The ladder comprises front supporting legs, rear supporting legs, connectors fixedly connected to the front supporting legs, plug pins, and elastic parts, wherein each front supporting leg includes a big tube and a small tube which are able to relatively move in an extension direction. The connectors are formed with vertically-through installation cavities which allow the big tubes to be inserted therein. The big tubes are arranged in the installation cavities and are fixedly connected to the connectors which extend to form connection parts rotationally connected to the rear supporting legs. The small tubes are connected to a tool platform. The plug pins are movably arranged on the connectors or the big tubes.

Abstract: A scaffold transport system is described with a rail system having at least one horizontally running rail section, and at least one carriage module, which is designed to move along the rail system. The carriage module has a coupling section via which the carriage module is captively and movably coupled to the rail system, and a carrier section by means of which the carriage module carries objects during the movement.

Abstract: A tripod assembly includes a plurality of columns disposed in a nested arrangement for relative axial movement in a telescopic fashion along a longitudinal axis of the plurality of columns between a fully-extended position and a collapsed position.
