A thumbpiece or thumb support () positioned between a head assembly () and a handle assembly () of a power operated rotary knife (). The thumb support () includes a thumb supporting surface () to support a thumb of an operator's hand during operation of the power operated rotary knife (). The thumb support () comprises a base portion () and thumb supporting portion () including the thumb supporting surface (). The thumb support () further includes an interface assembly () between the thumb supporting portion () and the base portion () for relative pivotal movement between the thumb supporting portion () and the base portion ().

Pivoting thumb support for power operated rotary knife

One embodiment of the invention relates to an adjustable cart including a upper platform with a front portion and a back portion, a lower platform with a front portion and a back portion, rolling members for movably supporting the lower platform, a first supporting member connected to the back portion of the lower platform, and a first rotational pivot structure connecting the first supporting member to the back portion of the upper platform to permit pivoting about a first pivot location. The upper platform is configured to rotate about the first rotational pivot structure from a first position substantially parallel to the lower platform to a second position substantially perpendicular to the lower platform during which the first pivot location moves away from the lower platform.

Adjustable cart

A central vacuum system connectable to an interior portion of an inhabitable structure includes a housing having an upper end, a lower end, and a side wall defining a collection chamber, the side wall defining an opening communicating between atmosphere and the collection chamber, and a vacuum motor supported in the housing and being operable to move debris from the interior portion into the collection chamber.
