Portable Studio Hoist |
| Abstract: |
A portable studio hoist which can be positioned and secured in a studio
pipe grid or other structural setting without the need for hard wired

raising and lowering a batten to which the load is secured. The portable
studio hoist allows for easy movement as needed within a studio
environment and attachment where needed with provisions for variably
orientated attachment relative to the pipe grid. A series of portable
studio hoists can be secured around the studio and then controlled
remotely from a single location by way of the use of control hubs, to
which a series of portable studio hoists are connected, and a selector
control station connected to each control hub with a pendant to operate
the hoists.
