Abstract: An apparatus for sweeping a ground surface, comprises: a panel member configured to be moved across a ground surface to sweep the ground surface, the panel member having an underside that, in use, faces the ground surface to be swept, an upper side that provides a collection surface for collecting debris swept from the ground surface, and one or more openings that extend between the underside and the upper side for conveying debris from the ground surface to the collection surface on the upper side of the panel member; and a debris retaining assembly configured to be mounted on the panel member for trapping the debris conveyed to the collection surface on the upper side of the panel member. The debris retaining assembly comprises a frame and a flexible cover supported spaced above the collection surface by the frame when the assembly is mounted on the panel member.

Abstract: Tow coupling (100) having a tow coupling part (128) for fitment to a tow ball (104) of the vehicle, a load coupling (190) for coupling to a load to be towed, and a tow element (180) pivotally connecting to the tow coupling part (128) and to the load coupling part (190). Pivoting of the tow element (180) with respect to the tow coupling part (128) varies the vertical position of the load coupling part (190). Positioning structure (220), between the tow coupling part (128) and the tow element (180) permits setting that position. The positioning structure (220) is resiliently biased by a spring (260) so as to resiliently bias the tow element (180) such that the load coupling (190) assumes a selectable set position, from which the load coupling (190) is however upwardly displaceable under pivoting of the tow element (180) against that resilient bias.
