    Abstract: Particular embodiments disclosed herein provide a retractable guard assembly coupled to a caster of a mobile equipment, comprising a housing and one or more guards at least partially disposed in the housing. The one or more guards are independently movably coupled to the housing. The retractable guard assembly further comprises corresponding one or more biasing elements coupled to the one or more guards and to the housing for biasing the one or more guards towards a fully deployed state. When the one or more guards are in the fully deployed state, contact between a fixed object and a portion of the one or more guards disposed outside the housing causes the one or more guards to transition into a retracted state, and when the contact is removed, the corresponding one or more biasing elements cause the one or more guards to transition into the fully deployed state.

    Abstract: A removable transport caster assembly secured to side to side beams or front to back beams in a data center cabinet in a data center. The removable transport caster assembly is temporarily installed on the cabinet to enable the cabinet to be relocated to another location in the data center. The removable transport caster assembly includes a transport caster and a transport caster bracket secured to the transport caster. The transport caster has a mounting plate, a mounting bracket extending from the mounting plate, a lifting plate pivotally connected to the mounting plate, a lifting lever pivotally connected to the mounting bracket and a wheel assembly. The transport caster bracket secures the transport caster to the cabinet when relocation of the cabinet is desired.

    Abstract: A rolling device for a device to enable the moving of the device along a surface comprises a wheel axle carrying a wheel, a lead screw with a nut, at least one axle support member rotatably connected in one end in a fixed pivot point and in the other end connected to the lead screw nut, and a drive motor connected to the lead screw to rotate the lead screw for displacing the lead screw nut and thereby displacing the wheel between an extended position and a retracted position. Each axle support member supports an end portion of the wheel axle, and the wheel has two side faces. The lead screw is arranged tangentially to the rotational direction of the wheel between the two side faces of the wheel at a distance from the wheel axle larger than the radius of the wheel.

    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a wheel assembly structure and a child activity center. The wheel assembly structure includes a connection base and a wheel assembly that is deployable. The wheel assembly is pivotally connected to the connection base. The wheel assembly has a deployment state and a storage state. An adjustment mechanism is provided between the connection base and the wheel assembly. The adjustment mechanism is configured to switch the wheel assembly into the storage state from the deployment state. When the wheel assembly is in the deployment state, the wheel assembly is deployed to a first position to move the connection base. When the wheel assembly is in the storage state, the wheel assembly is stored to a second position to stably place the connection base. The wheel assembly structure has a simple overall structure, which facilitates production and lowers production costs.

    Abstract: There is described a wheelchair comprising a wheelchair frame, a pair of drive wheels configured to contact a ground surface when the wheelchair is in use, each drive wheel rotating about an axis of rotation, at least one front wheel mounted to a front-end portion of the wheelchair frame, and an anti-tip assembly mounted to a rear-end portion of the wheelchair frame, which anti-tip assembly includes at least one pivot arm that is supported onto the rear-end portion of the wheelchair frame so as to be pivotable with respect to the wheelchair frame about a pivot axis. The pivot arm includes a drive wheel attachment point coinciding with the axis of rotation and providing attachment of at least one of the drive wheels and a wheelchair frame attachment point coinciding with the pivot axis and providing attachment of the pivot arm to the rear-end portion of the wheelchair frame. The anti-tip assembly further comprises a rear wheel that is provided at a distal end of the pivot arm, rearward of the drive wheels, and that is configured to contact the ground surface when the wheelchair is in use. The anti-tip assembly is configured to allow the wheelchair frame to tilt backwards into a predetermined stable titled position with the at least one front wheel in a raised position above the ground surface, while the drive wheels and the rear wheel remain in contact with the ground surface. In one embodiment, the pivot arm is attached, via the wheelchair frame attachment point, to a bracket of the wheelchair frame, which bracket is provided with an arcuate opening configured to allow passage of a drive wheel axis of the drive wheel, which drive wheel axis is coupled to the pivot arm, via the drive wheel attachment point, the arcuate opening defining a predetermined range of pivoting movement of the pivot arm with respect to the wheelchair frame.
