A luggage carrier comprising a base portion, and a handle assembly extending upwardly from the base portion, the handle assembly including a pair of spaced-apart rods attached to the base portion and extending upwardly therefrom, each of said spaced-apart rods including a laterally inwardly extending intermediate portion so that the upper ends of the spaced-apart rods are closer together than the lower ends of the spaced-apart rods, a pivot rod extending between said pair of rods adjacent the upper ends thereof and above said laterally inwardly extending intermediate portions, a generally U-shaped hand portion pivotally attached to said pivot rod, the U-shaped hand portion including a pair of side portions which extend generally parallel to and inwardly of said spaced-apart rods and which are pivotally attached to said pivot rod and a connecting portion which extends generally perpendicularly between said side portions, the hand portion being pivotable between a use position in which the side portions extend upwardly from the pivot rod and generally parallel to said pair of rods and a storage position in which the side portions extend downwardly from the pivot rod generally parallel to and inwardly of said spaced-apart rods, a first locking tube slidably mounted on each of the side portions of the U-shaped hand portion, a second locking tube secured to each of the first locking tubes, a connecting rod extending between both of said first locking tubes whereby all of the locking tubes can be raised and lowered simultaneously by moving said connecting rod, each of the second locking tubes being slidable over the upper end of one of said of pair of rods when the hand portion is in the use position whereby the hand portion is locked against pivotal movement with respect to said pair of rods, the intermediate portions of the spaced-apart rods spacing the lower ends of the spaced-apart rods a sufficient distance apart so that the locking tubes can be positioned between the spaced-apart rods when the hand portion is in the storage position.
