Hay bale cart

A process for lifting baled hay in the form of a rectangular solid along a major axis from a surface and dispensing baled hay from a cart, the process comprising the steps of:

• providing a cart having:
• two wheels disposed relative to an axle for allowing rolling movement of the cart over the ground;
• a handle fixed with respect to the axle for pulling the wheels and axle over the ground;
• a hay-bale-receiving loader frame having at least two major sides intersecting at a major axis for confronting two major sides of hay baled in the form of a rectangular solid;
• a pivot connecting to a bale-receiving loader frame relative to the axle and handle to dispose the two major sides of the hay-bale-receiving loader frame at equal angular intervals relative to the axle;
• and,
• the pivot permitting movement of the hay-bale-receiving loader frame in a plane parallel to the axle between a hay bale lifting disposition wherein the major axis of the hay-bale-receiving loader frame is parallel to the axle and a hay bale transporting disposition wherein the major axis of the hay bale receiving loader frame is normal to the axle;
• confronting a major side of the hay-bale-receiving loader frame to the surface;
• disposing the baled hay on a major side of the hay-bale-receiving loader frame;
• elevating the baled hay with the handle relative to the axle of the cart to balance the baled hay on the axle between the wheels of the cart;
• and,
• transporting the elevated baled hay on the wheels by pulling the handle.
