Adaptive wheeled carrier and transport device

摘要

A wheeled carrier for manual movement of material includes a base frame with a pair of frame rails. The frame rails are turned down at the front end with a first bracket connecting the rails and providing a mounting point for at least one wheel and a receiver between the frame rails. The wheel is positioned so that it does not extend above either of the frame rails. A second bracket extends between the frame rails and includes a release mechanism positioned between the frame rails. An attachment including a yoke may be releasably mounted to the base frame. The yoke extends between the receiver of the first bracket and the release mechanism of the second bracket and engages the receiver and the release mechanism. The attachment further including a load carrying arrangement configured to rest on the frame rails above the at least one wheel without engaging the wheel.
