A towing apparatus is provided. The towing apparatus includes a clamp. The clamp includes a first arm and a second arm. Each of the first and second arms includes a handle portion and a gripping portion. The first and second arms are pivotally secured together in between the handle portions 12a and the gripping portions. A spring biases the gripping portions together. A first lock plate is pivotally secured to a distal end of the gripping portion of the first arm and a second lock plate is pivotally secured to a distal end of the gripping portion of the second arm. The towing apparatus further includes a rope attached to the clamp.

The invention relates in particular to a nut 1 for a clamping mechanism 10, a clamping mechanism 10 comprising a tie bolt 11 and two nuts 1, a vulcanizing press 20 comprising clamping mechanisms 10 and a support device 23.

A masonry transport assembly for carrying a paver, tile, or quarried stone is disclosed. The masonry transport assembly generally includes a hinged clamping member including a first arm having a first length, a second arm having a second length, a hinge pivotally connecting the first arm and the second arm, a terminal gripping angled end extending from each of the first and second arms and on ends thereof opposite the hinge, a release mechanism secured to at least one of the first arm or the second arm, and, a mounting eyelet connected to at least one of the first arm or the second arm operatively arranged to receive and connect the support member.

A material handling device for use in manipulating a tubular substrate includes a C-clamp, which in turn comprises a movable jaw that is pivotally coupled to a fixed jaw. A handle is coupled to and extends from an outer surface of the fixed jaw. An actuator is coupled to the fixed jaw. The actuator is operationally coupled to the movable jaw so that the actuator is positioned firstly to pivot the movable jaw relative to the fixed jaw to position the C-clamp in an open configuration, and, secondly, to pivot the movable jaw relative to the fixed jaw to position the C-clamp in a closed configuration. In the open configuration, the C-clamp is configured to insert a tubular substrate. In the closed configuration, the C-clamp couples to the tubular substrate, positioning a user to grasp the handle to manipulate the tubular substrate.

A sheet carrier stand apparatus for carrying and supporting sheet material includes a handle including a handle frame and a grip portion. An extension body is coupled to the handle and has an extension proximal end coupled to the handle frame, an extension distal end, an extension inner side, and an extension outer side. A kickstand is coupled to the extension body. The kickstand has a kickstand proximal end pivotably coupled to the extension outer side and a kickstand distal end lying adjacent the extension distal end with the kickstand in a folded position. The kickstand pivots away from the extension body to an extended position. A cradle has a back lip coupled to the extension inner side adjacent the extension distal end, a cradle bottom perpendicularly extending from the back lip, and a front lip perpendicularly extending from the cradle bottom.

A tank cover lifting tool is configured to remove or attach tank covers. The tank cover lifting tool includes a handle center support, a first handle connected to one end of the handle center support, and a second handle connected to another end of the handle center support. In addition, the tank cover lifting tool includes a first lifting block that is locked on the handle center support and that is configured to engage a first tank cover handle of a tank cover. Further, the tank cover lifting tool includes a second lifting block that is locked on the handle center support and that is configured to engage a second tank cover handle of the tank cover.
