Abstract:
A hoist or hoisting device is configure to place a pallet on a roof without the need of a person on the roof. The hoist includes a deflector that moves between a first position and a second position and releases a strap from an open hook as the deflector moves from the first position. A release arm on the deflector contacts a portion of the strap to push the strap off the open hook after the pallet has contacted the roof. The hoist may then be raised and the strap be unthreaded and pulled upward through the pallet to leave the pallet installed on the roof.

Claim (Index 21):
A hosting device for lifting and placing a pallet on a rooftop, the hoisting device comprising:\n a support member including a first end and a second end defining a longitudinal direction therebetween, a first major surface opposite a second major surface defining a transverse direction therebetween, and a top and a bottom defining a vertical direction therebetween; a first pair of hooks connected to the support member adapted to connect with similar ends of two different straps; a second pair of hooks connected to the support member adapted to connect with other similar ends of the two different straps; a deflector coupled to the support member configured to move between a first position and a second position, wherein the deflector passes the second pair of hooks when moving from the first position and is adapted to release the other similar ends of the two different straps from the second pair of hooks after a pallet has been disposed at an intended location; wherein the support member is a rigid plate; a bottom edge of the plate wherein the second pair of hooks extend vertically below the bottom edge; wherein the first pair of hooks extend vertically below the bottom edge; wherein the first pair of hooks are closed hooks and the second pair of hooks are open hooks; and wherein the first pair of hooks are positioned outward from the second pair of hooks relative to a central vertical axis.
