The present invention provides an improved drill rig for drilling vertical loop field for geothermal heating/air conditioning units, methods of designing and installing novel vertical loop fields under existing buildings, and novel vertical loop field structures and geothermal heating systems including such loop fields.

A moving body includes: a first body including at least one wheel, an electric motor and a first secondary battery; and a second body attachable to and detachable from the first body and including an electric power load and a second secondary battery. When the second body is mounted on the first body, at least one of the second secondary battery and the first secondary battery is allowed to be charged in a charging mode including at least one of a first charging mode and a second charging mode. In the first charging mode, the second secondary battery is charged using electric power output from the first secondary battery. In the second charging mode, the first secondary battery is charged using electric power output from the second secondary battery.

An improved jack assembly for use with a trailer tongue of a towed vehicle. The jack assembly including telescoping height adjustment of the assembly, a pivot assembly for pivoting between a vertical and horizontal stowed position, and a clip for maintaining a handle assembly in a stowed position when not in use. The jack assembly also includes the use of bushings for the telescoping tubes to enhance the sliding movement between the tubes and aid in maintaining the axial alignment of the tubes thereby extending the life of the jack assembly. The pivot assembly further includes an attachment bracket that may be rotated to accommodate at least two different sizes of trailer tongues.

A lever system for actuating a plunger pin on a trailer jack includes a lever, an attachment member for attaching the lever to the plunger pin and an engagement member which limits the movement of the lower end of the lever toward the trailer jack.
