Abstract
A rotating container dumper includes a bin assembly having at least one opening configured to receive a container, a frame that is configured to receive the bin assembly, and a linkage system that is operably coupled to the frame and the bin assembly. The linkage system is configured to rotate the bin assembly between a home position and a deployed position. In the home position, the bin assembly is disposed within the frame and a first opening of the at least one opening is positioned at a top of the bin assembly. In the deployed position, the bin assembly is disposed outside of the frame and the first opening of the at least one opening is positioned at a bottom of the bin assembly.

Abstract
A scissor lift with a height sensor system includes a scissors assembly including at least one scissor leg configured to lower and raise a platform, an angle sensor configured to sense the angular position of a pivot pin about which the scissor leg pivots, and a processor configured to calculate a height of the platform from the angular position sensed by the angle sensor. The processor may also be configured to control the lift actuator in response to the height of the platform calculated from the angular position sensed by the angular sensor. The angle sensor may be a magnetic angle sensor configured to sense the angle of a magnetic angular marker attached to the pivot pin.

Abstract
A scissor lift includes a base, a platform, a plurality of pivotally connected scissor links, a support column, and a locking actuator. The platform has a fixed horizontal orientation and being movable between a first elevation and a second elevation. The scissor links are arranged in a crisscross pattern and operatively connecting the base and the platform. The lift actuator is pivotally attached to at least one of the scissor links to selectively raise and lower the platform along a lift path. The support column extends alongside the lift path and positioned adjacent to the platform. The locking actuator is fixed to an underside of the platform and includes a piston member extendable toward the support column to operatively connect the platform with the support column when the platform is raised at the second elevation so that the platform is supported by the support column in the fixed horizontal orientation.
