A vehicle, in particular an industrial truck, comprising at least one support roller and a method for stabilizing a vehicle.

A pallet is provided for supporting cylinders. The pallet can have a convex spine extending substantially the length of the pallet in a longitudinal direction, having a backstop at a first end. The pallet has one or more trays attached transverse to the convex spine, each tray having longitudinal fluted indents to restrain a cylinder from rolling transverse, the longitudinal fluted indents are each arranged to accept a cylinder from above. The pallet has a left outrigger attached and extending transverse to the convex spine, the left outrigger stabilizing the pallet with respect to terrain, as well as a right outrigger attached and extending transverse to the convex spine, the right outrigger stabilizing the pallet with respect to terrain. The pallet can have a coupling extending from an end of the convex spine, wherein the coupling is arranged to take a crane hook in engagement to pull the pallet.

Systems and methods are provided for securing a transport device to preexisting studs or support members. One embodiment includes a clamp assembly with a compression fitting adapted to be secured to a plurality of different sized studs or wall supports, and further to support additional supports including, but not limited, horizontal support members. A transport device is further provided that is selectively connectable to clamp and support members of the disclosure. In another embodiment, a hook bracket is provided which includes a projection configured to be positioned in a hole through a stud. The extension may include a notch to engage a portion of the stud. The hook bracket includes at least one aperture adapted to secure the hook bracket to a support member operatively interconnected to the transport device.

Method for transporting a container or pallet with cargo, wherein at least one transport device is used comprising a frame consisting of an elongate central member (11) and carrying beams (12), each carrying beam (12) extending perpendicular to the central member (11) in the same direction from a different end of the central member (11) thus forming a generally U-shaped frame, wherein in use said U-shaped frame extends in a generally horizontal orientation, said carrying beams being arranged to engage and carry a bottom part of a container or a pallet, wherein the bottom side of said frame is provided with a plurality of air bearings (13) arranged to lift said frame with said cargo from a flat floor surface, wherein a container or pallet to be transported is moved into or out of a vehicle at an transshipment location, wherein for transporting said container or pallet in or out of said vehicle said container or pallet is engaged and lifted by said at least one transport device by activating said air bearings (13), wherein said transport device is moved in and/or out of said vehicle while said air bearings (13) are activated, and wherein said transport device is disengaged from said container or pallet by deactivating said air bearings (13).

A drive unit includes a support frame, a drive wheel and a prime mover. The support frame is disposed to be pivotable about a pivot axis. The drive wheel is supported by the support frame. The prime mover is supported by the support frame. The prime mover drives the drive wheel. The support frame and at least one member form a pivot unit. The at least one member pivots together with the support frame. The pivot unit has a center of gravity disposed on the opposite side of the pivot axis with respect to the drive wheel.

Systems and embodiments herein describe an augmented reality (AR) object rendering system. The AR object rendering system receives an image, generates a set of noise parameters and a set of blur parameters for the image using a neural network trained on a paired dataset of images, identifies an AR object associated with the image, modifies the AR object using the set of noise parameters and the set of blur parameters, displays the modified augmented reality object within the image.

Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for a galley lift. In one embodiment, the galley lift includes an upper portion and a lower portion.
