Abstract
A lift table includes a base member, an air powered hydraulic powerpack assembly mounted to the base member, a tabletop, a lift assembly capable of actuated the tabletop relative to the base member, a handle extending upward from the base member, and an air supply docking station. The lift assembly includes a hydraulic cylinder assembly actuated by the air powered hydraulic powerpack. The handle includes a top portion of the handle elevated above the air-powered hydraulic powerpack. The air supply docking station is fixed to the top portion of the handle and is in fluid communication with the air-powered hydraulic powerpack assembly.
Claims17
A lift table, comprising:
- (a) a base member;
- (b) a tabletop assembly, wherein the tabletop assembly comprises a table base and an adjustable top, wherein the adjustable top is configured to pivot about a pivot axis relative to the table base such that the adjustable top is configured to define a plurality of angles relative to the table base;
- (c) a lift assembly configured to adjust the height of the tabletop assembly relative to the base member between a lowered configuration and a raised configuration;
- and
- (d) a table tilt assembly configured to drive the pivoting of the adjustable top relative to the table base between the plurality of angles,
- wherein the table tilt assembly comprises a jack screw having an engagement fitting configured to be engaged by a torque input tool in order to adjust the tilt of the tabletop,
- wherein the table tilt assembly further comprises a threaded nut fixed against movement relative to the table base,
- wherein the jack screw is engaged with the threaded nut,
- wherein the table tilt assembly further comprises a pair of flanges fixed to the table base, and
- wherein the threaded nut is interposed between the pair of flanges.
