Wheeled cart

A rolling cart comprising:

• a frame unit defining an interior space in which items are transportable;
• a wheel, the wheel having a boundary defined by a circumference, a left edge maximum extent, and a right edge maximum extent;
• a handle removably supported from the frame, the cart moved and controlled by the handle;
• the interior space at least partly within the boundary;
• an oarlock mount which can support the handle from the frame unit when the wheel lies in a position such that a plane in which the circumference lies is roughly parallel to a plane in which a water surface lies;
• and
• a paddle end fitted to a distal end of the handle when the handle is supported by the oarlock mount;
• wherein
• the cart possesses sufficient buoyancy to float along with the transportable items and a passenger.

A rolling cart comprising:

• a wheel, the wheel having a boundary defined by a circumference, a left edge maximum extent, and a right edge maximum extent;
• a handle removably supported from the frame, the cart moved and controlled by the handle;
• and
• the interior space at least partly within the boundary;
• and
• the wheel further comprising:
• an inner surface rotatably supported from the frame unit;
• and
• an inflatable segment connected to the inner surface and arranged within the circumference to support the cart;
• and
• usable in conjunction with a pump, the inflatable segment comprising plural inflatable segments, and the wheel further comprising:
• an inflation fluid manifold constructed and arranged to communicate with the pump for communicating inflation fluid with the inflation fluid manifold;
• plural bi-directional valves corresponding to the plural inflatable segments communicating inflation fluid between the inflation fluid manifold and the plural inflatable segments;
• the plural bi-directional valves constructed and arranged to substantially freely admit the inflation fluid from the manifold into an inflatable segment at a manifold pressure higher than a segment pressure, and to exhaust inflation fluid from the inflatable segment into the manifold only at a segment pressure higher than a manifold pressure by at least an increment provided by a combination of a load of the cart and action of the bi-directional pump communicating inflation fluid out of the inflation fluid manifold;
• and wherein the plural bi-directional valves are reed valves further comprising:
• a valve body having a passage defined through the valve body between the inflation fluid manifold and the inflatable segment, the passage having an edge;
• a reed affixed to the edge of the passage, having one surface toward the inflation fluid manifold and another surface toward the inflatable segment, and bendable toward the inflation fluid manifold or the inflatable segment through the passage;
• and
• a spring disposed substantially adjacent to one surface of the reed such that a higher pressure is required to bend the reed toward the inflation fluid manifold than toward the inflatable segment.
