Method and apparatus for improved height adjustment of wall partitions. According to the present disclosure, an extendable Foot Controlled Elevator Device is placed beneath a wall partition. A user may then apply downward force on a Vertical Height Control to adjust the vertical position of the wall partition. In some embodiments, the Foot Controlled Elevator Device has a compressible base, allowing it to fit into tight areas (e.g., between toilets in a restroom under construction). In other embodiments, one or more Foot Controlled Elevator Devices may be linked, allowing for better control over the wall divider and simultaneous or distinct control of the respective Foot Controlled Elevator Devices.

An improved vehicle jack includes a motorized lift plate that either raises or lowers a vehicle when the motor is operated in one of two directions. The jack also includes a lug-nut removal tool formed of a telescoping, pivotal shaft having an adjustable head at an upper end. A plurality of motorized, magnetized sockets are positioned on the head for tightening and loosening lug nuts. Accordingly, the lift plate is activated to raise the vehicle, and the sockets are properly positioned to automatically remove, retain, and reinstall the wheel's lug nuts.

A portable article lifter, separator, and compressor capable moving a variety of articles. The core components are a frame, a motor, a power source, and a set of interchangeable end effectors suitable for moving different types of articles. This device is used to lift an article, separate multiple articles from each other, and compress one or more articles. Multiple devices can operate collaboratively to move a large and/or heavy article via daisy chaining the devices using synchronization modules. A transmission between the motor and the end effector controls the speed and the torque of the end effector. The device further provides an ON/Off module, a frame base, a handle, a level, wheels and rollers, and a work light.

A battery swapping apparatus includes a movable base, a locking and unlocking mechanism, and a scissor type lifting mechanism. The locking and unlocking mechanism is configured to lock a battery to an electrical device or unlock the battery from the electrical device. The scissor type lifting mechanism is configured to drive the locking and unlocking mechanism to move up and down. The scissor type lifting mechanism includes a scissor unit, a driving member, a first transmission member, and a second transmission member. The first transmission member is mounted on the scissor unit and forms a slope fit with the second transmission member. The driving member is configured to drive the second transmission member to move, so as to drive the scissor unit to perform a scissor movement through the first transmission member.

A carrying mobile robot includes a frame, a suspension system disposed at the bottom of the frame, and a lifting mechanism disposed on the frame. The suspension system includes two suspension mechanisms disposed on the left and right sides, each of which includes a supporting beam, a driving wheel, a connecting member and a first driven wheel. The first driven wheel and the driving wheel respectively support the front and rear ends of the supporting beam, and the connecting member is connected to the supporting beam and located between the driving wheel and the first driven wheels. The lifting mechanism includes a plurality of lifting members, a first driving system for driving the lifting member and a transmission system for transmitting the driving force of the first drive system to the lifting members.

The present invention is a lifting mechanism with lift stand accommodation, which is used to allow a lift stand to reside within its bounding space. The present invention comprises a lifting mechanism and a Y-shaped chassis. The Y-shaped chassis comprises a lift mechanism housing and a U-shaped base. The U-shaped base comprises a base slot that allows a jack stand frame to be inserted between its left and right end. The lifting mechanism is used to raise and lower an object from its initial position. The lifting mechanism comprises a left support arm, a right support arm, a lift arm and a U-shaped lift platform. The U-shaped platform comprises a platform slot that can allow a jack stand saddle to be inserted between its left platform end and right platform end. A brace maintains the rigidity of the lift arm, the left support arm, and the right support arm.

A lift-truck having a height adjustable load engagement means and a lifting/lowering unit and a support wheel and a climbing wheel and comprising a detection sensor arranged to detect a pallet located in front of the load engagement means and in a control unit to control the lifting/lowering unit, in response to a signal indicative of a detected pallet, to move the load engagement means to place the climbing wheel at a first predetermined height over the ground surface and, control the lifting/lowering unit to lower the load engagement means to place the climbing wheel at a second predetermined height over the ground surface when an operational parameter, indicative of movement of the lift-truck, equals a predetermined value.
