A drive unit includes a drive wheel, a prime mover, a coupling mechanism and a support frame. The coupling mechanism includes first and second coupling members. The first coupling member includes a first opposed surface. The second coupling member includes a second opposed surface opposed to the first opposed surface. The second coupling member is attached to the first coupling member in a detachable manner. The support frame is attached to the coupling mechanism. The support frame supports the drive wheel and the prime mover. The first coupling member includes a first vertical groove and a first transverse groove on the first opposed surface. The second coupling member includes a second vertical groove and a second transverse groove on the second opposed surface. The second vertical groove is opposed to the first vertical groove. The second transverse groove is opposed to the first transverse groove.

A drive unit includes a support frame, a drive wheel and a prime mover. The support frame is disposed to be pivotable about a pivot axis. The drive wheel is supported by the support frame. The prime mover is supported by the support frame. The prime mover drives the drive wheel. The support frame and at least one member form a pivot unit. The at least one member pivots together with the support frame. The pivot unit has a center of gravity disposed on the opposite side of the pivot axis with respect to the drive wheel.

A cart that follows a transmission module based on position information of the transmission module and a method for moving the cart are provided. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the cart accumulatively stores the position information of the transmission module and generates a moving path based on the position information of the transmission module and moves.

A trolley case handle and a trolley case are disclosed. The trolley case handle includes a handle body and at least one bracket. The handle body has at least one groove for accommodating the at least one bracket. Each of the at least one bracket is connected to the handle body through a connecting shaft. The connecting shaft functions as a rotation shaft about which the bracket is capable of rotating relative to the handle body. Each of the at least one bracket is provided with a U-shaped notch. In addition, a handle top cover is disposed on a top portion of the handle body. When the handle top cover is in an open state, the connecting shaft is accessible and can be detached from the handle body.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including an apparatus that includes a motorized base configured to move the apparatus; an upper portion coupled to the motorized base; one or more load-sensing devices located between the motorized base and the upper portion, the one or more load-sensing devices being configured to (i) detect forces between the upper portion and the motorized base, and (ii) provide force information based on the detected forces between different portions of the upper portion and the motorized base; and one or more processors performs operations of: obtaining the force information provided by the one or more load-sensing devices; determining a difference between the forces indicated by the force information from the one or more load-sensing devices; determining, based the difference in the forces, a movement to be performed by the apparatus; and providing control information to cause the motorized base to perform the determined movement.

A heavy duty carriage includes a carriage body, a load receiving platform horizontally rotatably mounted on a top of the carriage body, and a plurality of caster bodies each horizontally rotatably supported by a caster shaft in a lower part of the carriage body. Each of the caster bodies has, in a lower part thereof, a front wheel rotatably supported by a front wheel shaft and rear wheels each rotatably supported by a rear wheel shaft. The front wheel and the rear wheels are positioned forward and rearward of an axial center of the caster shaft on a straight line in a horizontal direction. When the carriage body is placed on a floor surface and outer circumferences of the rear wheels contact the floor surface, an outer circumference of the front wheel does not contact the floor surface. By using four heavy duty carriages, the heavy object can be moved.

A wagon having both a utility mode and a driving mode is disclosed. The wagon includes a chassis and a bucket for conveying at least one object. The object can be an inanimate object, wherein the wagon can be configured in utility mode to be pulled by an operator. Or, the object can be a living being, wherein the wagon can be configured either for the utility mode or a driving mode to be driven and controlled by an occupant of the bucket. Various features enable the wagon to be reconfigurable for a desired design.

A beach wagon for transporting water sport boards and smaller objects. The wagon includes a front wall and the rear wall extending vertically from a floor and engaged to side walls; the wagon is carried on a plurality of wheels. The front wall and the rear wall each include a retaining slot. The retaining slots are in substantial alignment to hold a water sport board in the retaining slots spanning between the front wall and the rear wall. The walls of the wagon retain the smaller objects in the wagon. The slotted front and rear walls can be configured to retrofit existing wagons.

A pulling cart with four wheels can be folded into a folded configuration. The wheels are mounted on wheel assemblies which can be in an open or a folded position. The cart has a front panel hinged to a rear panel. The front panel has a front carrier for mounting two wheel assemblies and a pair of slide rails extendable to the second panel. A rear carrier having two wheel assemblies is fixedly mounted to the end portion of the slide rails to move between the front and rear panels. When the cart is used for pulling, all wheel assemblies are in the open position. Each carrier has two arm-receiving holes. Each wheel assembly has a pair of arcuate arms which can rest on the carrier to support the wheel in the open position or move through the arm-receiving hole into the folded position for folding the cart.

A pallet sled includes an upper frame including spaced-apart arms adapted to receive feet of a pallet therebetween. A lower frame supports the upper frame. A plurality of pivotable arms connect the lower frame to the upper frame. A handle is pivotably connected to the lower frame and the upper frame, such that pivoting the handle selectively raises and lowers the upper frame relative to the lower frame.
