame; a wheel connected to the frame, the wheel to remain at a substantially fixed distance from the upper ledge as the upper ledge is vertically moved

A carriage structure suitable for transporting a vehicle body includes a vehicle frame and a clamping mechanism. The vehicle frame is provided with a groove portion extending in a vehicle front-rear direction. The groove portion carries a side beam extending in the vehicle front-rear direction in the vehicle body. The clamping mechanism is arranged in an extending direction of the groove portion and clamps the side beam from a vehicle width direction.

A service system for servicing a vehicle includes a service station and a parts locker array disposed in or adjacent the service station and including: a plurality of parts lockers. Each parts locker includes a locker access door configured to alternatively open and close to permit and impede, respectively, access to the parts locker's interior, and a locker locking mechanism configured to alternatively lock and unlock to impede and permit, respectively, opening of the parts locker access door.

A fork-arm lift tractor includes a vehicle body, a supporting plate disposed above the vehicle body, a lifting device for driving the supporting plate to be lifted, a front and rear fork-arm assemblies, a front and rear fork-arm drive assemblies. The front fork-arm assembly includes two front fork-arms rotatably disposed at the supporting plate. The rear fork-arm assembly includes two rear fork-arms rotatably disposed at the supporting plate, and the front and rear fork-arms may be deployed or retracted from both sides of the supporting plate. The front fork-arm driving assembly includes a front transmission part, and a front power device disposed at the supporting plate and may drive the front transmission part to move horizontally linearly so as to rotate the two front fork-arms. The rear fork-arm driving assembly has almost the same structure of the front fork-arm driving assembly and is used to rotate the two rear fork-arms.
