A braking and steering control apparatus to help a user stop, secure and move an object across a surface. The apparatus is particularly useful for securing and moving objects that are moveably supported on the surface by a wheel assembly, such as a caster, carriage and wheel float. The apparatus attaches to or is integral with a wheel assembly, an object or an item associated with the object. The apparatus has a wheeled action arm assembly, a reaction arm and a plurality of levers, links and pedals that are pivotally connected to the action arm assembly and reaction arm that allow the user to select whether the apparatus will allow safe, easy movement of an object or whether the object will be safely and effectively secured on a surface. The user selects the braking or steering operation and operates the controls using one of his or her feet.

A cart includes a carriage, a right front wheel, a left front wheel, a right rear wheel and a left rear wheel, and a suspension mechanism. The suspension mechanism includes a steering shaft, a link member, a tie rod, a holding member, and a buffer member. When the cart is viewed from behind, a lower space is defined under the carriage. The lower space has a width of ⅓ or more of a distance between a left side surface of the right front wheel and a right side surface of the left front wheel between the right front wheel and the left, front wheel. The lower space between the right rear wheel and the left rear wheel has the width of ⅓ or more of the distance between a left side surface of the right rear wheel and a right side surface of the left rear wheel.

The cart may include: a driving wheel; a motor configured to rotate the driving wheel; a motor drive circuit configured to drive the motor; a control device configured to control the motor via the motor drive circuit so that a travelling speed of the cart becomes equal to or lower than an upper limit travelling speed; and an operation member arranged on the cart and configured to receive an operation by a user. The cart may be configured to operate in a manual mode where the motor is driven when the operation member is on and the motor is stopped when the operation member is off, and in an automatic mode were the motor is driven regardless of whether the operation member is on or off. The upper limit travelling speed in the automatic mode may be set lower than the upper limit travelling speed in the manual mode.

The present disclosure provides a transporting apparatus. The transporting apparatus can include the following components: a first frame support configured to support an object; a second frame support configured to roll the transporting apparatus and to move relative to the first frame support and a plurality of shock absorbing elements positioned between the first frame support and the second frame support.

A tread link assembly is provided for improving the performance of a wheel on loose surfaces. The tread assembly includes a plurality of linked plates forming a circuit around the outer circumference of the wheel. The linked plates include first and second linking structures and releasable fasteners for linking adjacent plates together. The together the plates create a tread surface that is wider than the axial width of the wheel.

A pallet includes a top deck and pallet support legs coupled to the top deck. The top deck has a product support surface and an opposing underside, with the underside having snaps openings therein. Each pallet support leg includes a base extending across a width of the top deck, and a pair of outer leg supports extending from ends of the base. Each outer leg support includes at least one outwardly facing snap and at least one inwardly facing snap inserted into respective snap openings in the top deck.

An outdoor discovery cart is described. The outdoor discovery cart includes a frame, a plurality of wheels to support the frame, at least one shelf, and at least one door. Additionally, the outdoor discovery cart may include various storage containers or totes that can be supported by the frame and shelves. The cart allows various educational materials to easily be transported from one location to another, for instance, outdoors where traditional educational materials are not typically available. The cart may have additional features, such as locks to secure the doors and/or other components in place until a key is utilized. The various components of the cart may be made of different materials to help mimic a classroom, such as a white board, a chalk board, or metallic surfaces to enable use of magnets. The cart is full customizable based on a user's preference.

A pet stroller includes a stroller frame and an entrance arrangement. The stroller frame includes a foldable frame, a boundary frame supported by the foldable frame, and a handle frame upwardly extended from the foldable frame, wherein the boundary frame includes a U-shaped boundary member defining a pet seating area and a front entrance. The entrance arrangement includes a front entrance member movably coupled at two front ends of the boundary member respectively to move between an uplift position and a drop down position. At the uplift position, the front entrance member is lifted upwardly to form a front boundary of the boundary frame for blocking the front entrance, and at the drop down position, the front entrance member is dropped down to enlarge the front entrance for accessing the pet seating area.
