PCT No. PCT/GB92/01911 Sec. 371 Date May 14, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date May 14, 1996 PCT Filed Oct. 16, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/08105 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 29, 1993A device for pulling heavy equipment across a supporting surface such as a floor. It includes a composite pad of generally rectangular shape having lengthwise and crosswise edges. The composite pad includes a lower, flexible sheet of plastic and an upper backing of rubber. The plastic sheet has a smooth lower surface for engaging the floor. The upper rubber backing has a ribbed surface for engaging the equipment. A pair of straps attached to the composite pad extend lengthwise beyond at least one crosswise edge of the composite pad. Each of the pair of straps is attached to the composite pad between the plastic sheet and the rubber backing along a lengthwise edge of the composite pad. Each of the straps terminates in a distal end located remotely of the composite pad and a handle is formed in each distal end of each strap. Each strap may extend beyond each crosswise edge of the pad. An accessory pad of the same size and shape as the composite pad is formed of a synthetic carpet fabric and is intended to be positioned below the smooth lower surface of the plastic sheet of the composite pad to assist in moving the composite pad over a flat vinyl, wooden or rubberized floor.
