A lifting platform for motor vehicles includes: a platform for receiving a motor vehicle; at least one actuator mounted on the platform; at least two pairs of flexible traction elements, constrained with one end to fixed points and configured to be subjected to traction by the at least one actuator and thus cause the lifting of the platform; return means of the flexible traction elements and a carriage, stably attached to the at least one actuator and sliding along longitudinal rails, which are fixed to the platform and are constituted by metal guide profiles of rollers, mounted idle on the carriage, or by runners. The profiles are provided with a horizontal sliding wing of the rollers or shoes, presenting openings for engagement of locking devices applied to the carriage itself, to which the other end of the flexible traction elements is stably fixed.

A self-adjusting supporting head comprises a vehicle body lifting column (10) and a load-bearing detection device arranged on the vehicle body lifting column (10). The load-bearing detection device comprises a spring supporting plate (5), a spring (6), a limiting switch tip (8), a load limiting switch (9) and a floating load-bearing adjusting device. The floating load-bearing adjusting device comprises a floating load-bearing block (1), a floating load-bearing block mounting base (2) and a floating connector. The floating load-bearing block is in spherical fit with the floating load-bearing block mounting base.

A seating system according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a plurality of seating risers configured to telescope relative to one another. Further, at least one of the plurality of seating risers is a powered seating riser configured to deploy and retract the plurality of seating risers. The powered seating riser includes a belt drive system. Additionally, the plurality of seating risers are adjustable between a lowered position and a raised position.

A device for lifting and stabilizing loads which can be stabilized via two crossing, pivotably articulated telescopic struts that are interconnected in a synchronized manner so as to counter undesirable length variations as a result of forces acting in the cross-beam longitudinal direction, wherein connection of the telescopic struts is established via five traction parts, wherein one first traction part in the internal tube of each telescopic strut is mounted at both ends via a respective inner disk and outer disk, where a second traction part is mounted on two rotatable disks horizontally between the telescopic struts, where disks of the respective first and second traction parts each situated on one side are kinetically interconnected to transmit rotational movements between both disks, and where one further traction part is fastened in external tube, the further form-fitting traction part being kinetically connected to the inner disk of the first traction part.
