A motorcycle frame including a pair of symmetrically situated frame sections, each including an elongated frame tube extending from a steering post in the front to the rear of the frame. Steering post support portions of the tubes are connected to the steering post and flare rearwardly, laterally outwardly and downwardly therefrom into parallel run portions arranged in a spaced apart relationship through a medial portion of the frame to define the bottom of a passenger compartment. Rearwardly of...

An improved backpacking frame is provided with a frame extending in spaced, conforming relationship behind and above the head of a wearer so that the pack can be positioned generally higher and more forward than conventionally supported packs. Additionally, one or more load carrying pouches can be attached to the improved frame so as to be worn across the chest of the wearer. The use of such an improved frame, alone or in combination with the companion pouches, provides the backpacker with an im...

This macrame frame includes a pair of elongate side members pivotally interconnected at the upper ends and having a hook assembly at the connection point adapted to hold looped macrame cord. The side members are pivotally interconnected at the lower end to an elongate member having an intermediate clamp assembly adapted to clamp the macrame cord. The side members and lower member are slotted to provide for adjustment of the pivot connections to selectively determine the distance between the hook...

A trailer frame for carrying tall, heavy loads includes a pair of parallel frame members of generally Z-shaped cross-sectional configuration joined together by cross-bracing to form a rigid structural frame in which the bottom flanges of the frame members extend inwardly to provide means for supporting a load inside the trailer frame. A pair of suspension springs and a tongue adapted for connection to a towing vehicle are secured to portions of the frame members located above the plane of the lo...

A motorcycle sidecar frame composed of five elongate struts secured together at their respective ends into a shape substantially conforming to that of a tetrahedron. In one embodiment, a portion of an elongate frame member found on a motorcycle comprises the sixth edge of the tetrahedron. Two of the vertices of the tetrahedral frame are respectively located at two spaced points of the frame member. The remaining two vertices of the tetrahedron are respectively secured to a sidecar suspension sys...

Building frame elongate structural elements are provided having at least cavity which in transverse cross section has a mouth permitting access to said cavity, defined by a pair of opposed flanges which have first portions extending toward each other across the mouth and second portions extending inwardly of the cavity from said first portions and terminating at free edges so as to leave to each side of the mouth an undercut space which is behind the first portion and laterally outside the secon...

An exercycle frame for an exercycle having a rider's seat, pedals and handle bars in a conventional arrangement, with the pedals driving a drag wheel below the handle bars through a conventional, sprocket-chain connection. The framework, formed of tubular members welded together, includes a longitudinal body tube extending from the rear floor point to frame forks at the front which carry the wheel. The seat structure upstands from this body tube and a pedal-bearing-retainer tube is attached to t...

A framework is constructed using posts having side walls in which vertically aligned and spaced-apart slots are formed. The posts support frame members having end edges which abut the side wall. A pair of hooks on the end edge enter into a pair of slots and, when the frame members are moved relative to one another, the hooks engage the side wall and the end edge is clamped to that wall. The end edges have locking tabs which are bent into a slot to prevent disengagement of the frame members.

A bed carrying frame comprising a pair of generally parallel side rail members, of hollow rectangular shape, a pair of end rail units, each of which consists of two relatively telescoped end rail members which are also of hollow rectangular shape, and corner bracket members mounting each of the end rail members on one of the side rail members. The corner bracket members are substantially identical and function to pivotally mount the end rail members on the side rail members for movement between ...

A dough frame comprising in combination a discoid bottom plate; a first member removable thin sheet of plastic material sufficient in size to be mounted smoothly over and folded under said discoid plate; an annular rim element, having a rim height greater than the thickness of said discoid plate, the latter covered by said first member plastic sheet, and said rim element having a diameter adjusting means and supporting means cooperates with the said discoid plate covered with said first member p...
