STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR SECURING AND TRANSPORTING EQUIPMENT RACKS

A clamping device secures an equipment rack during shipping. The clamping device includes a gripping portion having first and second surfaces positionable along opposing sides of a respective one of a front and rear lateral logistic bar. The clamping device also includes a clamp mechanism attached to the gripping portion for movement between a disengaged position and an engaged position to selectively engage the first and second surfaces to the opposing sides of the respective one of the front and rear lateral logistic bars positioned adjacent to an equipment rack within a carrier shipping enclosure. A mounting feature is attached to the gripping portion to hold one end of a longitudinal logistic bar positioned along a lateral side of the equipment rack.

SUSPENDED BULKHEADS FOR ENCLOSED CARGO TRANSPORTERS

Example bulkheads for cargo transporters (e.g., refrigerated trailers, trucks, reefers, and containers) are disclosed. An example bulkhead includes an overhead track system mountable to an enclosed cargo transporter within a cargo storage area. A first carriage is attached to the overhead track system. The first carriage is movable relative to the overhead track system in at least one of a lateral direction or a longitudinal direction while being guided by the overhead track system. A first panel is suspended by the first carriage from the overhead track system, where the weight of the first panel is substantially supported by the overhead track system via the first carriage.

Mobile body system

Provided is a mobile body system including a traveling unit having an autonomous traveling function and a trolley unit having a housing portion for loading an object. A detection unit detects an amount of objects placed on the housing portion. A control unit determines an operation of the traveling unit based on the amount of objects detected by the detection unit.

Tonneau cover assembly with tonneau divider

A tonneau cover system for a truck bed according to the present disclosure includes at least one tonneau panel configured to couple to a truck bed. The panel has a generally planar body with an exterior side and an interior side. The system additionally includes a generally planar movable flap coupled to the interior side. The movable flap is movable between a stowed position and a deployed position. In the stowed position the flap is disposed proximate and coplanar with the panel body, and in the deployed position the flap extends generally orthogonal from the body. The system additionally includes retention mechanism configured to selectively retain the flap in the deployed position or the stowed position.

Tanker truck with soft start/stop system
10029830 · 2018-07-24 ·

A tanker vehicle for distributing liquid on a surface includes a chassis that supports a tank for holding the liquid. A fluid pump discharges the liquid from the tank and is driven by a hydraulic motor. A hydraulic system delivers hydraulic fluid to the motor through a supply line and returns the fluid to a tank through a return line. A bypass circuit is disposed between the supply line and the return line, bypassing the motor. The bypass circuit includes a system for providing a combination soft start and soft stop of the hydraulic motor that is configured to enable hydraulic fluid to flow from the supply line through the bypass circuit to the return line at a start of the hydraulic system and to flow from the return line through the bypass circuit to the supply line at a shutdown of the hydraulic system.

Hinged Truck Bed Stop
20180201178 · 2018-07-19 ·

A truck bed stop, including a bottom base; an upper base, hingedly attached to the bottom base; one or more attachment points disposed on the upper base portion; and one or more attachment rods, wherein a first end of one of the one or more attachment rods is configured to attach to one of the one or more attachment points disposed on the upper base and a second end of the one of the one or more attachment rods is configured to attach to one of one or more secondary anchor points, and wherein the one or more attachment rods are configured to hold the upper base in an angled position relative to the bottom base.

Package delivery vehicle

A vehicle for delivering packages, comprising a tractor comprising a motor, a pair of front wheels, a rear wheel, and a rail between the pair of front wheels and the rear wheel, and a removable container comprising a space for storing packages where a bottom of the container is configured to fit over and mount to the rail.

Structure and method for securing and transporting equipment racks

A shipping apparatus utilizes logistic bars attached laterally across a carrier shipping enclosure such as truck trailer or shipping container. The logistic bars can engage tracks attached to lateral sidewalls of the carrier shipping enclosure. One or more equipment racks are positioned behind one of the lateral logistic bars. Another logistic bar is placed behind the one or more equipment racks. Each of the equipment racks are secured in place by clamping devices positioned along a respective lateral logistic bar to be proximate to a respective corner of the equipment rack. Longitudinal logistic bars are engaged to a pair of the clamping devices that are on opposing lateral sides of the equipment rack. The shipping apparatus provides a rigid structure that is appropriately positioned without damaging components within the equipment rack and preventing swaying during transport of the equipment rack.
