Abstract: Disclosed is a load lift system and method for lifting load through the load lift system comprising platform arranged to hold load to be lifted, a base frame comprising one or more base bars and a plurality of articulated linkages. Each articulated linkage further comprises two linkage bars connected to the platform with the two linkage bars pivotally connected at center point to facilitate cross-link motion of the two linkage bars connected to the base frame. The load lift system further comprises an elevating mechanism operatively connected to each of the two linkage bars and the base bars. The elevating mechanism is configured to transmit force to the two linkage bars to actuate vertical movement of the platform to lift the load.

Abstract: An adjustable air control apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus is designed for an efficient inflation and deflation of bladders in an article lift. The apparatus integrates blowers, manifolds, air transmission ports, and a control panel featuring a processor for precise airflow regulation. The modular design of the air transmission ports allows customization based on the size of the article lift, enhancing scalability and adaptability. A quick release clamp facilitates an easy attachment and detachment of tubings, streamlining operations. The apparatus is coated with water-resistant materials, ensuring durability and safe operation in moist environments. Additionally, a memory unit stores critical parameters, such as a maximum fluid capacity of bladders, enabling optimal performance and system monitoring. The apparatus offers a compact, reliable, and efficient solution for air management in inflatable systems.

Abstract: A floating boat lift is disclosed. The floating boat lift comprises a plurality of tanks, wherein each of the plurality of tanks comprises at least one indentation. Further, the floating boat lift comprises a top frame positioned and secured to the top surface of each of the plurality of tanks through one or more support brackets. The support brackets establish a connection with the top frame and the indentation of the respective tanks to create a clamping mechanism to avoid piercing the respective tanks and to maintain the structural integrity of each tank. Tanks are easily removed or replaced for maintenance purposes and may be added or removed to modify the size of the floating boat lift.

Abstract: A cleat (10) for securing a boat (B) to a dock (D) includes a brace (12) having a face (14) contoured to fit against a dock piling (P) and extend around an outer surface (ES) of the piling when in place. An end (18a) of an adjustable strap (16) attaches to one end (20a) of the brace with an opposite, free end of the strap, fitting about the other end (20b) of the brace. An end portion (22) of this free end, when fitted about the other end of the brace, overlaps and a fastener (24) secures these overlapping portions together to secure the brace to the piling. An anchor (26) projects from a face (28) of the brace, and an anchor rope (30) attached to the boat is secured to the anchor, once the brace is secured to the piling, to secure the boat to the dock.
