Presented herein is a system and method for moving a shelving system includes a plurality of contact members, a plurality of lifting mechanisms, and a plurality of cross members. A single lifting mechanism is coupled with each end of each of the plurality of contact members. The coupling between a lifting mechanisms and an end of a contact member is secured with a locking mechanism. Each cross member is coupled with two adjacent contact members or the lifting mechanisms therewith. The lifting mechanisms may be activated to raise or lowered the contact members coupled therewith, for example by rotating a hand crank. As the contact members are raised, they engage the feet of the shelving system and raise the shelving system off of the floor. The shelving system may then be moved to a desired location.

B60P 1/02 - Vehicles predominantly for transporting loads and modified to facilitate loading, consolidating the load, or unloading with parallel up-and-down movement of load supporting or containing element
B60P 3/00 - Vehicles adapted to transport, to carry or to comprise special loads or objects
B62B 3/02 - Hand carts having more than one axis carrying transport wheelsSteering devices thereforEquipment therefor involving parts being adjustable, collapsible, attachable, detachable, or convertible
A system for moving a shelving system includes a lifting system that is operable to engage a section of a shelving system with a lifting element and to move the section of the shelving system upwardly or downwardly relative to a ground surface. The system also employs a moving device that is positionable between the shelving-system section and the ground surface when the lifting device moves the shelving-system section upwardly. The moving device also receives the section of shelving system onto a receiving area when the lifting device lowers the shelving-system section. The at least one movement component allows the at least one moving element to move relative to the ground surface. A lifting system for lifting a shelving system may include a jack and a lifting bracket that couples operation of the jack to upward or downward movement of the shelving-system section.
B66F 5/00 - Mobile jacks of the garage type mounted on wheels or rollers
B62B 5/00 - Accessories or details specially adapted for hand carts
B66F 9/06 - Devices for lifting or lowering bulky or heavy goods for loading or unloading purposes movable, with their loads, on wheels or the like, e.g. fork-lift trucks
