Systems and methods for mobile overhead capture of cattle are disclosed. The system generally includes an apparatus having a mobile cattle pen for securing cattle therein. A lift device having a first arm member, a second arm member and a perpendicular support member for raising and lowering the mobile cattle pen over cattle. A winch assembly detachably connected to the front of a vehicle, such as a utility terrain vehicle (UTV). The winch assembly having a cable, rotating drum and motor. Wherein, upon activation of the motor of the winch assembly, the cable pulls down the first arm member of the lift device to raise the lift device and the mobile cattle pen into the air, and upon releasing the cable the lift device and mobile cattle pen is lowered to make contact with a ground surface and capture the cattle within the mobile cattle pen.

A stall vacuum trailer system to secure to a vehicle, the system includes a trailer supported by a frame and having a cargo compartment to receive particles therein; a vacuum machine supported by the frame, the vacuum machine having a motor; a fan device to mulch a substrate into the particles; and a hose extending from the fan and to extend to a rear of the cargo compartment; the fan device creates a vacuum effect to pull the substrate through the hose and further through the fan device and into the cargo compartment; the substrate is mulched into particles while entering the cargo compartment.

A large animal hauling vehicle is provided that has a supplemental animal stability system. The supplemental support system offers protection or otherwise helps the large animal remain stable during driving situations that could lead to the animal's instability. These situations by may include abrupt movements of the hauling vehicle, such as pronounced or increasing trailer sway situations or crash events. The instability protection system may include a support system with at least one deployable device, such as an inflatable cushion(s) and a control system that evaluates operational conditions and commands deployment of the deployable device(s) upon a determination of an instability condition.

A vehicle cargo area liner system for efficiently and removably lining a cargo area of a vehicle such as the bed of a pickup truck. The liner may be installed on the vehicle in addition to a hard shell liner as is common with pickup trucks. The liner includes a pair of inner connectors for removably securing the liner to the cargo area of the vehicle. The liner also includes a pair of outer connectors to which corresponding cover connectors on a cover may removably engage to removably secure a cover over the liner to enclose the cargo area. Securing connectors near the rear end of the liner may be utilized to secure the liner around a bed of a pickup truck. Straps may extend through openings in the liner to removably secure the front end of the liner to the cargo area.

A hinge locking system is provided for locking pivotable hinge parts at a desired angular position relative to one another. The hinge locking system includes a locking pin, a plate with a locking pin receiver, a movable pin receiver defining an axial bore for receiving the locking pin, and a pair of spaced-apart limit stops along the plate. The movable pin receiver is movable relative to the plate, and the limit stops are selectively contacted by the movable pin receiver to limit the maximum relative movement of the movable pin receiver. When the axial bore of the movable pin receiver aligns with the plate's locking pin receiver, the locking pin is insertable through the locking pin receiver and the axial bore in the movable pin receiver, to thereby lock the movable pin receiver and the hinge parts against further movement.

A configurable trailer system which includes a chassis supported by one or more axles and any combination of an enclosed trailer, a camper, a livestock trailer, a dump bed and an open-sided trailer. The chassis includes a support surface and, at corners of the support surface, a plurality of locks. Each of the enclosed trailer, camper, livestock trailer, dump bed and open-sided trailer includes a plurality of corner castings configured to selectively and securely couple with the locks. A method for configuring the trailer system includes placing a first one of an enclosed trailer, a camper, a livestock trailer, a dump bed and an open-sided trailer on the chassis and locking to the chassis by engaging the locks with corner castings provided to corners of the first one of the enclosed trailer, camper, livestock trailer, dump bed and open-sided trailer.

A moveable saddle rack that may be laterally translatable across a trailer, vertically translatable to facilitate user access to an upper saddle seat of the saddle rack, or both laterally translatable and vertically translatable.

The user removes the pin, located by the pivot bolt, unwinds the cable from the spindle of the winch, lowering the game carrier to the ground. The user pulls the strap or cable up to 25′ to the game and places the strap or cable around the game. The user then cranks the winch by rotating the handle or pushes the button on the electric winch, and guides the game up and onto the game carrier. Rotating the handle it takes up the strap or cable. The user can unhook the strap or cable from around the game, and attach the hook to the d-ring located on the front of the game carrier and rotate the handle or push the button to pull the game carrier back to the original position and relocate the pin in the hole located by the pivot bolt. Your game is ready for transport.
