  • Patent number: 7146656
    Abstract: An apparatus for raising and closing a hinged spa cover. A frame assembly extends over the rear panel of a bifold spa cover, and further is pivotally connected to a base assembly. In order to raise the spa cover from the spa tub, the front panel of the spa cover is folded over the rear panel and frame. The frame assembly pivots on the base assembly lifting the folded spa cover to an opened position. A stop connected to the frame assembly contacts the ground as the frame assembly pivots on the base, once the cover reaches a predetermined open position. The reverse steps will lower and close the spa cover onto the spa tub.

  • Publication number: 20040251658
    Abstract: A motorized-wheelchair trailer has a trailer chassis (1) with two wheels (2) for trailing behind a four-wheel or three-wheel motorized wheelchair trailer (4). A first coupling member (6) is on a tow bar (7) at a tow-directional distance behind rear wheels (9) of the motorized wheelchair and a second coupling member (8) is on a trailer tongue (3) at a tow-follower distance ahead of the two trailer wheels for providing predetermined turn-directional towing of the trailer chassis. The two wheels can be on fixed axles (10) for fixed turn-directional towing or on steerable trailer axles (11) for steerable turn-directional towing. The trailer chassis is built to carry weight that is towable by the motorized wheelchair. The trailer chassis can have a passenger seat (17) to carry a passenger and/or cargo space to carry shopping, luggage and other items selectively.
