A lift carrier includes: a bogie frame that is inserted under a transport target vehicle; an elevating mechanism that raises and lowers the bogie frame with each of a plurality of tires supported with arms to raise and lower a vehicle; a bogie body that is able to move the bogie frame to any location. The bogie frame includes a main frame and a rear end frame joined to the main frame. The rear end frame is formed in a rectangular shape by a pair of side members, a first cross member, and a second cross member. The rear end frame includes a first reinforcing member projecting from the first cross member toward a front end side and a second reinforcing member projecting from the first cross member toward a rear end side. The first reinforcing member is joined to a part of the main frame.

A carrier body of a lift carrier includes: a pair of wheel support mechanisms that supports a first wheel of a vehicle to be transported; a frame-shaped structure connected to the wheel support mechanisms; and one or more lifting units that lift or lower the pair of wheel support mechanisms. The frame-shaped structure includes a frame portion and an upper plate and is open on a lower side of the carrier body. Each of the lifting units includes a wheel support and an air spring. The air spring is interposed between the wheel support and an upper plate. As the air spring expands, the wheel support is rotated about one end of the wheel support rotatably supported by the frame portion, and is deployed out of the frame-shaped structure.

A device for lifting and stabilizing loads which can be stabilized via two crossing, pivotably articulated telescopic struts that are interconnected in a synchronized manner so as to counter undesirable length variations as a result of forces acting in the cross-beam longitudinal direction, wherein connection of the telescopic struts is established via five traction parts, wherein one first traction part in the internal tube of each telescopic strut is mounted at both ends via a respective inner disk and outer disk, where a second traction part is mounted on two rotatable disks horizontally between the telescopic struts, where disks of the respective first and second traction parts each situated on one side are kinetically interconnected to transmit rotational movements between both disks, and where one further traction part is fastened in external tube, the further form-fitting traction part being kinetically connected to the inner disk of the first traction part.

A device for lifting a load includes: a column with a carriage sliding along the column; a structure, which is associated with the carriage, for supporting the load to be lifted; and an actuator that moves the carriage causing the load supporting structure to rise and/or descend. The supporting structure of the load includes: a single supporting arm; a longitudinal arm, having first and second ends, which is associated with the supporting arm, at the other end of the supporting arm, so as to be rotatable with respect to the supporting arm, the longitudinal arm being telescopic at one or both ends; and arms provided at one or both ends of the longitudinal arm and which develop in a transverse, or angled, direction with respect to the longitudinal arm, the arms being provided and/or configured to be engaged by members to support and/or sustain the load to be lifted.

A vehicle lift includes a vehicle support member, a cylinder, and a controller. A linear transducer—such as a string potentiometer—is (preferably removably) positioned inside the cylinder. The transducer detects the position of the cylinder and sends a corresponding signal to a controller that controls the height of the support member in response to the signal. The cylinder acts on the vehicle support member through a scissor mechanism, parallelogram linkage, or straight vertical hydraulic lifting.

Disclosed herein is a motorized motorcycle stand. The motorized stand includes a lifting platform. The motorized stand further includes an electric motor. The motorized stand further includes a lift column. The motorized stand further includes at least one stabilizing column. The motorized stand further includes a motor housing. The electric motor is oriented at an acute angle with respect to a plane defined by said lift column and stabilizing column.

A parking robot includes a lifting rail, a wheel clamp, and a lift motor. The wheel clamp is disposed on the lifting rail and is moveable from a first position to a second position along the lifting rail. The lift motor is operatively connected to the lifting rail and moves the wheel clamp from the first position to the second position.

An integrated lift and dolly is presented which includes a lift mechanism for elevating a vehicle while simultaneously positioning wheels underneath to enable moving the vehicle as the vehicle's wheels are elevated off the ground. The lift assembly can further elevate the supporting frame to remove weight from the wheels of the lift assembly to allow long term storage without relying on the wheels to support the weight of the vehicle. This integrated lift and dolly lifts and supports the vehicle for storage and also facilitates easier service, inspection and cleaning.

The invention relates to a pivot locking device of two bearing elements (102, 103) oriented towards a common axis, in which one or both bearing elements (102, 103) are pivotable about a common pivot axis (22), with a first bearing element (102), which comprises a perforation (104), with a second bearing element (103), which comprises a perforation (106), wherein the first and second bearing elements (102, 103) are oriented in alignment to one another with the perforations (104, 106), with a chamber (124) provided on the first bearing element (102), which chamber comprises a circulatory path for circulatory elements (129) and is open to the second bearing element (103) and, by a connecting surface (118) facing to the chamber (124), is closed on the second bearing element (103), with a plurality of circulatory elements (129) arranged in the chamber (124), with an catch (121) arrangeable on the second bearing element (103), which catch engages into the circulating chamber (124) and is positioned between circulatory elements (129) and, in a pivot movement of the second bearing element (103) to the first bearing element (102), displaces the circulatory elements (129) in the chamber (124) along the circulatory path, and with a locking element (107) arranged on the first bearing element (102), which locking element, in an unlocking position (109), unblocks the circulatory path for the circulatory elements (129) in the chamber (124) and, in a locking position (108) of the locking element (107), blocks a displacement movement of the circulatory elements (129) along the circulatory path of the chamber (124).
