The present invention relates to a towing device which utilizes a towing base, wheels, and a plurality of movable tracks, a tongue hitch attachment, and a vehicle locator swivel plate. The invention can be supplied with hydraulic surge brakes or electric brakes, as well as brake and turn lights. Tie down straps are used for securing the vehicle to the dolly. The invention features an adjustable car locator swivel plate. This allows the adjustment of the weight distribution to 'fine tune' the load. The tongue weight can be adjusted to comply with the RV hitch's requirements. Using the loading ramps supplied with the invention, the automobile and the golf cart can be ready for transport quickly and easily.

A wheel bearing assembly for a wheel assembly of a motor vehicle, wherein the wheel bearing assembly includes a wheel hub having inner and outer bearing race shoulders for receiving respective inner and outer roller bearing races and roller bearing housings with roller bearings therein, the wheel bearing assembly adapted for being mounted on a wheel axle. The wheel bearing assembly comprises an annular spacer body having a central opening for permitting the spacer body to be positioned onto the axle between one of the inner or outer roller bearing housings for exerting an axial compression thereon, a spacer cap having a central opening for permitting the spacer cap to be positioned onto the axle between the inner and outer roller bearing housings and in engaging coaxial alignment with the spacer body for engaging the other of the inner or roller bearing housings, and an annular shim having a central opening for permitting the shim to be positioned onto the axle between the spacer body and the spacer cap. The shim has an axially-extending dimension predetermined to produce with the spacer body and the spacer cap a combined axially-extending dimension suitable to create and maintain a predetermined amount of axial compression on the inner and outer roller bearing housings against the respective inner and outer bearing races sufficient to prevent rotation of the bearing races relative to the roller bearing housings.

An adjustable spoiler support for adjustably supporting a aerodynamic spoiler relative to a racing car body, including an elongate support bar having opposite first and second ends and gimbals having at least two axes of movement carried by the support bar for permitting two-axis adjusting movement of the spoiler support. Attachments are provided for attaching the first end of the support bar to the spoiler and the second end of the support bar to the car body. The gimbals have at least first and second axes of movement.

Helm chair

A boat captain's helm chair has a seat part which is movable forwardly and rearwardly relative to a support, and a backrest with a retaining member such that its forward movement is counteracted. The forward portion of the seat part is rounded relative to the remaining portion to provide a support for the user in both a sitting and semi-standing rearward leaning postural position. Side portions of the seat extend forwardly of its mid portion to prevent lateral movements of the user. A compressive distortion of the armrest is counteracted by a dense U-shaped shock absorber to prevent the distortion of the armrest from constant use.

A back attachment for a muscle exercise and/or rehabilitation apparatus of the type having a motor driven output shaft with a central axis, includes seat for supporting a person thereon; a back exercising frame connected to the output shaft for pivoting the back of the person about the central axis when the person is seated in the seat; a support stand for fixedly supporting the seat at a downward angle of approximately 15 degrees toward a front portion of the seat, regardless of the angle of pivot of the back exercising frame; securing straps for securing the person to the seat and back exercising frame; an adjustable foot rest connected to the seat for supporting the feet of the person, during pivoting the back exercising frame, the adjustable foot rest being adjustable along the length thereof toward and away from the seat; a lumbar support connected with the back exercising frame for supporting the lumbar region of the person about an axis offset from the central axis, during pivoting movement of the back exercising frame, in any selected one of a plurality of different positions; a scapula support for supporting the scapular region of the person; a scapular connection for adjustably connecting the scapula support to the back exercising frame; a cervical support for supporting the cervical spine of the person; and a cervical spine connection for connecting the cervical support to the back exercising frame with three degrees of freedom of adjustment.
