Transport and display trolleys

A transport and display trolley comprising a lower platform, rollers mounted on the lower platform for shifting the trolley, two fixed grills and a movable grill, the three grills being vertically disposed and defining a space for receiving objects to be transported and being carried by the lower platform, at least one foldable shelf pivotably mounted on one of the fixed grills, the other fixed grill being opposed to said one fixed grill and having a transverse support means for said foldable shelf, said foldable shelf being pivotable between a folded back position in which it is folded against said one fixed grill and a horizontal position parallel to the platform, in which horizontal position said foldable shelf is supported on said support means;

• an openable gate movable from a closed position and an open position inwardly of said space defined by the grills and capable of interconnecting said two fixed grills in said closed position and disposed above said foldable shelf and slightly set back relative to an outer edge of said foldable shelf in said closed position whereby it precludes the pivoting of said foldable shelf to said folded back position and the unloading of said foldable shelf so long as the gate is in said closed position;
• and a fixed gate disposed above the lower platform connecting said two fixed grills together.
