Abstract: Implementations of a single piece, quick connect and disconnect (SP-QCD chassis) system for connecting and disconnecting a load via a rope to a pulling force that includes a load bar connected to a first rail and a second rail, a locking bar connected to the load bar by a third rail and a connection point for attaching various state-of-the-art connecting devices of pulling forces. The rope, the load bar, and the locking bar are used to form a QCD knot that may be tied and untied relatively quickly. One end of a SP-QCD system can be attached to a pulling force and one leg of the knot formed on the SP-QCD may be connected to a load. In this way, a load can be connected to and disconnected from a pulling force relatively quickly.

Abstract: The apparatuses and methods disclosed herein may be towed forwards and backwards by a motor vehicle. Thus, implementations of the transport device disclosed herein may have functions akin to a goose-neck trailer, yet may provide easier, more efficient and/or more cost effective transportation and loading functions over prior art trailer transportation systems. Furthermore, in some implementations, the transport device disclosed herein includes at least three, non-aligned wheels and therefore can function like a cart. Still further, in some implementations, the transport device disclosed herein can have the functions of a wagon, yet still back and maneuver like a trailer. In some implementations, the transport device includes a frame for positioning hay for feeding live stock.

Abstract: The apparatuses and methods disclosed herein may be pushed by hand or pulled by a motor vehicle. Thus, implementations of the transport device disclosed herein may have functions akin to a wheelbarrow or a dumping trailer, yet may provide easier and/or more efficient transportation and dumping functions over prior art wheelbarrows and dumping trailers. Implementation of the transport device disclosed herein also may be easier to push over an elevation or up a hill. Furthermore, in some implementations, the transport device disclosed herein includes four wheels and therefore can function like a cart. Still further, in some implementations, the transport device disclosed herein can have the functions of a wagon. In some implementations, the transport device includes a work bench.

Abstract: Various implementations of tubular composite beams (TCB's) are disclosed. The TCB's of the present disclosure may have improved formability, increased strength, reduced weight, better producibility or a combination of the foregoing. Furthermore, the composites tubular structures of the present disclosure may have greater strength to weight ratios than prior art composites.

Abstract: Implementations of a quick connect and disconnect (QCD) system for connecting and disconnecting a load via a rope to a pulling force include a primary load bar connected to a first rail and a second rail and a compression pin assembly to be inserted between the first rail and the second rail. The rails may be in a variety of configurations to accommodate different hitching systems for a pulling force. The rope, the primary load bar, and the compression pin are used to form a knot that may be tied and untied relatively quickly. One end of a QCD system can be attached to a pulling force and one leg of the knot formed on the QCD may be connected to a load. In this way, a load can be connected to and disconnected from a pulling force relatively quickly.

Abstract: The apparatuses and methods disclosed herein may be easier and quicker than prior art systems. Furthermore, the apparatuses and method disclosed herein may be more effective over rough terrain. The apparatuses and methods disclosed herein include a tongue attached to the conveyance, a floating hitch attached to the motor vehicle, and a compression-hitching pin. A conveyance can be hitched to a motor vehicle simply by inserting the hitching pin through the tongue of the conveyance and the floating hitch of the motor vehicle and then pushing down on the handle of the hitching pin and turning the handle to lock the hitching pin in place.
