TRUCK LOADING SYSTEM
A loading/unloading system for an associated truck bed includes first and second laterally spaced rails configured for re) receipt in the associated truck bed. First and second support leg assemblies are operatively associated with the first and second rails, respectively. First and second motors are received on the first and second leg assemblies, respectively, and are configured to selectively raise and lower the first and second rails. A sensor assembly is mounted on the rails to monitor the position of the first rail relative to the second rail. The sensor assembly is interconnected to the first and second motors for maintaining the rails at the same height relative to one another.
MATERIALS TRANSPORT VEHICLE
A vehicle on which a container (1) is mounted for transporting materials, said container comprising a movable partition (10) extending transversely inside the container. The vehicle comprises a motor (16) pulling on a pair of cables (14a, 14b), the front ends of which are connected to the partition (10) on either side, in order to pull the partition (10) towards the rear of the container so as to unload the materials. The cables run along the side walls (4a, 4b) of the container, at a distance from a bottom of the container. The side walls (4a, 4b) of the container have projections (24a, 24b) each extending towards the inside of the container and overhanging the cables so that said cables are protected from falling materials during loading of the container from above.
APPARATUS FOR MOVING AND SECURING ARTICLES IN A PICKUP TRUCK CARGO BED
An apparatus is provided for moving and securing articles in a pickup truck cargo bed. The pickup truck cargo bed may have opposing sidewalls, cab wall, tailgate, and floor. The apparatus comprises a plurality of tracks configured to connect to the pickup truck cargo bed, the plurality of tracks extending substantially along a longitudinal length of the pickup truck cab and defining a channel. A push plate slidably is mounted to the plurality of tracks with a movement member, and the push plate configured to stand perpendicular to the floor. The apparatus also comprises an actuator in mechanical communication with the push plate, the actuator configured to move the push plate to a desired position in the pickup truck cargo bed. An adjustable enclosed area is defined by the push plate, opposing side walls, and tail gate.
Trailer bed mounted load plow system
The present disclosure of the Improved Trailer Bed Load Plow concerns a highly customizable, legacy trailer compatible, removable, system for unloading trailer loads and/or flat bed loads. The system, generally speaking, comprises a sled, a plow, a controllable puller such as a winch, guide rails, detents, and an attachment point on the trailer. In some implementations, the plow and puller are attached to the sled, and the combined unit travels the length of the trailer bed, constrained by the guide rails to lateral travel, via the force created by the puller acting against the attachment point which is effectively positioned on an end of the trailer.
PARTICULATE MATERIAL HAULAGE ARRANGEMENT
A haulage arrangement has a frame configured for operative attachment to a suitable tractor, and defining a tray for operatively receiving particulate material therein. The tray comprises two side walls separated by a loadbearing lower section with a headwall at a head end of the tray and slidably arranged in-between the side walls. Also included is an urger at the head end configured to operatively urge the headwall to slide across the lower section. Arrangement further includes an elastically flexible floor slidably arranged on the lower section and fast at a first end with the headwall, as well as a retractor arranged at an ejection end of the tray and configured to continuously retract a second end of the floor underneath the lower section whilst the headwall is urged. The retractor is further configured to agitate the floor during retraction to counteract adhesion of particulate material ejected from the tray.
TRAILER CONVEYOR SYSTEM AND METHOD
Trailer trolley-type conveyor system, comprising a plurality of the elongated rails adapted for installation on a trailer bed, a conveyor system frame adapted for transport back and forth along the rails within a trailer's exterior framework, a plurality of wheels mounted on the frame and adapted for rolling carriage of the frame on the rails, at least one winch adapted for mounting onto the trailer and adapted for pulling the frame with any cargo thereon back and forth along the rails; and at least one lock engaged with one of the frame, the wheels, and the rails, adapted for preventing movement of the conveyor system frame during transport of the trailer.
Trailer Bed Mounted Load Plow System

The system, generally speaking, comprises a sled, a plow, a controllable puller such as a winch, guide rails, detents, and an attachment point on the trailer. In some implementations, the plow and puller are attached to the sled, and the combined unit travels the length of the trailer bed, constrained by the guide rails to lateral travel, via the force created by the puller acting against the attachment point which is effectively positioned on an end of the trailer.
Agricultural bale carriage wings
An agricultural baler includes a baler mechanism and a carriage assembly. The carriage assembly is coupled to the baler mechanism. The carriage assembly includes a fixed section and at least one extending section. The extending section is extendable in a direction generally normal to the direction of travel.

Trailer Loading and Unloading System
A Trailer Loading/Unloading System may comprise a tilting flatbed trailer having one or more push bars configured to move along the surface of the trailer bed push palletized cargo off the trailer, move palletized cargo back and forth on the trailer, and prevent rapid descent or undesirable slipping of palletized cargo. Each of the push bars may be secured between a chain on the left side of the trailer bed and a chain on the right side of the trailer bed. These two chains may loop around a rear guide shaft at the rear of the trail and a front guide bar shaft at the front of the trailer. The guide shafts may be secured beneath the surface of the trailer, and may include sprockets around which the chains loop. A motor, e.g., a winch, may be secured to the trailer and may drive, using a sprocket and chain running around a shaft protruding from the motor, one of the guide shafts, e.g., the front shaft, by turning a sprocket mechanically secured to the front guide shaft. The Trailer Loading/Unloading System may further comprise a hydraulic lift actuator for raising the front of the trailer, thereby tilting the trailer. Palletized cargo may be unloaded from the trailer by raising the front of the trailer and thereby tilting the trailer, actuating the motor to push palletized cargo toward the rear of the trailer, and pulling the trailer forward when the edge of the palletized cargo is touching the ground.
