A lifting lug apparatus comprises a mounting plate adapted for attachment to an upper portion of an object to be lifted. A lifting lug defines a hook aperture and is pivotally attached to the mounting plate such that the hook aperture is movable from a lateral position, wherein the hook aperture is oriented in a lateral plane extending outward from the mounting plate and outward from an attached object to be lifted, to an upright position, wherein the hook aperture is oriented in an upright plane extending upward from the mounting plate. The lifting lug is biased toward the lateral position so that a lifting hook can conveniently be engaged in the hook aperture, and when the object is lifted the lifting lug pivots upward to reduce stress on the connection between the lifting lug and the object.
Une oreille de levage comprend une plaque de montage adaptée pour être fixée à une partie supérieure d'un objet à lever. Une oreille de levage définit une ouverture pour crochet et est fixée de manière à pivoter à la plaque de montage pour que l'ouverture pour crochet soit déplaçable d'une position latérale, dans laquelle l'ouverture du crochet est orientée dans un plan latéral s'étendant vers l'extérieur de la plaque de montage et vers l'extérieur à partir d'un objet fixé à lever, jusqu'à une position verticale, dans laquelle l'ouverture pour crochet est orientée dans un plan vertical s'étendant vers le haut à partir de la plaque de montage. L'oreille de levage est retenue vers la position latérale pour qu'un crochet de levage puisse facilement être engagé dans l'ouverture pour crochet, et lorsque l'objet est levé, l'oreille de levage pivote vers le haut pour diminuer la contrainte sur la connexion entre l'oreille de levage et l'objet.
