Abstract:
A float sled comprising a body with a substantially flat upper surface, a lift plate operationally associated with the body and adapted to move from a first position in proximity to the upper surface of the body to a second position above the first position and above the body, a set of pneumatic air bag lifts associated with the lift plate to raise and lower the lift plate to various horizontal orientations with differing degrees of tilt, and an air bearing adapted to raise the body above the ground.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an air bearing carriage (8), a bobsleigh (2) provided therewith, a track (4) therefor and a method for simulating bobsleighing conditions. The air bearing carriage (8) comprises : a frame; a number of air bearings (10) arranged on the frame and provided with a compressed air connection, wherein the air bearings (10) are embodied such that the carriage is movable relative to a track (4). The carriage is preferably applied for a bobsleigh (2).

Abstract:
Disposição introduzida em eixo e rodas com cilindros rolantes para transporte de carga, formado por duas rodas (1) separadas e posicionadas paralelamente entre si por um eixo principal (10) disposto no centro das rodas e uma pluralidade de cilindros rolantes (11) que giram radialmente em torno de seu próprio eixo, sustentam e movimentam sobre si uma prancha base (12); os ditos cilindros são fixados por cabo ou corda (13) ao carretel (14), que recolhe a corda (13) através da manivela (15) ou não; os cilindros rolantes (11) são dispostos de modo anular na face interna da rodas (1) acompanhando sua circunferência; as extremidades do eixo principal (10) e a prancha base (12) são unidas por cabos ou cordas ou outros ao animal tracionador ou à outra força qualquer capaz de movimentar o conjunto; a movimentação das rodas (1) resulta no simultâneo movimento dos cilindros rolantes (11), que operacionalmente passam por baixo da base (12) e sustentam a carga na base contida, permitindo que elas deslizem sobre os eixos rolantes (11).
Abstract:
A toy vehicle includes a body and a left front wheel a right front wheel, a left rear wheel, and a right rear wheel with each of these wheels being coupled with the body and rotatabie relative to the body. The toy vehicle also includes a caster assembly that includes a swivel-type caster. The swivel-type caster is coupled with the body and includes at least one rotatabie wheel. The swivel-type caster is swivelable relative to the body and is movable vertically relative to the body between a raised position and a lowered position.
