Abstract: The invention provides moveable supports for machine parts such as automotive body components during repair, painting, assembly, alignment, and other processes. The provision of multiple, spaced frame and support members of suitable length, spacing, and orientation, enables workers to access all surfaces of supported components; and support members having angled flange portions enable access to portions of supported components engaged by the support members. Supports according to the invention can be employed as jigs to support parts during, for example, assembly, disassembly, and/or alignment of components. The provision of wheels, brackets, lugs, hooks, and other devices enable easy and safe transportation for support devices and supported components.

Abstract: A transporter for elongated compressed gas cylinders comprising an elongated load bearing beam supported in an upright inclining position by a pair of rotatably attached wheels and a supplemental support, the support also mounting a wheel which pivots about a vertical axis to facilitate a steering function. The transporter further having hook device for engaging a hook receiving aperture on a compressed gas cylinder, the hook device movably attached to the beam via a device for elevating and lowering the hook relative to the beam. Handle devices attached to the transporter provide for manual actuation of the elevating and lowering device as well as for tilting motion and movement of the transporter. The beam having a cylinder support yoke fixedly attached for cradling a compressed gas cylinder carried by the transporter, the yoke having a strap connectably mounted which encircles and secures a compressed gas cylinder.
