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.

A tire lifter is provided having a horizontal frame in a vertical support, the horizontal frame providing for wheel movement of the tire lifter. A drive lift mechanism is positioned within the vertical upright of the frame and includes a screw drive that is used to raise and lower a pair of support arms which cradle a tire or a tire and wheel combination. Further, the support arms which cradle the tire can also be adjusted in a forward and rearward direction to allow for easier placement of a tire relative to an automobile.

A unit for handling an aircraft turbojet engine includes a frame, a front cradle and a rear cradle designed for supporting the turbojet engine, and a plurality of electric actuators. The cradles include devices for securing the turbojet engine. The plurality of electric actuators includes three electric actuators, where a first one and second one are arranged opposite each other, on either side of a longitudinal axis of the frame, connected to the front cradle and arranged for moving same in vertical translation, and where a third actuator is connected to the rear cradle and arranged for moving the same in vertical translation. The handling unit further includes a device for rotary driving of the front cradle about a longitudinal axis of the turbojet engine.

The present application relates to a transport for transporting a trailer stand. The transport for a trailer stand may be a portable trailer stand and may comprise one or more auxiliary trailer stands. The portable trailer stand may include a pedestal having a top for engaging and supporting the underside of the nose portion of a trailer, a bottom for engaging the ground, wheel means mounted on the pedestal for moving the stand along the ground to and from a position under the nose portion of a trailer, means for adjusting the height of said pedestal, and a member for engaging and securing the auxiliary trailer stand to the portable trailer stand.

A tire and wheel lift assembly for facilitating the removal and installation of wheel/tire assemblies for vehicles includes a rolling frame member that is generally U-shaped, having a center support member and a pair of parallel side support members. A first roller is disposed on a first side support member, and a second roller is attached to a slidable support member so that the rollers are positioned in parallel relation at the same height. The rollers are used to support a wheel/tire assembly, and the slidable support member may slide along the center support member. An adjustment mechanism controls the slidable support member, which can either raise or lower the height of the wheel/tire assembly by sliding the slidable member toward or away from the first roller.

A transportation arrangement for transportation of an object on a surface comprises at least one transportation unit. The transportation unit comprises a housing comprising a vertical front surface, two arms movably connected to the housing at each side of the vertical front surface, at least one rolling element arranged at a lower portion of the housing, and a power source connected to the rolling elements and the movable arms. The rolling element are configured to roll in any horizontal direction on the surface.

Automated jackstand systems and methods deploy a jackstand to support a front end of a trailer parked at an automated loading dock. The jackstand prevents collapse of the trailer's landing gear and prevents upending of the trailer during loading and unloading. Advantageously, by deploying the jackstand automatically, presence of personnel in the yard where tractors and trailers are moving is not required.

A carrying device (1) for the frontal removal of a roll body from a roll frame, comprising a main frame (2) and a receiving section (3) for the roll body. The receiving section (3) can be transferred from an introduction position (E) into a supporting position (S). The receiving section (3) has a profile which at least partially encloses the roll body in the supporting position (S), and the carrying device (1) can be pushed in below the roll body with the receiving section (3) in the introduction position (E), and the roll body is carried with the receiving section (3) in the supporting position (S).

A floor service jack includes a battery and a control panel provided at a distal end of a handle of the jack for electro-mechanically or hydraulically controlling a lift arm to raise and lower a vehicle for servicing without exposure to an undercarriage of the vehicle to replace the battery or to operate the control panel.

A carrying mobile robot includes a frame, a suspension system disposed at the bottom of the frame, and a lifting mechanism disposed on the frame. The suspension system includes two suspension mechanisms disposed on the left and right sides, each of which includes a supporting beam, a driving wheel, a connecting member and a first driven wheel. The first driven wheel and the driving wheel respectively support the front and rear ends of the supporting beam, and the connecting member is connected to the supporting beam and located between the driving wheel and the first driven wheels. The lifting mechanism includes a plurality of lifting members, a first driving system for driving the lifting member and a transmission system for transmitting the driving force of the first drive system to the lifting members.
