A drum transporter that can be used to move a drum from a first bed at a first location to a second bed at a second location is described. The drum transporter can be coupled to a drive cart and powered thereby. The drum transporter is operable to grab a drum on the first bed and pull the drum onto a support bed of the drum transporter for subsequent movement to the second location. The drum transporter is operable to push the drum off the support bed and onto the second bed.

An adapter for readily changing out and mounting cable reels having a central opening in a transport device, such as a dolly, includes a pair of male portions, each having a body having a projection extending therefrom. The projections have at least one high spot. A pair of female portions are configured for mating with the male portions and have at least one recess for receiving the male portions' projections. A pair of fasteners secure the respective male and female portions to each other. An axle extends between the male or female portions, through the reel central opening and the male or female portions are positioned on ends of the axle. The reel with the axle and the male or female portions is positioned in the reel trolley, with the male or female portions mated with the others of the male or female portions and the fasteners are installed between the respective male and female portions to secure the reel in the trolley.

The present invention involves a device for holding and transporting a gas cylinder. The device, a hand truck, has an arm portion having a lip portion mounted thereon. The device also has at least one stabilizing peg mounted to the lip portion with two wheels mounted to the lip portion. The at least one stabilizing peg is sized and configured to engage the stabilizing ring of the gas cylinder placed on the lip portion. Optionally, a hook may be attached to the arm portion such that the hook may engage the gas cylinder. The arm portion may further comprise a handle portion pivotable between a raised position and a collapsed position. The handle portion is lockable in the raised position and the lowered position. The arm portion further comprises a cradle portion sized and configured to engage and stabilize the gas cylinder. The gas cylinder, having a stabilizing ring, may be tilted forward, and the hand truck may then be positioned to engage the cylinder. The gas cylinder may then be tilted back so that the stabilizing ring rests on the lip portion of the hand truck and is engaged by the at least one stabilizing peg. This allows for the tilting of the hand truck and cylinder backward so that the hand truck and cylinder may be wheeled freely.

The propane tank dolly comprises a base platform, a containment wall, a pair of wheels, and a handle. The propane tank dolly may be used to transfer a propane tank from a grill to a vehicle and may also be used to protect both the propane tank and the vehicle while the propane tank is transported to a tank exchange center in the vehicle. The propane tank is placed on the base platform within the containment wall and a lid may be placed onto the top of the containment wall. The handle may be extended from within left and right handle bases to move the propane tank dolly on the pair of wheel. The handle may be collapsed into the left and right handle bases to facilitate placing the propane tank dolly and propane tank into the vehicle.

A beverage keg dolly (BKD) system/method providing for transportation of a beverage keg (BK) in tight quarters is disclosed. The system/method integrates a dolly frame spine (DFS), axial wheel assembly (AWA), radial wheel assembly (RWA), keg alignment handle (KAH), keg engagement hook (KEH), beverage keg cradle (BKC), and vertical rotation handle (VRH). BK transportation uses the KAH to engage/cradle the KEH to a BK within the BKC. Once cradled by the BKC, the BK is lifted off the ground and supported by the AWA via depression of the VRH. The BK axially rotates about the AWA by the VRH until the BK center of gravity transitions a vertical equipoise plane (VEP) extending from the AWA. The weight of the BK is then supported by the AWA and the RWA. Transportation and/or circular rotation of the BK may then be affected by rotation/movement of the VRH.

A charging cart assembly for transporting a refrigerant tank. The charging cart assembly including a frame assembly having a handle at an upper end of the frame assembly and two wheels rotatably mounted to the frame assembly. A swivel plate assembly is mounted to the frame assembly. The swivel plate assembly includes a tank securing device arranged and designed to secure the refrigerant tank to the swivel plate assembly. The swivel plate assembly with the refrigerant tank secured thereto has a generally upright position in which the refrigerant tank is in a generally upright position and has a generally inverted position in which the refrigerant tank is in a generally inverted position.

An apparatus for the movement of a barrel pack containing spooled wire or cable. The apparatus comprising a frame, a handle attached to the frame, a plurality of wheels rotatably attached to the frame, securing structures attached to the frame, the securing structures securing the barrel pack to the frame and a footage counting assembly attached to the handle. The footage counting assembly counts the amount of footage of wire or cable passing through the footage counting assembly.

A tactical transport cart manually navigable by a single human operator over both topographic and hydrographic terrains has a frame, a payload-supporting area on the frame, a pair of wheels or other terrain-engaging transport propulsion members attached to the frame, a handle structure attached to the frame, at least one motor connected in driving relation to the transport propulsion members, a battery for providing motive power to the motor, and a control device connected between the battery and the motor for controlling supply of motive power to the motor, with a switch device mounted on the handle structure for selective actuation and deactuation of the motor. The frame, transport propulsion members and handle structure are cooperatively dimensioned and configured for movement of the cart over ground surfaces of topographic terrains and for partially and fully submerged movement over water-covered surfaces of hydrographic terrains.

The present invention relates to a manually operable carriage and working attachments that may be employed with the carriage. The attachments may include a plow, a logging clamp, or other implements.

A motorized apparatus is provided to lift, tilt and transport heavy tank-like objects such as water heaters. Structurally, the apparatus includes a hitching assembly which can be engaged with an elongated tank to hold it on the apparatus. A guide rail, which is mounted for rotation around a pivot point on a chassis of the apparatus, is also engaged with the hitching assembly. Screw-drives, which are engaged between the guide rail and the hitching assembly, are activated to move the hitching assembly in translation on the guide rail. Also, a screw-drive, which is engaged between the chassis and the guide rail, is activated to rotate the hitching assembly and tank together around the pivot point on the chassis. Further, drive wheels on the apparatus can be selectively activated to transport the entire apparatus.
