Cart with a foldable platform

An apparatus for transporting cargos, the apparatus comprising:

• a fixed platform having a first edge and a first top surface for carrying the cargos;
• a foldable platform having a second top surface for carrying the cargos and a second edge pivotally attached to the first edge, the foldable platform pivoting between a horizontal position and an upright position, the first and second top surface being in a same plane when the foldable platform being at the horizontal position, and the first and second top surface forming a predetermined angle when the foldable platform being at the upright position;
• two support beams mounted to the fixed platform and extended to beneath the foldable platform;
• a crossbar mounted between the two support beams;
• and
• a support rod having an opposing first and second end, the first end pivotally attached to a bottom surface of the foldable platform and the second end releasably engaging the crossbar, when the second end being engaged with the crossbar, the support rod, a part of the support beams, a part of the fixed platform and a part of the foldable platform forming a triangle holding the foldable platform at the upright position.
