Embodiments for a single user truck loader. A platform is configured to receive placement of a load. Wheels are disposed at locations of the platform. A dolly mechanism is disposed in a cavity formed in the platform. Sidewalls of the platform house the cavity. The cavity of the platform is configured to receive a lift deck of a lifting mechanism.

An occupant divider structure for a child's stroller utilizes a Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) sheet affixed by two releasable clamps to a bar extending vertically from a slotted insert receptacle that extends upwardly from the seat back center between two side-by-side occupant seats in a molded stroller frame. The shape of the PMMA sheet is designed so as to prevent contact by and between infants/toddlers occupying adjacent seats. The clamping mechanisms are designed to allow easy release from the mounting bar for removal thereof from the stroller.

A wheelbarrow bracket assembly for improving the performance of a wheelbarrow includes a wheelbarrow that has a bucket, a pair of handles, a pair of supports each extending between a respective one of the handles and the bucket, and a wheel that is rotatably coupled between the handles. A bracket is coupled between each of the supports. The bracket inhibits each of the handles from moving laterally away from the wheel. Thus, a nose piece that extends between the handles may be removed from the wheelbarrow. In this way the wheelbarrow may be rolled along the ground without having the nose piece engaging the ground and tipping the wheelbarrow.

There is disclosed a multiple child shopping cart extension for attachment to a shopping cart frame. The multiple child shopping cart extension may be used to make an extended shopping cart, for carrying additional children in a shopping cart, both standing and sitting. The multiple child shopping cart extension preferably comprises a frame structure and a plurality of frame securing elements, for securing said multiple child shopping cart extension to said shopping cart frame. The frame structure preferably comprises a base unit and two side rail portions, affixed at opposing sides of the base unit at a bottom end of said frame structure. The multiple child shopping cart extension may also have a seat unit and a safety strap.

A bracket assembly includes a bracket for attachment to a shopping cart and a cover connected to the bracket and covering at least part of the bracket. The bracket includes a metal plate having first and second faces, where the length is greater than the width, and the width is greater than the thickness. The bracket has a projection extending outward from the first face and a recess extending inward from the second face and corresponding to the projection. The cover has two walls and a cavity defined between the walls, and the bracket is received within the cavity such that the first and second faces each confront one of the walls. The cover further has a slot in at least one wall, such that the cover is press-fit on the bracket and the projection is received in the slot to retain the cover in connection with the bracket.
