Abstract: A hydraulic fluid assembly having an electric motor, a hydraulic pump, hydraulic fluid reservoir, and a hydraulic fluid spill over receptacle engaged to and underneath the hydraulic fluid assembly for capturing spill over hydraulic fluid and directing such spill over to a periphery of the hydraulic fluid spill over receptacle, where the periphery is accessible and away from the hydraulic fluid assembly such that the spill over may be manually wiped up with a cloth rag instead of causing a slippery pontoon boat surface.

Abstract: A boat lift drive for connection to a winch having a winch shaft. The boat lift drive includes a power unit, a drive train engaged to and being driven by the power unit, and a drive shaft engaged to and being driven by the drive train. The drive shaft in turn is engaged to and drives the winch shaft. The drive train includes a seat with a frustoconical section and the drive shaft includes a head with a frustoconical section. The frustoconical sections are press fit into each other. This frustoconical engagement provides a great amount of torque for lifting boats.

Abstract: A boat lift drive housing for containing a control box, electric motor and gear head for raising and lowering a boat lift. The housing includes front and rear coaxial openings for access to the gear head. The housing further includes an eyebrow cantilevered over an opening in the housing through which a key switch extends such that the key switch is protected from the sun, rain, snow and ice. The housing further includes a pair of bottom openings, with one bottom housing permitting access to a drive shaft of the electric motor and with the other bottom opening holding a tool for driving the drive shaft of the electric motor. The housing further includes a shape tailored to the control box, electric motor and gear head to minimize extra connections within the housing.

Abstract: A first barrier and a second barrier that, in a C-shape configuration, lay one on top of the other and engage each other and that, in an arched configuration, lay separate and disengaged from each other. In the C-shape configuration, the barriers can close off the bed of a pickup truck such as when the tailgate of the pickup truck is laid out and open. In the arched configuration, the barriers can serve as a four wheel vehicle ramp that extends from the ground up to the open, horizontally extending tailgate.

Abstract: A channeled track connector having a base and a slider. The slider slides into an key opening in the base. The base includes a first foot for engaging the channeled track. The slider includes a second foot for engaging the channeled track. Each piece standing alone is not engagable to the channeled track. However, when slid together, the base and slider as a whole stands together as one-piece, remains fixed to the channeled track, and serves as a mount for a predefined object.

Abstract: An interface between the gunwale or other surface of a boat and a tool such as a electronic device such as a fish finder. The interface is tucked under the mount of the electronic device and includes an opening running radially from the interior of the interface to and beyond an outer diametrical portion of the mount such that a power cord and/or other electrical connections can run from a power source in an inner portion of the boat, then to a central portion of the interface, then to the portion of the interface disposed beyond the outer diametrical portion of the mount, and then to the electrical device.

The boat lift drive includes a power unit, a drive train engaged to and being driven by the power unit, and a drive shaft engaged to and being driven by the drive train. The drive shaft in turn is engaged to and drives the winch shaft. The drive shaft includes an interior threaded opening that engages a threaded end of the winch shaft to directly connect the drive shaft to the winch shaft. The drive shaft is further engaged to the winch shaft via a pin that extends through the drive shaft and is threaded into the winch shaft.

Abstract: An oversized, break apart dolly for picking up and lifting massive articles such as snowmobiles. The dolly stands more than six feet tall. A typical operator of the dolly brings his arms over his head to reach the handle of the dolly, and then uses his weight to draw the handle down to in turn lift up the other end of the dolly that is engaging and lifting the heavy article. The oversized dolly can be adjusted in height and in width to receive articles of different height and width. The pick up of the dolly (the mechanism that engages the article) can be adjusted toward and away from a central axis of the dolly to be positioned as desired on the heavy article. The oversized dolly may be broken down to a relatively compact size by the legs being removably engagable with the handle, by the pick ups being removably engagable from the legs, and by the legs themselves being broken down into two pieces which are reassembled when needed.
