An industrial truck comprises a load part comprises a load-carrying means including at least one load wheel and a drive part including a vehicle frame defining an opening. A steerable drive wheel and at least one support wheel are arranged on the vehicle frame. The at least one support wheel is arranged on a side of the drive wheel that faces away from the load part and is mounted as a trailing wheel that swivels about a vertical axis. The at least one support wheel is configured to at least partially protrude through the opening defined in the vehicle frame.

Maneuverable strollers are disclosed. An example stroller includes a frame that includes an upper frame support, an intermediate frame support, a lower frame support, and a handle coupled to the upper frame support. The example stroller also includes a front wheel coupled to the lower frame support, an intermediate wheel having an axis of rotation, and a rear wheel. The intermediate wheel is located between the front wheel and the rear wheel. The intermediate wheel and the rear wheel are coupled to upper frame support via the intermediate frame support. The example stroller also includes a pivot axis, where the intermediate frame support is coupled to the upper frame support about the pivot axis, and the pivot axis is offset above and forward to the axis of rotation.

Embodiments of the invention are designed to be improvements over existing wheelbarrows. Certain embodiments comprise a frame, one or more weight-bearing wheels, and a pan. In certain embodiments, a wheelbarrow comprises a bight or a bumper having wheels. The wheels on the bight or bumper are located to the sides of a weight-bearing wheel. In certain embodiments, wheels located on each side of a bight or bumper portion allow a user to maneuver a wheelbarrow up or down a curb, or navigate stairs without causing damage to surfaces. Certain embodiments of the invention allow more efficient unloading of the contents of a wheelbarrow bed. Certain embodiments are designed to retrofit on existing wheelbarrows.

An assistive pushcart device for rollerblading includes a set of first wheels and a set of second wheels that are rotationally coupled to a frame proximate to a front and a back of the frame, respectively. A handle that is coupled to and extends transversely from the back of the frame is configured to be grasped in one or two hands of a user to stabilize the user as the user locomotes the frame along a surface. Each of set of brakes is operationally coupled to a respective one of the first wheels and the second wheels. The set of brakes is positioned to selectively slow and stop rotation of at least one of the first wheels and the second wheels. An actuator that is coupled to the handle and operationally coupled to the set of brakes is positioned to selectively actuate the set of brakes.

A foldable golf trolley comprising a chassis; at least one electrically powered rear drive wheel; a wheel support arm mounted to the front of the chassis supporting a front wheel; a stabilizer arm mounted to the rear of the chassis supporting a stabilizer wheel; a main support mounted to the chassis and a handle mounted to the main support; wherein the main support, the wheel support arm and the stabilizer arm are rotatably mounted to the chassis and movable between an operative configuration and a folded configuration; and gears connecting the stabilizer arm and main support, wherein rotation of the main support between the operative configuration and the folded configuration cause rotation of the stabilizer arm between the operative configuration and the folded configuration.

Wheelbarrow auxiliary or modular attachments that can include auxiliary storage devices, transport/stability pins, lids/covers, seats, stabilizers/struts, other storage/support devices, auxiliary power (outlets, charges, etc.), batteries, cupholders, tub extensions/baskets, device holders, attachment holders, counterweights, stabilizer wheels, quick connection/release mechanisms, etc. In various embodiments, one or more modular attachments or devices can be selectively added or attached to a wheelbarrow as needed. In some embodiments, the modular attachments or devices can be included with the wheelbarrow from the onset. In other embodiments, modular attachments can be added to the wheelbarrow later, including as a kit.

A mobile carriage includes a traveling part, a wheel, a bed, a displacement conversion part, and an elastic member. The wheel is provided on the traveling part. The bed is supported by the traveling part to be movable in a traveling direction of the traveling part. The displacement conversion part displaces the wheel relative to the traveling part in accordance with displacement of the bed relative to the traveling part. The elastic member applies a force to return the bed having moved relative to the traveling part to an initial position before the movement. The displacement conversion part displaces the wheel relative to the traveling part in a direction of inertial force acting on the bed.

An assistive pushcart device for rollerblading includes a set of first wheels and a set of second wheels that are rotationally coupled to a frame proximate to a front and a back of the frame, respectively. A handle that is coupled to and extends transversely from the back of the frame is configured to be grasped in one or two hands of a user to stabilize the user as the user locomotes the frame along a surface. Each of set of brakes is operationally coupled to a respective one of the first wheels and the second wheels. The set of brakes is positioned to selectively slow and stop rotation of at least one of the first wheels and the second wheels. An actuator that is coupled to the handle and operationally coupled to the set of brakes is positioned to selectively actuate the set of brakes.

A multi-terrain cart, comprising a cart body, two front and two rear non-pivoting wheels, a swivel wheel positioned forwardly or rearwardly to the front and rear non-pivoting wheels, respectively, an actuator for applying a downward force to the swivel wheel which causes the swivel wheel to be set at an operative position and two of the non-pivoting wheels to be raised relative to an underlying ground surface, and means for setting an angle of the swivel wheel relative to a lengthwise extending centerline of the cart body to cause the cart to rotate about a center of rotation that is determined by the set angle of the swivel wheel.

A wheelbarrow with multiple wheels on a front axle is provided. The wheelbarrow includes a cargo carrying portion, two load carrying members supporting the cargo carrying portion, and a motor providing an output torque. The wheelbarrow further includes the front axle attached to the two load carrying members, a middle wheel attached to the axle and receiving the output torque from the motor, and two side wheels attached to the axle, one on either side of the middle wheel wherein the two side wheels each have a smaller diameter than the middle wheel.
