Systems and methods for pharmaceutical package delivery

A pharmaceutical package for carrying a pharmaceutical container includes a first housing and a second housing in the first housing. The second housing defines a compartment sized and shaped to receive and carry the pharmaceutical container. A gas chamber is disposed between the first and second housings. The gas chamber is configured to hold a gas in an inflated state of the gas chamber. A passage extends from the first housing to the second housing and defines a passageway extending there-between to allow the pharmaceutical container to be positioned in the compartment of the second housing by moving the pharmaceutical container through the passageway. One or more supports are connected to and extending between the first housing and the second housing. The one or more supports secure and hold the second housing in the first housing.

Aircraft loader
11591114 · 2023-02-28 ·

An aircraft loader comprises a chassis, a cab, a loading floor and a load lifting apparatus. The load lifting apparatus includes a frame, a first horizontal platform and a second horizontal platform. The frame includes a pair of vertical columns. Each column has a front slider and a rear slider configured to be displaced vertically along the columns. The first platform is displaceable through movement of the rear sliders between a loading floor height and an aircraft loading height. The second platform is displaceable through movement of the front sliders and the first platform between an intermediate height and the aircraft loading height. When the first platform is raised from the loading floor height and reaches the intermediate height, the first and second platforms engage to so as to travel in unison, thus defining a loading deck which is displaceable between the intermediate height and the aircraft loading height.
