A hand truck for moving an irregularly shaped object includes a rack alternately positionable between first and second use positions. In the first use position two support arms extend forwardly from the frame and in the second use position a substantially planar platform extends forwardly from the frame. The rack is adjustably positionable along the length of the frame. In embodiments, the support arms are positionable to vary the width therebetween. In other embodiments, a pivoting mechanism allows the rack to be readily positioned between the first and second use positions.

The invention provides a stand using two legs which are selectively elongated. Ideally, each leg has two spaced apart wheels allowing the stand to be readily moved. The legs are connected by a scissor member which allows the assembly to be collapsed for storage and easy movement. A receiver for a paper roll is attachable to the top of both legs. A roller, from which paper from the paper roll extends. The legs are manually extended either by hand or in concert using a winch assembly connected to both legs.

Lifting device for pallet goods for loading and unloading of a transport pallet such as a standard pallet, for example a euro pallet. The lifting device comprises a support frame, a tine assembly liftable mounted to the support frame of at least two, preferably four, tines having a parallel direction of extension for lifting and receiving the transport goods from the transport pallet and/or for depositing the transport goods onto the transport pallet. A tine spacing of two tines is adapted to a gap spacing of two longitudinal gaps and at least two tines are form-fitted with regard to the at least two longitudinal gaps such that they can access the longitudinal gaps in the longitudinal direction.

A movable lifting device has a lifting and fixing device (10) and a moving device (20). One end of the lifting and fixing device is connected to the moving device, and the other end thereof is connected to a cargo to be shifted (30). The free rotation of the lifting and fixing device converts rotary motion into linear motion for lifting the cargo to-be-shifted. The movable lifting device has a simple and flexible structure, is easy to operate, and combines the functions of shifting and lifting. It can be operated anytime and anywhere, and is suitable for a wide range of applications. The movable lifting device reduces labor intensity, saves manpower and material resources, is cheaper to build, and easy to operate.
