Abstract

An extendable pole with an attachment mechanism on its distal end for receiving a selective tool from a set of selective tools. The set of tools includes a push plate for pushing a load slidably in a vehicle such as in a truck bed; a hook for retrieving a load slidably from deep into the vehicle; and a brush head each attachable transversely on the pole distal end to operate nearly vertically with the pole nearly horizontal.

Claims

1. A load caddy for moving a light load in a vehicle comprising,

an elongate extension pole with a longitudinal axis with its distal end being adapted to releasably secure a selective tool thereto, and

a set of selective tools each of which is adapted to releasably attach transversely to the pole axis at a pole distal end,

wherein the set of selective tools comprises a hook extending transversely from the pole, radial to the pole axis and a push plate mounted on a leg of said hook forward of the hook;

and a brush head for sweeping the vehicle with brush bristles extending transversely to the pole axis.

2. A load caddy for moving a light load in a vehicle comprising,

an elongate extension pole with a longitudinal axis with its distal end being adapted to releasably secure a selective tool thereto, and

a set of selective tools each of which is adapted to releasably attach transversely to the pole axis at a pole distal end,

wherein the selective tool comprises a combination of a hook extending transversely from the pole and a push plate on a leg of said hook forward of the hook.
