Traffic cones and traffic cone lanterns placement and collection system and a method
The present disclosure provides a traffic cones and traffic cone lanterns placement and collection system and a method. The system comprises: a vehicle body, on which a loading bay and a storage bay are disposed; an on-vehicle first robot arm, which is used for moving a traffic cone of the loading bay and a traffic cone lantern thereon off the vehicle body, or collect them from outside of the vehicle to the loading bay; an on-vehicle second robot arm, which is used for moving a traffic cone and a traffic cone lantern to and from the loading bay for storage management; at least one object recognition sensor, which is used for capturing the information of a road traffic marking and the information of the objects on the road; and a processing unit, which is used for working out the position of the road traffic marking and the position information of the objects on the road, and controlling the robot arms' motion accordingly to move the traffic cone of the loading bay and the traffic cone lantern thereon outside of the vehicle body, or collect them from outside of the vehicle. The disclosure enables both traffic cones and traffic cone lanterns automatic placement work or automatic collection work.
System and method for waste removal with an extended slope container
A waste removal system with a trailer for the storage of materials such as waste or rubble, wherein the trailer has a front wall, a rear wall, and plurality of side walls with an extended slope on at least one of the walls to increase the volume capacity therein. The trailer may additionally contain a slanted access door or ramp which alternatively raises and lowers, allowing for ease of ingress and egress of the trailer volume. The waste removal system may additionally include a transport vehicle with a grappler mounted at a distal end of a boom, wherein the grappler grasps waste and deposits the waste into the previously-mentioned trailer for transport to and from a desired location.
Delivery vehicle with unloading arm
The disclosure provides a delivery vehicle. The delivery vehicle may be automated for delivering one or more containers to a delivery location and unloading the one or more containers at that location. The vehicle includes a vehicle body defining a bay therein. The vehicle also includes a plurality of container hangers mounted within the bay and an automated unloading arm movable between a retracted arm position and an extended arm position. The arm is at least partially received in the bay in the retracted arm position and extends from the body in the extended arm position. The unloading arm comprises at least one container carrying member, such as at least one hook, longitudinally movable along the unloading arm for selective longitudinal alignment with each of the plurality of hangers.
MOBILE-TYPE MAINTENANCE SQUARE-SHAPED BIN

ATTACHMENT DEVICE FOR TRACK SUPPORT BEAM OF TRACKED VEHICLE
In one aspect of the present invention is provided an attachment device (100) for attachment of a trailing arm (54a) to a track support beam (22) intended to be connected, via said trailing arm (54a), to a center beam (30, 32) or other structural element situated between two track assemblies (21) of a tracked vehicle (10). The attachment device (100) is secured to the track support beam (22) and configured to attach the trailing arm (54a) to the track support beam (22) via an axis (X2) running above and substantially centrally along an upper side of the track support beam (22), in the longitudinal direction of the track support beam. In this way, a robust, structurally strong, suspension-admitting attachment device that is easy to manufacture and assemble is achieved. In another aspect of the invention is provided a tracked vehicle (10) comprising such an attachment device (100) and in a further aspect of the invention a method of manufacturing a track support beam (22) comprising such an attachment device (100).
System and method for piece-picking or put-away with a mobile manipulation robot
A method and system for piece-picking or piece put-away within a logistics facility. The system includes a central server and at least one mobile manipulation robot. The central server is configured to communicate with the robots to send and receive piece-picking data which includes a unique identification for each piece to be picked, a location within the logistics facility of the pieces to be picked, and a route for the robot to take within the logistics facility. The robots can then autonomously navigate and position themselves within the logistics facility by recognition of landmarks by at least one of a plurality of sensors. The sensors also provide signals related to detection, identification, and location of a piece to be picked or put-away, and processors on the robots analyze the sensor information to generate movements of a unique articulated arm and end effector on the robot to pick or put-away the piece.
Winch mounting kit
A winch mounting kit includes a first mount that may be removably coupled to a stanchion. The first mount may have a winch is removably attached thereto such that the winch is secured on the stanchion. A second mount is provided that may be removably coupled to a horizontal support. The second mount may have the winch being removably attached thereto such that the winch is secured on the horizontal support. A third mount is provided that may be removably coupled to a vertical support. The third mount may have the winch being removably attached thereto such that the winch is secured to the vertical support.
DECEASED ANIMAL MOVING DEVICE
A deceased animal moving device lifts and transports a deceased animal. The device includes a base configured for being moved on a surface. A mast is coupled to and extends upwardly from the base. A winch is coupled to a top of the mast providing a spool and a line selectively extendable from and retractable onto the spool. A shield coupled to the base has a lower edge positioned at a front of the base proximate a bottom of the base. The line is directed from the spool towards the shield for lifting a deceased animal attached to the line upwardly against the shield when the line is retracted.
Vehicle sling bag rail system
An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a vehicle having a cargo area that includes an internal surface. A longitudinally extending bar is located within the cargo area of the vehicle. A bag configured to hang onto and slide along the longitudinally extending bar. A movable rail assembly is attached to the internal surface and includes: a rail moveable between extend and retract positions with respect to the cargo area; a bearing engageable with the rail to assist moving the rail between the extend and retract positions; and a bracket attachable to the bearing to suspend the bearing and the rail in the cargo area and away from the internal surface.
