  2. Telescopic cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_cylinder

    Telescopic cylinders must only be used in machinery as a device for providing force and travel. Side forces and moment loads must be minimized. Telescopic cylinders should not be used to stabilize a structural component. [4] Hydraulic telescopic cylinders are often limited to a maximum hydraulic pressure of 2000-3000 psi.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_hook

    A lifting hook with a safety latch. A lifting hook is a device for grabbing and lifting loads by means of a device such as a hoist or crane.A lifting hook is usually equipped with a safety latch to prevent the disengagement of the lifting wire rope sling, chain or rope to which the load is attached.

    Heavy equipment vehicles of various types parked near a highway construction site. Heavy equipment, heavy machinery, earthmovers, construction vehicles, or construction equipment, refers to heavy-duty vehicles specially designed to execute construction tasks, most frequently involving earthwork operations or other large construction tasks.

  5. Block and tackle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_and_tackle

    A block and tackle [1] [2] or only tackle [3] is a system of two or more pulleys with a rope or cable threaded between them, usually used to lift heavy loads.. The pulleys are assembled to form blocks and then blocks are paired so that one is fixed and one moves with the load.

  6. Pile driver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pile_driver

    A pile driver is a heavy-duty tool used to drive piles into soil to build piers, bridges, cofferdams, and other "pole" supported structures, and patterns of pilings as part of permanent deep foundations for buildings or other structures. Pilings may be made of wood, solid steel, or tubular steel (often later filled with concrete), and may be ...

  7. Precast concrete lifting anchor system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precast_concrete_lifting...

    The configuration (size, position and quantity) of this reinforcement should be supplemented to the element reinforcement design to ensure for adequate capacity of the lifting design. Lifting design is influenced by the steel / concrete interaction of the specific anchor selected. Different load cases are considered by the lifting design ...

  8. Telescopic handler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_handler

    A telescopic handler, also called a lull, telehandler, teleporter, reach forklift, or zoom boom, is a machine widely used in agriculture and industry. It is somewhat like a forklift but has a boom ( telescopic cylinder ), making it more a crane than a forklift, with the increased versatility of a single telescopic boom that can extend forwards ...

  9. Telescoping (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescoping_(mechanics)

    Telescoping in mechanics describes the movement of one part sliding out from another, lengthening an object (such as a telescope or the lift arm of an aerial work platform) from its rest state. [1] In modern equipment this can be achieved by a hydraulics , but pulleys are generally used for simpler designs such as extendable ladders and amateur ...
