Has anyone attached one of these things to a garage ceiling (assuming it's bolted to the joists above the ceiling). Can regular residential attached garage ceilings handle such loads when suspended from them?

or its 440lb sibling.
I'm thinking of the clever installation with a barn door track on this page (he uses it for lifting/moving massive turning blocks to the lathe):
