A mortuary human removal system with battery powered stairclimbing capability is disclosed having a mortuary body glide board, riveted to a top side of a commercially available battery powered stairclimbing hand truck. A multi-stage two wheeled prop stand is coupled to an opposing side of the hand truck longitudinal rails, which is designed to create two automatically latching positions of separation between the wheels and the hand truck rail. The shorter separation is used as an aid to safely lifting a human body on the mortuary human removal system to a first height above the ground. The second position is at a predetermined height for use as a fulcrum to tipping the foot end up and into an ambulance, hearse or other vehicle and be automatically folded up as the mortuary human removal system is pushed all the way into the vehicle.

A hand truck includes a frame that is supported by main wheels and a handle having two side members. Two handle brackets are pivotably mounted on opposite sides of the frame. The handle brackets are arranged for rotation in relation to the frame around a handle rotation axis. The handle brackets slidably receive the side members of the handle so that the handle is able to slide between a first retracted position and a second extended position. The handle is also able to rotate with the handle brackets between first and second rotational positions. A lock mechanism that is mechanically associated with the handle brackets and the handle is able to releasably lock the degree of extension of the handle in at least one position between the retracted and extended positions and is able to lock the rotational position of the handle in at least one rotational position.

A hand truck assembly for transporting an object includes a frame that is selectively manipulated. A plate is coupled to the frame to support an object thereby facilitating the object to be lifted. A pair of first wheels is each rotatably coupled to the frame. Each of the first wheels rolls along the support surface thereby facilitating the object to be transported. A second wheel is rotatably coupled to the frame and the second wheel selectively supports the frame when one of the first wheels is damaged. A pair of handles is each coupled to the frame for gripping.

A multi-mode load carrier is convertible to assume a storage mode, a cart mode, and a hand-truck mode. The load carrier includes a rolling base and a base pusher having a handgrip.

A foldable or collapsible cart can be oriented in several different configurations to accommodate different loads and transport requirements. In one configuration, the cart may be folded for direct load the back of a vehicle. In another configuration, the cart can operate in lowboy or dolly mode. In another configuration the cart may be used as a hand truck.

A garbage cart assembly for includes a cart and a plurality of garbage containers that are positioned on the cart. The cart is selectively rolled along a support surface thereby facilitating the plurality of garbage containers to be transported along the support surface. A cage is coupled to the cart to inhibit the plurality of garbage containers from falling off of the cart. A dolly is provided and the dolly is selectively rolled along the support surface. The dolly is selectively and removably coupled to the cart thereby facilitating the cart to be urged along the support surface.

A folding, personal vehicle includes a frame having a foot deck, a front wheel, a bracket, and a handle. The bracket is pivotally connected to the frame and has a bottom position and a top position. The handle is connected to the bracket and is positioned at least partially elevationally above the foot deck of the frame when the bracket is in the top position and is positioned at least partially elevationally below the foot deck of the frame when the bracket is in the bottom position. A folding mechanism for a personal vehicle includes a bracket with a first bracket profile and a second bracket profile. The first bracket profile engages a rear side of a bottom rod when the bracket is in a top position. The second bracket profile engages a front side of the bottom rod when the bracket is in a bottom position.

A hand truck having a plurality of hingeably engaged sides that is expandable from a closed position dimensioned to fit through a standard doorway, to an open position to form a movable platform having a swing out support frame having an upper end hingedly attached to the rear side of the center frame which is movable between an extended position and a stored position. A corresponding sofa dolly and a platform enclosure is also disclosed.

A transport means (N) includes at least one lower support (1) on which at least two cylinders, in which a material which can be a compressed gas is stored, are placed by being stacked on the top of one another; at least one body (3) having one end connected to said lower support (1); at least one first steering element (2a) disposed on the body (3) for steering the cylinders during transport, at least two motion elements (4) connected to said body (3) for providing the movement of the transport means (N), the transport means (N) including at least one thrust mechanism which allows the topmost cylinder to move closer toward the lower support (1) such that the cylinders stacked on the top of one another do not come apart during transport.
