Pulley assemblies for use in modular utility systems
A counterbalanced vertical track assembly which may be configured with three types of pulley support assemblies are herein disclosed. The first type of pulley support assembly has a pair of opposed pulley modules having an elongate structural element interposed the two pulley modules which are attached to end plates at both ends of the elongate structural element. The second type of pulley support assembly has a pair of opposed pulley modules which include male end connectors for demountable engagement of the pulley modules with another module of the system with female ends. The third type of pulley support assembly has a pair of opposed pulley modules wherein the modules' pulley brackets are repositionable to varying angular orientations by alternating screw mount positions selected on mount components at opposite ends of an elongate structural element.
WORKSPACE SYSTEM AND COMPONENTS AND METHOD FOR THE USE THEREOF
A cart assembly including a frame having a horizontal worksurface, a plurality of vertical support members extending upwardly from the horizontal worksurface and an upper rail spaced above the horizontal worksurface and connected to the vertical support members. The rail defines an opening at one end thereof. A screen is moveable between at least first and second positions. The screen is moveable through the opening and is supported in an interior space of the frame in the first position. The screen is disposed outside the interior space in the second position.
Workspace system and components and method for the use thereof
A workspace system includes different base components, different accessory interfaces and different accessories. Different accessory interfaces may be fixed to different base components, and different accessories may be releasably engaged by different, or the same accessory interfaces. The same accessories may be engaged by different accessory interfaces. The base components and accessories may be reconfigured to define different workspaces. Methods of assembling and reconfiguring the workspaces are also provided.
TROLLEY FOR SUPPORTING AND WEIGHING A CONTAINER
A trolley, for example for a supermarket, including at least one chassis, a load-bearing structure supported by the chassis, a suspension structure supported by the load-bearing structure configured to suspend at least one container. The trolley includes at least one measurement device at least partially carried by the suspension structure and for measuring at least one parameter relating to the weight of the at least one container when the container is suspended from the suspension structure.
Workspace system and components and method for the use thereof

The rail defines an opening at one end thereof. A screen is moveable between at least first and second positions. The screen is moveable through the opening and is supported in an interior space of the frame in the first position. The screen is disposed outside the interior space in the second position.
Apparatus for suspending radio-opaque curtains
An apparatus for suspending one or more items is disclosed. The apparatus includes a vertical back plate, a vertical front plate, and a connector plate for connecting the vertical front plate to the vertical back plate. The apparatus further comprises an angulated base member attached to the vertical front plate at an obtuse angle. An arched hanging member for receiving one or more articles to be hanged is provided on the apparatus, the arched hanging member comprising a rounded ball end to avoid tears and perforations to the one or more suspended items.
PULLEY ASSEMBLIES FOR USE IN MODULAR UTILITY SYSTEMS
A counterbalanced vertical track assembly which may be configured with three types of pulley support assemblies are herein disclosed. The first type of pulley support assembly has a pair of opposed pulley modules having an elongate structural element interposed the two pulley modules which are attached to end plates at both ends of the elongate structural element. The second type of pulley support assembly has a pair of opposed pulley modules which include male end connectors for demountable engagement of the pulley modules with another module of the system with female ends. The third type of pulley support assembly has a pair of opposed pulley modules wherein the modules' pulley brackets are repositionable to varying angular orientations by alternating screw mount positions selected on mount components at opposite ends of an elongate structural element.
APPLIANCE FOR THE TRANSPORT OF BIOMEDICAL DEVICES
An appliance for the transport of biomedical devices. The appliance comprises at least one load-bearing structure, movement device/unit/component/structure of the load-bearing structure with respect to a reference surface and at least one supporting top of at least one biomedical device associated with the load-bearing structure, where the load-bearing structure comprises first removable hooking device/unit/component/structure to the movement device/unit/component/structure, the first hooking device/unit/component/structure being movable between an engagement configuration, wherein the load-bearing structure is constrained to the movement device/unit/component/structure, and a release configuration wherein the load-bearing structure is released and removable from the movement device/unit/component/structure.
Wagon having article transport carriages
A wagon is disclosed having a basket by which to carry a first article, a basket support rack on which the basket sits, a first carriage connected to the wagon below the basket by which to carry a second article, and a second carriage connected to the wagon behind the basket by which to carry a third article. The first carriage includes a pair of brackets, each of which having first and second C-shaped bracket arms being pivotally connected to and depending downwardly from one side of the basket support rack. The C-shaped bracket arms are arranged in spaced facing alignment to carry the second article therebetween. The second carriage includes a flat platform having a pair of engagement hooks extending therefrom. The engagement hooks of the platform are detachably connected in surrounding engagement with respective platform retainer clips that are connected to the rear of the basket support rack.
