FLOATING HITCH AND CASTER-TRAILER TRANSPORT SYSTEM
20180072360 · 2018-03-15 · ·

The apparatuses and methods disclosed herein may be towed forwards and backwards by a motor vehicle. Thus, implementations of the transport device disclosed herein may have functions akin to a goose-neck trailer, yet may provide easier, more efficient and/or more cost effective transportation and loading functions over prior art trailer transportation systems. Furthermore, in some implementations, the transport device disclosed herein includes at least three, non-aligned wheels and therefore can function like a cart. Still further, in some implementations, the transport device disclosed herein can have the functions of a wagon, yet still back and maneuver like a trailer. In some implementations, the transport device includes a frame for positioning hay for feeding live stock.

Horse trailer corral
20180020634 · 2018-01-25 ·

A portable corral that is hinged to the side of a horse trailer. The horse corral consists of fence panel sections that are stored flush against the side of a horse trailer and, by use of a hinge system, fold outwardly to form a corral. Two fence sections are hingedly coupled to a trailer side. An additional fence section, hingedly coupled to one of the trailer mounted fence sections, form a square or rectangular corral. One of the fence sections may include a gate for ease of entry and exit to the corral. When the corral is not in use, the fence sections are rotated back against the side wall of the trailer for storage. Adjustable feet are used for leveling of the fence sections and are retractable for storage.
