A powered wheelbarrow assembly includes a wheelbarrow that includes a frame and a bucket that is hingedly coupled to the frame. A pair of front wheels is each rotatably coupled to the frame to roll on a support surface. A pair of rear wheels is each pivotally coupled to the frame to roll on the support surface. Each of the rear wheels is rotatable about a vertical axis for steering the wheelbarrow. A motor is coupled to the frame and a drive unit is movably coupled to the frame. The drive unit is in mechanical communication between the motor and the front wheels such that the motor rotates the front wheels when the motor is engaged. In this way the motor reduces the effort required to transport a load in the wheelbarrow. A clutch is movably coupled to the frame for engaging and disengaging the drive unit.

This work vehicle includes: an electric driving source which is driven by electrical power; and a travel part which is operated by the electric driving source. At least a portion of a loading part for loading an object to be loaded is provided above a first direction-side portion of the travel part. In addition, at least a portion of a detachable batch storage part, which has an accommodation part capable of accommodating a detachable battery, is provided above a portion of the travel part on a side in a second direction reverse to the first direction. An opening is formed in an upper portion of the accommodation part. The opening is directed upward and the axial line of the accommodation part in the battery attachment/detachment direction inclines to be directed in the first direction or the second direction.

A system and method are provided employing a self-contained mechanical device that is mountable to, for example, a lawn tractor or other similar powered unit, via a standard mounting system, such as a hitch-type mount, to facilitate movement of bulk material or heavy objects around a work site or storage facility. The disclosed embodiments provide a casterable frame and or platform system to which a manually or automatically tiltable platform or hopper may be mounted. Powered movement around a particular site may be facilitated by a small tractor, such as a lawn tractor. Manual unloading may be facilitated using a hinge system between the platform/hopper and frame. A knuckle may be provided as a connection point of the system, to control movement of the system and to facilitate storage of the system in translation of the system from a substantially horizontal position to a substantially vertical position.

Method, system, apparatus, and/or device for tipping or pouring a dewar into another receptacle. The dewar tipping system includes a first dewar. The first dewar is configured to store a liquid or gas. The dewar tipping system includes a dewar tipper with a cradle. The cradle is configured to capture the first dewar. The dewar tipper includes a counter balance assembly that is configured to tip or angle the cradle to pour a liquid or gas out of the first dewar. The dewar tipper includes a handle. The handle is configured to activate the counter balance assembly when in an engaged position. The dewar tipping system includes one of a second dewar or a catch basin. The one of the second dewar or the catch basin receives the liquid or gas when the first dewar is angled or inverted.

An electric mini push cart provided includes a cart frame, an operation platform, a bucket, and a hydraulic power device. The operation platform arranged on the rear side. The bucket is configured to load objects and located on one side of the operation platform. The hydraulic power device drives the bucket to turn over, the hydraulic power device is installed on the cart frame and located below the bucket, the hydraulic power device includes a piston rod connected to the first end. When the hydraulic power device is working, the piston rod is stretched or retracted to push or pull back the first end, so that the bucket turns around the second end, and moves away from the operation platform or falls back towards the operation platform.

A handcart may include a support frame, an actuator, a rotating frame configured to be rotated relative to the support frame by the actuator and a container configured to be rotated relative to the support frame. The container may be configured to be rotated with the rotating frame relative to the support frame when the rotating frame is rotated relative to the support frame by the actuator. The rotating frame may be rotatable up to a position at which an angle between the support frame and the rotating frame becomes a first rotation angle. The container may be rotatable up to a position at which an angle between the support frame and the container becomes a second rotation angle, the second rotation angle being greater than the first rotation angle.

A handcart may include: a support frame; a container; a lock member configured to move between a locking position at which the lock member restricts rotation of the container relative to the support frame and an unlocked position at which the lock member allows the rotation of the container relative to the support frame; and a retainer member configured to move between a retaining position at which the retainer member restricts a movement of the lock member from the unlocked position to the locking position and a non-retaining position at which the retainer member allows the movement of the lock member from the unlocked position to the locking position. The lock member may be configured to move from the locking position to the unlocked position and be maintained in the unlocked position by a movement of the retainer member from the non-retaining position to the retaining position.
