First and second rear wheels are rotatably connected to the wagon frame adjacent the second end assembly, and first and second front wheels are rotatably and pivotally connected to the wagon frame adjacent the first end assembly. The handle is pivotally connected to the first end assembly, and the push bar is pivotally connected to the second end assembly. The push bar is lockably positionable in a plurality of use positions and a storage position with a ratchet mechanism.
Claims16
A wagon comprising:
- a wagon frame having a first end assembly and an opposing second end assembly;
- a floor assembly connected to the wagon frame between the first end assembly and the second end assembly, wherein the wagon frame folds between an open configuration and a folded configuration;
- first and second rear wheels rotatably connected to the wagon frame adjacent the second end assembly;
- first and second front wheels rotatably and pivotally connected to the wagon frame adjacent the first end assembly;
- a push bar pivotally connected to the second end assembly, the push bar lockably positionable in a plurality of use positions and a storage position;
- and,
- a handle pivotally connected to the first end assembly at a pivot assembly, the pivot assembly having a spring that biases the handle toward the first end assembly, wherein the handle has a pivot member with a cam to removably secure the handle in a vertical position, and wherein the cam is a raised protrusion extending from an arcuate outer surface of the pivot member, wherein the cam has a planar surface toward a center thereof that engages a mating wall, and wherein the planar surface of the cam is not arcuate.
A wagon comprising:
- a wagon frame having a first end assembly and an opposing second end assembly;
- first and second rear wheels rotatably connected to the wagon frame adjacent the second end assembly;
- first and second front wheels rotatably and pivotally connected to the wagon frame adjacent the first end assembly;
- a handle pivotally connected to the first end assembly at a pivot assembly, the pivot assembly having a spring that biases the handle toward the first end assembly, wherein the handle has a pivot member with a cam to removably secure the handle in a vertical position, wherein the cam is a raised protrusion extending from an outer surface of the pivot member, and wherein the cam has a planar surface toward a center thereof that engages a mating wall.
A wagon comprising:
- a wagon frame having a first end assembly and an opposing second end assembly;
- first and second rear wheels rotatably connected to the wagon frame adjacent the second end assembly;
- first and second front wheels rotatably and pivotally connected to the wagon frame adjacent the first end assembly;
- a push bar connected to the wagon frame;
- and,
- a handle pivotally connected to the first end assembly at a pivot assembly, the pivot assembly having a raised cam with a planar portion that is not arcuate, and wherein the planar portion engages a mating wall to retain the handle in a vertical position.
