A modular integrated mounting system includes a plurality of mounting struts secured to a floor or deck surface, at least one cross mounting rail movably attached perpendicular to the mounting struts, a foot lock receiver attached to the at least one cross mounting rail, and a foot lock configured to be attached to equipment and to be retained by the foot lock receiver.

A track system on which a skater dolly can roll, comprising one or more pairs of rails and one or more rail clamps. Each rail clamp supports one or two pairs of rails. Rails held side-by-side are parallel to each other. Rail clamps can also secure two rails in end-to-end configuration. The distance between rails can be about 5/16 of an inch. The track system can include a skater dolly, the load-bearing wheels of which are angled 20-30 degrees away from vertical to provide clearance past the rail clamps. The skater also has stabilizing wheels that are approximately perpendicular to the load-bearing wheels, and which secure the skater to the rails when the skater is in a non-upright e.g. upside-down orientation. The system can include a motor pulley system that moves the skater along the rails.

A track system for image capture devices is utilized to shoot fast action at high frame rates for smooth slow motion playback. The results are visual impressions of detaching time and space of viewers from that of their visible subject. The system includes a track, a carriage, a handle, a first retractor, and a release mechanism. The release mechanism includes a trigger, actuator, and a pin. When the user is ready to capture fast action images and/or videos of the target subject, the user pulls the trigger, which in communication with the actuator which causes the pin to disengage from a pin aperture. In turn, the carriage is released to slide along the track.

A system for moving electrically powered apparatuses is described, comprising at least one fixed supporting track along which the apparatuses are moved. The track is made by a tubular section bar having an opening extending for its whole length and at least one carriage is movably housed inside the track. The system further comprises at least one motor for moving the carriage in the track.

A display apparatus includes a display assembly, and a mounting device on which the display assembly is supported. The mounting device may include a stand having a supporting boss, a rail disposed on a rear surface of the display assembly, and configured to move the display assembly in a straight line direction with respect to the supporting boss, and a rotation guide disposed at an end of the rail such that the display assembly rotates with respect to the supporting boss, wherein the display assembly is rotatable when the supporting boss is positioned on the rotation guide.

A method controlling a vehicle moving along a guideway for magnetic flight is provided. The method includes receiving, at a controller, data generated by one or more sensors. The controller receives data relating to a projected flight path of the vehicle. The controller determines an altitude of the vehicle relative to the guideway for magnetic flight and determines a speed of the vehicle relative to the guideway for magnetic flight. The controller then calculates a deviation of the vehicle from the projected flight path. The controller adjusts the altitude of the vehicle relative to the guideway for magnetic flight by changing certain aspects of a magnetic flight suspension system causing the vehicle to more closely track the projected flight path.

A television stand includes an elongated, vertical support pole having a front surface, a rear surface, a curved top portion, a bottom end and a hollow interior. Within the hollow interior is a motorized drive belt that moves an external carriage that is adapted to fasten to an existing television or television stand. Accordingly, using a local control panel, a remote unit or a portable electronic device, a viewer can easily raise or lower the television to a desired height. Also, when the television is raised to the upper portion of the pole, the curvature tilts the television downwardly, toward the viewer.

The present embodiments relate to a trolley system for a camera dolly. The system comprising at least one trolley comprising a power drive for driving the trolley in both a forward and reverse direction, a cable handling and a storage arrangement; a station for operative connection to the at least one trolley; one cable connecting the station and the at least one trolley; a power device for supplying power to the trolley; and at least one rail adapted to receive the at least one trolley, the at least one rail comprising at least one rail recess, and the cable handling and storage arrangement is adapted to deploy the at least one cable in the at least one rail recess as the trolley moves away from the station and take up the at least one cable from the at least one rail recess as the trolley moves toward the station.

A support structure provides two or more axes of intelligent locomotion for a movable object on the support structure. The support structure can include a track system made up of a plurality of identically configured track modules that are connected end-to-end. Each track module can include an elongated body defining a longitudinal axis and having two ends. Each end can include at least one beveled edge and at least one track surface extending longitudinally along the elongated body. The track surface can include a plurality of protuberances arranged in rows that are parallel to the longitudinal axis of the elongated body, and in columns that are perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the elongated body. The track modules can be connected to a power source and include electrical contacts that provide electricity to self-propelled units that travel along the track system.

An aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a monorail system configured and arranged for displacing at least one maintenance device configured and arranged for machining substantially vertically extending surfaces. Another aspect is directed to a maintenance system consisting of at least one maintenance device which is displaceable on the monorail system.
