Abstract:
A loading frame includes a rectangular u-shaped frame with an opening at one side, forks extendable and retractable between the closed side and the open side of the U-shaped frame, loading frame wheels on one arm of the U-shaped frame, and a truck interface on the other arm of the U-shaped frame. The loading frame wheels and truck interface support travel of the frame in a direction other than the direction of travel of the forks between the open and closed sides of the U-shaped frame.
Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein describe systems and methods associated with light mounting systems. Embodiments may include lighting shelves that are configured to be mounted to a fixed structure, such as to a wall or supports within a room via a cantilever design that is mounted to strut channels. The lighting shelves may be anchored at only a single end to the strut channels, and the lighting shelves may protrude away from the strut channels. The lighting shelves may have a sufficient width and length to cover an entire region of interest below the lighting shelves, which may enable to lighting shelves to uniformly distribute light to plants.
Abstract:
This Yard debris catcher on wheels is for anyone cleaning up Yard clippings, leaves, small branches, or collecting any other type of small debris. The body of the catcher is perforated so if cleanup includes the use of a leaf blower, debris is left in the catcher, yet air is able to pass through. The leaf blower attachment is designed to help reduce the air current coming from a leaf blower so that debris can be gathered into the catcher in a controlled manner.
Abstract:
A new transportation cart is provided that separates each reticle box or container from other reticle boxes contained in the cart. The transportation cart provides additional shock absorption, thus eliminating effects of vibration of the reticles, the transportation cart is equipped with ESD protection and provides improved security to the transported reticles.
Abstract:
A materials handling device includes a chassis, handle shaft pivotally mounted to the chassis for maneuvering the device, two rollers rotationally mounted to the chassis, battery pack supported on the handle shaft, electric motor and gearbox fitted in one roller in-line with a rotational axis thereof, and a controller supported on the chassis and having capacitors charged by the battery pack so as to have available when needed a store of electrical power. The controller is electrically connected between the battery pack and electric motor such that the store of electrical power can be supplied to the electric motor which, via the gearbox, can transmit a high torque driving output, when needed and instantaneously, to the one roller to thereby enable the device to move across a surface and to manipulate and move a heavy load.
Abstract:
A cart for heavy folding tables facilitates the loading, folding, erection, and unloading of one or more conventional folding tables therefrom, by a single person without substantial effort by the person performing the operation. The present cart includes a table receiving bed at such a height that a table tipped with its lower edge resting upon the base is slightly overbalanced toward the lower edge, with nearly all of the weight of the table still resting upon its lower two legs. The base of the cart includes a series of ridges forming pairs of notches for holding the lower edge of tables placed thereon.
Abstract:
Sporting device with an oblong, plate-like foundation (10), the underside of which is basically smooth in the front region (13) and in the rear region (14), and is provided with a runner system in the middle region (15), which includes two curved outside runners (16) with an inner side face which is convex, extending basically longitudinally on the foundation (10), which in each case project adjacent to the long edge of the underside of the foundation (10), two curved inside runners (17) with a convex inner side face and a concave outer side face, extending basically longitudinally along the foundation (10), which are arranged between the outside runners (16) and in each case project from the underside of the foundation (10) longitudinally at a distance to the corresponding outside runner (16), and a stabilizing runner (18), which extends along the middle longitudinal line of the foundation (10) between the inner runners (17), and projects from the underside of the foundation (10), whereby the outside runners (16) are lower than the inside runners (17), which for their part are lower than the stabilizing runner (18), characterized in that the stabilizing runner (18) extends from approximately the center of the foundation (10) up to approximately the rear end of the inside runners (17), the distance between the respective inner side face of the outside runner (16) and the concave outer side surface of the inside runner (17) facing it is shorter in back than in front, and the outside runners (16) are wider than the inside runners (17).
Abstract:
A modifiable rack system can be connected to a vehicle such as a truck or a tractor, and includes a receptacle for holding a variety of items including materials and equipment. The rack system includes a variety of add-ons for organizing and retaining equipment, and a hinged tail gate for easy access. The rack system includes a trailer hitch so a rolling trailer, or the like, can be daisy-chained off the back end. Wheels can be mounted to the rack system so the rack system can used as a rolling cart. The rack system is able to withstand large forces during use because of a tow support spine, and associated structures, which impart tremendous strength.
Abstract:
A car wash caddy is implemented as a compact cart for storing, transporting, and keeping handy various supplies and equipment for use in a variety of applications. The car wash caddy includes a shelf that holds a wash bucket at a convenient hip-level height. A dry storage locker keeps supplies and equipment clean and dry and is slideably mounted beneath the wash bucket shelf. An elevated shelf includes cup holders and keeps supplies and equipment at hand for convenient access. Open topped storage bins are removably offset-mounted in the rear of the car wash caddy and are configured with vents to enable wet materials such as towels and sponges to drip and air dry. The car wash caddy includes two large rear-mounted wheels and two fixed legs A high-mounted handle gives the user leverage to easily maneuver the caddy to the job site and includes integrated water hose retaining slots.
Abstract:
A wheeled hand-cart configured to carry and secure ski equipment and accessories is described. The hand-cart is of the type where a user adjusts an attitude of the hand-cart for rolling travel so as to balance the load about a wheel axis of the hand-cart. The hand-cart includes a load platform extensive enough to carry ski boots as well as a large securable container. Ski mounts joined to the hand-cart carry skis outboard of the load platform at an attitude that provides for ample clearance between the tips of the skis and the user's upper body. The ski-carrying cart may include a voluminous securable container to serve as a mobile ski locker, and locking devices may be provided to secure the skis and the cart. The hand-cart is further configured to partially collapse to a narrow-stance mode adapted for rolling travel in narrow spaces.
