Self-propelled trailer
A self-propelled trailer is provided and includes a frame, an extension device, and a storage bin. The extension device includes a first extension section with a trailing end rotatably connected to the frame and an extendable second extension section rotatably connected to a leading end of the first extension section. The storage bin is secured to the extension device.
Vehicle trailer system
A vehicle trailer system for loading, transporting and unloading a load includes a trailer front structure for attachment to a towing vehicle; a pivotable structure pivotally coupled to the trailer front structure and including a transversely-movable structure for a load to slide or roll thereupon. An actuator allows causing transverse movement of the transversely-movable structure relative to a main body of the pivotable structure. A carriage mounted for bidirectional travel on the main body of the pivotable structure, the carriage including a carriage hitch for pivotably coupling a load. The transversely-movable structure in combination with the pivotably coupling carriage hitch allow correcting virtually any misalignments between the cargo container and the trailer, and clearing virtually any obstacle, in such a way that cargo containers will be able to be loaded and unloaded by small vehicles and in practically any location.
EXTENDABLE TILT ASSEMBLY SYSTEM
Improvements to U.S. Pat. No. 9,346,389, Cargo Handling System, are desirable in order to tilt either the lower or upper extendable assembly independently or together to facilitate proper cleaning and to increase options for tilting, hauling, loading, and unloading purposes. The Extendable Tilt Assembly System is created by adding a tailgate guide assembly and modifying the guide assembly, the lower extendable assembly and the upper extendable assembly of U.S. Pat. No. 9,346,389.

Vehicle with Side Dump and Rear Dump Beds
A utility vehicle includes a wheeled chassis and a side-dump bed. The wheeled chassis includes a chassis frame extending along a fore-and-aft vehicle axis. The side-dump bed is configured to contain and selectively discharge material toward a dump side of the wheeled chassis. The side-dump bed is shiftably attached to the chassis frame for movement between a lowered condition, in which the side-dump bed extends laterally from the dump side of the wheeled chassis to the other side, and a raised condition, in which the side-dump bed is shifted toward the dump side to discharge material.
Adjustment apparatus for container installation
An apparatus comprising a chassis, a mast movably coupled with the chassis, a first actuator operable to pivot the mast with respect to the chassis along a substantially vertical plane, and a second actuator operable to move the mast in a lateral direction with respect to the chassis along a substantially horizontal plane. The mast may support an oilfield material container. By pivoting the mast, the first actuator may be operable to pivot the oilfield material container with respect to the chassis along a substantially vertical plane. By moving the mast, the second actuator may be operable move the oilfield material container in a lateral direction with respect to the chassis along a substantially horizontal plane.

Inertia-Driven Dump Load Container For Vehicles
An inertia-driven dump load apparatus is provided in association with motor vehicles. The inertia-driven dump load includes a container defined by two side walls and a front wall; and at least one pivotable connection means connecting the container to the vehicle bed. To operate the inertia-driven dump load apparatus, the apparatus is first placed within a vehicle bed. Once the apparatus is in place, material to be dumped can be loaded into the apparatus. Then, the vehicle is driven to a location where the dumping of the materials is desired. Finally, a force is applied to the apparatus such that the apparatus moves across the vehicle bed so that the apparatus tips over a tailgate of the vehicle bed so that the material to be dumped is dumped.
Transport machine
A transport machine is provided with a traveling device, a vehicle body, a vessel, a support device and a load detection device. At least a portion of the vehicle body is arranged above the traveling device. The vessel is provided on the vehicle body. The support device includes a slide mechanism that moves the vessel in a lateral direction with respect to the vehicle body, the lateral direction intersecting with a traveling direction of the traveling device when the transport machine travels straight. The load detection device detects a state of a load on the vessel. The slide mechanism is controlled based on a result of detection by the load detection device.
