A laundry treatment apparatus including a plurality of swivel casters. Two of the swivel casters are braked swivel casters. One of the swivel casters other than the braked swivel casters is a vertically adjustable swivel caster. The braked swivel casters restrain translational movement of the laundry treatment apparatus across a floor. The vertically adjustable swivel caster can help fix the position of the laundry treatment apparatus so as to restrain rocking and twisting of the laundry treatment apparatus.

A table featuring a horizontal surface, and two supporting trusses designed to be quickly attached and fastened to a horizontal surface, is claimed herein.

A cabinet system arranged to allow access to floor space underneath, the system including two side walls having front and rear edges, at least one door arranged proximate the front edges of the side walls and configured to be openable to access an area between the side walls; and a bottom panel arranged between the two side walls and configured such that at least a portion of the bottom panel is selectively movable to at least partially expose a floor space extending back from the front edges of the side walls.

A flip-top table has a tabletop attached to a frame through a pivoting assembly. The tabletop is made from a ballistic-resistant material allowing it to be used as a ballistic shield when it rotates from its horizontal working position to a vertical shielding position. A front modesty panel is also ballistic-resistant and is mounted between the front legs of the frame. A lift speed restrictor is connected between the tabletop and the frame which prevents the user from lifting the tabletop too quickly which could topple the table, and it includes a biasing mechanism that provides a lifting force and helps to hold the tabletop in the shielding position. The table also includes visual indicators that readily indicate to persons around the table that the table can be converted into a ballistic shield. Casters allow one or more tables to be quickly moved and repositioned into a defensive arrangement.

The disclosure relates to a support stand structure with a quick-release wheel mechanism, which includes a stand, a detachable wheeled seat, and multiple fasteners. The stand includes a base. The base has multiple slots and a rear wall. The detachable wheeled seat includes a board and multiple wheels. The board has a front plate disposed above the base and a rear plate projecting over the rear wall. The front plate has multiple tabs extended downwardly and inserted in each slot. Each tab has a through hole. The wheels are mounted on a bottom of the rear plate. The fasteners are installed on a bottom of the base. Each fastener includes a movable pin. Each movable pin is attachable to and detachable from each through hole. Therefore, the support stand has the advantages of stability and saving space with detachable wheels.

An article of furniture has retractable and extendable wheels secured beneath each leg. The mechanism for retraction and extension is accomplished by an activation means in mechanical communication with each wheel.

A revolving shelf system including first and second side plates configured to be mounted on opposite side walls of a cabinet, a drive track configured to extend from an inner front face to an outer back face of each of the first and second side plates, at least one shelf member having first and second ends connected to the drive track, and a drive mechanism located on the outer back face of at least one of the first and second side plates, the drive mechanism configured to move with a rotation motion the at least one shelf member about the drive track.

Disclosed is a wheel carrier for a suspension of a motor vehicle; and a motor vehicle comprising the wheel carrier. In a preferred system, the wheel carrier comprises a first carrier segment configured to carry a wheel of the motor vehicle at a wheel center; and a second carrier segment configured to couple the first carrier segment with a vehicle body of the motor vehicle. The second carrier segment comprises at least one groove, and the first carrier segment comprises for each groove a corresponding sliding pin configured to slidingly engage the respective groove such that the pin slides along the groove under vertical and/or horizontal displacements of the wheel center with respect to the second carrier segment.

An example article of furniture includes a number of furniture legs having mechanically coupled thereto a respective furniture caster having a rolling component. The furniture casters are movable between (i) an extended position in which their rolling components at least partially extend below bottom surfaces of the furniture legs and (ii) a retracted position in which their rolling components are positioned entirely above the bottom surfaces of the furniture legs. Push-pull cables are mechanically coupled to the furniture casters, and at least one actuator is mechanically coupled to the push-pull cables. When actuated, the actuator applies a pushing force to the push-pull cables, thereby causing the furniture casters to transition from the retracted position to the extended position. When the actuator is not actuated, the pushing force is removed from the push-pull cables, thereby causing the furniture casters to transition from the extended position to the retracted position.
