  • Publication number: 20220354717
    Abstract: A portable rotation assist device is configured to reorient mobility impaired patients when they are moving from one location to another such as from a vehicle seat to a wheelchair. The rotation device is placed on the floor or ground between the two positions. The patient stands or can be assisted to stand on the platform on top of the device. The platform is then rotated to a second position to transfer the patient. Rotational movement and torque is provided by an onboard battery and compact motor acting through gears incorporated into the rotating platform. Choice of rotation direction and actuation of start and stop is provided by a wireless remote control. Remote control buttons are configured so they must be held down during rotation and rotation stops upon button release.

  • Patent number: 10759321
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for an extendable logging trailer constructed of left and right main I-beam members having left and right male telescoping beams moving on rollers on the bottom inner flange of the main I-beam members. The male telescoping beams allow the trailer to be retractable or extendable so that it can assist in offloading the logs/pipes from the logging trailer. In operation, a front bolster and push rack are moved in unison by a first hydraulic cylinder toward the rear of the trailer at the same time as a rear bolster is moved by a second hydraulic cylinder toward the front of the trailer thereby causing the length of the trailer to shorten.
