Abstract: A truck for use with skateboards and skate devices that includes a novel kingpin assembly that includes a novel axle assembly that is stronger, more durable and lighter than prior art axle assemblies. The truck also has an improved truck hanger that includes a specially designed pocket seat that encourages the tilt-crush bushing of the truck to deform into a plurality of recessed cavities formed in the pocket seat (or plurality of recessed cavities in a novel tilt-crush bushing), thereby more readily absorbing shock and improving the ride quality of the truck. The improved truck hanger also includes uniquely positioned stop pins that function to limit the rotational movement of the truck hanger on the tilt axis during turning maneuvers so as to prevent the wheels from contacting the bottom of the deck and possibly ejecting the rider.

Abstract: An improved, multifunction office furniture system having a novel interlocking connecting mechanism which permits the easy assembly of a variety of different structural components in a variety of different configurations to form highly efficient work areas. The system includes uniquely configured, vertical support columns to which a number of different types of structural components can be quickly and easily connected and provides a highly versatile work station system which is very attractive, is easy to assembly, disassemble and adjust, and yet, is structurally sound and durable in use. Because of its novel construction, the system is capable of readily accommodating changing work conditions in the users' facilities.
