Abstract: An adjustable cart for holding and transporting various size rectangular bins. The cart has an upper section and a lower section wherein said upper section contains a lip for supporting a rectangular bin. The cart also contains two vertical members spaced a predetermined distance apart and each having a lower section that is curved downwardly and rearwardly. The cart also contains wheels rotatably connected to the two vertical members and a handle connecting the two vertical members and vertically oriented members for supporting the cart.

Abstract: A waste container has an axle assembly comprising an axle with opposing axle end caps adapted to mount the wheels of the waste container. The axle comprises a metal rod encapsulated in plastic. An annular axle groove is formed near the ends of the axle in the encapsulating plastic. The metal rod provides the necessary strength for the axle and the encapsulating plastic protects the rod from corrosion while permitting the formation of the annular axle grooves used for mounting the axle to the wheel. The axle can easily be injection molded, reducing the cost and manufacturing time of prior axles while still providing corrosion protection.

Abstract: A portable vessel receptacle which includes a combination of a frame, preferably a wheeled frame supporting a bucket container or vessel. The vessel is a generally cylindrical open top receiver having a lifting handle, and optionally being provided with a fabric tool carrying cowl. The lower portion of the bucket is releasably secured to the frame by means of a positionally adjustable clamping pad along with a pair of arcuately spaced radially inwardly extending gussets which are secured to the frame, thereby facilitating an additional lifting mechanism for the entire assembly. For added stability, the top portion of the bucket or vessel is reliably releasably secured to the frame by means of a “J” hook or claw which is adjustably positioned on an upright or vertical handle, with the claw engaging and restraining the vessel at a point adjacent the upper edge thereof, preferably being engaged with the handle receiving projections on the outer surface of the bucket.

Abstract: A movable workseat cart assembly for adapting a bucket-type container to be used as a seat with an accompanying equipment tray for a workman. The assembly includes a unitary body member having a receptacle for a bucket, a partitioned equipment retainer tray surrounding the bucket receptacle, a peripheral skirt surrounding the equipment tray, and swivel wheel assemblies that are positioned between the peripheral skirt and the bucket receptacle. The mentioned elements of the overall assembly are positioned relative to each other so as to maintain a low center of gravity, and to allow the lower edge of the skirt to sweep away debris that might otherwise become lodged under and damage the bottom of the bucket receptacle. The bucket receptacle and the peripheral skirt are connected to each other by an integral spanning web extending between them.

Abstract: A carrier for refuse containers of the type having a front and a back, a top and a bottom, wheels located on the bottom back, and a cross bar located on the front midway between the top and bottom, comprising a longitudinal main beam and a plurality of cradles supported by the main beam. Each cradle is adapted to support one of the refuse containers from the bottom thereof. A locking mechanism includes a latch hook extending from the main beam centered with respect to the cradle to selectively lock onto the cross bar of the trash receptacle, and an operating handle extending alongside the cradle for engaging the latch hook.

Abstract: Disclosed is a transportable caddy for use in storing a number of products commonly used in washing a vehicle. The caddy includes a circular support which is adapted to removably and securely support a bucket. The entire caddy is supported by four legs. Each leg has a roller upon its lower extent, the roller allowing the entire caddy to be easily transported. Furthermore, the legs support drawers which allow for the storage of various cleaning products.

Abstract: The present invention includes a dolly with an upwardly extending edge about 3 to 5 inches high, that generally conforms to the size of a standard five gallon bucket. The purpose of the invention is to be able to push around whatever materials one is working with, without having to pick the bucket up to move it. The upwardly extending edge on the dolly prevents the bucket from tipping as it is being pushed or pulled. Also, additional wheels can be added to distribute the weight load more evenly, and the wheels can be raised or lowered to lower the center of gravity, to help avoid tipping of the bucket within the dolly. The dolly can be used by a person sealing a driveway with a five gallon pail bucket. Painters or spacklers can also benefit from the bucket dolly. Spacklers can stack pails on top of each other as they normally do so that they can reach into the uppermost pail and move their materials around without reaching down and getting down out of their elevated stilts or scaffolds.
