Bore seal telescopic hoist
A bore seal telescopic hoist is formed of a series of telescopically arranged tubular sections each having a circumferential reservoir. A circumferential wiper is lodged in the reservoir and is used to collect debris or dirt which may be present on the inner wall of an adjacent tubular section.
1. A telescopic hoist comprising:
a series of telescopically arranged tubular sections, each section having a first end and an opposite end; each said first end having an annular head;
sealing means mounted on at least one of said annular heads;
reservoir means on at least one of said first ends located circumferentially adjacent said sealing means; said reservoir means defining a scraper receiving section and a debris receiving area disposed adjacent to said scraper receiving section; and
scraper means disposed in said scraper receiving section of said reservoir means contacting an adjacent inner wall of an adjacent tubular section whereby debris scraped and collected by said scraper means from said inner wall are deposited in said debris receiving area of said reservoir means.
2. A telescopic hoist comprising:
a cylindrical housing;
a series of actuatable tubular sections telescopically received in said housing; each said tubular section having a piston end; an inlet/outlet port in some of said first ends for passage of a pressure fluid therethrough;
seal means mounted in some of said piston ends separating said fluid from ambient air;
bore means provided in some of said tubular sections on a front side of said piston ends; said bore means defining a scraper receiving section and a debris receiving area adjacent said scraper receiving section; and
scraper means disposed in said scraper receiving section of said bore means contacting an adjacent inner wall of an adjacent tubular sections whereby debris scraped and collected by said scraper means from said inner wall are deposited in said debris receiving area.
3. A telescopic hoist comprising:
a series of telescopically arranged tubular sections, each section having a first end and an opposite end; each said first end having an annular head;
a seal mounted on at least one of said annular heads;
a reservoir on at least one of said first ends located circumferentially adjacent said seal; said reservoir defining a scraper receiving section and a debris receiving area disposed adjacent to said scraper receiving section; and
a scraper disposed in said scraper receiving section of said reservoir contacting an adjacent inner wall of an adjacent tubular section whereby debris scraped and collected by said scraper from said inner wall are deposited in said debris receiving area of said reservoir.

a bore provided in at least one of said tubular sections on a front side of said piston ends; said bore defining a scraper receiving section and a debris receiving area adjacent said scraper receiving section; and
a scraper disposed in said scraper receiving section of said bore contacting an adjacent inner wall of an adjacent tubular sections whereby debris scraped and collected by said scraper from said inner wall are deposited in said debris receiving area.
