DIVIDER SYSTEM FOR A SHOPPING CART
Described is a divider system that divides a shopping cart basket up into compartments so that items in the shopping basket can be kept separate from each other. The divider system includes a first divider and a second divider that couple to one another using a slot in the second divider. The first divider and the second divider are each flat elongate panel assemblies of multiple flat panel structures. The first and second dividers are formed of three flat panels, two outer hollow panels and a center panel that slides into and out of each of the two hollow outer panels. With the divider system inserted into the basket of a shopping cart and coupled to the shopping cart, the divider system divides the shopping basket into multiple compartments for dividing items in the shopping basket.
Utility Cart
A utility cart includes a flooring apparatus and a pair of wheels. The flooring apparatus includes first and second bracket assemblies and first and second panel members. The first and second panel members are movable relative to the first and second bracket assemblies between an unfolded position in which the first and second panel members extend horizontally and a folded position in which the first and second panel members extend vertically. One wheel of the pair of wheels is attached to the first bracket assembly and another wheel of the pair of wheels is attached to the second bracket assembly. The flooring apparatus is disposed between the pair of wheels when the first and second panel members are in the unfolded position and the folded position.
DEVICE FOR COLLECTING COMPACTION MATERIAL AND FOR FEEDING THE COLLECTED COMPACTION MATERIAL TO A PRESS THAT COMPACTS THE COMPACTION MATERIAL, AND MOBILE COLLECTION CART FOR USE IN THE DEVICE
A device for collecting and feeding compaction material to a press, comprising a collection cart having a compaction material collection compartment, and a compaction material feed device, with which the cart can be docked. The cart has a floor and opposing side walls and the compaction material can be removed, by an upward lifting motion, from the cart by the feed device and then fed to the press. A web-type, flexible or articulated carrier element with a floor portion and at least two opposing wall portions, each having an upper free edge, is provided on or in the cart. The carrier element, in an initial position, has a U-shaped form running parallel to at least two opposing side walls and the floor of the cart, when the cart is docked with the feed device. The carrier element can be shortened or lifted at one of the free edges.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVED AUTOMATIC CHOCKING OF A CARGO DOLLY
An improved auto-chocking enabled cargo dolly that is towable by ground support equipment. The dolly has a frame, wheels attached to the frame that support the frame and rotate to allow movement of the frame, a tow bar, a linkage in communication with the tow bar and that actuates when the tow bar is raised, and a wheel engagement chocking system fixed to the dolly frame and disposed to selectively engage at least one of the wheels attached to the dolly frame. The wheel engagement system is responsive to a position of the linkage, where the wheel engagement chocking system applies pressure directly to at least one of the wheels to hold the wheel(s) in place when the linkage is actuated by the tow bar.
TECHNOLOGIES FOR CADDY ASSEMBLIES
A container system including a storage base that includes a frame and a partition wall dividing the frame into first and second compartments, where each of the first and second compartments includes a cavity formed therein and the partition wall is formed to include a handle, and the handle is configured to removeably couple a first and second storage base to form a storage unit.
Compactible Wagon
Compactible wagons are provided having at least two operational configurations. The compactible wagon has a first unfolded configuration where the first and second set of wheels are space apart by a horizontal platform, and where the wagon has one or more sidewalls, and at least a second compacted configuration where the horizontal platform is folded into a vertical configuration and the first and second set of wheels are disposed next to each other. The compactible wagon can have one or more additional configurations, including at least an unfolded configuration without sidewalls and/or an extended configuration where one or more of the sidewall are disposed to extend the surface area of the horizontal platform of the wagon. Many different rigid and flexible sidewalls may be used with the wagon.
WAGON FOR TRANSPORTING BEACH EQUIPMENT
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.
Cooler Assembly
Disclosed is a cooler assembly that may be used to attach accessories and/or one or more wheel assemblies to an insulated body of a cooler. The insulated body of the cooler being a container body of a container (i.e., the cooler). The cooler assembly may include any one of or a combination of the following components: the container body (i.e., the insulated body of the cooler); the one or more wheel assemblies with or without adjustable axles for mobility; accessories such as an accessory table and an accessory chair; accessory fastener devices for attaching the accessories to the cooler; and wheel assembly fastener devices for attaching the wheel assemblies to the cooler. The accessory fastener devices and the wheel assembly fastener devices are reusable and may be easily inserted and removed from the cooler or the container for mounting on a second cooler or platform.
Cart with removable wheel base
A cart transports items between a controlled environment (e.g., a clean room or an airlock to a clean room) and an uncontrolled environment. The cart has a main body that carries the items, and a removable and interchangeable wheel base assembly. A first wheel base assembly is located in the uncontrolled environment and a second wheel base assembly is located in the controlled environment. The user can push the cart (with the first wheel base assembly) up to the second wheel base assembly at the boundary between the controlled environment and the uncontrolled environment. The user then unlocks the main body from the first wheel base assembly, slides the main body onto the second wheel base assembly, and locks the main body to the second wheel base assembly. An autoclavable storage and transport cart can hold several wheel base assemblies.
CASTER WHEEL BRACKET, CASTER AND MOVABLE CONTAINER
A caster wheel bracket, a caster and a movable container are disclosed. The movable container includes a frame and a caster. The caster includes a caster wheel bracket and a caster wheel. The caster wheel bracket includes a support plate. A first restricting portion is disposed on an upper surface of the support plate. The first restricting portion is detachably fitted to corresponding two of the transverse rods. A second restricting portion is disposed on one end of the support plate. The second restricting portion is detachably fitted to a corresponding one of the longitudinal rods. A mounting portion is connected to a lower surface of the support plate for mounting a caster wheel. The caster can be mounted and dismounted quickly and the position of the caster can be adjusted according to the actual needs.
