Abstract
A trolley as disclosed for manual transport of loads. The trolley comprises one or more wheels, an axle, a pair of handles which extend upwardly when the trolley is in an upright, non-travel position, a load carrying frame extending forward from the handles, and a pair of spaced support legs extending down from the load carrying frame and positioned either side of the one or more wheels. The support legs are adapted to support the load carrying frame substantially parallel to a support surface, such as the ground, when the trolley is in the upright, non-travel position.
Claims22
A trolley for manual transport of loads, wherein the trolley is moveable between a travel position and an upright, non-travel, loading position, wherein the trolley comprises:
- one or more wheels;
- an axle operatively coupled to the one or more wheels;
- a pair of handles connected directly or indirectly to the axle, the handles extending upwardly when the trolley is in the loading position;
- a load carrying frame for supporting a load extending forward at a fixed angle from the handles, and wherein the load carrying frame is above the one or more wheels when the trolley is in the loading position;
- and
- a pair of spaced support legs extending down from the load carrying frame, the pair of legs adapted to bear against a support surface and to support the load carrying frame substantially parallel to the support surface when the trolley is in the loading position,
- wherein the one or more wheels are positioned between the pair of spaced support legs;
- and
- wherein moving the pair of handles towards the support surface causes the pair of spaced support legs to be raised from the support surface and moves the trolley from the loading position to the travel position.
