The support mechanism further configured to rigidly hold the medical imaging supplies with a first holding mechanism, the medical imaging supplies configured to store at least one dose of a nuclear medicine, a plurality of wheels arranged below the support surface, at least one door configured to enclose the medical imaging supplies, and a handle configured to be grasped by a user to guide the medical imaging supply transport cart.
Abstract:
A portable surgical robot includes a surgical device and a cart. The surgical device is coupled to the cart. The cart includes a chassis, a mount coupled to the chassis, a carriage pivotally coupled to the mount, and a set of wheels. The carriage includes a first bracket positioned at a first lateral end of the carriage and a second bracket positioned at a second lateral end of the carriage. A first wheel of the set of wheels is coupled to the first bracket and a second wheel of the set of wheels is coupled to the second bracket. The carriage is configured to pivot relative to the mount to prevent at least one of (i) rocking of the portable surgical robot, (ii) fluttering of the first wheel, (iii) fluttering of the second wheel, and (iv) tipping of the portable surgical robot.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a coin bin, comprising a body defining a chamber to receive coins, the body further defining a receiving area to releasably receive part of a steering handle and being formed of a structurally strong plastic; a lid to close the chamber, the lid being lockable and removable when unlocked; and a plurality of wheels affixed to the body to support the body. The coin bin is suitable for positioning inside an automatic teller machine (ATM).
Abstract:
A braking assembly, particularly for wheels of trolleys, bins and manually moved structures in general, of the type that can be associated with a support fork (A), for a wheel (B) of a structure (C) to be moved. The assembly (1) comprises at least one bracket (2) for supporting lever means (3) provided with a pedal (4), which in turn is articulated to the bracket (2) and is associated with a braking organ (5); the organ (5) is movable between two elastically stable configurations, respectively of disengagement from the wheel (B) and of locking it. The bracket (2) comprises an accommodation opening (6) for an appendage (4a) of the pedal (4), in the locked configuration. The lever means (3) comprise a closing fluke (7), which is located above so as to cover the opening (6) and which is movable with respect to the bracket (2), after coming into contact with the appendage (4a), in the locked configuration.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are disclosed for releasably securing a castor of a shopping cart at a desired location. The apparatus comprises a brake foot movable with respect to the castor between engaged and disengaged positions with the brake foot comprising a base portion contactable with a running surface when the brake foot is in an engaged position and at least one side panel extending from the base portion. The apparatus also includes at least one biasing element securable to a fixed location with respect to the shopping cart castor and to the brake foot, which biasing element is operative to bias the brake foot towards the disengaged position.
Abstract:
A load-carrying dolly having four wheels (6, 7) adjacent the corners of its platform (1) is rendered immobile by conversion to a pallet-like condition by lowering bearers (9, 10, 11) into contact with the floor or ground (24) and then raising the platform (1) slightly to raise the wheels (6, 7) clear of the floor or ground by means of either of two pedals (25, 32), one below each end of the platform (1), with linkage (of either of two forms, not shown) to bars (23) connecting in “slave” pairs of toggle links (20, 21) by means of which the bearers are suspended through beams (33) connecting upward extensions (12, 13, 14) at the ends of the bearers (9, 10, 11), the toggle links in each pair becoming locked by mating abutments (28) coming together when the links have passed slightly beyond in-line position, the mechanical advantage of the depressed pedal (25 or 32) being amplified by that of the pairs of toggle links when passing through in-line positions.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an underframe (2), in particular for trolleys, having a baseplate (4) and four castors (5, 6, 7, 8) mounted on said baseplate. Two pedals (12, 13) are fitted along the transverse side (11) of the underframe, each pedal being connected to a control strip (19, 20) situated above the castors and running along the longitudinal side. A brake of at least one castor is connected to each control strip. The control strips are interconnected by means of a swivel arm (25). The control strips run through underneath the fixing plates of the castors and comprise a cam (33) which can act upon a spring pawl (31) of the brake system of the castors. Such a design produces a very sturdy and lightweight brake system which has the minimum of parts and is very reliable in operation.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a dolly for transporting or presenting goods, comprising a braking member (8) that comprises a flexible body, that is positioned near a tread of a wheel (6, 7) and that is fixedly connected with a first body part with a bottom part (3) or a suspension system of the wheel (6, 7) and with a second body part is connected to an end of an activation member (15), wherein, upon movement of an operating member (9) arranged on the dolly to a braking position, the second body part is bent towards the tread of the concerned wheel (6, 7) by the activation member (15) for engagement of the flexible body on the tread.
