Means being further provided for tensioning the tension element (6) and means (7) for connecting the tension element (6) to the supporting frame (2) adapted to transmit at least partially the tension forces of the tension element (6) to the supporting frame (2) along a direction that has at least one component substantially perpendicular to the resting surface (4).

Abstract: A system including a collapsible, recyclable, cost-effective module for transporting, loading and unloading slabs or tiles. The module comprises two lateral U-shaped members with each U-shaped member defining a top portion, bottom portion, proximal arm and distal arm. The member bottom portions are attached to one another and corresponding releasable connectors close each U-shaped member. The module is attached to a stabilizing base which in turn is secured to a transport ship or vehicle. Multiple modules are interconnected for the purpose of stabilization.

Abstract: A construction template mounted on a mobile platform. The template is useful in the assembly of racks made for storing barrels, typically barrels of distilled spirits in a warehouse. Beams that will be joined to form a rack are placed alongside upright positioning elements of the construction template. Beams are placed horizontally held by tabs on the construction template. Then the upright and horizontal beams are joined to form a rack assembly that is lifted and moved off the platform.

Abstract: Apparatus for supporting a panel of plywood or sheetrock having a frame with left and right vertical tubes, a bottom horizontal tube attached to the sides and at the bottom ends of the vertical tubes, and a top horizontal tube attached to a side of the left and right vertical tubes and at their top ends. The bottom tube has a first cutout which is sized to receive a stud; and a clip having a second cutout with a width which is sized to receive a stud is attached to the top tube. The distance between the outside surfaces of the left and right vertical tubes is sized to fit between studs located on sixteen inch centers and the ends of the top and bottom horizontal tubes extend beyond the outside edges of the left and right vertical tubes to prevent the frame, when placed between two studs, from falling in between the studs.

Abstract: A panel receiving device enables anti-electrostatic ions to contact surfaces of panels. The panel receiving device includes at least three panel guides arranged at inner sides within an exterior case. Each panel guide includes support plates for supporting and securing the panels, wherein the support plates contact a minimal area of each of the panels.

Abstract: An OSHA compliant container for scaffold frames and cross braces includes a floor bordered by recessed channels into which legs of scaffold frames may be placed. A central upright frame includes rest surfaces against which the upper ends of the first scaffold frame placed into the container may rest. A stop element in each channel prevents the lower ends of the scaffold legs from being placed against the upright frame. Upright posts at the corners of the base of the container support side rails which provide fall protection for a worker inside the container. Lanyard rings attached to the upright posts provide connection points for safety harness and for a gate to provide additional fall protection for a worker within the container. Underlying fork tubes extending longitudinally as well as transversely allow the container to be lifted by a fork lift from either end and either side.

Abstract: A rack, which is configured to selectively maintain at least one fork of a lift truck, includes a back, a front opposite the back, a supporting member extending between the back and the front of the rack, and a wedge member. The wedge member extends between the back and the front of the rack such that the wedge member is positioned substantially nearer the supporting member at the back of the rack than at the front of the rack. The supporting member and the wedge member collectively define a storage space for receiving the at least one fork. Fork rack systems and methods for removing, replacing, and/or storing forks provide additional advantages.

Abstract: A cart is described and claimed. The cart is used for moving an delivering large planar objects to an object receiving table having a substantially flat, horizontal surface. The cart has a base and a rack removably mounted atop the base. The base includes a pivot structure for pivotally fixing the base at a predetermined location, and at least one (preferably three) wheeld base mechanisms arranged to permit the base structure to pivot about that pivot structure into and out of a delivery position in which the rack bottom is located substantially coplanar with and adjacent to the top of the object receiving table.

Abstract: A movable fixture onto which core laminates may be stacked in a manner such that the laminates are secure and easily accessible, and the fixture may be used to transport the laminates. The fixture consists of, among other things, a stacking table that has at least one pivot arm extending therefrom and a base plate that has at least one appendage extending therefrom. The pivot arm is movably and removably attached to the appendage in order to permit the stacking table to move between a transporting position and an assembling position.

Abstract: A carrying apparatus is disclosed to provide for secure transportation of construction materials, such as a backsplash, between sidewalls.

Abstract: Supports used in pairs for storing and handling large sheets of heavy materials such as granite, stone and glass. Each support comprises a vertical, steel A-frame welded to a horizontal steel I-beam. Spaced-apart steel post holders are welded to the web of the I-beam. Removable vertical steel posts are inserted into some or all of the post holders to create “slots” for holding and supporting the sheets of material. Inserts can be placed in cavities parallel to the flanges of the I-beam to prevent the edges of the sheets of material from hitting the I-beam. Protective coatings can be attached or applied to the surfaces of the A-frame, the posts and the I-beam in order to protect the sheets of material. When the supports are used, sheets of material can be moved away from each other, utilizing the A-frame and posts, when a particular sheet is selected for removal.

Abstract: A restraining cable and rack system comprises material-bay dividers with cable restraints that can be laced-through, end-attached, and adjusted to a variety of heights on vertical bars. Long sticks or sheets of material are stood on-end inside the bays for retail display. The restraining cables are positioned to prevent the retail material from falling out of the bays.

Abstract: An adjustable rack for a stone slab or plate glass has a base with adjustable poles positioned on the base, with the base also having a durable wood strip secured therein in order to support the stone slab thereon. Two adjustable racks are preferred for at least one stone slab. Three adjustable racks are preferred for at least one sheet of plate glass.

Abstract: A portable construction material stand is provided with a flanged support portion and a base portion. The portable construction material stand is adapted for use with a single support portion unattached to another support portion and does not use any cross-supports. The portable construction material stand may be used in conjunction with two or more portable material stands.

Abstract: An apparatus for carrying a workpiece adjacent an exterior surface of a vehicle, provides a stationary resting surface mounted on an exterior surface of the vehicle and one or more movable clamping bars positioned adjacent to the resting surface. A driving screw moves the clamping bar in a scissors type motion, alternately toward the resting surface, so as to clamp the workpiece, and away from the resting surface so as to release the workpiece, whereby the workpiece may be safely transported by the vehicle. The apparatus may be mounted onto a panel truck, normally adjacent to one or both side panels, or may be mounted on the sides of a pick-up type truck.

Abstract: A locking product display system has structures for supporting planar rigid objects in a display arrangement, and where at least some of the objects are locked into the display and cannot be removed. In one embodiment, upper and lower channels engage edges of the displayed article and side panels retain the article within the channels. In another embodiment end edges of a planar displayed object are supported by fixed wall support devices and capture within a channel formed by a hinge-mounted and fastener-secured member of the support device. In each embodiment, the product support structure hold one item in a locked position, and a second item in a removable position.
