A low-profile cart for transporting a large disabled animal includes a bed box supported by a set of wheels. The bed box includes set of railings that are detachably secured to a lower base portion. Cut-outs in the front and rear sections of the lower base portion support a ramp that allows the animal to easily enter and exit the cart from either side without having to turn around.

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 fluid delivery system for delivering a fluid from an automatic water source to animals housed in cages in high density caging systems may comprise a fluid delivery valve assembly, wherein the fluid delivery valve assembly is adapted to be coupled to the automatic water source to facilitate the provision of fluid to animals housed in the cages. The fluid delivery valve assembly may further comprise a valve body and end cap, which may be joined together, that define a fluid channel. The fluid delivery valve assembly may further comprise sealing elements, a spring element, and an interior stem disposed at least in part in the fluid channel to open and close the fluid channel.

A positionable handle device for use with a wheelchair comprises a first member attachable to an existing handle of the wheelchair, a second member pivotally connected to the first member and, a locking mechanism to lock the second member in either a first upwardly extending position or a second downwardly extending position. The locking mechanism comprises a first tenon extending from the first member, a second tenon extending from the second member, and a slidable mortise into which the first and second tenons dispose. The mortise contains a first aperture extending therethrough and a second aperture at least partially extending inward from a lower portion of one side containing the second tenon. The mortise is positionable between a lowered and raised position. When in the lowered position, the mortise locks the tenons in place. When in the raised position, the mortise permits the second tenon to pivot.

The device consists of a base plate in which there are formed rails, in which there is placed the travel on the wheels. The travel is connected with an electric motor fastened also to the base plate, which ensures the movement of the travel. The transfer of the rotational movement of the electric motor into linear movement of the reciprocating to the travel is achieved by thanks to the crank mechanism. One side of the crank is rigidly connected with an electric motor, the other side is fixed to the travel. To the travel there is fixed the wheel of a stroller or crib, using demountable joint (fit). An important part of the device are the upper rails, which prevent from the vertical movement of the travel and thus allow only horizontal movement.

A sliding method on ice-surface aims at solve the problems of power output and poor durability and the difficulty in large-scale promotion. An ice-surface sliding tool includes a seat board, a U-shaped rod, sliding plates, H-shaped connecting frames, a pushing device, a hand-operated chain wheel and a reversing gear. One end of the upper end surface of the seat board is provided with a backrest. The U-shaped rod is provided on the side wall of the other end of the seat board. The lower end of the seat board is symmetrically provided with two sliding plates in parallel to each other. The sliding plates are connected with the lower end surface of the seat board through the H-shaped connecting frames. The pushing device is rotationally provided between the two H-shaped connecting frames. The hand-operated chain wheel is on the upper end of the U-shaped rod through a support bar.

A carrier adjusting mechanism is applied to a stroller including a stroller frame and a carrier and includes a base, a locking structure, a locking device, and a release actuator. The base is connected to the stroller frame. The locking structure is connected to the carrier and pivoted to the base. The locking device is disposed between the base and the locking structure. The locking device includes a first engaging structure, a second engaging structure, and a locking member. The locking member is engaged with the first engaging structure at a first position or the second engaging structure at the second position. The release actuator is disposed on the stroller and connected to the locking device for disengaging the locking member from the first engaging structure or the second engaging structure, to allow the locking structure to move between the first position and the second position together with the carrier.

A stroller having a frame, a seat on the frame for receiving a child and a heating/cooling system operably coupled to the seat. The heating/cooling system includes a single heating and cooling element proximate the seat. A reversible compressor is operably coupled to the single heating and cooling element. A first coil operably coupled to the compressor. A reversible expansion valve is operably coupled to the first coil. The reversible expansion valve is operably coupled to the single heating and cooling element. A refrigerant circulates through the single heating and cooling element, reversible compressor, first coil and reversible expansion valve. The heating/cooling system provides a first operating configuration for cooling the seat by having the refrigerant within the single heating and cooling element absorb heat, and a second operating configuration for heating the seat by having the refrigerant within the single heating and cooling element dissipate heat.

A stall and tack cart for transporting livestock is provided. The livestock stall and tack cart generally incorporates telescoping members and stall carriers protruding vertically therefrom. The telescoping members allow for a length of the livestock stall and tack cart to be adjusted such that the stall carriers may hold one or more livestock stalls securely while the stall and tack cart is in motion. The devices and methods provided have the advantages of being as durable and capable of carrying heavy loads as currently existing livestock transportation solutions, but allow equipment for one or more livestock animals to be quickly and easily transported, for example, from a waiting or confinement area to an exhibition space, including through crowded, obstructed, or tight passages.

A modular cart assembly includes a first carrier unit that may contain an animal. A pair of wheels is provided. Each of the wheels is rotatably coupled to the first carrier unit. Thus, the first carrier unit may roll along a support surface. A first handle is coupled to the first carrier unit and the first handle may be manipulated. A pair of second carrier units is provided. Each of the second carrier units may contain an animal. Each of the second carriers units is selectively stacked on the first carrier unit. Thus, each of the second carriers units is transportable with the first carrier unit.
