Abstract
The wheeled skate includes an inverted U-shaped elongated channel member, two housings, and two wheels. The channel member has apertures formed in the top near both ends of the member. Each housing is in an inverted U-shape and has a rounded portion covering one end. Apertures are formed in the top and sides of each housing. Each wheel has a bushing and axle that pass through the center thereof. The wheel is inserted into its respective housing so that the axle fits into the apertures formed within the sides of the housing. Each housing is then secured within an end of the channel member. A bolt is inserted through each aperture formed within the top of the channel member and is secured to the bottom of the storage device. In a second embodiment, the wheel is secured directly to the elongated channel member via a bolt.
