The invention is a kit for attaching to a truck cap to enable the cap to be lifted off of and lowered onto a truck by lines from above. The kit includes: a first rail and a second rail, each configured to attach to the truck cap; a first pair of sliding masts for releasably attaching to the first rail and a second pair of sliding masts for releasably attaching to the second rail. Each of the sliding mast includes: a sled which is captured by the rail, and is slidable along the rail, and is adapted to be secured at various points along the rail; and a brace with one end attached to the sled and the other end adapted to receive one of the lines. In another aspect, the kit includes multiple lifting devices.

A pulley block may include an alpha pulley block including an alpha connector, a beta pulley block including a beta connector, wherein the alpha pulley block is coupled to the beta pulley block when the alpha connector is coupled to the beta connector. At least one of the alpha connector and the beta connector may comprise magnets.

A device, system and method are used for hoisting and lowering a load. The device has a front plate that may be displaced to reveal a sheave. The device also has a friction accessory. The friction accessory is arranged to create friction between a rope and the device when a load is suspended from the device using the rope and where the device is secured to a support structure. The system may be prepared by an operator, having ascended to an elevated location, and further allows the operator to lower the load from the elevated location prior to descending.

A rack system which includes a rack frame and at least one reservoir for housing at least one rack-mounted immersion case is disclosed. The rack frame is configured to slidably accommodate racking and de-racking operations of the at least one rack-mounted immersion case. The at least one collapsible reservoir, which is configured to store a fluid therein, is fluidly connected to the at least one rack-mounted immersion case, has a first portion fixedly connected to the at least one rack-mounted immersion case, and a second portion fixedly connected to the rack frame. The at least one collapsible reservoir is configured to respectively collapse and expand along a racked space and a de-racked space, the racked and de-racked spaces being defined between a backplane of the at least one rack-mounted immersion case and a backplane of the rack frame, the de-racked space being larger than the racked space.

A device for moving an object is disclosed. The device has a drive cylinder with drive grooves and a set of idler pulleys. The idler pulleys are on a shaft that is parallel to the drive cylinder. Each of the idler pulleys rotate at an angle around the drive shaft that aligns the grooves of the idler pulleys to neighboring drive grooves. This allows the line to pass onto the drive groove, around an idler pulley, and onto a next adjacent drive groove. The line therefore winds back and forth between the drive grooves, the idler pulleys, and back to the next drive groove. One end of the line is placed under tension and the other is attached to an object or to a fixed member. The drive cylinder is driven and the line is moved through the device, or the device is moved along the line, respectively.

Diverting pulley arrangement, more particularly a diverting pulley arrangement of an elevator, which arrangement includes an axle, at least one diverting pulley that rotates while supported on the axle, a faceplate structure, in relation to which and supported by which the diverting pulley is arranged to rotate on the first side of the faceplate structure, which axle is locked so that it does not rotate by the aid of a locking element that moves in relation to the faceplate structure, which locking element is on the second side of the faceplate structure. When it starts to rotate, the end of the axle forces the locking element to displace out of its position and to trip a safety switch.
