ABSTRACT:
A load is lifted and moved by a pin-turning transporter-and-lift-member combination. The transporter has a body, and wheels for permitting the body to move along a surface. The transporter body includes a lifting pin and a weight supporting plate fixed relative to the lifting pin, together with an assembly for turning the lifting pin around an axis parallel to the surface and perpendicular to the pin so that the pin and the pin-turning axis lie in a common geometric plane for substantial mechanical advantage. The lift member has an elongated section for slidable attachment to the load and further has a receptacle portion for pivotably and slidably receiving the lifting pin perpendicular to the elongated section. The receptacle also includes a second weight supporting plate to carry the load pivotably on the weight supporting plate of the transporter body.
In a method of use, (A) the lifting member is slidably attached to the load, as by insertion into or onto the load, (B) the transporter is oriented so that the pin-turning axis is parallel to the elongated section of the lift member, (C) the transporter is used to insert the pin into the lift member receptacle, (D) turn the pin to lift the load clear of the surface, and (E) transport the load over the surface.
A variety of selectable-height receptacles, motorized and manual transporter arrangements and other variations and applications are described.
