Apparatus for transporting and dispensing wire or cable from a barrel pack
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.
Hand cart for lifting and supporting an item for holding windable material and associated method
A hand cart and a method of use for lifting a spool of material from a floor includes a wheeled base and a spool-supporting rack section which includes a pair of parallel arm sections having two ends which extend forwardly of the cart. A pair of floor-engaging struts are joined to the arm sections adjacent the forwardly-extending ends thereof, and a pair of pillow blocks having a pair of axially-aligned openings are secured to the arm sections. By pivoting the cart forwardly about the struts from a first position at which the wheels engage the floor to a second position at which the wheels are elevated from the floor, then inserting an axle rod in sequence through one pillow block opening, through the barrel of the item and then through the other pillow block opening and then returning the cart to the first position, the item is lifted above the floor.
PORTABLE WALL BASE COIL UNWINDING DEVICE
A portable wall base coil unwinding device is disclosed herein that comprises a base caddy having a topside and a bottom side; a turntable positioned above the topside of the base caddy; a lazy Susan swivel connector rotatably connecting the base caddy to the turntable; a wall base coil holder centrally positioned on the turntable, wherein the wall base coil holder is sized and configured to receive and retain a coil of wall base; and at least three freely rotatable and swivable wheels positioned on the bottom side of the base caddy. The present invention provides an improved tool and method for unwinding and positioning/installing a wall cove base material along the base of a wall.
Roofing material moving apparatus
A roofing material moving apparatus. This apparatus facilitates loading, unloading, and unrolling a roll of roofing material. Two load supports form a concave shape having a depressed region, a fulcrum end, and a junction end. A pair of legs extends from the fulcrum end of the load supports. A first pair of narrow rollers rotatably affix to a first crossbar. A second pair of narrow rollers rotatably affix to a second crossbar. Two pair of wide rollers rotatably affix to a pair of third crossbars extending between the depressed region of the load supports. The two wheels work together as a fulcrum for movement and pivoting of the apparatus.
CART FOR A REEL
A wheeled cart includes first and second support arms, a cross member, a first roller, a second roller, and a plurality of wheels. Each of the first and second support arms includes a distal end, a proximal end, and a central portion extending between the distal and proximal ends. The cross member is coupled to each of the first support arm and the second support arm such that the cross member extends laterally between the first support arm and the second support arm. The first and second rollers are rotatably coupled to the central portion of the first and second support arms, respectively. Each wheel of the plurality of wheels is rotatably coupled with one of the distal end of the first support arm, the distal end of the second support arm, the proximal end of the first support arm, and the proximal end of the second support arm.
Apparatus for transporting and dispensing wire or cable from a barrel pack
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.
Pipe Unroller
To provide an open coil pipe unroller for use especially with plastic piping or tubing uncoiling. The apparatus includes a frame with wheels, handle, a bearing system centrally disposed, and a turntable mounted with said bearing system to ensure accurate, even rotating of turntable to efficiently and effectively unroll piping without kinking, and an apparatus centrally mounted over the turntable used for holding and aiding in the unrolling of spooled wire while unrolling pipe, all done by a single worker, thereby saving much time and financial loss from paying a worker wages to do what this device is designed to do by itself.
STRAP DISPENSER
A strap dispenser includes a main body and two loading units. The loading units are configured to receive a strapping roll. The loading units are connected with a connecting member and an elastic member. When in use, a strapping roll is first placed on one of the loading units to be guided and located between the loading units through the connecting member and the elastic member. When the strapping roll is pulled, the strap dispenser can prevent the strapping roll from being jammed or pulled out of the loading units due to the action of the centrifugal force.
Cart
The disclosure describes a cart having a frame, a front assembly attached to the frame, a back assembly attached to the frame, and a rotating enclosure assembly attached to the frame. The rotating enclosure assembly includes a removable side and a cage. The removable side is removable from the cage to aid in loading or unloading coils of flexible tubing and can be fixedly attached when installing the flexible tubing coiled around the rotating enclosure assembly. The cart may further include an adjustment mechanism that allows the cart to be adjusted between a mobile state and an immobile state. The back assembly may include one or more immobilizers configured to immobilize the cart into the immobile state.
Device and system to store, maneuver and pay-out material stored on reels
A system to store, maneuver and pay-out material stored on reels, which reels have a central hub and a pair of reel flanges, includes a shaft for positioning through a center of the hub and a pair of flanges. The flanges are mountable to the shaft on opposite sides of the reel. Each flange is mounted to the shaft for rotation independent of the other flange and independent of the shaft. Each flange has a loading assembly for moving the shaft from a loading/unloading position eccentric of the flange to a loaded position concentric with the flange.
