Abstract
There is disclosed a compact motorized dolly including an elongated casing incorporating a power source and at least one drive motor, a first circular wheel rotably affixed to the distal end of the elongated casing and the at least one drive motor such that actuation of the at least one drive motor causes the first circular wheel to turn, and a device mount secured to the compact motorized dolly such that a device mounted to the device mount moves along with the compact motorized dolly when the drive motor is activated.
Claims25
A compact motorized dolly comprising:
- an elongated casing defining a longitudinal axis and incorporating a power source and a drive motor, the elongated casing having a proximal end and a distal end spaced apart along the axis;
- a single circular drive wheel rotatably affixed to the distal end of the elongated casing and coupled to the at least one drive motor such that actuation of the drive motor causes the drive wheel to turn about the axis;
- and
- a device mount secured to the compact motorized dolly such that a device mounted to the device mount moves along with the compact motorized dolly when the drive motor is activated.

A compact motorized dolly comprising:
- a wheel assembly comprising a body including at least two wheels at opposing ends of the body and a joining hole between the at least two wheels;
- an elongated casing defining a longitudinal axis and defining a proximal end and a distal end spaced apart along the axis, the casing incorporating a power source and at least one drive motor on coupled to a single circular drive wheel on the distal end of the casing such that actuation of the at least one drive motor causes the drive wheel to turn, the proximal end of the elongated casing being sized to fit within the joining hole such that the elongated casing engages with the joining hole with relative rotation therebetween being restricted;
- a device mount on top of the wheel assembly and perpendicular to both the wheel assembly and the elongated casing such that a device mounted to the device mount moves with the compact motorized dolly when the drive motor is activated.
A compact motorized dolly comprising:
- a panoramic base including a base, bearing above and in contact with the base and a bracket, above and in contact with the bearing, through which a proximal end of an elongated casing may pass to thereby engage the panoramic base;
- an elongated casing incorporating a power source and at least one drive motor on a distal end of the shaft rotably affixed to a first circular wheel such that actuation of the at least one drive motor causes the first circular wheel to turn, a proximate end of the elongated casing inserted within the bracket such that the elongated casing engages with the bracket and when the first circular wheel turns, the distal end of the elongated casing rotates about the panoramic base in a circle;
- and
- a device mount on top of the bracket such that a device mounted to the device mount turns in a circle when the drive motor is activated.
