Abstract: A lift cart includes a lift table that moves between a raised position and a lowest position and a braking device attached to the lift cart. A braking device includes an actuator, a linkage bar, and a first brake assembly. The linkage bar connects to the actuator. The linkage bar translates in a first direction upon activation of the actuator. The first brake assembly connects to the linkage bar. The first brake assembly moves from a deployed state to a retracted state as the linkage bar translates in the first direction.

Abstract: A biasing system for use with a fastener is disclosed. The biasing system can include a sleeve configured to be disposed about a shank of a fastener and operable to form at least a portion of a first load path between the fastener and a component coupled to the fastener to preload the fastener through the sleeve. The biasing system can also include a spring configured to be associated with the sleeve and operable to form at least a portion of a second load path parallel to the first load path between the fastener and the component to facilitate biasing the fastener away from the component.

Abstract: A fastener dispenser tool for kitting and dispensing a plurality of fasteners comprises a retention section, a presentation section extending from the retention section, and a retention slot extending along the retention section and the presentation section. The retention slot is operable to retain the plurality of fasteners for dispensing therefore. A presentation slot extends along the presentation section and is sized to receive a tool bit engageable with a lead fastener. The retention slot and presentation slot are sized, such that the plurality of fasteners are each slidable through the retention slot along the presentation section to facilitate dispensing of the lead fastener from the presentation section. The presentation section can be formed at a curve relative to the retention section, to provide clearance of retained fasteners from hardware being fastened by the lead fastener. Associated systems and methods are provided.
