Abstract: A multi-mode load carrier is convertible to assume a storage mode, a cart mode, and a hand-truck mode. The load carrier includes a rolling base and a base pusher having a handgrip.

Abstract: A foldable step stool includes a step and a pair of legs. The legs are mounted on the step for movement between use and storage positions.

Abstract: A hand truck is convertible to assume an expanded use mode and a flat storage mode. The hand truck includes a rolling base and a base pusher. The rolling base is arranged to support goods and to roll on ground underlying the hand truck. The base pusher is mounted on the rolling base for pivotable movement about a base-pusher pivot axis from an upright hand-truck position to a storage position to rearrange the hand truck between the expanded use mode and the flat storage mode.

Abstract: The invention of this application relates to an infant carrier with carry handle wherein the carry handle is adapted to facilitate easier, more comfortable carrying in the crook of one's elbow and wherein the carry handle is adapted to removably display a printed image or other indicia, such as safety or identification indicia.

Abstract: A recoverable, ejectable, data-recording apparatus is configured to record information from multiple recording instruments that are configured to record operating data associated with a moving vehicle. The ejectable apparatus includes means for connecting an ejectable apparatus in parallel to a plurality of data recording instruments in a host vehicle. The ejectable apparatus also includes means for separately storing information received from each of the plurality of data recording instruments for a predefined time period in a memory unit of the apparatus. The ejectable apparatus may further include means for monitoring for occurrence of a predefined criterion which may prior to an occurrence of a catastrophic event involving the host vehicle. The ejectable apparatus may also include means for separating portions of the ejectable apparatus from the host vehicle upon detection of a predefined criterion.

Abstract: A car seat for transporting a child in an automobile is described which is convertible from a rear-facing infant carrier into a forward-facing toddler carrier by the inclusion or removal of a separable headrest. The car seat features a belt adjustment system as well as a crotch belt adjustment system in addition to front and rear restraint attachment components.

Abstract: A stepladder includes a longer inclined frame provided with steps coupled to a shorter stabilizer frame provided with rungs for movement relative to the longer inclined frame between an expanded use position and a collapsed storage position. The stepladder also includes a top-step lock to lock the top step in a fixed position relative to the two frames.

Abstract: An infant carrier and car seat combination is illustrated which provides releasable lockability between the carrier and its base, infant seat belt tensioning and height adjustment, improved handle movement which resists twisting and carrier base adjustment through a movable base within the carrier base.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to an adjustably extendable seat back for a car seat, that optionally folds compactly for easy transportation.

Abstract: This invention relates to a child's car seat which may be used with or without an internal harness system, and, more specifically relates to a car seat with a means to store the internal harness system of the car seat when the car seat is being used without the harness system.

Abstract: The invention of this application relates to an infant carrier with carry handle wherein the carry handle is adapted to facilitate easier, more comfortable carrying in the crook of one's elbow and wherein the carry handle is adapted to removably display a printed image or other indicia, such as safety or identification indicia.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to a foldable or collapsible juvenile car seat.
