The system can include: a container no, a set of sensors 120, and a controller 130. The system can optionally include a robot 140. However, the system 100 can additionally or alternatively include any other suitable set of components. The system functions to monitor and/or maintain a fullness level of a container. The system can additionally or alternatively function to enable robotic picking out of the container (e.g., in a pick-and-place setting). The system can additionally function to maintain candidate objects within reach of the robot's end effector to increase robot uptime while minimizing the extent of the robot's required motion (e.g., in the z-axis).

A watercraft storage system for storing and concealing items on watercraft, which includes a suspendable shelf extending downwardly from and attaching to a select portion of the floorboard and connecting to a pair of end caps to form a containment enclosure for housing therewithin a scissor lift configured with an upper platform connecting to a base platform by a pair of moveable supports. A linear actuator connecting to the base platform and a lower forward shaft of the scissor lift operably sets in motion the moveable supports to lift and lower the upper platform relative to the base platform to respectively receive and store items temporarily below the floorboard so as to maintain continuity of the walkways associated with the watercraft.

A position adjustment mechanism for a lifting balance device contains: a first cover and an adjustment device. The first cover includes at least one lifting balance device, and each of the at least one lifting balance device includes a first support, a second support intersected with the first support, and a first shaft configured to connected the first and second supports. The first support includes a first roller arranged on a first end thereof adjacent to the first cover and accommodated in a first track groove on the first cover. The first track groove has the adjustment device arranged therein opposite to the first roller, such that the adjustment device is adjustable to limit a highest lifting position of each of the first support and the second support.

A robotic shuttle system includes a rack system and one or more shuttles. The rack system includes a rack and a shuttle frame. The rack has storage locations for containers containing items. The shuttle frame has rails disposed along the rack. The shuttle includes a powertrain, container transfer mechanism, and a robot arm. The power train is configured to move the shuttle along the rails of the rack and on a surface outside of the rack system. The container transfer mechanism is configured to transfer the containers between the rack and the shuttle. The robot arm extends from the shuttle to transfer the items between one of the containers on the shuttle and a container in a container holder of the shuttle.

A bed frame is provided that includes a lower frame and an upper frame having a first section, a second section and a third section. The second section is positioned between the first section and the third section. The first section is pivotable relative to the lower frame. The third section is fixed relative to the lower frame. The second section is pivotable relative to the first section and the third section. A lifting assembly includes a first end that is coupled to the lower frame and a second end that is coupled to the second section. The lifting assembly is configured to selectively move the second section toward and away from the lower frame.

Disclosed is a portable lift device that is capable of lifting one or more persons and a large windshield for installing a windshield in a recreational vehicle, charter bus or other large high-profile truck.

The invention relates to a lift table (1) for repairing and maintaining a vehicle, in particular a two-wheeled vehicle, said table (1) comprising a table top (2) surmounted by a wheel clamp (3) comprising two opposing jaws (4), between which one of the wheels of the vehicle is suitable for being clamped when the vehicle is in the state of being arranged on the table top (2), and a device (5) for driving upwards and downwards movement of said table top (2). The table top (2) and at least the surface of the wheel clamp (3) are made out of electrically-insulating material.

A manually operable height adjustable platform has a platform mounted to a base via an extensible scissor mechanism. At least one drive strut is mounted in a force path between the platform and the base and configured to bias the platform and the base away from one another via extension of the scissor mechanism. An actuation system controls movement of the platform and the base away from one another under the biasing force, where the actuation system has a manual actuator operatively connected to a pinion on one of the platform and scissor mechanism/base configured to engage a rack on the other of the platform and scissor mechanism/base. A manual actuator mounted above the platform operates the actuation system by an operator in normal use, and an override mechanism mounted below the platform acts on the drive strut for lowering of the platform without actuation of the manual actuator.

Motor vehicle having a storage space embodied as a recess and having a storage space base mounted movably in a lifting manner in the storage space by a lifting device. The storage space base is movable between a lower end position adjacent to a lower end region of the storage space and an upper end position located in the region of an upper-side opening of the storage space. The storage space base has at least one additional functional apparatus positioned on an underside of the storage space base and movable in a lifting manner jointly with a lifting movement of the storage space base.

A system for loading and unloading containers of items from transport vehicles and moving containers of items to and from desired locations using automated robots are disclosed. The system includes one or more automated robots, a base station, and one or more vehicle-based systems. The automated robots are configured to move to, lift, and carry containers of items. The base station is configured to coordinate the movements of the automated robots. The vehicle-based systems are associated with transport vehicles and configured to communicate information about containers on the transport vehicles to the base station or automated robots. The vehicle-based systems may call the one or more automated robots to automatically load or unload the transport vehicles.
