Abstract
A hoist pick up bar, which has its entire clamp system inside the footprint of the truss. A benefit of placing the hoist inside the truss allows designers to raise the truss structure itself higher since the hoist is no longer above it. In embodiments, the device has clamps that move out of the way so that the device can be lowered on to the truss.
