Abstract: The purpose of this invention is to provide a material-moving device suitable for loading, unloading, and transporting at least one item thereon by a single person. The material-moving device includes a platform portion for holding at least one item thereon, at least two pairs of wheels rotatably attached to the platform portion in a manner that enables the front perimeter edge to pivot for easy loading and unloading the items onto the platform portion. The device also includes an elongated handle attached to the platform and an auxiliary handle movably attached to elongated handle in a manner effective to allow a single user to control the pivotal movement of the material-moving device while simultaneously gripping at least one item being loaded or unloaded onto said platform portion.

Abstract: A toothbrush storage apparatus with an inner chamber accessible through a hinged and latched top, with toothbrushes being stored in an upright orientation inside the chamber. An electrically driven, vacuum producing air displacement mechanism is connected through a gating valve to the chamber to thereby produce a vacuum-sealed condition inside the inner chamber. This vacuum-sealed condition results in a secure and sanitary environment for storage of the toothbrushes. A visual indicator can also be included on the outside of the device to show the resulting relative state of the vacuum inside the chamber. This will allow a user to activate the air displacement mechanism via an external switch for a period sufficient to generate the desired vacuum seal.
