TELESCOPING SWING GATE
A design for a universal telescoping swing gate can be sized to obscure a wide range of openings while accommodating a multitude of installation options to make the gate versatile under many conditions. The swing gate can have a frame with a pivot member rotatable about a mounting seat between an open configuration and a closed configuration. The frame can have first and second telescoping members adjustable along an extension axis between a collapsed state and a fully extended state for changing the frame length so the gate can be quickly furnished to different sized openings. The gate can be spring loaded to bias the frame to a nominally closed position to reduce the chance for human error among workers. The gate can also be sized to have the structural rigidity to comply with OSHA requirements for handrails and guardrails around a walking-working surface.
Barrier with panels sliding parallel
A barrier employed to keep children and/or pets in or out of certain areas in the house. The barrier includes four panels. Two main panels slide parallel to each other to lengthen or shorten the barrier as a whole. Two side panels stabilize the main panels and extend to the front and rear faces of the main panels to provide a self-supporting in-house barrier. Each of the panels includes a wooden frame. The wood lends less weight, less sharp edges, and more pleasing aesthetics than, for example, a metal gate. Legs are connected to the side panels to further stabilize the side panels and main panels.
RETAINING BRACKETS FOR INTERIOR CONVENIENCE NETS AND OBJECTS
A product for retaining objects that may include a base that may have a central body. A leg may extend from the central body. An anchor arm may extend from the leg. An offset portion may extend from the anchor arm. The leg, the anchor arm and the offset portion may define three sides of a receptacle. The receptacle may have a fourth side that may be open and that may face toward the central body. An anchor loop may extend from the central body. The anchor loop may have an anchor leg extending from the base, and may have a loop segment on the anchor leg.
VEHICLE PARKING WITH AUTOMATED GUIDED VEHICLES, VERTICALLY RECIPROCATING CONVEYORS AND SAFETY BARRIERS
A safety barrier assembly is provided for a parking garage is positioned in proximity to an opening for a VRC and includes a horizontal AGV safety beam and upper and lower pedestrian barriers having horizontal railings and vertical legs. The vertical legs are telescoped into openings at opposite ends of the AGV safety beam. The vertical legs of the upper pedestrian barrier are longer than those of the lower pedestrian barrier. The AGV safety beam can be moved vertically between a lower position where the AGV safety beam is substantially adjacent a floor of the parking garage and an upper position where the AGV safety beam is elevated from the floor. The horizontal railings of the pedestrian barriers are parallel to and spaced above the AGV safety beam in the lower position. However, the horizontal railings abut the AGV safety beam in the upper position.
TELESCOPIC BABY SAFETY DOOR BARRIER AND AUXILIARY MOUNTING DEVICE
A telescopic baby safety door barrier and an auxiliary mounting device are provided. The telescopic baby safety door barrier includes a door barrier main body, wherein the door barrier main body is provided with a mounting portion; a connecting hole is formed in the mounting portion; and the mounting portion is provided with a double faced adhesive tape. When the telescopic baby safety door barrier is mounted necessarily, only the mounting portion is adhered to a wall by the double faced adhesive tape, holes are then punched through the connecting hole, and screws are then mounted, thereby being convenient in mounting. The auxiliary mounting device includes a base provided with a sliding groove and a mounting jig slidably disposed in the sliding groove, and a first adjustment assembly for fixing the mounting jig is disposed between the mounting jig and the base.
"T" Top Step Store Gate
The non-rigid gate device as described may be useful in many application for the general public; gateways in parks, special events, entries to open type office or business building, also large flee-markets often have rigid gates, problems with latches, Other possibilities exist; such as onboard a ship or pleasure boats whereas rigid purpose gates are sometimes left open, this gate is freely placed in a tapered receiver bracket or placed open with the free end resting on a solid surface, rigid gates slam violently in stormy conditions, The non-rigid gate device may be built of metal with a rubber foot to rest on hard surfaces. This gate may be automatically latched when it is placed in a receiver bracket with the auto locking device of this patent application. This invention could be used at airports, parks and welcome centers; or as a garden gate, whereby obstacles often block rigid gates from opening; the inventor foresees many possibilities beyond the stairway use for this non-rigid gate.
FALL PROTECTION TOOL FOR USE IN BLOCKING AN OPENING
A fall protection tool for use in blocking an opening in a doorframe. The tool includes a frame assembly including a pair of lateral posts spaced from each other and extending substantially parallel with each other, and at least one transverse post extending between the pair of lateral posts. The tool also includes a hook member coupled to each lateral post, wherein the hook member is configured to couple to a portion of the doorframe such that the frame assembly is hangable from the doorframe.
SAFETY GATE FOR PETS AND SMALL CHILDREN
A safety gate for preventing pets and small children from passing through an opening, the safety gate comprising: a collapsible frame for selective disposition in the opening, the collapsible frame comprising: a resizable base having a first end and a second end, the resizable base being configured so that the distance between the first end and the second end is adjustable; and first and second arms adjustably secured to the first and second ends of the resizable base, respectively, so as to be re-configurable between (i) a collapsed configuration wherein the first and second arms extend substantially parallel to one another and substantially parallel to the resizable base, and (ii) an expanded configuration wherein the first and second arms extend upright from the resizable base so that the collapsible frame comprises a substantially U-shaped configuration defining a space between the resizable base and the first and second arms; and a flexible barrier for adjustable mounting to the collapsible frame so as to prevent a pet or small child from passing through the space between the resizable base and the first and second arms.
ARTICULATING EXPANDABLE BARRIER
Provided is an adjustable barrier having a central hinge having a cylindrical post and an axis of rotation; a first expandable section coupled to the cylindrical post of the central hinge by at least a first connector; and a second expandable section coupled to the cylindrical post of the central hinge by at least a second connector. At least one of the first and second expandable sections is configured to articulate around the axis of rotation of the central hinge forming an articulation angle between the first and second expandable sections.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVING WINDOW SAFETY
A system for improved window fall prevention provides removable attachment of a window screen frame to a window frame. Systems according to the disclosure provide removable attachment of a window screen frame to an anchor positioned in the window frame by means of a plurality of cables. The cables attach to the screen frame or rest against an exterior portion of the screen frame at an exterior end, are threaded through the screen frame, and include on an interior end, opposite the exterior end, a releasable attachment to the window frame anchor. The releasable attachment may be between a loop of cable formed at the interior end and the window frame anchor, where the window frame anchor may be a T-screw.
