Cart conveyor assembly
A cart assembly system for handling laundry in a facility, the system including first and second support structures each having arms extending outwardly therefrom. The arms support drive wheels, which in turn support a tow line extending between the first and second support structures. The system may include a drop cord extending downwardly from the tow line and engaging a slot on a tow cart to attach the tow cart to the tow line. The system may also include a mast extending from the cart to the tow line, the mast supporting a clamp assembly for coupling the cart to the tow line. A controller drives one or both of drive wheels to move the tow line and the cart along the line pathway, where the cart transports laundry throughout the facility.

Skiing accessory
A skiing accessory comprises a support structure, a mounting arrangement and a lift member. The support structure is configured to support a user relative to a body of water. The mounting arrangement is configured to connect the support structure to a ski boom. The lift member is arranged on the support structure and configured to engage the body of water such that the support structure is raised or lifted, relative to the body of water, by the lift member as the accessory is towed. The mounting arrangement permits the support structure to be pivotally connected to the ski boom about an axis that is generally parallel to the ski boom.
Portable line ascending device for sliding or roller sports
A portable line ascending device to enable users to ascend an incline on sliding or rolling sporting by travelling up an anchored line with the line ascending device. The device includes a mount, a plurality of sheaves connected to the mount, a motor driving the plurality of sheaves, and a power supply to supply electricity to the motor. The plurality of sheaves are configured to enable a line to be wound around at least a portion of each sheave of the plurality of sheaves and operable to engage the line to pull the line through the plurality of sheaves such that the line ascending device travels along the line.
