Abstract:
A portable cart for use in a washing chamber for organizing and supporting articles to be washed. The cart is comprised of a generally rectangular, open frame structure comprised of a plurality of elongated structural members. A plurality of the structural members have apertures formed therein. Two planar panels are attached to the frame. The panels are spaced apart and have a plurality of apertures formed therethrough. A plurality of elongated rods are attached to and extend between the panels and are attached to the apertures. The rods define article support areas within the frame structure. One or more support elements are mounted through the apertures in the structural members or the panels. The support elements are dimensioned to support articles. Coasters at one end of the frame member allow rolling movement of the frame member.
Abstract:
A series of transport carts (21) are positioned in side by side relation in fore and aft extending spaced apart rows disposed along a delivery van (22) to leave an aisle (58) between them. The carts have wheel supported frames (28) with bottom supports (131) for the products disposed at a level above the floor of the van and open fronts from which the carts can be unloaded. The carts have rear posts (58) which are disengageably locked in track sections (66, 67) provided in longitudinally spaced relation along the van side walls. Pallets (30) with discs (34) projecting downwardly from the floors of the pallets support the product stacks on the cart bottom supports. A hand truck with a bifurcated nose plate defining disc receiving arms engages under each pallet to enable removal of a pallet and product stack (31) from the cart.
Abstract:
The present invention modular moving carts include removable, attachable shelf storage units which are useful in two, three or four different positions. By changing the relative positions of the units, i.e., standing and facing one direction, they form bookcases/storage areas having a depth to accommodate books, or to form deep shelves to accommodate computers, typewriters, etc., and in a position lying down, to form a container or bin. The cart includes a rectangular base member having four outer edges adapted to support and retain two or more shelf storage units and has a predetermined width, a predetermined length and a predetermined area (based on the width multiplied by the length), with a plurality of wheels attached thereto. There is also at least one first type of shelf storage unit and at least one second type of shelf storage unit included in the present invention. The first shelf storage unit has a top, a bottom, and two opposing vertical side walls situated perpendicularly to the top and bottom, and an open front and an open back. The first shelf storage unit is removably attachable to the rectangular base member. The second shelf storage unit has a top, a bottom, two opposing vertical side walls, a back wall and an open front, and is removably attachable to the rectangular base member. The second shelf storage unit has a first vertical placement position and a second vertical placement position, and at least one horizontal placement position.
Abstract:
A container for the secure storage and transport of items, has a rigid rectangular base with rigid side walls upstanding from opposed edges thereof, a rigid back wall extending generally normally of the base wall between the side walls (preferably centrally of the base) and partition walls pivotally connected along one edge to the back wall. Each partition wall is foldable so that it is held against or parallel to the back wall and extendable from the back wall to be supported on runners on the side walls. The base and each partition wall has a front wall pivotally connected to its edge spaced from the back wall and when the partition walls are extended these front walls are each movable to extend upwardly between the side walls from its associated partition wall to the one thereabove.
Abstract:
The front of the enclosed cart body has an access opening. A fixed panel is situated below the opening. A flexible panel is mounted for movement from a lower position aligned with the fixed panel to an upper position aligned with and covering the opening. A wedge-shaped protrusion on the fixed panel retains the movable panel in the upper position. The movable panel is flexed to become arcuate such that the protrusion is bypassed as the panel is moved from the upper position towards the lower position. The movable panel can be locked in the upper position to the top panel. The top panel may be stationary or may pivot to open the top of the enclosure for facilitated access.
Abstract:
A rollable cart that may be readily assembled from a knock-down condition using conventional fasteners and tools and with a minimum of skill is disclosed. The rollable cart includes a chassis having a pair of pivotable, relatively small front wheels and a pair of larger, rear wheels. A three-sided housing defined by a front, a rear and a side panel is mounted on the chassis. The fourth side is open so that articles may be placed into and taken out of the housing. Side edges of the front and rear panels and the side panel are provided with a plurality of vertically spaced apart L-shaped notches. A plurality of shelves each having front and rear pairs of downwardly opened notches is also provided. The shelves may be adjustably positioned in the housing by transverse front and rear bars on which the shelves rest. The ends of the transverse bars are received in the L-shaped notches of the front, rear and side panels, which L-shaped notches are in registry with one another. The combination of the L-shaped notches and the transverse bars also provide for coupling securement of the front and rear panels to the side panel. The housing may also include a tray at the upper end thereof, a handle at the rear end thereof, hanger members at the forward end thereof and platforms at the lower, forward and rear ends thereof.
Abstract:
