A Sidelifter is a specialised truck or semi-trailer used to hoist and transport ISO standard containers over longer distances.

The sidelifter loads and unloads containers via a pair of hydraulic powered cranes mounted at each end of the vehicle chassis. the cranes are designed to lift containers from the ground, from other vehicles including rolling stock and directly from stacks on docks or aboard container ships. A standard sidelifter is also able to stack two containers.

History

The sidelifter was invented during the 1960s by Klaus Transport-systeme GmbH of Germany, and further developed by HammarMaskin in Sweden and Steelbro in New Zealand. It has since become a commonly used vehicle in intermodal facilities worldwide. The principal alternative to the costly machinery of the sidelifter is the use of swap body containers, which are too light to be stacked but can be unloaded from a truck by means of foldable legs.

Design

Sidelifters generally have the following attributes:

• Lifting cranes (sometimes called Crane Modules). The hydraulically powered cranes lift the container (from the ground, loading dock, another vehicle, train wagon or from the top of another container placed on the ground or other location) on and off the chassis. These cranes are placed on top of the sidelifter chassis and they are normally able to travel along the chassis being shifted by hydraulic cylinders or hydraulic motors in order to load varying container lengths.
• A power source. While typically the cranes are powered by a trailer mounted internal-combustion diesel engine engine, the cranes are sometimes powered via a PTO from the truck tractor.
• Stabilizing legs. These are fitted with hydraulic legs which are necessary to permit the lifting of up to 40 tonne loads without rolling the vehicle. These may be adjustable to assist operation on unlevel ground and facilitate greater safety margins and load limits when stacking containers.
• Chains, which are attached from the cranes to the corner castings at the base of the container(s) during lifting operations. There is a special linking device that when placed between two 20ft containers allows the user to lock two 20’ (1 TEU) containers together allowing the containerlifter to lift them as if they were a 40’ container.
• The tractor/cab, which pulls the trailer, and in some cases supplies power to the PTO.This tractor/cab always supplies the compressed air for the wheels’ brake of the sidelifter.
• The chassis, which bears the weight of the container when loaded, as well as supports the cranes.
• The remote control, a device with joysticks & buttons typically attached via a lead or radio signal and that allows the operator to walk around the container and view the unit from various angles during operation.

Sidelifter machines are designed to lift up to a maximum of 40 tonnes though smaller machines exist.

In addition to controlling the raising and lowering of the cranes, the operator can sometimes tilt the chassis using the stabilising legs which provides a limited ability to operate on non-level ground.

Some sidelifters have a telescopic chassis, sometimes called trombone chassis, allowing the unit to expand and contract in order to accommodate 20′, 40′ or even 45′ containers. These Trombone units are specially suited for small secondary roads where cornering is quite difficult with 40 ft trailers.

Safety

A sidelifter is rated for loads at a specified maximum weight and length. This information is located on a nameplate provided by the manufacturer, and loads must not exceed these specifications. Sidelifter units have been known to overturn, especially when lifting heavy weights or operating on uneven ground.

Dautel is a German company, headquartered in Leingarten, manufacturing hydraulic tail lifts and dumpers for trucks. It is one of the several German companies returning production back to Germany, due to quality concerns.

History

The blacksmith Ernst Dautel did fitting work for horse driven wagons. His son, Emil Dautel learned the trade from him and founded the manufacturing company in 1933. The company profited heavily by the demand in construction work after the WWII.

A price control is a law that regulates the price of a good, service, salary, rent, interest rate, or any other kind of price.

There are two types of price control:

• A price ceiling sets the maximum price that can be charged;
• A price floor sets the minimum price that can be charged.

Disambiguation pages with links

This editor repairs links to disambi­guation pages - you can help!

Disambiguation pages exist to clarify confusion where two or more similarly named articles exist; for example, if two famous people have the same name. Ideally, Wikipedia articles should not link to disambiguation pages (with rare exceptions where the ambiguity of a term is being discussed); instead links should go directly to the appropriate article.

CorHomo

CorHomo v. 1.3.3 (patched by Jjvaca) in Linux (under GNOME)

CorHomo is a semiautomatic disambiguation tool for Windows and Linux created by Escaladix from the French Wikipedia.

The normal way to fix the disambiguation pages, is by going to one (e.g. Spanish), clicking “What links here” and fixing one by one the list of articles. This manual way of fixing is very slow, and it can be done easier and faster. This program can select the article automatically and the only thing we need is to click in the word we want to, click validate and then send.

Program specifications

The program is simple to use, requiring only the following steps:

• Enter your username and password.
• Enter the word you want to fix and click “Start research”.
• Select an article from the list to your left.
• Click in the link you think best fit.
• Click “validate” and then “send”

Troubleshooting

As of version 1.3.3:

• CorHomo appears to only recognise disambiguation pages containing the template {{disambig}}. Other disambiguation page templates, including the functionally equivalent {{disambiguation}}, are not recognised. If CorHomo does not recognise a disambiguation page (and the title is spelled correctly), try adding {{disambig}} to the page, even temporarily.

• CorHomo occasionally replaces whole pages (for example: ) without the user’s knowledge. It is important that once having pressed ’send’ to fix your link, you must wait for the program to reload the disambiguation page: this is likely to eliminate the error occurring. Related discussion here.

Wikipedia cleaner is another tool available for fixing links to disambiguation pages. It’s a Java program that should be able to run on most platforms, provided a JVM has been setup first (Java 5 is required, Java 6 is recommended).
