  • Patent number: 11117741
    Abstract: An object handling device handles a first object and a second object. A lower support beam, a first side frame and a second side frame define a lower object holding channel for supporting the first object. A first upper support beam and a second upper support beam define an upper object holding channel. An object lift vertically lifts the first object from the lower object holding channel to the upper object holding channel. A beam lift pivots the lower support beam and the first object. A lower hoist positions a second object within the lower object holding channel. A first telescoping support beam and a second telescoping support beam define an angled object displacement channel. An upper hoist links with the first object for displacing the first object along the angled object displacement channel.

  • Patent number: 10850657
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for handling a first dumpster and a second dumpster. The method comprises the steps of lifting the first dumpster from a lower dumpster holding channel to an upper dumpster holding channel. The lower dumpster holding channel, the upper dumpster holding channel and the first dumpster are pivoted relative to a rear chassis. The second dumpster is positioned into the lower dumpster holding channel. An angled dumpster displacement channel is extended from the rear chassis. The first dumpster is lowered from the upper dumpster holding channel and along the angled dumpster displacement channel. The lower dumpster holding channel, the upper dumpster holding channel and the second dumpster are pivoted relative to the rear chassis.

  • Patent number: 4498880
    Abstract: Hurlable, water rescue aid 10 comprising an initially collapsed, gas-inflatable buoyancy element 12, a ball-shaped bracket 24 supporting the buoyancy element in collapsed condition generally within the locus of the bracket, a compressed gas supply 32 within the bracket for inflating said element, a penetrating tip 40, adapted to release the gas supply from the cylinder in advance of hurling the aid toward a person to be rescued, and passageways 52 metering flow of released gas from the supply into the buoyancy element, whereby the buoyancy element is substantially collapsed at the commencement of flight but substantially inflated at the termination of flight for use by the person.
