A trailer comprising a load bearing section, a wheel carrying assembly and a draw bar. The load bearing section and the wheel carrying assembly are relatively displaceable between a conventional towing position (FIG. 1, FIG. 5) and a position in which the wheel carrying assembly supports the trailer in a substantially vertical disposition (FIG. 3, FIG. 7) for stowage.

A trailer comprising: a load bearing section having a front end and a rear end; a wheel carrying assembly constructed and arranged to, in a first position and in association with a towing vehicle, support said load bearing section in a substantially horizontal disposition for towing in the conventional manner comprising, a wheel mounting axis extending transversely to the normal direction of travel of said load bearing section, and means for allowing arcuate displacement of said axis with respect to said load bearing section from said first position to a second position towards said rear end of said load bearing section; a pair of wheels mounted on said wheel carrying assembly at spaced positions on said wheel mounting axis; guide means mounted on said load bearing section adjacent the front edge thereof and projecting below the underside thereof; a draw bar passing through said guide means in sliding relationship therewith and projecting beyond the front end of said load bearing section, and means to pivotally connect said draw bar to said wheel carrying assembly to be displaceable therewith with respect to said load bearing section so that displacement of said wheel mounting axis from said first position to said second position displaces said draw bar through said guide means thereby reducing the projection of said draw bar beyond the front end of said load bearing section.
