A deployable clasping system is configured to be deployed from a component and securely clasp and release an object. The deployable clasping system includes a cable that is deployable from the transit vehicle. A clasp assembly is coupled to the cable. The clasp assembly is configured to securely clasp the object. A propulsion sub-system is coupled to one or both of the cable and the clasp assembly. The propulsion sub-system is configured to maneuver the clasp assembly to the object.

An object is to provide a lifting-magnet attachment magnetic pole unit, a lifting magnet, a steel material conveying method, and a steel plate manufacturing method with which only one or a desired pieces of steel materials can be held. The present invention is a lifting-magnet attachment magnetic pole unit for a lifting magnet used to lift and convey a steel material with magnetic force. The lifting-magnet attachment magnetic pole unit includes a first split magnetic pole that is in contact with an iron core of the lifting magnet and has a branched structure, and a second split magnetic pole that is in contact with a yoke of the lifting magnet and has a branched structure. The first and second split magnetic poles are alternately arranged.

The disclosure herein include a magnetic tool for attaching to and moving a ferromagnetic workpiece that may include: a chassis having a magnetic face; a base rotatably coupled to the chassis; and a handle rotatably coupled to the base.

A system for handling pipes on a drilling rig includes an elevator suspended from a stand transfer vehicle, a top drive or other lifting device of a drilling rig. The system also includes a rig-floor pipe lifting machine including a fork sized to engage a tool-joint of a pipe. A navigation system includes a controller that can be programmed to autonomously drive the rig-floor pipe lifting machine.
