CASTER SYSTEM FOR MOVING FURNITURE
A caster system, including a housing portion, which includes first and second side walls defining an operational space therebetween and an upper wall including a central bore. A rolling assembly is disposed in the operational space, and is rotatable relative to the housing. The rolling assembly includes an exterior rim formed of a resilient material having at least one coloring agent embedded therein. A vertical connection assembly includes a shaft adapted to be fixed to a furniture article and to extend through the central bore in the upper wall. The housing portion is rotatable about the shaft of the vertical connection assembly. The coloring agent is adapted to be luminescent or phosphorescent in a dark environment.

Visible spring-biased castor assembly
A castor assembly includes a base, a wheel unit and a rotation shaft. The wheel unit is located under the base and includes a pivot member, an elastic member biased and exposed between the base and the pivot member, and two rollers mounted on the pivot member. The rotation shaft is mounted between the base and the wheel unit and extends through the elastic member. The rotation shaft has a periphery provided with an operation slot. A positioning pin extends through the pivot member and is slidable in the operation slot of the rotation shaft. Thus, the elastic member is exposed outward so that the user clearly sees the elastic member and knows the shock-absorbing function provided by the elastic member.
Caster having smooth 180? reverse rotation
The present invention relates to a caster, and particularly, to a caster which more smoothly rotates when reversely rotating 180? and effectively supports a weight of an object disposed on the caster to smoothly rotate in reverse without any shaking, wherein the caster has a structure in which a central portion, a connecting part, and a lower body part are sequentially provided under a support plate formed in an upper end portion of the caster, and in particular, a rotating part is mounted between the connecting part and the central portion.
DRIVE MODULE
This invention relates to a drive module. The drive module includes a base and a steering assembly rotatably mounted to the base. The steering assembly is selectively rotatable about a predetermined steering axis and carries a drive train. The drive train is configured to provide a multi-stage drive reduction of the drive train and the drive train is adapted to support a wheel such that a centre of a contact patch of the wheel is laterally offset from the steering axis.
MESH CRIB
In general a crib includes a first and second side that each have a first perimeter support having a bottom support portion, a first breathable material retained by the perimeter support, and a lateral support member that further supports the breathable material in a position within the perimeter support and attached to the perimeter support. The crib also includes third and fourth sides, wherein the first, second, third and fourth sides define an interior. The crib further includes a mattress support platform positioned in the interior and movable between a first position proximate the lateral support member and a second, lower position proximate the bottom portion of the perimeter support. The breathable material has an air permeability of between 385 CFM to 1530 CFM and a light permeability of between 47 and 99%. In another example a crib includes first and second sides and third and fourth sides that each include a top support fixedly attached to the first and second sides and a bottom support movably attached to the first and second sides, a first breathable material retained by the top support and the bottom support and the breathable material forming a sling for retention of a mattress support platform. The mattress support platform is movable to various positions by moving the bottom support member and wherein the sling also moves such that the breathable material moves up and down to enclose the space above the mattress support platform.
Caster adapter or wheel assembly for mobile wheel base
In order to form a mobile wheel base, a stem caster adapter or a wheel assembly are attached to the bottom of a platform support or a container such as a cardboard carton are provided. The adapter has a body with a cylindrical recess open at the bottom surface adapted to receive and engage the stem of the caster. In the wheel assembly, a wheel or roller is rotatably attached to the bottom of the body. Both the adapter and wheel assembly have a cylindrical member extending from the top surface of the body with oppositely extending protrusions forming a bayonet-type mount. The mount is received within an opening in the bottom of the platform support or container and then rotated to attach the adapter or wheel assembly to the platform support or container.
Attachable Stabilizer for Laterally Supporting a Garbage Bin
An attachable stabilizer for laterally supporting a garbage bin has a clevis, an extension plate, a garbage-bin coupler, a wheel and an axle. The wheel is positioned into the clevis, the wheel is rotatably connected with the clevis by the axle, the clevis is terminally positioned to the extension plate, the clevis is pivotally connected with the extension plate about a pivot axis, the pivot axis is perpendicularly positioned to the axle, the garbage-bin coupler is terminally connected with the extension plate, the extension plate is located in between the clevis and the garbage-bin coupler, and the garbage-bin coupler is used to be releasably coupled to the garbage bin.
Laundry cart
A laundry cart comprised of a base assembly, casters, steel frame assembly, handle, and fabric hamper body. The quadrilateral base includes a pair of longitudinally spaced U-shaped members interposed between a pair of longitudinal slats and a plurality of transverse slats fixed together in a common lattice fashion. The steel frame assembly is comprised of uprights along the periphery of the base platform, which includes offset uprights and corner uprights. The corner uprights are attached above the base, thereby reducing the shear stress on the laundry cart. The Z-shaped offset uprights allow all the uprights on the short side and long side of the cart to be on the same plane. The hamper body is sized and configured to seat within the uprights and crossmembers. The hamper body includes reinforced trim along the top periphery, which is constructed of a sewn soft rubber to prevent scuffing and damage to walls and doors.
Collapsible articulating cabinet frame
A collapsible cabinet frame articulates between a collapsed form and an expanded form. The collapsible cabinet form includes a first side frame with front corner posts, rear corner posts, and a plurality of front to back beams extending between the front corner post and the rear corner post. A second side frame with front corner posts, rear corner posts, and a plurality of front to back beams extending between the front corner post and the rear corner post. A front upper side to side beam and a front lower side to side beam are hingedly connected to the first side frame and the second side frame. A rear upper side to side beam and a rear lower side to side beam are hingedly connected the first side frame and the second side frame.
