Carrier, and related systems and methods
A carrier comprises a frame coupleable with a ladder in a first position and a second position, and a harness that one can wear to hold the frame to himself/herself. In the first position, the frame supports the ladder when one carries the frame. In the second position, the frame and ladder, together, support one when one sits on the frame. The carrier's frame includes a first member that holds the ladder when the frame is in the first position, and a second member that supports a person sitting on the frame when the frame is in the second position. With the ability to position the carrier's frame in a first position and a second position, one can use the carrier to carry a ladder to and from where one will be working without having to use one or both of one's hands. This allows one to use both hands and/or arms to carry one's tools and supplies to where one will be working. Then, later in the day, one can use the same carrier to sit on while taking a break.
Ladder platform attachment
A portable ladder platform attachment, for increasing a person's safety when standing on a ladder, includes a platform having a surface, a forward edge, a rear edge, and opposing side edges, and a rod having a serpentine shape confined within a vertical plane above a centerline extending between the forward and rear edges of the platform. The rod has a first end coupled to the platform closer to the forward edge than to the rear edge, a midsection that extends above and substantially parallel to the surface of the platform along the centerline, and a second end shaped as a hook sized to fit closely about an upper rung of the ladder while the platform sits on a lower rung of the ladder.
Ladder tray assembly
A ladder tray assembly includes a case that has a recess integrated therein. A lid is hingedly coupled to the case for opening and closing the case. A pole is extendable through the case and the pole is inserted into a rung of a ladder thereby mounting the case to the ladder. A case member is coupled to and extends away from the case and a grip is coupled to the case member. The grip extends around the pole when the pole is extended through the case and the grip extends around the rung through which the pole is extended. A pair of storage units is each attachable to the lid when the lid is in an open position to facilitate tools stored in the storage units to be accessible to a user.
Ceiling Ladder, Deep Step and Method
A ceiling ladder having a plurality of sections that can be climbed by a user when in an unfolded position into an attic and that can be folded together into a retracted position to be stored above the ceiling. The ladder has a deep step, which has a width greater than the width of other steps of the ladder, in which is located between about 2-5 feet from the floor when the ladder is in the unfolded position so user can stand on the deep step in place objects into the attic without having to climb into the attic. A method. A deep step.
Ladder foot support apparatus
A ladder foot support apparatus for creating a larger area to support a user's feet includes a base having a base outer side with a pair of parallel slots extending from a base top side through a base bottom side. The pair of slots is configured to receive a rail of a ladder. An upper face of a platform is coupled to the base bottom side and perpendicularly extends away from a base inner side. A lip is coupled to the platform and has a perpendicular portion extending down from a back edge and a return portion curving back up towards a lower face of the platform. The return portion is configured to selectively receive a rung bottom edge of a rung of the ladder.
CEILING TILE LADDER ATTACHMENT DEVICE
The ceiling tile ladder attachment device holds ceiling tiles while a user is working on a ladder to install or replace the tiles in the ceiling, in addition to storing tiles that have to be removed from the ceiling and held for re-installation after performing other maintenance above the tiles. The ceiling tile ladder attachment device includes a rectangular wire rack that attaches to the back side of a ladder. The wire rack has a hook part on the back side. The hook part preferably attaches to the wire rack in two places to prevent the wire rack from swinging or slipping on the ladder. The hook part includes adjustable hook points for different styles and sizes of step ladders. The user can attach the ceiling tile ladder attachment device to the backside of the ladder using the hook part.
AUXILIARY STEP PLATFORM FOR LADDER
An auxiliary platform for a ladder step. The auxiliary platform may include a substantially rectangular and horizontally oriented platform with a platform front negative edge and a platform rear edge hem. The auxiliary platform may further include a substantially flat front surface with a front surface flanged rearward-extending edge, the front surface flanged from the platform front negative edge. Additionally, the auxiliary platform a bracing surface flanged from and extended downward from the platform rear edge hem and oriented substantially parallel to the front surface, and a biasing member removably connected to the bracing surface. When the platform is placed on the ladder step and the biasing member biased against the ladder step and the bracing surface to secure the auxiliary platform to the ladder step.

EXTENDABLE HUNTING STAND WITH MOVABLE PLATFORM
An extendable hunting stand includes a post assembly and a platform assembly. The post assembly includes multiple posts, and includes an outer post having an upper end defining an opening, an inner post telescopically arranged within the outer post. The inner post is configured to extend through the opening at the upper end of the outer post. The platform assembly is movable between a lower end and an upper end of the inner post. A lifting assembly automatically moves the platform assembly along the inner post between the lower end and the upper end of the inner post.
