In the straightening apparatus according to the invention, the support beam includes a vertical beam and an extension beam movably fastened to it, and the first support element is movably fastened to the vertical beam and the second support element is fastened to the extension beam.

A motorcycle frame rack enables a motorcycle frame to be repaired without removing many components from the motorcycle. A motorcycle is positioned on the motorcycle frame rack, secured in place and then the frame is adjusted using chains coupled to towers. A self-centering laser measuring system is able to be used to analyze and measure damage to the motorcycle frame.

An apparatus for punching an anchor bolt insertion hole is disclosed. The apparatus enables punching work for forming the anchor bolt insertion hole, of which the bottom side is wider than an inlet, on a panel surface for constructing a concrete structure to be performed regardless of the skill of a worker. During operation, the apparatus provides the movement direction of a hammer drill into the vertical direction and the inclination direction so as to enable precise punching work, and doubly arranges springs, which are elastic devices for adjusting the movement range of the hammer drill, so as to uniformly maintain the angle and size for cutting a wall such that a cross-sectional diameter is large at a portion adjacent to the bottom of the anchor bolt insertion hole.

A system configured for deformation compensation in real time during a heat treatment performed on a component. The system comprises a supporting structure; two or more clamping devices arranged with the supporting structure, one or more clamping devices including a clamp, a load cell and a motor; and a processing and control system configured to collect signals from a load cell and to send signals based on the detected loads to a motor to compensate for deformation due to the heat treatment.

A tool for repair and maintenance of a rail extending about the perimeter of a bed, the rail separated from the bed by a predetermined distance. The tool comprises a shaft with first and second sides. The first side has a curved surface, and the shaft has a cross-section normal to the curved surface with a maximum width that is less than the predetermined distance. A flange extends from the second side, the combined shaft and flange having a cross-section normal to the curved surface with a maximum width that is at least the predetermined distance.

E-Z TRAM is a tool used in the collision repair business to help restore a vehicle's A, B, C and D Pillars back to its pre-accident condition. E-Z TRAM does this by making comparisons at any points from the undamaged side to the same points on the damaged side of vehicle, by using a special clamp and one non-stretch steel cable, that can be marked at multiple points with tape and a ink mark to check multiple points. Since one end of the cable is attached to the special E-Z TRAM clamp, there is no need for another technician to help hold that end. Also the clamp and cable can be left in place during live pulling until all points match up to the marks on the cable. E-Z TRAM can also be used in conjunction with a regular tape measure and a traditional auto body tram gauge by holding on end of each of these tools in position.

The invention relates to a straightening apparatus for a vehicle, including a frame (1), a lifting device (2) fastened to the frame, a straightening table (3) which is fastened to the lifting device and which has, on its sides, platforms (5a1, 5a2, 6, 8a1, 8a2, 5, 8) onto which the vehicle may be moved for the straightening work, and anchor beams (4a1, 4a2, 4a3, 4a4; 4) and fasteners (12a1, 12a2, 13a1, 13a2; 11, 12, 13) fastened to the anchor beams for fastening the vehicle to the straightening table for the straightening work, the anchor beams (4a 1, 4a2, 4a3, 4a4; 4) being fixedly fastened to the gaps between the platforms (5a1, 5a2, 8a1, 8a2, 5, 6, 8) on the sides of the straightening table (3). The inventive straightening apparatus for a vehicle includes support devices (10a1, 10a2, 10) which are settable at vehicle wheels that are between the beams (9a1, 9a2 ja 9a3, 9a4) at the front pan of the straightening table, below them, when the straightening table is lifted to the working height and arranged to support the wheels as the straightening table and vehicle are lowered.

There is provided an apparatus for the repair of post-collision or damaged vehicles or those under maintenance, which includes a lifter (1) having an upper platform (2) supported by a lifting mechanism (3) connected to a resting base (4) mounted on the ground. The lifter (1) is activated by an actuator (5) which adjusts the upper platform (2) to the desired height. Wheel resting/gripping supports (6) for the vehicle are removably fixed to the upper platform and allow the vehicle to be lifted and lowered by the lifter. Pushing and/or pulling and/or anchoring equipments (7) for the vehicle are movably mounted on a sliding element (8) which is adapted to be slideably mounted within the structure of the wheel resting/gripping supports thereby allowing the quick mounting and centering of the pushing/pulling/anchoring equipments (7) to the desired points of the vehicle under repair.
