CONTAINER ASSEMBLY WITH ADJUSTABLE MOUNT STRUCTURES
In an embodiment, an apparatus for storing articles includes: a frame; mount structures adjustably connectable to the frame so as to enable a height adjustment thereof on the frame; containers releasably connectable to the mount structures, thus enabling a height adjustment of each of the containers; and releasable connections between respective ones of the containers and the mount structures. Each of the releasable connections (between a container of the containers and a mount structure of the mount structures) is configured to enable the container to be releasably connected to the mount structure, where the releasable connection couples the container with the mount structure along a sidewall of the container.
Rolling container assembly with adjustable storage units
An apparatus for transporting articles between working locations includes one or more rotatable ground engaging wheels mounted towards the bottom of the apparatus for rotation about an axis to provide rolling support for the apparatus, a manually engageable pulling handle, a frame, at least one container connected to the frame, and an audio playback device. The audio playback device includes one or more speakers and is configured to be releasably connected to the apparatus. The pulling handle and the one or more ground engaging wheels are arranged to enable a user to manually pull the pulling handle generally rearwardly so as to tilt the apparatus rearwardly to a tilted rolling movement position, thereby enabling the user to roll the apparatus to a desired location by pushing or pulling the pulling handle in a desired direction.
WHEELED DEVICE AND WHEEL ASSEMBLY
A wheel assembly, a wheeled device and a method of manufacturing a wheel assembly. The wheel assembly includes a core and an outer portion coupled to the core. The core includes a body and one or more projections extending from the body. Material of the outer portion may be positioned radially between the body and a portion of the projection to limit radial movement of the outer portion relative to the core. The projection may define a bore and/or an undercut. Material of the outer portion may encompass the projection and fill the bore and/or the undercut. Engagement of the material of the outer portion and the projection(s) may limit relative movement between the core and the outer portion radially, axially, circumferentially, etc.
Interlocking primary and secondary cart assemblies with lock and release mechanisms
An interlocking primary and secondary cart assembly may include a primary cart assembly including a primary support platform configured to support a primary working device and wheels operatively connected to the primary support platform that movably support the primary support platform spaced from a floor and a secondary cart assembly including a secondary support platform configured to support a secondary working device and wheel connected to the secondary platform that moveably support the secondary support platform spaced from the floor. The assembly may further include a lock and release mechanism including a primary lock and release component connected to the primary cart assembly and a secondary lock and release component connected to the secondary cart assembly wherein the secondary lock and release component aligns with the primary lock and release component for locking therewith with the secondary cart assembly positioned on the primary support platform of the primary cart assembly.
STABILIZER WHEEL ASSEMBLY AND METHODS OF USE
Included is a stabilizer wheel assembly that may assist in stabilizing a medical device during a medical procedure. A medical device may comprise a body; and a plurality of stabilizer wheel assemblies coupled to the body, wherein the stabilizer wheel assemblies each comprise a motor assembly and a stabilization leg, wherein the motor assembly is configured to drive the stabilization leg onto a contact surface to stabilize the body.
INTERLOCKING PRIMARY AND SECONDARY CART ASSEMBLIES WITH LOCK AND RELEASE MECHANISMS
An interlocking primary and secondary cart assembly may include a primary cart assembly including a primary support platform configured to support a primary working device and wheels operatively connected to the primary support platform that movably support the primary support platform spaced from a floor and a secondary cart assembly including a secondary support platform configured to support a secondary working device and wheel connected to the secondary platform that moveably support the secondary support platform spaced from the floor. The assembly may further include a lock and release mechanism including a primary lock and release component connected to the primary cart assembly and a secondary lock and release component connected to the secondary cart assembly wherein the secondary lock and release component aligns with the primary lock and release component for locking therewith with the secondary cart assembly positioned on the primary support platform of the primary cart assembly.
Tool storage devices
Tool storage devices. A tool storage device may include a handle assembly including a support arm connected between a body and a handle portion and having a substantially rectangular cross section oriented with first walls extending transverse to the axis having a greater width than second walls extending parallel to the axis. A width of the handle portion may be at least about 50% of a width of the body. The body may include a frame assembly formed of a rigid material, a wall formed of a flexible material and at least partially defining the storage compartment with an open top, and a cover formed of a rigid material connected to the frame assembly to selectively close the open top. A wheel well portion receives each wheel and may cover the width of the wheel and a portion of the circumference of the wheel. A radial clearance between the wheel and a lower end of the wheel well may be no more than about 0.5 inches.
CARRIER ATTACHMENT APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR A VEHICLE
According to at least one exemplary embodiment, a carrier may be overlaid onto a vehicle. The vehicle may be a handle-propelled vehicle, for example a wheelbarrow. The carrier may have contours that fit over the top of the vehicle such that the carrier stays in place relative to the vehicle without additional fastening means when the vehicle is propelled in motion. The carrier design may also allow the carrier to be easily installed and removed from the vehicle. Additionally, the carrier may have a plurality of compartments of varying sizes and shapes. The compartments may be specifically designed to hold a variety of items, for example mobile technology devices, food containers, beverage containers, gardening materials and tools, landscaping materials and tools, or construction materials and tools.
Mobile and modular drill apparatus, components thereof, and methods of use
An apparatus providing a platform for installing screws can include a cart with wheels, an assembly rail system mounted to the cart, and a screw assembly mounted to the assembly rail system. The screw assembly can include a screw feeding device, a screw guide tube, and a screwing device such as a drill that rotates a drive shaft that engages a screw received from the screw guide tube. The screw feeding device can include a screw rack that holds screws, and a magnetic grip that moves a screw from the screw rack to a screw feeding tube that is connected to the screw guide tube. The screw guide tube can include bristles for centering a screw received from the screw feeding tube. The apparatus can include a computer control system that operates the screwing device and the screw feeding device.
Container with pivotable side latch
A container constructed and arranged to be connected to other containers is provided. In an embodiment, the container may comprise a container portion with an opening into an interior space in which articles to be transported can be stored; a lid for closing the opening; a handle for carrying the container; a front latch for securing the lid to the container portion; and a pivotable side latch, pivotally connected to the lid, that is moveable between a retaining position and a storage position. The pivotable side latch may be configured to engage a retaining structure of another container when the pivotable side latch is in the retaining position. The lid may comprise a depression, and the pivotable side latch may be further configured to be in the depression when the pivotable side latch is in the storage position. The container portion may comprise a retaining structure with an upward-facing lip that is configured to engage a pivotable side latch of a further container to facilitate securement of the container with the further container.
