Fold-out trailer with retractable wheel assembly

A trailer, comprising:

• a trailer frame having a hitch;
• a stationary support base joined to the trailer frame;
• two support plates slidably guided on the support base toward and away from each other;
• a pair of wheel assemblies, wherein a wheel assembly is mounted to an end of each of the support plates remote from the other support plate such that a distance between the wheel assemblies varies with movement of the support plates on the support base;
• a pair of drive links wherein a drive link is joined to each of the support plates;
• a drive mechanism joined to the drive links and configured to selectively move the support plates toward or away from each other;
• a floor secured to the frame;
• two wall assemblies wherein the wall assemblies are disposed opposite each other and pivotally joined to the floor with a hinge, each wall assembly being movable from a first position wherein the wall assembly is lying parallel to the floor to a second position where the wall assembly is substantially perpendicular to the floor;
• and
• a canopy joined to extending between the wall assemblies to form an enclosure, the canopy comprising an outer fabric material and an inner fabric material spaced apart from the outer fabric material, each of the outer fabric materials connected to and extending between the wall assemblies, wherein each of the outer fabric material and the inner fabric material is fixedly connected to the wall assemblies from when each of the wall assemblies is in the first position to when each of the wall assemblies is in the second position, and wherein each of the wall assemblies includes a slotted channel for each of the outer fabric material and the inner fabric material, wherein material of each of the outer fabric material and the inner fabric material extend out of a slot of each corresponding slotted channel.
