TOTE MOVER
A tote mover includes a base and a plurality of wheels supporting the base. A backrest is moveable relative to the base. A hook assembly is moveable relative to the backrest between a first rotational position and a second rotational position.
Pivot power pack and balancing frame (a mini lifter attachment for an electric scooter)
The attachment including a Balancing Stability Frame and a Pivot Power Pack When the Balancing Stability Frame is attached to the Pivot Power Pack, the weight of a load that is being lifted is supported by the Pivot Power Pack wheels. When the Pivot Power Pack and Balancing Stability Frame are connected to a mobility scooter, a weight of the operator and a counterbalance attached to the Balancing Stability Frame is equally distributed across all wheels. This design minimizes the amount of weight supported by the scooter, which helps to preserve the durability of the scooter.
Retrofittable Conversion Tine System for Bucket Loaders
A conversion kit for converting a front-loader bucket for use as a forklift, a bale transporter or similar object mover. Parallel tine assemblies pivoted to a bucket top include tines that normally project forwardly, and cooperating vertical arms linked to the tines. The arms are fastened at their bottoms within protective elbow brackets to which the tines are pinned. The arms support hollow pivot sleeves penetrated by axle members that enable tine assembly rotation. A plurality of box-like receivers forming sockets enable the quick connection and/or disconnection of parts. Lower receiver sockets removably support pivot sleeves secured to quick-connect plugs that are penetrated by axle segments. A pair of rigid, tine stowage brackets may be secured at the rear. After the projecting tines are unpinned from front mounted elbow brackets, the tine assembly may rotate over the bucket to an out-of-the way position.

FORK TINE AND LOGISTICS VEHICLE
A fork tine for preferably automated logistics vehicles include at least a shank, a heel and a blade. Fastening elements for attachment to a logistics vehicle are arranged on the shank. To form a cavity, the fork blade is made from a top layer and a rear layer which are joined, in particular screwed together, by fasteners, in particular screws.
Pallet jack assembly
A pallet jack includes forks which can be removably attached to the base for positioning in a horizontal use position or a vertical storage position. The base includes forwardly open sockets for receiving the forks in the use position and upwardly open sockets for receiving the forks in the storage position. A lock mechanism locks the wheels in the use position. In an alternative embodiment, the base is eliminated, with each fork having an actuator for raising and lowering the fork wheels.

LIFT DEVICE
A lift device includes an inner mast section coupled to a base and an outer mast section, a platform assembly and a guardrail pivotally coupled to the outer mast section, a pulley wheel coupled to a belt, and a locking rail including a plurality of locking slots. A tension arm assembly includes a tension arm coupled to the pulley wheel and including a cutout extending through the tension arm, a tension spring biasing an end of the tension arm, and a locking pin coupled to a locking spring. In response to the belt decoupling from the pulley wheel, the tension spring is configured to bias the tension arm so that the tension arm pivots relative to the locking pin to allow the locking spring to displace the locking pin into one of the locking slots and prevent the outer mast section from moving relative to the inner mast section.
LIFT DEVICE
A lift device includes a base, a mast assembly including a first mast section coupled to the base and a second mast section configured to move vertically relative to the first mast section, a platform assembly pivotally coupled to the second mast section, a guardrail assembly, a pivot assembly pivotally coupling the guardrail assembly to the second mast section, and a link arm pivotally coupled between the pivot assembly and the platform assembly, wherein the link arm links pivotal movement of the platform assembly to pivotal movement of the guardrail assembly so that the platform assembly and the guardrail assembly simultaneously pivot between a working position and a folded position.
LIFT DEVICE
A lift device includes a base, a mast assembly including an inner mast section coupled to the base and an outer mast section, a platform assembly pivotally coupled to the outer mast section, a guardrail assembly pivotally coupled to the outer mast section, a crank assembly including a drive gear that is rotatably coupled to a pulley assembly, and a lift assist motor rotatably coupled to the drive gear. Rotation of the pulley assembly is configured to move the outer mast section relative to the inner mast section. The lift assist motor is configured to selectively apply an assisting torque on the drive gear to assist in raising the outer mast section, the platform assembly, and the guardrail assembly relative to the base.
