Abstract: A canoe caddy having a frame adapted to support one end of a canoe or boat thereon, front ground-engaging wheels, and rear ground-engaging wheels. The frame is held straight over the top of the wheels in a first position which is useful for attaching one end of a canoe in an inverted position thereon, for moving such canoe near a vehicle, and for loading such canoe onto or off from a car top carrier or the like. Once the canoe and caddy are loaded onto such car top carrier, then the caddy can be folded to a more compact position. The caddy is also useful in a third position whereby the frame is rotated over the front wheels thereof for receiving a canoe in an upright position on one end thereof for permitting one person to easily transport the canoe to the water's edge for launching such canoe into the water using such caddy.

Abstract: A head assembly for a fluid lubricant dispenser including a piston cavity having inlet and outlet ports disposed near the bottom of the cavity. The inlet and outlet ports are controlled by check valves that function oppositely and simultaneously to allow the flow of lubricant in one direction. The location of the inlet port and the use of a check valve in conjunction with the inlet port allows for effective operation of the lubricant dispenser with any appreciable movement of the piston via the operative lever mechanism.
