The present invention is generally a load-bearing assembly that may be expanded so as to increase a surface area on which to support different sized loads. The load-bearing assembly may be constructed with multiple T-shaped frames or housings that register with each other forming a unique H-shaped frame design. The two T-shaped housings register with each other in a manner that facilitates the adjustment of the width of the load-bearing assembly. Extensions enclosed within each housing and extendable at terminal ends of each T-shaped housing extend outwardly from their respective terminal ends to adjust a length of the load-bearing assembly. The load-bearing assembly may be constructed of a light, sturdy metal alloy that is lightweight. Applications include moving inventory inside warehouses or moving furniture or appliances from one location to another.

A cart suspension device or system, or a castor equipped cart or platform having such a cart suspension system or device which reduces noise and vibrations when in use. The cart suspension device or system, or castor equipped cart or platform having such a cart suspension system or device utilizes a swing arm or a one-piece spring bracket and a shock pneumatic rubber damper to greatly reduce the noise and vibration inherent in carts rolling over uneven surfaces.

A medical apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a medical device; and a plurality of caster units, disposed below the medical device, for supporting the medical device to be movable, wherein each of the plurality of caster units includes: a wheel part; and a shock absorbing member which is configured to support the wheel part and to absorb the shock applied to the wheel part, wherein the shock absorbing member includes: a wheel fixing member for fixing the wheel part; a body fixing member which surrounds the wheel fixing member and is fixed to the medical device; and a cushioning member which is disposed between the wheel fixing member and the body fixing member and is capable of elastic deformation, wherein the shock absorbing member includes: a first deforming part extending in the vertical direction; and a second deformation part extending, from an end of the first deformation part, in a direction different from the extending direction of the first deformation part.

A furniture cart includes a body portion and at least one support portion. The body portion is provided with a pair of first casters that are arranged at one end in a first direction and are spaced apart in a second direction. The support portion is provided with a first inclined portion and a second inclined portion which support furniture. The body portion and the support portion are at least partially located in a region between the pair of first casters in a plan view so as not to interfere with the pair of first casters of a furniture cart located on the upper side when the furniture carts are stacked.

A cart including a body that has a frame and a caster, and the frame including first and second bars. The cart further includes a basket, first and second couplers attached to the basket such that the first and second couplers removably couple in a snug fit with either the first and second bars respectively, or the second and first bars respectively. The cart further includes first and second latches attached to the basket such that the first and second latches are constructed to reversibly secure the first and second couplers respectively to either the first bar and the second bar, or the second bar and the first bar, and a latch-connecting means having a first end attached to the first latch and a second end attached to the second latch such that the latch-connecting means permits the second latch to be controlled by the first latch.

An apparatus may include an enclosure portion having a width, a depth, and a height, wherein the enclosure portion has a footprint defined by the width and the depth, and wherein the enclosure portion includes a plurality of mounting features that are configured to receive information handling systems along a direction corresponding to the depth. The apparatus may further include a base portion disposed below the enclosure portion and coupled to the enclosure portion. The apparatus may yet further include a plurality of casters coupled to the base portion and mounted in respective positions that are laterally displaced from the base portion such that the positions are outside the footprint of the enclosure portion.

A robotic surgery cart has a pair of rear wheel assemblies and a pair of front wheel assemblies. A brake assembly for the robotic surgery cart includes a gearbox interposed between and connected to the pair of rear wheel assemblies by rotatable shafts. Elongate actuators extend between and interconnect the rotatable shafts and brake mechanisms for the front wheel assemblies. A pedal lever is rotatably coupled to the gearbox and can rotate clockwise by pressing one portion of the pedal lever and can rotate counterclockwise by pressing another portion of the pedal lever. Rotation of the pedal lever causes the gearbox to rotate the rotatable shafts to substantially lock the pair of rear wheel assemblies, and substantially simultaneously causes a translation of the elongate actuators to actuate the brake mechanisms of the front wheel assemblies, such that the wheels of the front and rear wheel assemblies brake substantially simultaneously.

A wheeled stepladder platform apparatus for easily moving a stepladder includes a base frame having a left side, a right side, a back side, and a front side forming a rectangle and a crossmember extending from the back side to the front side in parallel opposition to the left side. Each of the left side, the right side, the back side, the front side, and the crossmember is L-shaped and has a vertical portion and a horizontal portion. The base frame is configured to support a stepladder on the horizontal portion. The base frame comprises a back left section, a front left section, a back right section, a front right section, and a plurality of joiner sections joined with a plurality of hardware through a plurality of mounting apertures. A plurality of wheels is coupled to the base frame.

An auxiliary wheel assembly mounted on a selected portion of a wheelbarrow comprising: several structural members namely a urethane receptacle barrow, a front support and dual swivel wheel assembly, a dual rear support and wheel assembly with a plurality of heavy duty wheels, and a manner to connect these front and rear assemblies and barrow. The various component members are potentially made of various materials and are designed for original equipment offerings or aftermarket additions to currently produced wheel barrows.
