Knock-down wheelbarrow and fastening devices therefor

摘要

The knock-down wheelbarrow includes four side units and a bottom unit that are generally planar. The side units and bottom unit form an open topped box structure. These units have respective interfacing surface portions that are adjacent each other. A plurality of partial bores are located on the interfacing surface portions. The side units and bottom unit are attached together via fastener pins. Each pin has radially protruding serrations and the serrations along each end length of each pin are oppositely disposed. Each pin is inserted into a pair of partial bores thereby locking the interfacing surfaces together. The knock-down wheelbarrow also includes a pair of support beams and each support beam includes a partial bore on a top surface, a partial bore on a bottom surface and a lateral through bore at a fore end of the beam. The wheelbarrow also includes a pair of legs having top end interfacing surfaces with partial bores therein. Fastener pins attach each leg to the bottom surface of a support beam. The knock-down wheelbarrow also includes a wheel with an axial through passage and an insertable, lockable axle which is adapted to be inserted through both lateral through bores of the support beams and the axial passage of the wheel when the wheel is intermediate the support beams.
