A flipper assembly for guiding a spreader to engage a container is provided, the flipper assembly comprising a flipper hingedly mounted to the spreader, said flipper moveable between an open and closed position about said mounting; a motor mounted to the spreader distal from said flipper; a spacing assembly located between the motor and the hinged mounting of the flipper, wherein said spacing assembly is capable of transmitting a torque from the motor to the hinged mounting so as to move the flipper between the closed and open positions.

Spreader with flipper arm drive

An engagement assembly () for mounting to a first head block () so as to engage a Second head block (), the assembly comprising: at least one mounting bracket for mounting the assembly to the first head block (); a plurality of extendable members each connected at a first end to the at least one mounting bracket, a second opposed end of each extendable member being extendable away from the first head block; a plurality of engagement portions (A,B) in communication with the second ends such that extensions of the second ends consequently extends the engagement portions (), the engagement portions adapted to engage engagement brackets () mounted to the second head block (), wherein on engagement the engagement assembly permits selective relative movement in the horizontal plane and free relative vertical movement.

Spreader spacing device

A detection frame for a lifting device is provided. The frame supports a detection system whilst the frame is attached to a lifting device, the lifting device used for lifting freight, the frame comprising attachment brackets for attaching the frame to the lifting device; at least one platform for mounting the detection system to the frame, such that the frame is in spaced relation to the freight whilst mounted to the lifting device.

Detection frame for a lifting device

A head block assembly () comprising a first head block () having a first pair of cable engaging sheaves (); a second head block () having a second pair of cable engaging sheaves (); a separation device () mounted intermediate the first and second head blocks (), for effecting relative transverse movement of said head blocks; wherein the first pair of sheaves () are selectively disengagable from the first head block (), and selectively engagable with the second head block ().

Method and apparatus for effecting relative movement of containers

A trolley assembly () comprising means for supporting a spreader assembly (), said means including cables (), said spreader assembly () adapted to engage at least one freight device; a first carrier portion and a second carrier portion; the supporting means adapted to connect the spreader assembly () to at least one of said carrier portions and; a trolley separation means for selectively varying the relative position of the first and second carrier portions wherein the adjustment of the trolley separation means is such that the cables () are maintained in a substantially vertical orientation.

Trolley and spreader assembly

A lifting device () for goods containers () includes a body member (). Four inner pickup elements () are movably mounted on the body member (). Two first extendable members () are movably mounted on the body member () for movement between a first position in which the first extendable members () are not extended from the body member () and a second position in which the first extendable members () extend from opposite ends of the body member (). Two second extendable members () are provided with one second extendable member () being mounted on each of the first extendable members (). Each second extendable member () is movably mounted on the respective first extendable member () for movement between a first position in which the second extendable member () is not extended from the first extendable member () and a second position in which the second extendable member () is extended from the first extendable member (). Each second extendable member () has two outer pickup elements () mounted adjacent the end furthest from the body member () when the second extendable member () is in the second position. In addition, two of the inner pickup elements () are fixedly coupled to ones of the first extendable members () for movement therewith and the other two inner pickup elements () are fixedly coupled to the other of the first extendable members ().
