  • Method of conveying trollies
    Patent number: 6406250
    Abstract: A method for facilitating movement of a plurality of nested trollies (including a leading trolley and a trailing trolley), the method comprising the steps of connecting an adjustable ratchet-type tension mechanism between the leading and trailing trolleys, and actuating the tension mechanism so as to produce a preselected tension between the leading and trailing trolleys to thereby hold the nested trolleys tightly together. In the preferred embodiment, the preselected tension is sufficient to upwardly the leading and trailing trolleys off of the ground surface.
