Compactible wagon

A compactible wagon comprising:

• a platform having first and second ends and upper and lower surfaces and defining a platform width, a platform length and a longitudinal axis at either end of which are disposed the first and second ends of the platform, and where the platform is further comprised of at least two pivotably interconnected independent sections, at least one section being disposed proximal the first end and at least one section being disposed proximal the second end;
• at least two sets of wheels, each of the at least two sets of wheels being disposed below the lower surface of the platform, at least one set being disposed on a bottom surface of each of at least the two independent sections proximal the first and second ends, and each set of wheels comprising at least one wheel;
• wherein the independent sections of the platform are pivotable about a horizontal axis arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal axis between an unfolded position and a folded position, where in the unfolded position all of the independent sections form a platform having a horizontally planar configuration, and wherein in a folded position the independent sections are disposed vertically adjacent one another and concomitantly the at least two sets of wheels remain located below the folded platform and are drawn closer together such that at least one set of wheels partially overlaps the other set of wheels when viewed from the side, and wherein in the horizontally planar configuration the platform of the compactible wagon is substantially flat;
• and
• a least a third and a fourth independent section, wherein the at least third independent section is pivotably interconnected with the first end of the platform and the at least fourth independent section is pivotably interconnected with the second end such that the platform length is extended on the first and second end the length of each of the at least third and fourth independent sections.
