  • Patent number: 6041474
    Abstract: The multifunctional handle (10) for a movable container, trolley or cart has two lateral, rounded head elements (11) fixed to the trolley (1) and a connecting bow (20) connecting the same having a flat, rounded cross-section (Q). The connecting bow rises in roof-shaped manner from the central area (B1) of the head elements and forms a hand-correct depression (16) towards the head element. This leads to an ergonomically particularly favourable handle for numerous hand positions (P1 to P7).

  • Patent number: 5634532
    Abstract: The braking system for movable container or trolley (1) is formed from three different, separate modules, namely in each case one brake module (20) on each brakeable wheel, at least one pedal module (30) and a connecting and transmission module (40) with sliding rods (42) connecting the pedal modules to all the brake modules. The brake module is operated by means of working surfaces (46) on the sliding rods (42) and has a lifting device (22) for operating the wheel brake (25). This leads to a rational, easily installable and easily operable braking system with reliable braking characteristics.
