==ATTACHMENT MEMBERS FOR A SLINGBAR COMPONENT OF A LIFT SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240041682 titled 'ATTACHMENT MEMBERS FOR A SLINGBAR COMPONENT OF A LIFT SYSTEM

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a slingbar that includes a sling attachment member with a frame and a hook. The hook, base, and opening define an interior of the attachment member. A closure element with outboard and inboard gates is hinged to the hook terminus and the base, respectively.

* The slingbar includes a frame with a base and a hook.
* The hook and the top end of the base create an opening.
* The attachment member has an interior bounded by the hook, base, and opening.
* The closure element consists of outboard and inboard gates.
* The gates have a default state where they only partially extend across the opening.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Slingbars can be used in various industries such as construction, manufacturing, and logistics.
* They can be utilized for lifting and transporting heavy objects or materials.
* Slingbars can be integrated into machinery or equipment for improved handling capabilities.

Problems solved by this technology:

* The sling attachment member provides a secure and reliable connection point for slings or lifting devices.
* The closure element ensures that the attachment member remains closed during lifting operations, preventing accidental disengagement.
* The gates' default state allows for easy attachment and detachment of slings or lifting devices.

Benefits of this technology:

* Enhanced safety during lifting operations due to the secure attachment provided by the slingbar.
* Improved efficiency and productivity in handling heavy objects or materials.
* Versatility in application across different industries and equipment.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

a slingbar includes a sling attachment member. the sling attachment member includes a frame including a base having a top end and a bottom end, and a hook extending from the bottom end to a hook terminus. the hook terminus and the top end of the base define an opening. the hook, base, and opening bound an interior of the attachment member. a closure element includes an outboard gate hinged to the hook terminus and an inboard gate hinged to the base. the gates have a default state in which each gate extends laterally only part way across the opening.
