The present invention contemplates an apparatus for, and methods of, conveniently transporting cargo by holding cargo securely in a way using a transport apparatus that can be coupled to a vehicle, for easy and convenient transport of the cargo. The invention contemplates a transport apparatus that is capable of horizontal, vertical, telescoping, and/or rotational collapse and/or expansion. The invention contemplates wheels on a collapsed transport apparatus that make moving from place to place very convenient, whether the transport apparatus is expanded or collapsed. Embodiments can be used to secure and transport cargo such as bicycles. Embodiments of the invention allow coupling of a transport apparatus to a vehicle by use of a standard ball joint and/or trailer hitch. Other embodiments could comprise a trailer connection attachment, which can be used to couple a transport apparatus to a vehicle in cases where the vehicle lacks its own trailer hitch.

There is provided an ATV accessory that is easily coupled to an ATV for carrying or transporting humans and animals in rough terrain or in snowy terrain. The present ATV accessory also provides for a kit to change the mechanism of moving forward through various terrain from wheels or tires of different sizes to ski-like members to allow for transport through snow or icy trails or rough terrain

A housing and trailer system comprising a trailer and a housing. The housing includes a lower housing and an upper housing and may be positioned on friction-reducing members that reduce friction between the housing and trailer. The reduction of friction facilitates the housing to slide more efficiently on the trailer. A safety lever and linkage system operates to safely move roof support structures and raise/lower the upper housing. An adjustable cargo system is attached to a roof on the housing. The adjustable cargo system is adjustable to receive and/or secure different sizes of cargo.

The present invention relates to a cart (1) for use as a bicycle trailer (1) or as a handcart (1) with a frame (10) with a pair of wheels (13) and with a loading surface (14) and with a foldable drawbar (3) with a drawbar body (33) which is designed to be connected to a bicycle in a first position and to be guided by a user's hand in a second position. The cart (1) is characterized in that the foldable drawbar (3) has a drawbar holder (30) arranged on the frame (10), the drawbar holder (30) being designed with the drawbar body (33) in the first position and in the second position.

The present invention also relates to a cart (1) for use as a bicycle trailer (1) or as a handcart (1) with a frame (10) with a pair of wheels (13) and with a loading surface (14) and with a fold-out stand (2). The cart (1) is characterized in that the fold-out stand (2) has a stand holder (20) which is arranged on the frame (10) and a stand element (24) which is held in a foldable manner by the stand holder (20), the stand holder (20) having a recess (21) within which the stand element (24) can be hinged between a folded state and an unfolded state.

A portable towing system for a motorcycle or similar vehicle, such as a trike, the frame of which can be lowered to ground level to facilitate loading of the motorcycle or similar vehicle by pushing or riding the vehicle onto the frame without risk of the vehicle falling off the sides of a steeply inclined ramp. The towing system may be assembled, raised, lowered, and disassembled by a single person, if desired. The raising and lowering of the frame is effected by a lifting and lowering mechanism connected with the wheel assemblies.

An electric vehicle which operates from a rechargeable battery. The rechargeable battery is contained within an enclosure such that an airspace exists between the rechargeable battery and an interior wall of the enclosure. An aerosol container containing an aerosol electrical insulator communicates with the interior of the enclosure so that when said aerosol container is discharged, the aerosol electrical insulator is released within the airspace to dampen any fire occurring with the rechargeable battery.
