A ratcheting chain binder including a mechanical release to allowing the body to be freely moveable up to a fully extended position.

The tiedown hook is a mechanism that welds an inventive hook to an automobile accessory for tying and untying knots with tiedown to secure objects during transportation. The present invention relates to functional tiedown hook for automobile accessories such as truck racks, trailers, etc. More particularly, the inventive concept of the tiedown hook is beneficial since tiedown need to be carefully secured when vehicle is moving.

Systems, methods, and vehicles for loading and unloading cargo from a long-distance transport vehicle, such as an aircraft, are described. The systems and methods include operating a plurality of vehicles to unload large cargo from the aircraft and transporting the large cargo to an installation site. In some instances, the vehicles hold the payload the entire time, including while loading aircraft, during flight, unloading the aircraft, and moving the payload to the installation site. Alternatively, the vehicles can drive on the plane to load the payload to a designated area, and equivalent vehicles can drive on the plane after the payload has been flown to unload the payload and moving the payload to the installation site. Various vehicles and systems, and components thereof, along with methods of operating the same, are also provided.

A winch for securing a load to a vehicle a is disclosed. The winch includes a mounting bracket with opposed flanges. The winch further includes a drum extending along an axis between a first end and a second end. The drum is mounted relative to the opposed flanges so that the drum is rotatable about its axis. The winch includes a gear received on the drum and a worm configured to mesh with the gear so that a rotation of the worm causes a rotation of the gear. The winch further includes a clutch assembly between the drum and the gear. The clutch assembly is biasable between a first configuration in which the gear is fixed relative to the drum about the axis of the drum and a second configuration in which the gear is rotatable relative to the drum about the axis of the drum.

This invention discloses a connector device with a particular T shape, which allows for the connection of two pieces of lumber in a perpendicular fashion. A user secures the connector device to two pieces lumber and fit it within a truck bed, setting up three separate compartments for storage within the truck bed. By using two or more connector devices, and three or more pieces of lumber, at least four separate compartments can be created.

A combination tie down lug and step riser includes a foot support portion, a hold down loop and a mounting portion. The combination tie down lug and step riser is preferably fabricated from a single piece of material. The foot support portion includes a plurality of projections extending upward from a top edge thereof. The hold down loop extends from one end of the foot rest portion. The hold down loop includes a U-shaped opening with the U-shaped opening positioned along a horizontal axis. The mounting portion extends from an opposing end of the foot support portion. Opposing ends of the hold down loop and the mounting portion are attached to an excavator base with welding or any other suitable attachment method.

Described is a tiedown winder. It has a base member having a magnetised region to allow the base member to be selectively secured one of a plurality of ferrous parts of a vehicle to become releaseable secured thereto. It also has an axle able, in a use position, to engage with said base member in a manner to allow rotation of the axle relative the base member and presenting a winding zone about which a tie down can be wound.

A load tension assembly including—an enclosure formed by a first side and a second side opposite to the first side and connected to the first side at a first end and a second, wherein the Enclosure includes a primary float capability great enough to maintain floatation of the load tension assembly, is disclosed herein
