A system and method for securing the connection between carts that are configured to connect to each other to form a train of carts, as well as for securing the connection between a cart and a tugger that tows the carts. The system and method involves providing a spring biased blocking plate that is positioned above the boss of the drawbar when the drawbar is engaged with a hitch plate. The blocking plate limits vertical movement of the drawbar thereby preventing inadvertent disconnection of the drawbar from the hitch plate.

The present invention relates to a manually operable carriage and working attachments that may be employed with the carriage. The attachments may include a plow, a logging clamp, or other implements.

The present disclosure provides a system and method for securing the connection between drawbars of carts and hitches. The system and method involves limiting the drawbar's freedom to pivot once the drawbar is coupled to a hitch.

The present invention includes a system of cooperating handles for simultaneously maneuvering a wheelchair and a medical cart. The system comprises a first handle attachable to a wheelchair and a second handle attachable to the medical cart. The first handle has a lower portion and an upper portion, the lower portion adapted to receive a handlebar of the wheelchair. The upper portion of the first handle is vertically oriented. The second handle has a lower portion and an upper portion, with the lower portion being attachable to the medical cart. The upper portion of the second handle is also vertically oriented. The wheelchair and the medical cart are positionable to place the upper portions of the first and second handles proximate to one another so that a user can grasp each upper portion by a single hand to simultaneously maneuver the wheelchair and the medical cart together.

A dolly cart rail and lock system configured to secure one or more dolly carts within a vehicle is provided. The dolly cart rail and lock system includes a first upper rail connected to a platform of the vehicle. The first upper rail having a first end. A second upper rail opposes the first upper rail and is connected to the platform of the vehicle. The second upper rail has a first end. A bulkhead assembly connects the first end of the first upper rail and the first end of the second upper rail. A plurality of spaced apart pocket assemblies is attached to the first and second upper rails. At least one lock assembly is connected to the pocket assemblies and is configured to engage the dolly carts such as to limit movement of the dolly carts in a front-to-back direction.

An automatic guided vehicle according to one aspect of the present invention moves a trolley including a trolley body, wheels attached to the trolley body, and a section to be connected which is provided on the lower surface of the trolley body. The automatic guided vehicle is provided with: a vehicle body; drive wheels attached to the vehicle body; and a connection mechanism which is connected to the trolley, wherein the connection mechanism includes a connecting section disposed on an upper side of the upper surface of the vehicle body so as to be movable horizontally in a first direction, and includes a drive apparatus which moves the connecting section in the first direction and connects the connecting section to the section to be connected.
