MOBILITY APPARATUS
A mobility apparatus having: a base having casters; a handle assembly pivotally attached to the base; a locking mechanism operable to place the handle assembly into a plurality of positions corresponding to an operating mode of the apparatus, and maintain the handle assembly in one of the plurality of positions; an actuating mechanism coupled to the locking mechanism to actuate the locking mechanism; and wherein the locking mechanism comprises: a hub fixedly secured to the base; a hub ring rotatably secured within the hub and comprising attachment means for the handle assembly; a gas spring mechanism coupled to the hub ring to provide a mechanical advantage to assist an operator in lifting a patient; a breaking mechanism for the casters, wherein the breaking mechanism is operable to lock and unlock the casters simultaneously.
DOLLY AND METHOD OF MANIPULATING SAME
A dolly includes a frame having an axle extending between dolly wheels and defining a pivot axis. The frame has a support member with a ground-engaging element spaced apart from the dolly wheels. A lever arm is mounted to the frame and extends to a handle. The lever arm is positioned on a first side of the axle. A container support is mounted to the frame on the first side of the axle. The handle is manipulable to pivot the support member, the lever arm, and the container support about the pivot axis between at least a storage position and a discharge position. In the storage position, the container axis has an upright orientation and the ground-engaging element is spaced from the ground surface. In the discharge position, the container axis has an orientation being substantially parallel to the ground surface, and the ground-engaging element abuts against the ground surface.
GLASS HAND TRUCK
A hand truck includes a frame, a handle attached to a rear side of the frame, a platform extending from a front side of the frame, a plurality of feet attached to an underside of the platform, at least one support member attached to the front side of the frame, and an axle supporting a plurality of wheels, wherein the axle is attached to the frame. The hand truck may include a standing configuration and a mobile configuration. In the standing configuration, the plurality of wheels and at least one of the plurality of feet contact a ground surface to support the hand truck such that the platform is arranged at an oblique angle with respect to the ground surface.
LIFT MECHANSIM
A lift mechanism. The lift mechanism includes a base configured to support the lift mechanism in an upright position. A neck is upstanding from the base. A lift bracket is coupled to the neck. A coupling bracket includes a U-shape having a base and arms extending from opposing ends of the base. The base is coupled to the lift bracket. A linear actuator is configured to move the lift bracket up and down along the neck.
Plastic bag holder
The subject plastic bag holder is adapted for holding a large plastic bag next to a side of a two wheel cart and on top of a base of the cart. The bag holder includes a U shaped ring having threaded ends for attachment to a horizontal support bar. The support bar is attached to an upper portion of a frame of the cart. The support bar and the ring included a plurality of spaced apart, upwardly extending, pins. The pins are used for attaching the plastic bag to the top of the support bar and the top of the ring for holding the bag in an open top position for receiving the yard and garden waste material therein.
MOVING CARRIER
A moving carrier is disclosed. A lower-frame assembly includes a first moving member disposed on the guiding member, a second moving member disposed on the guiding member, an elastic member disposed corresponding to the guiding member, and a third moving member disposed on the second moving member. A transmitting member of a front-wheel assembly has a guiding groove. One end of the third moving member is disposed in the guiding groove. When the first moving member moves along the guiding member, the first moving member enables the elastic member to store a first energy. When the elastic member releases the first energy, the second moving member drives the third moving member to move and the third moving member pushes the guiding groove to move, so that the transmitting member can drive the front-wheel frame to move toward the lower-frame assembly.
MOVING CARRIER
A moving carrier includes a body frame connecting device, an adjustment assembly, a body frame, an axle frame, at least one axle and at least one wheel. The adjustment assembly is disposed on the body frame connecting device. One end of the body frame is connected to the body frame connecting device. The relative positions of the body frame and the body frame connecting device are changed by adjusting the adjustment assembly. The axle frame is disposed on the body frame connecting device. The axle is connected to the axle frame. The wheel is disposed on the axle and connected to the axle frame by the axle.
MOBILE SUPPORT ASSEMBLY FOR HOLDING AND TRANSPORTING A CONTAINER
A mobile storage apparatus for containers is provided. The apparatus provides a unique support assembly for holding a container. The assembly includes a latch mechanism that allows a clamp of cylinder to be moved from a closed position to an open position which creates clearance around a neck of cylinder to allow it to rotate without falling out of clamp. The other end of apparatus is structurally configured with a release plunger that can be retracted to allow rotation of cylinder along said other end. Rotatable wheels on a user side with a braking mechanism along a handle and a foot ledge allow improved maneuverability and stability.
Racing canoe dolly
Disclosed is a canoe transport dolly having a main truck, a front truck, and a rod connecting the main truck to the front truck. The main truck and the front truck each have a gantry assembly comprising one or more axles in communication with one or more tires, a powerhead assembly, a plurality of threaded rods interconnecting the gantry assembly to the powerhead assembly. A plurality of arms are in rotational communication with the powerhead assembly, each arm having a hooked end extending away from the powerhead assembly. A canopy assembly positioned above the belt assembly for engaging a canoe gunwale, wherein the canopy assembly releasably engages the arms' hooked ends; and a return asset assembly in communication with the arm assembly, the return asset assembly.
HANDLE ASSEMBLY FOR TRANSPORTING A STRUCTURE, DOLLY INCLUDING THE SAME, AND ASSOCIATED ASSEMBLY METHOD
A handle assembly is for transporting a structure. The handle assembly includes a retention member configured to be secured to the structure, a coupling apparatus coupled to the retention member and configured to couple the retention member to the structure, and a handle coupled to the retention member and configured to allow the structure to be transported when the retention member is coupled to the structure.
