Piling Head Threaded Puller Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240010469 titled 'Piling Head Threaded Puller Device
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application for a piling head puller device. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:
- The device consists of an elongated cylindrical rod with a drive head at one end, an upper section with a smooth outer surface, and a lower section with a threaded outer surface.
- The device includes a swiveling lifting element with a pull ring and a bearing washer, which allows the rod to move freely between the drive head and a stop flange.
- The pull ring can be positioned at an angle to avoid obstruction with the rod.
- By rotating the drive head, the threaded outer surface can be embedded into a wooden piling head.
- A hoist can then be used to pull the lifting element, which bears on the drive head, to remove the wooden piling from the ground.
Potential Applications:
- Construction industry: The device can be used to remove wooden pilings from construction sites or to replace damaged pilings.
- Marine industry: The device can be used to remove wooden pilings from docks, piers, or other marine structures.
Problems Solved:
- Difficulties in removing wooden pilings: The device provides a more efficient and effective method for removing wooden pilings from the ground.
- Obstruction with the elongated cylindrical rod: The swiveling lifting element allows the pull ring to be positioned at an angle, avoiding obstruction with the rod.
Benefits:
- Time and cost savings: The device allows for quicker and easier removal of wooden pilings, reducing labor and equipment costs.
- Versatility: The device can be used in various industries and applications, making it a versatile tool for different projects.
- Improved safety: The device minimizes the risk of accidents or injuries associated with manual piling removal methods.
Original Abstract Submitted
a piling head puller device comprises an elongated cylindrical rod having drive head at a proximal end thereof, an upper section having smooth outer surface portion between the drive head and a stop flange, and a lower section having a threaded outer surface portion rom the stop flange to the distal end. the piling head puller device includes a swiveling lifting element having a pull ring and a bearing washer, which defines a glide hole through which the elongated cylindrical rod extends and moves axially freely between the drive head and the stop flange, such that the pull ring is positionable at an angle to avoid obstruction with the elongated cylindrical rod. rotation of the drive head removably embeds the threaded outer surface portion into a wooden piling head. a hoist can pull the lifting element which bears on the drive head to remove the wooden piling from the ground.
