Abstract:
A pivotal handle for a food service table is disclosed. The handle includes two elongated, parallel curved bar members. Each member has an outwardly extending arm and an outwardly extending leg. The legs have means for pivotably attaching the handle to the underside of the table. In its operative position, the handle is pivoted upwardly so that the arms are located above the top of the table. Locking means such as a quick release pin is inserted into an opening formed in the leg which locks the handle in place. When the table is ready to be used as a dining table or to be stored, the pin is removed so that the handle may now be rotated downwardly and stored under the table. A spring clip may be attached to the underside of the table which secures the handle in place when the handle is in the stored position.
Abstract:
A medical cart is described and includes a work platform having a work surface and at least one compartment, a base, and a height adjustment mechanism for adjusting the height of the work platform relative to the base. A medication module is described and includes a plurality of compartments. The medical cart can be joined with a medication module. In addition, a plurality of medication modules can joined to form a train. The medical cart and medication module can be used collectively and individually in a variety of methods for transferring medicine.
Abstract:
A handcart for addressing the specific equipment needs of emergency responders such as fire fighters, police, hazardous material technicians, forensic technicians, explosive ordinance disposal technicians, and others. Differential steering and sizing of a pull handle allow the trailer to fit within a stairwell and an elevator, and allow the handcart to be used in buildings such as by firefighters. An optional pressurized gas bottle rack may be installed by such firefighters to extend their working time in a building fire. Large tires avoid sinking into soft ground. A handbrake automatically keeps the handcart in place on uneven ground. A foldable wash table engageable to a keel drawbar receptacle enables hazardous material decontamination, especially in conjunction with a water reservoir and a splash guard protecting the handcart. For explosive ordinance disposal, a disrupter arm may be mounted to the keel drawbar receptacle, especially with a blast shield attached to the rear of the handcart for personnel protection.
Abstract:
A shopping cart has a wheeled base, a rear frame projecting upwardly from the rear end of the base with a handle at its upper end, a basket having a rear end secured to the frame and projecting forwardly from the frame at a spacing above the base, and a fixed child seat secured to the rear frame. The basket is closed by a pivoted rear gate at its rear end. Two or more carts can be nested together by pushing the front wall of the basket of a first cart through the rear frame beneath the fixed child seat of a second cart, simultaneously pivoting the rear gate upwardly to allow the basket of the first cart to enter the basket of the second cart. The side walls are inclined upwardly from the child seat to the front end of the basket.
Abstract:
The invention recites a child carrier comprising a seat portion including a seat, a backrest, and a floor. The child carrier further includes a substantially rigid body, at least partially surrounding and supporting the seat portion. The rigid body also includes substantially solid side surfaces and at least partially defines a panel. In addition, the child carrier provides a plurality of wheels supporting the body, and an electronic device supported by the body.
Abstract:
A mobile load carrier comprises a castor mounting arrangement comprising two or swivellable castors mounted on a first member (7), characterised in that said first member (7) is rotatably attached to a second member or member (5), along a fixed, substantially horizontal axis (6) substantially perpendicular to the primary direction of travel of the mobile load carrier, said second member(s) (7) being attached to, or forming part of, the structure of the mobile load carrier, such that any movement of the castors' swivel axes, relative to the chassis, is synchronous, with movement only being possible via the rotatable attachment of the first member (7) to the second member(s) (5). Preferably the rotation is load dependent with the load dependency optionally being provided by one or more biasing members (10).
Abstract:
A wheel-mounted, heavy-duty wire rack system for shipping, storage, and delivery of environmental suits and other garments includes a multi-shelf wire rack mounted on a sturdy wheeled base. The base is a steel frame with four casters and a pair of forklift guides attached to the underside of the frame. The multi-shelf wire rack is attached to the topside of the frame, and includes four upright posts and a plurality of reinforced wire shelves attached to and extending between the posts. Further, a set of wire mesh panels is attached to the posts and shelves to enclose the sides of the wire rack, thereby forming a single front opening for each shelf. Fabric covers are positioned over the multi-shelf wire rack for preventing items from falling out during shipping and handling. Additionally, fabric shelf dividers or bins are positioned on the shelves for storage and organization of smaller items.
Abstract:
A tray having prestressed sections including a domed shaped bottom and a merchandising window. The window includes a surface parallel to the dome shaped bottom. When the tray is subjected to a load, the dome and the surface of the merchandising window become substantially planar. The front of the tray also includes vertically extending corners that are angled inwardly toward one another from an outer top end to an inner lower end when the tray is empty. When the tray is loaded, the corners deflect toward a vertically extending parallel relationship with respect to one another. The corners adjacent the rear of the tray are fixed relative to one another. A stackable dolly supports stackable trays for allowing movement of stacked trays from one location to another on casters or wheels connected to the stackable dolly. The dollys are stackable with respect to one another when not in use. Each dolly can have recessed notches to receive the casters or wheels of an adjacent upper stacked dolly. The recessed notches can include a ramp extending in a direction aligned with one another and/or can be positioned to extend in a direction at offset angular orientations with respect to one another for improved stacking stability of the dollys.
Abstract:
A dump cart sustainer with a wheeled platform is provided for receiving, holding, transporting, and dumping a large heavy drum holding building materials such as concrete. The sustainer is structured to allow easy release, disposal, and replacement of the drum by receiving the drum in an apertured basket. The apertured basket avoids accumulation of any overflow from the drum and facilitates easy manual grappling and lifting by allowing hands and fingers to grasp the basket. The sustainer has a locking brake, drum clasping mechanism, and pivoting lifting post for the basket.
