Foldable golf trolley
A foldable golf trolley comprising a chassis; at least one electrically powered rear drive wheel; a wheel support arm mounted to the front of the chassis supporting a front wheel; a stabilizer arm mounted to the rear of the chassis supporting a stabilizer wheel; a main support mounted to the chassis and a handle mounted to the main support; wherein the main support, the wheel support arm and the stabilizer arm are rotatably mounted to the chassis and movable between an operative configuration and a folded configuration; and gears connecting the stabilizer arm and main support, wherein rotation of the main support between the operative configuration and the folded configuration cause rotation of the stabilizer arm between the operative configuration and the folded configuration.
Separable Wheel Pack Assembly
A wheel pack assembly includes a pack portion wearable by a user, a wheeled portion removably coupled to the pack portion, and a power assist system. The pack portion includes a first interfit element. The wheeled portion includes a frame, a second interfit element coupled to frame and configured to removably couple with the first interfit element of the pack portion, and a first wheel set coupled to the frame and disposed at a location spaced apart from a rear end of the wheeled portion. The power assist system includes a motor mechanically coupled to the first wheel set, at least one sensor coupled to the at least one of the first interfit element and the second interfit element, and a controller configured to operate the motor based on feedback from the at least one sensor.
Powered Hand Truck Assembly
A powered hand truck assembly for maneuvering loads in tight spaces includes a first housing, which is engaged to a frame. A handle is engaged to and extends upwardly from the frame. A lift module is engaged to and is electively extensible from the first housing. A load can be positioned on a tray, which is operationally engaged to the lift module. Tift module can selectively elevate the tray and the load. A pair of drive wheels, which are positioned singly on opposed facets of the first housing, is rotationally engaged to the first housing. A pair of drive motors is engaged to and positioned in the first housing. Each drive motor is operationally engaged to a respective drive wheel. The drive motors and the drive wheels can motivate the powered hand truck assembly and the load across a surface and can affect 360° turns.
HANDCART
A handcart is provided that includes a frame, wheels, and a motor that drives the rotation of the wheels. The number of wheels is two. The handcart includes a platform coupled to the frame, including a base and a vertical structure. It allows providing a self-propelled handcart with the two wheels and a variable length chassis that is as simple, safe to use, and inexpensive.
HANDCART
A handcart may include a prime mover, a first ground-contact part, a second ground-contact part, a clutch mechanism configured to switch between a transmission state and a non-transmission state, a differential mechanism configured to switch between a non-locking state and a locking state, a switching unit configured to switch a state of the clutch mechanism and a state of the differential mechanism; and an operation unit. The switching unit may be configured to: in response to a user’s first operation, switch the state of the clutch mechanism between the transmission state and the non-transmission state without switching the state of the differential mechanism, and in response to a user’s second operation, switch the state of the differential mechanism between the non-locking state and the locking state without switching the state of the clutch mechanism.
Electronic shopping cart
A rechargeable motorized personal shopping and utility cart. Designed for elderly or infirm consumers who find it difficult to pull or push a manual utility cart, particularly on inclines, the electronic shopping cart would propel itself on demand. Designed in every aspect for the ultimate in convenience, the front of the unit would also feature an easy-access swing-open door which makes the loading and unloading of the electronic shopping cart far easier, even for extra tall items.
Motorized wheel accessory for a stroller
The motorized wheel accessory for a stroller is an after-market device that is configured to interface with a stroller in order to mobilize the stroller without the need for an end user to actually push said stroller. The motorized wheel accessory includes a frame that is configured to attach onto a rear axle of a stroller. The frame includes a power member that is wired to a motor. The motor is in mechanical connection with a pair of wheels. The pair of wheels propel the stroller. The frame may be adjustable to accommodate differently-sized strollers.
Tactical transport cart for manual navigation over both topographic and hydrographic terrains
A tactical transport cart manually navigable over both topographic and hydrographic terrains has a frame, a payload support on the frame, a hard point of attachment or connection on the frame or the payload support, a pair of wheels or other terrain-engaging transport propulsion members attached to the frame, a handle structure attached to the frame, at least one motor connected in driving relation to the transport propulsion members, a battery for providing motive power to the motor, and a control device connected between the battery and the motor for controlling supply of motive power to the motor. The frame, transport propulsion members and handle structure are cooperatively dimensioned and configured for movement of the cart over ground surfaces of topographic terrains and for partially and fully submerged movement over water-covered surfaces of hydrographic terrains.
Carrying apparatus
A carrying apparatus provides a self-powered, rechargeable, technologically adaptable transport vehicle, such as a stroller. The apparatus includes efficient seating and storage capacities for efficiency items, such as pertinent baby supplies. Because the apparatus is self-powered, the physical stress of carrying at least one item is reduced. Furthermore, the apparatus uses technology to maintain perpetual power for operation, and to regulate and monitor the propulsion of the apparatus during transport. The apparatus may be pushed or pulled in multiple directions at varying velocities. The apparatus includes braking and accelerating capacities. A frame portion supports a seat portion, such as a buckled baby seat; a storage portion, such as a cargo mesh. A rechargeable power source powers a motor that turns a drive shaft for propulsion. Brakes position at the wheels. A control portion provides a display and levers for accelerating and decelerating.
Drive unit
A drive unit includes a drive wheel, a prime mover, a coupling mechanism and a support frame. The coupling mechanism includes first and second coupling members. The first coupling member includes a first opposed surface. The second coupling member includes a second opposed surface opposed to the first opposed surface. The second coupling member is attached to the first coupling member in a detachable manner. The support frame is attached to the coupling mechanism. The support frame supports the drive wheel and the prime mover. The first coupling member includes a first vertical groove and a first transverse groove on the first opposed surface. The second coupling member includes a second vertical groove and a second transverse groove on the second opposed surface. The second vertical groove is opposed to the first vertical groove. The second transverse groove is opposed to the first transverse groove.
