Fan-equipped dual-purpose grain cart for transporting and drying grain
A dual-purpose agricultural cart for transporting and conditioning grain or other particulate material. The cart features a transportable frame, a holding container for receiving and holding the particulate material, a fan, and one or more airflow channels each having an inlet fed by the fan and at least one outlet positioned to open into the holding container at an elevation at or proximate a lower end of the holding container. The particulate material is aerated via upward fan-driven airflow from the outlet(s) of the one or more airflow channels. The same cart used to transport grain between a combine harvester and road transport vehicle during harvest can be used after harvest, or during harvest delays, the dry harvested grain before long term storage or long-distance transport.

Multi-functional utility cart and method of use
A device and method of using a Multi-functional utility cart comprising a base, an axle and wheel assembly, a lower structure, and an upper structure, wherein said axle and wheel assembly are attached to base, base is pivotally attached to lower structure, two upper structural vertical tube frames are slide ably connected to two lower structural vertical tube frames, a rotational tray connected to the upper vertical structural tube frames, a foldable base is connected to the two lower structural vertical tube frames; wherein a user elects to collapse said multi-functional utility cart for easy storage and folding, wherein user would minimize the size of said collapsible frame by sliding two upper vertical tubes into two lower vertical tube frames and user would fold up said base; and wherein said multi-functional utility cart has four types of wheel designs and locations that can be utilized for different tasks.
HAND CARTS TRANSPORTING GAS CYLINDERS
The present invention involves a device for holding and transporting a gas cylinder. The device, a hand truck, has an arm portion having a lip portion mounted thereon. The device also has at least one stabilizing peg mounted to the lip portion with two wheels mounted to the lip portion. The at least one stabilizing peg is sized and configured to engage the stabilizing ring of the gas cylinder placed on the lip portion. Optionally, a hook may be attached to the arm portion such that the hook may engage the gas cylinder. The arm portion may further comprise a handle portion pivotable between a raised position and a collapsed position. The handle portion is lockable in the raised position and the lowered position. The arm portion further comprises a cradle portion sized and configured to engage and stabilize the gas cylinder. The gas cylinder, having a stabilizing ring, may be tilted forward, and the hand truck may then be positioned to engage the cylinder. The gas cylinder may then be tilted back so that the stabilizing ring rests on the lip portion of the hand truck and is engaged by the at least one stabilizing peg. This allows for the tilting of the hand truck and cylinder backward so that the hand truck and cylinder may be wheeled freely.
Convertible beach chair and transport device
A wheeled device that converts between a multi-mode beach chair and a standard vertical dolly. It can also be used as a flat 2-wheeled wagon. A rigid frame includes at least two parts coupled by hinges, a first part (long part) that can fold to different lengths, and a second part (short part). There is a swiveling top handle on the end of the long part, and a swiveling bottom handle on the end of the short part. In a long chair mode, the long part is fully extended; in the short chair mode, it is folded and In the dolly mode, the short part forms the bottom of the dolly.
Tile laying device using tiltable wheeled frame
A tile laying device has a main frame supported on wheels for rolling movement along a ground surface. A pendulum frame is supported on the main frame to be freely suspended from the main frame while being adjustable in height relative to the ground surface by tilting the main frame about the axis of the wheels. Suction cups on the pendulum frame allow a tile to be coupled to the tiles using vacuum pressure from a vacuum pump on the main frame. The suction cups can be shifted laterally in a direction of the pendulum axis relative to the main frame to assist in aligning a tile on the pendulum frame with a desired placement location for the tile.
Foldable Vehicle and Wheel-Frame Locking Assembly Thereof
Provided are a wheel-frame locking assembly of a foldable vehicle, and a foldable vehicle using said wheel-frame locking assembly. The wheel-frame locking assembly comprises a fork (1), said fork being provided with a first pin hole; a wheel frame; the end of the connection between the wheel frame (1) and the fork is provided with a sleeve (2); By means of the sleeve (2), the wheel frame is rotatably sleeved on the fork (1); the sleeve (2) is provided with a second pin hole fitting the first pin hole, and when the wheel frame is opened to a use state, the second pin hole aligns with the first pin hole, a positioning member arranged on the fork (1) and preventing the wheel frame from falling off the fork (1); a lock pin (6) fitted with the first pin hole and the second pin hole and used for locking and unlocking the wheel frame to and from the fork (1). The wheel frame locking assembly enables a foldable vehicle to be further folded, and the wheel frame rotates around the fork (1), then the folding of the wheel frame itself is accomplished, thus the space occupied by the foldable vehicle after folding is further reduced effectively improving the portability of the foldable vehicle.

Folding foot-kick for hand truck
Disclosed is a hand truck with a foot kick that rotates to be placed in a more compact position. The foot kick can include pins that fit within slots to move between the open and closed positions. The hand truck can therefore include a foot kick but still be compact enough to fit through hallways, staircases, and the like.
