A pneumatic jack includes a body, a lifting arm, and a bladder. Inflating the bladder applies downward pressure on a proximal end of the lifting arm and raises a distal end of the lifting arm. Subsequently deflating the bladder has the opposite effect. A mounting block at the distal end of the lifting arm allows the pneumatic jack to be used to raise and lower an object such as an automobile through inflation and deflation of the bladder.

A mould comprises a mould body (1) for forming therearound a body (60) with a body cavity which is accessible via an opening. The mould body is assembled from a set of mutually cohesive body parts (30,40). The body parts (30,40) are mutually releasable and removable from the body via the opening. An inflatable body (60) can be manufactured with the mould. The inflatable body (60) comprises a wall of elastomer material, which wall at least in an inflated state of the body bounds a body cavity accessible through a wall opening. The body is inflatable by filling the body cavity with a fluid.

An apparatus for lifting a mattress to an optimal work level so as to facilitate the bed making process. More specifically an apparatus for lifting a mattress, the apparatus including a generally rectangular ring shaped inflatable member with a generally constant cross section configured to be disposed between a mattress and a supporting structure of a bed in an unsecured manner; an air pump in fluid communication with the inflatable member, the air pump configured to inflate the inflatable member to a substantially uniform pressure throughout an entire perimeter of the inflatable member; a power supply in electrical communication with the air pump for providing power to operate the air pump; a switch in electrical communication between the power supply and the air pump configured for activating and deactivating the air pump; and a valve configured to control both inflation and deflation of the inflatable member.

A system and method for lifting a vehicle using compressed air is disclosed herein. The system includes a set of inflatable devices movable into an inflated position to lift the vehicle; and an air-line assembly connectable to a compressed air supply and to the set of the inflatable devices to move the set of inflatable devices into the inflated position. The system may lift the vehicle completely off of the ground in less than 30 seconds. As such, tire rotations, seasonal tire swaps, etc. are made easy and time effective.

An auxiliary tool to be employed when positioning elements, such as window and door frames is described, in relation to an adjacent flat or plane, such as within wall openings, whereby the auxiliary tool comprises an inflatable air cushion member (6) which through a hose connection means (10) is connected to a pumping device (12) and a bleeding valve (16). The air cushion member is shaped as a flat bag unit. The auxiliary tool furthermore comprises connecting elements (42, 46, 48) for the mutual fixation of an air cushion member (6) comprising one or more adjacent air cushion members which have two or more mutually fixed air cushion members (6) which selectively are inflatable. These are in a side by side relationship provided positioned in a common plane so that in total the flat bag unit sides form opposing sides within the auxiliary tool.

A railcar loading system utilizing roller ball track assemblies, or the like, in the center to enable cargo to be moved thereover in any direction (moving cargo in/out and within the railcar). Powered movement devices (e.g., rollers, conveyors) are utilized in the center to assist in movement of cargo in/out or within the railcar. Roller track assemblies, or the like, are utilized on sides of railcar to move cargo to/from the sides. Airbags may be utilized in track assemblies and powered movement devices to raise devices up when activated. Railcar may include an air connector on each side to provide air to solenoid valve that routes air to appropriate airbags. Cargo table is used to move cargo from cargo bay to railcar. Wireless controller may be used to control railcar and table including what tracks are raised and direction cargo is to be moved (what powered movements devices are operational).
