A remote controlled lift assembly includes a pair of supports is each mountable to a respective outrigger of scaffolding. A winch unit is positionable on the supports when the supports are mounted on the scaffolding and the winch unit has a cable extending downwardly therefrom. The cable is lowered or lifted when the winch is actuated. A receiver is coupled to the winch unit and the receiver is in electrical communication with the winch unit. A remote control is provided that is carried by a user and the remote control is in wireless electrical communication with the receiver. In this way the user can remotely lift and lower the cable for lifting and lowering cargo.

A sheave assembly for use in a handling system or tensioning system, the sheave assembly having one or more sheaves arranged about a shaft and cone sub-assembly. The shaft and cone sub-assembly may include one or more pairs of bearing cones configured to interface with a plurality of bearing rollers to facilitate rotation of the one or more sheaves about the shaft and cone sub-assembly. The shaft and cone sub-assembly may be configured to be arranged in a fixed rotational position during handling or tensioning operations. The shaft and cone sub-assembly may further be configured to be rotated or repositioned about a central, longitudinal axis of the sub-assembly. The shaft and cone sub-assembly may be configured to rotate independent of the sheave(s) so as to reposition the one or more pairs of cones with respect to applied loading on the sheave assembly from the handling or tensioning operations.

The present disclosure relates to a machine capable of moving on an inclined plane, including a first split body, a second split body and functional components, where the functional components include a moving mechanism, a flexible connecting device and operating tools, the operating tools are installed on the first split body and/or the second split body, and configured to perform operations, the flexible connecting device connects the first split body to the second split body, and adjusts a distance between the first split body and the second split body, the moving mechanism is installed on the first split body and/or the second split body and configured to drive the first split body and/or the second split body to move on the inclined plane, the first split body contains a suspension mechanism, and the suspension mechanism is configured to connect or disconnect the inclined plane.

A portable gantry crane formed of composite members includes a composite material I-beam. Two or more support members are formed of a composite material and each support member supports the I-beam when the portable gantry crane is in an upright position. Two or more end housings are included, each end housing enclosing a top end of one of the two or more support members and coupled thereto using adhesive. A plurality of latch structures are coupled with the I-beam, each latch structure including a latch, and each end housing having a latch receiver, each latch in combination with a latch receiver allowing one of the latch structures to be releasably fixedly coupled with an end housing. In implementations a plurality of latch structures are coupled with the I-beam, each latch structure having a latch structure enclosure and each latch structure enclosure at least partially enclosing one of the end housings.

A remote controlled lift assembly includes a pair of supports is each mountable to a respective outrigger of scaffolding. A winch unit is positionable on the supports when the supports are mounted on the scaffolding and the winch unit has a cable extending downwardly therefrom. The cable is lowered or lifted when the winch is actuated. A receiver is coupled to the winch unit and the receiver is in electrical communication with the winch unit. A remote control is provided that is carried by a user and the remote control is in wireless electrical communication with the receiver. In this way the user can remotely lift and lower the cable for lifting and lowering cargo.

A pulley block may include an alpha pulley block including an alpha connector, a beta pulley block including a beta connector, wherein the alpha pulley block is coupled to the beta pulley block when the alpha connector is coupled to the beta connector. At least one of the alpha connector and the beta connector may comprise magnets.

A portable pulling device and method therefore, the portable pulling device including a chassis frame, a power source, anchoring elements, a spool, a rope or cable attached thereon, and a centrifugal clutch with a chain or belt drive system allowing the ability to pull out the rope when the power source is at idle. The device further contains frame propulsion components such as wheels, skis, or tracks to facilitate movement of the pulling device into and through a confined area such as a forest or a barren area.

A machine for extracting a ductile pipe. The machine has a vise which can grip the pipe, and a wire clamp. Each of the wire clamp and vise are supported on a carriage which is movable relative to a frame. This enables the vise to grip and pull the ductile pipe. Additionally, a wire strand may be disposed through the pipe from a far end to the end at which the machine is placed. The wire clamp allows the machine to pre-stress the strand to improve the extraction of the ductile pipe.

A wire pulling wincher apparatus attachable to a tractor, loader or other mobile transport device capable of receiving attachments has a pass through frame attachable to the mobile device, a vertical support member on the frame for supporting a first winch with cable for attaching and pulling a fence wire to be tensioned, a second winch for raising and lowering a slide block assembly through which the first winch cable is guided to allow pulling the first winch cable at different vertical heights, and has winch tension limiting apparatus.

A wire pulling windier apparatus attachable to a tractor, loader or other mobile transport device capable of receiving attachments has a pass through frame attachable to the mobile device, a vertical support member on the frame for supporting a first winch with cable for attaching and pulling a fence wire to be tensioned, a second winch for raising and lowering a slide block assembly through which the first winch cable is guided to allow pulling the first winch cable at different vertical heights, and has winch tension limiting apparatus.
