Abstract: An optical target system is provided for facilitating a vehicle operator's effecting alignment of the respective hitch assembly components of a towing vehicle and a towed vehicle. The system includes first and second targets that are removably positionable in referencing relationship to respective ones of the hitch assembly components and a viewing mirror that is removably positionable on the towed vehicle to provide the vehicle operator positioned in the towing vehicle with a reflected view of the two targets. Each of the two targets includes a longitudinal guidance element that is disposed in alignment with the longitudinal axis of its respective vehicle and a transverse guidance element that is transversely oriented to the respective longitudinal guidance element and located above the hitch assembly component to provide a visual reference to a vertical axis extending through those components.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for cable support and guidance for use on a high elevation outdoor lighting system in which luminaires, for servicing and inspection, are lowered from an operating position at the top of a pole to a position at the base of the pole. A series of rollers are mounted at the pole top to support and guide the passage of a luminaire, elastomer-jacketed power cable which, during raising and lowering of the luminaires, moves in a path that extends vertically through the interior of the pole, over the roller arrangement and vertically to the luminaires on the exterior of the pole.
