US 2021/0009178 A1 · Adjustable Beach Transport Wagon

Abstract

A wagon for transporting beach articles and elongated water sport boards has a bed with a peripheral frame with two cross tubes beneath a bottom wall. The frame is carried on front and rear wheel assemblies. Front and rear walls are mounted to the frame, and side walls are adjustably positioned with respect to the frame. Each side wall has two tubular extensible support members which telescope within the frame cross members. When a side wall is positioned outwardly, the extensible support members are positioned to receive a water sport board thereon, such that it extends through front and rear slots defined between the front and rear walls and the extended side wall. A latch is associated with each side wall and actuatable to alternatively secure or release the wall. The latch may be a clamp with an elastomeric plug expandable from an extensible support member withing a cross member.

Dependent claims

A wagon for transporting beach-related articles and elongated water sport boards, comprising:

a chassis;
a plurality of wheels mounted beneath the chassis;
a box mounted to the chassis above the wheels, the box having a lower floor, and walls extend upwardly from the floor, wherein each wall comprises a barrier for retaining beach-related articles within the wagon, wherein the walls define a first portion and a second portion, and wherein the first portion has elements defining a front tubular bar and a rear tubular bar, and the walls define a second portion which is spaced sidewardly from first portion and which has a front tubular bar and rear tubular bar, wherein the first portion front tubular bar is spaced sidewardly from the second portion front tubular bar to define a front slot, and the first portion rear tubular bar is spaced sidewardly from the second portion rear tubular bar to define a rear slot, the tubular bars which define the slots being substantially vertical and parallel;
and
wherein the rear slot is spaced rearwardly of the front slot, and wherein a water sport board is engageable with the wagon such that the board extends within the front slot and the rear slot so that portions of the board extend between and beyond the box.

A wagon for transporting articles and elongated water sport boards, comprising:

a frame having a plurality of wheels mounted thereto and including a front wheel assembly and a rear wheel assembly positioned rearwardly from the front wheel assembly, wherein portions of the frame define at least one cross member extending transverse to a front to back direction;
a bed connected to the frame and having a bottom wall;
an upwardly extending front wall mounted to the frame;
an upwardly extending rear wall mounted to the frame rearwardly of the front wall;
a first side wall mounted to the frame between the front wall and the rear wall;
a second side wall mounted to the frame between the front wall and the rear wall, with the bed being positioned between the first side wall and the second side wall;
at least one extensible support member extending from the first side wall into the at least one cross member, the support member being extendable sidewardly of the bed to support a water sport board thereon, such that when the first side wall is spaced sidewardly from the bed, slots are defined between the first side wall and the front wall and between the first side wall and the rear wall, such that a water support board may extend through said slots and across the at least one extensible support member;
and
a latch which is actuatable to alternatively secure the at least one extensible support member to the frame, or to release the at least one extensible support member for adjustable positioning of the first side wall closer or further from the bed.

A wagon for transporting articles and elongated water sport boards, comprising:

a bed comprising a peripheral frame and a bottom wall;
a first cross tube fixed to the peripheral frame;
a second cross tube fixed to the peripheral frame rearwardly of the first cross tube, the second cross tube thus spaced from the first cross tube in a front to back direction, wherein the cross members extend transverse to the front to back direction;
a front wheel assembly pivotably mounted to the first cross tube;
a rear wheel assembly fixedly mounted to the second cross tube;
an upwardly extending front wall mounted frontwardly of the peripheral frame;
an upwardly extending rear wall mounted rearwardly of the peripheral frame;
a first side wall positioned between the front wall and the rear wall;
a second side wall mounted between the front wall and the rear wall, with the bed being positioned between the first side wall and the second side wall;
two extensible support members extending from the each of the first side wall and the second side wall, wherein each extensible support member is a tube which extends into one of the cross members, and wherein the first side wall and the second side wall are extendable sidewardly of the bed on the extensible support members to support a water sport board thereon, such that when the one of the side walls is spaced sidewardly from the bed, slots are defined between said side wall and the front wall and the rear wall, such that a water support board may extend through said slots and across the extensible support members;
and
a latch associated with each of the first side wall and the second side wall which is actuatable to alternatively secure said side wall with respect to the peripheral frame, or to release the side wall for adjustable positioning closer or further from the peripheral frame.
