Easy load trailer

A trailer comprising:

• a frame;
• at least one wheel coupled to the frame;
• a platform pivotably coupled to the frame and moveable between a loading position and a transport position, wherein the platform comprises a first section and a second section that is generally perpendicular to the first section, wherein the first section is generally horizontal when the platform is in the loading position, wherein the second section is generally vertical when the platform is in the loading position, wherein the first section is configured to be adjacent a ground surface that supports the wheel when the platform is in the loading position, and wherein the platform pivots no more than approximately 60 degrees between the loading position and the transport position;
• and
• a link coupled to the frame and to the second section of the platform, wherein the link is operable to move the platform between the loading position and the transport position, wherein the link prevents the platform from rotating more than approximately 60 degrees between the loading position and the transport position, wherein the link is moveable between an extended position and a retracted position, wherein the platform is in the loading position when the link is in the extended position, and wherein the platform is in the transport position when the link is in the retracted position, wherein the link comprises a ratchet, a lever coupled to the ratchet, a switch coupled to the ratchet and moveable between first and second positions, a first extender coupled to the ratchet, and a second extender coupled to the ratchet, wherein rotation of the lever when the switch is in the first position extends the first and second extenders away from the ratchet, and wherein rotation of the lever when the switch is in the second position retracts the first and second extenders toward the ratchet.
