Abstract: The present invention is directed to a pump arrangement for use in a gear box housing. The interior surface of the gear box housing has a collection wall arranged in the interior surface of the housing. A shaft is rotatably disposed through the gear box housing and has a longitudinal bore extending through the shaft that provides a lubrication delivery arrangement for distributing lubricant through the gear box housing. A pump housing circumscribes the shaft and has a discharge cavity connected to the longitudinal bore. Additionally, the pump housing has an inlet port for receiving lubrication from the collection wall. Contained within the pump housing is a pump member that has an impeller face and helical threaded surface that pressurizes and introduces the lubricant into the lubricant delivery arrangement.

Abstract: A drive-up equipment transporting apparatus 10 has a tiltable carrying rack 30 hinged to a frame member 22. The rack 30 is lockable in an untilted or tilted position, the latter position for driving an ATV or other small vehicle 18 from ground level 16 onto or from the rack. An outrigger 24 projects from frame member 22 to support the non-loading side 36 of the rack 30. The frame member 22 comprises a square tubing member having a front end insertable into a Class 4 hitch receiver 14 of a host vehicle. In an alternative embodiment, a square tubing member comprises the frame 432 of a wheeled trailer 430 with a terminal hitch 444. A plurality of carrying racks 30 are hinged to centrally tilt about the frame 432.
