Abstract: A roller system including a top roller, a middle roller, a split lower roller and a split workbench roller configured for a pump jack arranged for travelling up and down a pole, wherein the top roller includes flanges at both ends of the roller; wherein the split lower roller includes a pair of facing lower rollers, each of the pair of facing lower rollers having an outward tapered flange; and wherein the split workbench roller includes a pair of facing workbench rollers, each of the pair of facing workbench rollers having an outward tapered flange.
Abstract: A support member is provided for joining scaffolding plank segments comprising a first support surface for supporting a first scaffolding plank segment and a second support surface parallel to the first support surface for supporting a second scaffolding plank segment. A joining member joins the first and second plank segments, a first retainer is provided for retaining the first scaffolding plank segment on the first support surface and a second retainer for retaining the second scaffolding plank segment on the second support surface. A system is further provided comprising at least two scaffolding plank segments and a bracket, such as that described above, for supporting an end of each of the segments.
Abstract: A detachable support for a workpiece, and in particular a bending brake, includes a workpiece support and a clamp pivotally attached to the workpiece support. The clamp further comprises a lever that pivots about a pivot axis relative to the workpiece support between an unclamped position and a clamped position, the clamp being biased toward the clamped position. In operation, a user pivots the clamp into an unclamped position, places the detachable support structure into positional engagement with the workpiece, and then releases the clamp into clamping engagement with the workpiece.
Abstract: A bending brake for sheet material includes frames; an upper jaw and a lower jaw that cooperate to hold the sheet material a bending surface pivotally connected to the lower jaw to bend the sheet material against an anvil of the upper jaw; an interlocking unit connected to the frame and having a cam surface which has having a locking position; and an elongated pipe assembly for rotation by a user. The elongated body bears against the cam surface and rests in the locking position to clamp the sheet material with reduced freedom of play.
