TRAILER WITH SWIVEL CASTERS
A trailer for a motor vehicle includes a bed, a trailer tongue, a tongue frame, and a plurality of swivel frames. The bed has a front end and a rear end, and is configured to receive a load to be transported by the trailer. The trailer tongue is configured to be rigidly coupled to a hitch, wherein the hitch is rigidly affixed to a motor vehicle. The tongue frame operable couples the trailer tongue to the bed proximate the front end in a laterally rigid manner, such that the bed is substantially inhibited from lateral movement with respect to the hitch. Each of the plurality of swivel frames is operably rotatably coupled to the bed, and includes at least one wheel rotatably attached thereto.
Passenger trailer apparatus
A passenger trailer apparatus for towing a passenger behind a mobility scooter is provided. The mobility scooter has a tow bar or hitch. The passenger trailer apparatus comprises a trailer frame and an axle mounted to and through the trailer frame. A tire is rotatably, releasably mounted to each end of the axle. The platform has a top surface and a bottom surface with the bottom surface of the platform mounted to the trailer frame. A chair assembly is mounted to the top surface of the platform with the chair assembly sized and shaped for receiving a passenger. A receiver bar having a first end and a second end is provided. The first end of the receiver bar is connected to the platform and the second end of the receiver bar capable of being releasably connected to the tow bar or hitch of the mobility scooter. The passenger trailer apparatus provides secure, reliable performance, quick assembly and breakdown, and easy transport and storage.
Cart suspension system
A cargo dolly having a suspension assembly incorporated therein, wherein the suspension assembly is adapted to maintain the dolly at a prescribed height relative to an underlying surface. Thus, as cargo is loaded onto the dolly, and subsequently unloaded from the dolly, the dolly will substantially remain at the same height, which facilitates use of the dolly with standardized loading docks, such as loading docks associated with aircraft.
COLLAPSIBLE HUNTING BLIND APPARATUS
A collapsible hunting blind apparatus comprises a floor member, a roof member, and a plurality of walls. The roof member includes angled surfaces and side walls coupled to the angled surfaces. The plurality of walls are hingedly couplable to the floor member such that the plurality of walls hingedly fold inward toward opposite walls and atop the floor member. The roof member is couplable to the floor member while the plurality of walls are folded atop the floor member.
VEHICLE HITCH MOUNTING TRAILER
A trailer is disclosed, including a tongue portion configured for connection to a tow hitch of a vehicle, and a spine portion connected to the tongue portion. The trailer further includes a frame structure with a plurality of lower crossbar members transversely connected to the spine portion. The lower crossbar members define a first cargo support level. A plurality of upper crossbar structures are connected to the frame structure above the first cargo support level, and define a second cargo support level elevated above the first cargo support level.
Portable hoist assembly
A portable hoist assembly for lifting, relocating and lowering loads includes a trailer that is both wheeled and configured to couple to a vehicle. A power module, a lift arm and an actuator are coupled to the trailer. The actuator is operationally coupled to the power module and the lift arm. A fastener is operationally coupled proximate to a second end of the lift arm. The fastener is configured to couple the lift arm to a load. The actuator is positioned to motivate the lift arm and the fastener upwardly and downwardly. The load that is coupled to the lift arm is elevated from a first resting position to a raised position, repositioned by movement of the trailer, and lowered from the raised position to a second resting position.
Transshipment implement for agricultural products
A transshipment implement for agricultural products, comprising a wheeled cart of the kind towable by a tractor; a complementary structure assembled over the cart; a dumper supported over the cart which has the ends of the upper edge of one of its side walls hinged to the corresponding points of the complementary structure, wherein it is tilted at an angle slightly greater than 90; and an unloading and cleaning transshipment belt with an edge hinged in adjacent alignment to the same hinging edge of the dumper. The transshipment belt moves from a vertical position to a horizontal position, wherein, in the first position, the belt remains juxtaposed to the corresponding wall of the dumper, being embedded for the transport of the implement, while the second position is an unloading position for movement of the product received in the dumper to another receptacle, such as the compartment of a larger transportation vehicle.
Towing systems
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.
Bike rack trailer for transporting bicycles or other cargo
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.
