A stationary platform for supporting a supply transport device is provided. The stationary platform includes a frame having at least two longitudinal sides, a first end and a second opposing end, and a top surface and a bottom surface, and a plurality of legs extending from the bottom surface of the frame to support the supply transport device on the frame. The supply transport device is slidably received on the top surface of the frame. A wheel base assembly having a cleaning device for contacting a bottom surface of the supply transport device, to remove dirt and debris from or to disinfect the supply transport device, is also provided.

A high capacity cargo/container dolly. The cargo/container dolly includes retractable side stops that actively retract a roller linkage assembly upon retraction of the retractable side stops rather than relying on passive gravitational forces for the retraction. In some embodiments, the retractable side stops are configured to avoid hold up on the cargo during retraction. The retractable side stops may be coupled to a retraction mechanism that may be actuated from either side of the cargo/container dolly, as well as from one or both ends of the cargo/container dolly. The dolly may include aspects that accommodates dynamic loads that occur during transport to mitigate inadvertent retraction of the retractable side stops or spurious release of catch assemblies that retains cargo on the dolly. The dolly may also include self-locking roller assemblies that release only in the presence of cargo, and deck modules that protect the deck roller from road spray contamination.

A wind turbine blade suspension and rotation device capable of raising and lowering the blade includes a blade housing configured to receive a blade and having at least one guide on an exterior surface; a base; a first telescopic frame disposed on a first side of the base; a second telescopic frame disposed on a second side of the base; at least one adjustable strap, the adjustable strap disposed between the adjustable frames; wherein the at least one strap extends through the guide on the exterior surface of the housing to suspend the blade.

A personal watercraft rotisserie includes a lower frame having a pair of longitudinal members and a pair of lateral members, a support structure affixed to each lateral member of the lower frame, and an upper frame having a pair of longitudinal members and a pair of lateral members. Each lateral member of the upper frame is rotatably coupled to the support structures, such that the upper frame is rotatable about its longitudinal axis. The upper frame supports a personal watercraft which can be adjustably secured thereto via straps or other fasteners. A locking mechanism is configured to selectively secure the upper frame in a fixed position relative to the lower frame. In this way, an individual can support a personal watercraft in a desired rotational position to easily access the upper and lower hull for maintenance or repairs.

A roller platform apparatus includes a rigid plate, a set of bearings mounted on the rigid plate, and a set of one or more bars attached to the rigid plate. The set of bars is configured to restrict movement of a load into a space between the set of bearings and lower than the height of the one of more bars, and the height of the one or more bars is lower than the height of the first set of bearings and higher than the rigid plate. At least one advantage in this approach is that an equipment rack can be transported without the use of casters that are permanently attached to the equipment rack.

A wind turbine blade apparatus comprising a root device including: a base having an upper surface with a radius of curvature and configured to receive a root portion of a blade, with housings disposed on lateral sides of the base. The housings including a groove configured to receive a bearing and a shaft extending at least partially through the base and housing. A tip device is also provided which includes a base, a rotatable support frame having: a first support configured to receive a pressure side of a wind turbine blade, a second support configured to receive a suction side of a wind turbine blade, and an opening, the opening configured to receive a portion of a wind turbine blade.

To provide a moving apparatus including cylindrical rotating bodies each having a surface section that functions as a driving wheel or a working member. A moving apparatus includes three or more cylindrical rotating bodies, and a plurality of coupling members, each of which couples two of the cylindrical rotating bodies together such that an angle between the cylindrical rotating bodies is smaller than 180°, where each of the three or more cylindrical rotating bodies includes a motor, and an exterior body configured to be rotated by the motor, where the three or more cylindrical rotating bodies are configured to form a closed polygonal shape to hold an elongated member R including a rope, whereby the moving apparatus is movable along the elongated member.

A wind turbine blade apparatus comprising a root device including: a base having an upper surface with a radius of curvature and configured to receive a root portion of a blade, with housings disposed on lateral sides of the base. The housings including a groove configured to receive a bearing and a shaft extending at least partially through the base and housing. A tip device is also provided which includes a base, a rotatable support frame having: a first support configured to receive a pressure side of a wind turbine blade, a second support configured to receive a suction side of a wind turbine blade, and an opening, the opening configured to receive a portion of a wind turbine blade.

A lift mechanism. The lift mechanism includes a base configured to support the lift mechanism in an upright position. A neck is upstanding from the base. A lift bracket is coupled to the neck. A coupling bracket includes a U-shape having a base and arms extending from opposing ends of the base. The base is coupled to the lift bracket. A linear actuator is configured to move the lift bracket up and down along the neck.

An apparatus is provided for receiving, temporarily storing and dispensing bank note containers as well as to a transport apparatus dockable thereto. The present invention further relates to a system arrangement comprising the proposed apparatus as well as the proposed transport apparatus. Further, a method arranged for operating the system arrangement is proposed as well as a computer program product having control commands executing the proposed method or operating the proposed system arrangement.
