A cart for transporting objects has a base and a first end wall and an opposite second end wall extending from the base. A sidewall extends from the base and between the end walls such that the base, the first end wall, the second end wall, and the sidewall define an interior space of the cart. A hinge couples a door to the first end wall such that the door can be pivoted into different positions. One or more arms extend into the interior space to support and retain objects therein.

A movable lifting device has a lifting and fixing device (10) and a moving device (20). One end of the lifting and fixing device is connected to the moving device, and the other end thereof is connected to a cargo to be shifted (30). The free rotation of the lifting and fixing device converts rotary motion into linear motion for lifting the cargo to-be-shifted. The movable lifting device has a simple and flexible structure, is easy to operate, and combines the functions of shifting and lifting. It can be operated anytime and anywhere, and is suitable for a wide range of applications. The movable lifting device reduces labor intensity, saves manpower and material resources, is cheaper to build, and easy to operate.

The present invention relates to a serving apparatus. According to one aspect of the invention, there is provided a serving apparatus, comprising: a driving unit; a body unit connecting to the driving unit and having a top side and an interior, wherein at least a part of a lateral side of the body unit is open; and a body container disposed in the interior of the body unit, wherein food or food containers are placed at the body container and the top side.

A versatile transport rack uses a pair of end frames that are each pivotally attached to a connector frame on opposing sides thereof thereby forming an article support device. Each frame has casters removably attached thereto. One or more vertical frames and/or one or more relatively flat base plates are removably attached to an upper surface of the versatile transport rack. Hinge pin receiver pairs are attached to the vertical frame and receive door pin pairs of a vehicle door.

An apparatus and methods for a convertible service and recycling cart for food and beverage service and waste sorting, compaction and storage are disclosed. An example cart apparatus includes a base, a first sidewall and a second sidewall each coupled to the base and a top support coupled to the first sidewall and the second sidewall. At least one opening is defined in the top support and a lid is removably coupled to the top support. The apparatus also includes at least one container that is configured to be removably coupled to the at least one opening in the top support.

Cradle assemblies for supporting a door of an aircraft to facilitate servicing the door, and arrangements and methods for the same are provided. In one example, a cradle assembly includes a base and a cradle support subassembly pivotably coupled to the base. The cradle support subassembly is configured to support an outer section of the door.

A rail assembly for maintaining trays for temporary storage. The rail assembly features a plurality of support members and a plurality of post attachment members. The plurality of support members include a plurality of raised edges and a plurality of shelf members, each of the plurality of shelf members extend from a corresponding raised edge of the plurality of raised edges. The plurality of post attachment members extend outwardly from the plurality of support members. Each of the plurality of post attachment members includes a first connection arm configured for attachment to a first side of a vertical post and a second connection arm configured for attachment to a second side of the vertical post.

A foldable transport cart for planar materials for transporting planar materials includes material support frame pivotably coupled to a central frame, wherein the material support frame is configured to lock into each of a plurality of orientations including a vertical orientation and a horizontal orientation. The material support frame has a support surface configured to support a planar material when the material support frame is in the horizontal position and a pair of stop plates configured to support the planar material when the material support frame is in the vertical position. Each of a pair of caster frames is pivotably coupled to the bottom of the central frame and are moveable between a deployed position and a folded position. A collapsed configuration which facilitates storage results when the material support frame is vertically oriented and each of the pair of caster frames is in its folded position.

A device for use in lifting, transporting and installing sheet material has a base, wheels on which the base is supported, a mast that extends upwardly from the base, a carriage that is in engagement with the mast, a supporting head that is mounted to the carriage, and a lifting mechanism to provide support to the carriage in the longitudinal direction of the mast. The wheels include rear wheels that are connected to the rear of the base in a manner that permits steering of the device during movement across a surface, and a front wheel set that is connected to the front of the base. The front wheel set includes a wheel to each side of the device, and the wheels of the front wheel set are rotatable about a common axis. The connection of the mast to the base is such that the mast is rotatable relative to the base about a rotational axis. The device further has an actuator that is operable to change the angular position of the mast relative to the base. The supporting head is configured to support sheet material above the surface.

A transportation assembly structured and configured to facilitate the storage, transportation, and use (e.g., viewing) of a television or other display device is presented herein. The transportation assembly includes a positioning assembly structured to movably mount or support the display device to a main body. In particular, the positioning assembly includes a linear actuator as well as guide rails to selectively position the display device between a raised position and a lowered position. A plurality of collapsible legs are provided to allow the assembly to be either transported on wheels while the legs are extended or placed into a vehicle while the legs are collapsed.
