A vehicle, cargo transfer device of the vehicle and a method of transferring a package between a vehicle to a delivery platform. A lift platform is extended from a floor of the vehicle via a support structure. The package is moved to the lift platform from one of the floor and the delivery platform. The lift platform is rotated via a turntable through a rotation angle. The support structure supports the turntable and the lift platform. The package is moved from the lift platform to the other of the floor and the delivery platform.

A load-lifting device for mounting on a vehicle, including a platform for receiving a load which can be brought from a lowered into a raised working position, and back again, as well as a linking lever, a support element, a drive element and a connection element. The linking lever that is pivotally mounted on the platform is linked to the vehicle at a linking end region. The support element attached to the platform includes a foot end which braces the ground. The drive element brings the support element from a resting state associated with the resting position of the platform, into a working state in which the foot end is braced on the ground and the platform is raised into the working position. The connection element functions to control the rotational position of the linking lever and the pivot position of the platform according to the support element.

A mobile orthodontic treatment system includes comprising a mobile trailer and a panoramic machine provided within the trailer. The panoramic machine is configured to obtain a 2-D image of a patient's mouth and includes a base secured to the floor of the housing and a stanchion secured to the trailer by a bracket. The mobile orthodontic treatment system further includes a digital scanner and a monitor provided within the housing. The digital scanner is configured to obtain a 3-D image of the patient's mouth and display the image on the monitor. The digital scanner and the monitor are mounted on a wall of the housing by a wall mount articulating bracket. The mobile orthodontic treatment system further includes a lift assembly provided on one of a side and an end of the housing to enable disabled people to enter and exit the housing.

A vehicle intelligent lifting system, configured to be mounted to a vehicle body including a Controller Area Network (CAN) bus, is provided, including: a control module, in communication with the CAN bus, configured to obtain a signal from the CAN bus; a lifting device, in communication with the control module; wherein the control module determines whether to control the lifting device to operate according to vehicle information from the CAN bus.

A mobile automobile service and charging Center 50 with a trailer opening to intake multiple vehicles simultaneously by using multiple walls extending to the exterior used to lift and transverse automobiles to the interior for service. Interior mechanisms are hydraulic, magnetic, and air pressure operated to further lift and modify the position of the vehicle in service. The interior includes multiple electric charging stations, an interactive maintenance display center, multiple automated sensing devices used to detect car type and diagnose malfunctions, internal/external part delivery portals, lounge, a restroom, conference room, and mechanic sanitation areas. In all configurations the mobile automobile service and charging Center is a powered double decker, solar power supplemented mobile trailer. When dispatched for diagnostic and maintenance the Center will externally to the trailer or internally lift automobiles to an appropriate height based on the best ergonomic position for the mechanic and transverse the vehicles in to the mobile Center based on sensor feedback and mechanic biometrics. The Center provides multiple options for service from below or above the automobile, with floors that lower and a roof that will open to allow for above automobile servicing. Telescopic and piston driven support chairs and platforms are internally deployed to allow mechanics an efficient ergonomic seating, standing, or lying position to provide service without discomfort. Contained within the mobile service center are sensors designed to diagnose, track automobile location and service history, track tools and to display technologies to facilitate high efficiency automobile service; such as alternator replacements, oil changes, battery charging, hose replacements, spark plug replacements and other diagnostic, service, and charging services. All data gathered by the interactive service Center is logged and analyzed by intelligent predicting software to provide customers with the best performance and service data for each Automobile that enters and exits the Center.

A liftgate in accordance with the present disclosure includes a lift mechanism and a moveable load platform. The load platform includes a proximal deck section, a distal deck section, and a center deck section positioned between the proximal deck section and the distal deck section. The load platform is selectively vertically movable between a lowered position and a raised position. The proximal deck section, center deck section, and distal deck section are pivotally coupled to one another such that the load platform is selectively moveable between an extended-operational position, wherein all of the deck sections are located substantially coplanar with one another for supporting cargo, and a retracted-stored position wherein the deck sections are folded with respect to one another and are located substantially parallel and adjacent to one another.

A transportable personal elevation device is attachable to a substrate which is a vehicle or trailer bed. The elevation device includes a platform assembly including a platform and a platform support member. The elevation device also includes a connector assembly including a pivot pin and a mounting structure. The connector assembly is configured and arranged such that when attached to the substrate, the elevation device can be pivotally moved about the pivot pin between a storage position and an outwardly extending position. The elevation device may also include a latch assembly for temporarily fixing a position of the device, and may further include a post which is attached to a side of the platform assembly to permit grasping thereof by a user. The elevation device may take the form of a pivotable stair assembly, or alternatively, may include a power-assisted platform which can be selectively raised and lowered.

Cargo loading systems for use with a cargo storage area of a vehicle are described. In one form, the cargo loading system has a mast frame and a carriage assembly supported by the mast frame. The carriage assembly has lifting forks, and a fork lateral control mechanism configured to control lateral movement of the lifting forks across the carriage assembly. A carriage pivot control mechanism controls pivotal movement of the carriage assembly relative to the mast frame about a first vertical axis. A fork pivot control mechanism controls pivotal movement of the lifting forks relative to the carriage assembly about a second vertical axis, between a first position in which the lifting forks extend away from the carriage assembly and a second position in which the lifting forks extend along carriage assembly. A carriage vertical control assembly controls raising and lowering of the carriage assembly relative to the mast frame, and a mast frame actuating assembly controls lateral movement of the mast frame relative to an open end of the cargo storage area of the vehicle.

A liftgate in accordance with the present disclosure includes a lift mechanism and a moveable load platform. The load platform includes a proximal deck section, a distal deck section, and a center deck section positioned between the proximal deck section and the distal deck section. The load platform is selectively vertically movable between a lowered position and a raised position. The proximal deck section, center deck section, and distal deck section are pivotally coupled to one another such that the load platform is selectively moveable between an extended-operational position, wherein all of the deck sections are located substantially coplanar with one another for supporting cargo, and a retracted-stored position wherein the deck sections are folded with respect to one another and are located substantially parallel and adjacent to one another.
