Inventors:

Eric B. CLIFFORD - Wolfeboro NH, US

International Classification:

A45C 15/00

US Classification:

224576

Abstract:

A tool belt comprising a band for attachment of the tool belt to a worker and at least one pouch attached to the band and defining an interior compartment for accommodating at least one tool therein. At least one guide is formed within the pouch and the guide communicates with the interior compartment. A tool cord retractor is supported by the tool belt, a second end of a tool cord is secured to the tool cord retractor while a first end of the tool cord extends through the guide and is secured to a tool engagement element which is releasably securable to a desired tool. When the desired tool is attached to the tool engagement element and the desired tool is removed from the pouch, the tool cord retractor permits removal of stored tool cord and thereby stores a potential energy for returning the tool cord back to the tool cord retractor.

Abstract:

An equipment mounting assembly, for attachment of a desired equipment to a snowplow attachment, which comprises a mounting frame with an equipment adapter. A first end of a frame adaptor is pivotally attached, by a horizontal pivot, to a rear portion of the mounting frame to facilitate tilting thereof while a second end of the frame adaptor is engageable with a snowplow attachment. First and second spaced apart support brackets are supported by the mounting frame, and each of the support brackets facilitates coupling the mounting frame to the snowplow attachment. A first end of a frame tilt actuator is supported by the mounting frame while a second end of the frame tilt actuator is attachable to the frame adaptor or and the snowplow attachment so as to facilitate forward and rearward tilting of the mounting frame about a horizontal tilt axis defined by the horizontal pivot.
