A handle height adjusting mechanism includes a handle with an upper rod portion having a grip, and a lower rod portion for slidably supporting the upper rod portion. The upper rod portion has a lever turnably attached thereto. The lever has an engaging projection adapted to fit into engaging holes of the lower rod portion. The lever is constantly urged by springs in a direction which allows the engaging projection to fit in any one of the engaging holes. The upper rod portion has a stopper turnably attached thereto preventing a cancellation of the engagement between the engaging projection and an engaging hole. The stopper has a presser portion, and brake portions for contacting the lower rod portion when the presser portion covers the lever, so as to stop the turning movement of the stopper. Thus, when the engaging projection is in engagement with an engaging hole, the turning movement of the lever is inhibited and hence the engagement between the engaging projection and the engaging hole cannot be canceled.

A mechanism for adjusting the height of a handle (11) of a handcart, comprising said handle (11), and including an upper rod portion (14) having a grip (16), and a lower rod portion (15) for vertically and slidably supporting the upper rod portion (14); one of said upper and lower rod portions (14,

A mechanism for adjusting the height of a handle (11) of a handcart, comprising said handle (11), and including an upper rod portion (14) having a grip (16), and a lower rod portion (15) for vertically and slidably supporting the upper rod portion (14); one of said upper and lower rod portions (14, 15) forming a sleeve, while the respective other rod portion forms an insert adapted to be received with one insert end in said sleeve; said insert comprising a plurality of vertically aligned engaging holes (20); said sleeve having a lever (21) turnably attached to said sleeve, said lever having an engaging projection (25) adapted to fit in any one of said engaging holes (20); spring means (26) arranged for constantly urging said lever (21) in a direction which allows said engaging projection (25) to fit in any one of said engaging holes (20); said sleeve further comprising a stopper (28) turnably attached to said sleeve for preventing a cancellation of the engagement between said engaging projection (25) and a respective engaging hole (20); said stopper (28) comprising a presser portion (29) having an area sufficient in size for covering at least part of said lever (21) when said stopper (28) is in a predetermined positional relation to said lever (21), and brake portions (30) extending outwardly of an axis of rotation of said stopper (28) for contacting said insert when said presser portion (29) is covering at least part of said lever (21), so as to stop a turning movement of said stopper (28), whereby when said engaging projection is in engagement with a respective engaging hole, the turning movement of said lever (21) is inhibited and so that cancellation of the engagement between said engaging projection (25) and said engaging hole (20) is avoided.
