Abstract: A floor-stripping tool for attachment to a standard pallet truck, thereby converting the pallet truck into a self-propelled floor stripper. The chassis structure of the tool includes fork holders, and stabilizing brackets. A blade attaches to a blade holder on the front stabilizing bracket. To remove a floor surface with the tool, a user first attaches the fork holders of the floor-stripping tool to the forks of a pallet truck; anchor bolts ensure a tight fit. The brackets are adjusted as needed. The forks of the pallet truck are lowered to insert the blades of the tool under the surface to be removed. Moving the forks forward removes the floor surface.
Abstract: A medical device for positioning a patient correctly in the sitting position when performing spinals or epidurals. The medical device is wedge shaped and inflexible. The device can have handles adjacent to the front wall of the wedge or can be used without the handles.
The device is used by first placing it on an elevated surface, then having a patient sit on the device so that the patient's knees flex at the front and upper juncture of the device. The patient is then instructed to sit upright. By sitting upright, the pelvis will rotate backwards thereby promoting flexion of the lumbar/thoracic spine. On the medical device with handles, the flexion of the lumbar/thoracic spine can be augmented by having the patient push upward, palms up, on the handles. The upward pushing forces will force the lumbar spine posteriorly and further increase thoracic/lumbar flexion.
