A collapsible mobility aid with two frame elements, on each of which at least one wheel is secured or can be secured, and with a folding mechanism by which the frame elements are connected to each other, and a distance between the frame elements in a first position of the folding mechanism can be adapted to a transport distance and in a second position of the folding mechanism can be adapted to a use distance, wherein the folding mechanism has a central element with a slide arranged moveably with respect thereto, at least two connection arms which are each articulated on a frame element and on the central element, and at least two levers which are each articulated on a connection arm and on the slide, wherein the swivel axes, about which the levers are arranged on the connection arms and the slide such that they can be swiveled, are on one plane when the folding mechanism is in the second position.

This invention is directed to a kit of coolers that offers a number of improvements over the prior art. The coolers are modified to specifically accommodate frozen gel ice packs instead of ice cubes. Because there is no spill water, the coolers open with front-facing pull-out drawers. The coolers stack atop one another with interlocking parts. Easy transport is provided by a handle and wheels, which may be attached to the bottom (main) bin or alternatively on a separate dolly. Internally, the cooler bins are compartmentalized horizontally or vertically with dividers. Hollow spaces within the walls and dividers of the bins accommodate frozen gel ice packs. Overall, the coolers are easier to pack and unpack, stack, load into a car, and transport on the ground than conventional ice chest coolers.

A method for using a mobile anchor cart assembly can include repositioning a cart of the mobile anchor cart assembly from an anchored position to a mobile position on a ground surface, the cart including a frame defining a front side and a rear side, the frame defining a front foot and a rear foot, the front foot and the rear foot resting upon the ground surface in the anchored position, the front foot and the rear foot clearing the ground surface in the mobile position; and an axle assembly mounted on the front side, the axle assembly clearing the ground surface in the anchored position, the axle assembly contacting the ground surface in the mobile position, the front foot positioned between the axle assembly and the rear foot; and rolling the mobile anchor cart assembly along the ground surface with the axle assembly.

A utility cart including a rectangular base is provided. The utility cart includes at least one handle extending outward and upwards from a short side of the rectangular base and a leg extending down from the short side of the rectangular base on the short side of the handles. The utility cart also includes a first wheel assembly joined to the rectangular base on end opposite to the handles, wherein two wheels and the leg are positioned such that the rectangular base is horizontal with a floor, two holes centered along each long side of the rectangular base, and a first adjustable guard that fits into the two holes.

An ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment includes a body, a plurality of wheels, and control circuitry. The body sends and receives ultrasonic waves to generate an ultrasonic image. The plurality of wheels supports and moves the body. The assist wheel is electrically driven, and assists movement of the body. The control circuitry is configured to control switching between grounded and ungrounded of the assist wheel to a floor.

A device and method of using a Multi-functional utility cart comprising a base, an axle and wheel assembly, a lower structure, and an upper structure, wherein said axle and wheel assembly are attached to base, base is pivotally attached to lower structure, two upper structural vertical tube frames are slide ably connected to two lower structural vertical tube frames, a rotational tray connected to the upper vertical structural tube frames, a foldable base is connected to the two lower structural vertical tube frames; wherein a user elects to collapse said multi-functional utility cart for easy storage and folding, wherein user would minimize the size of said collapsible frame by sliding two upper vertical tubes into two lower vertical tube frames and user would fold up said base; and wherein said multi-functional utility cart has four types of wheel designs and locations that can be utilized for different tasks.

A tote has a hollow main body, a plurality of wheels, and an axle. The hollow main body has a plurality of side walls and a base wall. The base wall defines an open top and a cavity. The open top is circumscribed by a rim. The open top is configured to be covered by a lid. The base wall is bounded by the plurality of side walls. The base wall also includes a pair of outer wheel wells and a central wheel well. The central wheel well is disposed between the outer wheel wells and separated from the outer wheel wells by axle supports. Each of the plurality of wheels is disposed in one of the outer wheel wells and the central wheel well. The axle is connected to each of the wheels. The axle is rotatably supported by the axle supports of the hollow main body.

A dolly includes an actuated platform and obstruction sensor as well as a camera and a depth sensor. The eye height of a user is determined according to outputs of the camera and depth sensor. The platform is then moved to an elbow height determined based on the eye height and the depth sensor is moved to a position above the platform. In response to detecting obstruction of the obstruction sensor, the platform is lowered. Upon completion of loading, the platform is lowered to a lowest position. A stand may be retracted upon lowering of the platform to its lowest position.

Wheeled transport carts are described which are configured for transporting drain cleaning equipment such as drain cleaning machines and drain cleaning cable. The carts include engagement provisions that enable a drain cleaning machine to be affixed to the cart and preclude unintended separation from the cart during use or transport. The engagement provisions also enable the drain cleaning machine to be quickly and easily separated from the cart. Also described are methods of transporting such equipment using the carts. In addition, systems of the cart(s) with various equipment are described.
