Abstract
A transport device cart having a frame assembly having one or more arms corresponding to and capable of engaging a removable bucket; one or more movement mechanisms; and a latching post. It also includes a latching assembly rotatably coupled to the frame assembly having a hooking latch capable of engaging and disengaging the latching post. A handle assembly is coupled to the latching assembly, wherein the handle assembly can be rotated back and used to push the removable bucket into a substantially inverted position.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A transport device cart comprising:
a) frame assembly having one or more arms corresponding to and capable of engaging a removable bucket; one or more movement mechanisms; and a latching post; b) a latching assembly rotatably coupled to the frame assembly having a hooking latch capable of engaging and disengaging the latching post; and c) a handle assembly coupled to the latching assembly, wherein the handle assembly can be rotated back and used to push the removable bucket into a substantially inverted position.
2 . The transport device cart of claim 1 , wherein the latch assembly further comprises two base pieces connected at substantially 90 degree angles to a connection piece.
3 . The transport device cart of claim 2 , wherein the latch assembly further comprises a u-shaped fastener secured to the connection piece.
4 . The transport device cart of claim 3 , wherein the latch assembly further comprises a hook latch rotatably coupled to the fastener.
5 . The transport device cart of claim 4 , wherein the hook latch is two or more hook pieces connected substantially parallel to one another and separated by a spacer.
6 . The transport device cart of claim 5 , wherein the hook latch includes a threaded receptacle between the hook pieces.
7 . The transport device cart of claim 4 , wherein the hook latch is a substantially single piece.
8 . The transport device cart of claim 1 wherein the handle assembly is removable.
9 . The transport device cart of claim 1 , wherein the handle assembly includes a locking pivot mechanism.
10 . The transport device cart of claim 9 , wherein the handle assembly and the latch assembly are coupled at a sleeve thereby allowing the handle assembly to pivot in a variety of orientations such that the transport device cart can be easily moved in a relatively small space.
11 . The transport device cart of claim 1 , wherein the hook latch is capable of disengaging the latching post when the bucket is being emptied such that the bucket can be tipped until substantially upside down.
12 . The transport device cart of claim 1 , further comprising a kickstand.
13 . The transport device cart of claim 12 , wherein the kickstand includes a pedal.
14 . The transport device cart of claim 12 , wherein the kickstand is coupled to the frame assembly with one or more sleeves.
15 . The transport device cart of claim 12 , wherein the kickstand further includes a stopping mechanism that prevents the kickstand from motion beyond a predetermined point.
16 . The transport device cart of claim 15 , wherein the stopping mechanism further comprises a stopper fastened to the frame assembly; and one or more ends of a gap in the sleeve, wherein the ends of the gap but up against the stopper thus preventing the kickstand from motion beyond a predetermined point.
17 . The transport device cart of claim 12 , further comprising a spring rod mechanism.
18 . The transport device cart of claim 1 wherein the one or more arms are bent.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
