Abstract: Kick bar assemblies mounted to an opposite side walls of a squeeze chute structure each include an upright shaft that is rotatably mounted to the squeeze chute wall. Each kick bar assembly connects at one end to an actuator for rotating the shaft and at the other end to a kick bar which may be pivoted by the actuator between a first retracted position, a second normal extended position in which the kick bar is generally normal to the wall of the squeeze chute and a third forward position in which the kick bar is rotated forward of the normal position and defines an acute angle with the squeeze chute wall. The actuators controlling the motion of the kick bars are capable of being simultaneously remotely controlled to act in unison.

Abstract: The trailer apparatus of the present invention includes a frame suitable for holding and supporting a livestock implement from a position above the livestock implement and a pair of actuated wheel assemblies which can extend from a retracted position to an extended position to support the livestock implement for transport. Each wheel assembly includes an arm which has a proximate end and a distal end. Each arm of each wheel assembly is pivotably mounted to one of the side members at the proximate of the arm. Each arm of each wheel assembly has a wheel rotatably mounted to the distal end of the arm. An actuator connects between each side member of the frame and the arm of each wheel assembly. The actuators are configured and controlled to extend and retract the wheel assemblies.
