    摘要: A movable storage container for traversing walled pathways, includes: a) a bin having a bottom and sidewalls and an open top, with an imaginary midline that defines a center with a forward section in front of the midline and an aft section behind the midline; b) at least four ground wheels connected to the bin structure adjacent the bin structure bottom for movement along any surface below the bottom of the bin structure, at least two ground wheels being in the forward section and at least two ground wheels being in the aft section; and c) at least four bumper wheels connected to the bin structure for movement along any surface aside the sidewalls, at least two bumper wheels being in the forward section and at least two bumper wheels being in the aft section.

    摘要: A multitrack storage system, includes: a plurality of different sets of tracks having a base and opposing sidewalls wherein each of the tracks constitute a single groove having a predetermined width and having connections for removably connecting the tracks to one another; an adjustable tilting mechanism in contact with the tracks; a bumper at the distal end of each of the sets of tracks; at least two separate storage trains on different tracks with a plurality of wheeled storage containers, with the storage containers nested in the tracks; a train movement mechanism; a proximal end for the plurality of different sets of tracks wherein all of the plurality of different sets of tracks converge at the proximal end at a central terminus. Users may store items in the wheeled storage containers at the central terminus and then move the storage train away for storage.
