A walking roof support unit comprising first and second support assemblies isposed adjacent one another for being selectively spragged and released between the floor and the roof of a structure. Each support assembly includes a base, hydraulically operated first and second props extending vertically from the base in spaced parallel relation thereon and a roof beam supported on the props. The first and second support assemblies are coupled together for longitudinally advancing the assemblies step-wise and in sequence parallel to one another. The coupling between the assemblies includes a guide secured to the props of the first support assembly and a guide shoe slidably mounted on the guide for relative movement in the longitudinal direction. The guide has a longitudinal T-shaped slot and the guide shoe includes a longitudinal T-shaped projection slidably engaged in the slot. Two parallel transversely extending pull rods are respectively pivotably connected to the props of the second support assembly and to the guide shoe and an inclined pull rod is pivotably connected to one of the props of the second support assembly and to the guide shoe and extends diagonally between the two pull rods. A hyudraulic cylinder extends longitudinally and connects the guide and guide shoe for relatively displacing the same longitudinally.
A walking roof support unit comprising first and second support means disposed adjacent one another for being selectively spragged and released between the floor and the roof of a structure, each support means including a base, hydraulically operated first and second props extending vertically from said base in spaced parallel relation thereon, and a roof beam supported on said props, and coupling means connecting said first and second support means for longitudinally advancing said first and second support means stepwise and in sequence parallel to one another, said coupling means comprising a guide secured to the props of the first support means, a guide shoe slidably mounted on said guide for relative movement in the longitudinal direction, said guide having a longitudinal T-shaped slot and said guide shoe including a longitudinal T-shaped end slidably engaged in said slot, two parallel, transversely extending pull rods respectively pivotably connected to the props of the second support means and to said guide shoe, an inclined pull rod pivotably connected to one of the props of said second support means and to said guide shoe and extending diagonally between said two pull rods, and a longitudinally extending hydraulic cylinder means connecting said guide and guide shoe for relatively displacing the same longitudinally.
