BLADE TRANSPORT VEHICLE
Disclosed herein is a blade transport vehicle which includes a base, a blade fixing frame disposed on the base, a first moving device disposed at an upper end of the base to move the blade fixing frame in a longitudinal direction of the base, and a second moving device disposed at an upper end of the first moving device to move the blade fixing frame in a width direction of the base.
Trailer for loading and unloading heat exchanger tube bundles
An improved trailer for loading and unloading a heat exchanger tube bundle is disclosed. The trailer provides for the transport of tube bundles and includes seal pans which capture debris and other materials falling from the tube bundle during transport. The present invention also provides for the periodic placement of slideable supports under a bundle as it is pushed onto a trailer.

Coil rack carrier
A coil rack carrier for guiding and carrying a plurality of coil racks includes a pair of upstanding front guide members laterally spaced apart from one another and a pair of upstanding rear guide members laterally spaced apart from one another. Each rear guide member defines a length that is greater than a length of each front guide member. One of the pair of rear guide members is rearwardly adjacent a first one of the front guide members so as to define a first channel therebetween. Similarly, another of the pair of rear guide members is rearwardly adjacent a second one of the front guide members so as to define a second channel therebetween. For stowage the plurality of coil racks is sequentially received into the first and second channels.

PIPE SECURING SYSTEM FOR HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLES AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING A PIPE ON A HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLE
A pipe securing system for modular heavy-duty vehicles includes at least one support beam and at least one bearing device that is arranged on the support beam in the bearing state and next to the support beam in the resting state. A method for supporting a pipe on a modular heavy-duty is also provided. The pipe securing system and the method provide a space-saving system that dispenses with external lifting equipment, such as forklifts or cranes, and can be used both in a production hall and outside in the open.
Wind turbine blade railroad fixture system and method
A rail fixture system for wind turbine blades on a consist three flatcars, includes a root-support fixture that enables lateral movement, a mid-support fixture with a pair of lateral guides on opposing sides of the to limit the blade's lateral movement, and blade-pusher posts adjacent a curved portion of the blade, coupled to gravity weights, that intermittently engage sides of the blade and apply gravity forces in response to relative lateral movement thereof around rail curves, and which bends the blade, applies a fulcrum force against the lateral guides, and translates the root end of the blade in an opposing lateral direction.
