A cart for transporting objects onto beaches or other soft surfaces. The cart comprises a frame, a pivotable support platform, and at least two wheels. The frame includes a pair of elongated side rail members each having an upper end portion including a handle extending therebetween and a lower end portion through which an axle passes. The pair of wheels is mounted on the axle. The pivotable support platform comprises a generally planar plastic member having a pair of sides. A pair of pivot rods are provided to establish a horizontal pivot axis. The rods are coupled to the sides of the platform to enable it to be pivoted about that axis from a storage position wherein the platform is substantially flush with the frame to an operative position wherein the platform extends substantially perpendicularly to the frame. The platform includes a pair of cantilever brackets disposed therebelow and integrally molded therewith. Each of the brackets includes an elongated section having a channel with beads therein and being adapted to snap fit a respective one of the side rails therein to hold the platform in its operative position, whereupon objects can be placed thereon. The platform also comprises at least one support leg pivotably connected, which may be fitted into a beaded channel, thereto to enable the platform to assume a substantially horizontal position for loading it with the objects. The cart also includes an umbrella holder and a hanger for articles or alternatively a large carrying bag may be fitted over and attached to the frame of the cart.

A cart for transporting objects onto beaches or other soft surfaces, said cart comprising frame means, a pivotable support platform, and at least two wheels, said frame means including a pair of elongated side rail members each having an upper end portion including handle means and a lower end portion through which an axle passes, said pair of wheels being mounted on said axle, said pivotable support platform comprising a generally planar member having a pair of sides, pivot means establishing a horizontal pivot axis and being coupled to said sides to enable said platform to be pivoted about said axis from a storage position wherein said platform is substantially flush with said frame means to an operative position wherein said platform extends substantially perpendicularly to said frame means, said platform including an underside, having a pair of side lips, and a pair of cantilever brackets disposed therebelow, each of said brackets including an elongated section having a channel therein and being adapted to receive in said channel a respective one of said elongated side rails to hold said platform in its operative position, whereupon said objects can be placed thereon and solidly supported thereby, said cart also comprising at least two support legs, each leg being pivotably attached to said side lips of said platform and being individually retractable and extendable and comprising an upper section with a stop surface which abuts the underside of said platform to prevent overextension of the leg when said leg is placed in its extended position, said cart further comprising a bag installed over said frame means and attached to said handle means for carrying objects, said brackets of said side rails being of circular cross section and each channel in each of said brackets being of generally circular cross section with an entrance mouth and each of said channels comprising beads disposed adjacent said entrance mouth and along the length of said channel, said beads locking said side rails into said channels when said platform is in its operative position, said cart further comprising a second set of brackets connected to said underside of said platform, each of said second set of brackets having an inner surface facing said side lips and being positioned to form a second channel between each of said second set of brackets and each of said side lips of said platform, to receive said legs when said legs are extended, said cart further comprising a second set of beads, each of said beads being disposed along the length of the inner surface of each of said second set of brackets and being disposed on each of said side lips opposite said beads on each of said brackets, said beads being parallel to said platform, the space between said beads being less than the width of said upper section of said legs, so that when said legs are extended, said upper section is forced passed said rows of beads in a snapping action, locking said legs into position.
