An automatic garbage-collecting cart including a cart body, a collecting mechanism and a handle portion. When the cart body runs forward, a wheel shaft is driven to rotate the collecting mechanism which includes multiple spiral plates. The collecting mechanism is secured on the wheel shaft which sweeps up the garbage or debris on the ground. A stopper board is disposed at a rear end of the cart body to deflect the swept up garbage into the cart body.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] An automatic garbage-collecting cart comprising a box-like cart body, a collecting mechanism and a handle portion, wherein:the cart body is a box-like container which has a bottom portion, a front end, a rear end, and two sides for receiving the collected garbage and equipped with cart wheels having a wheel shaft mounted to the cart body for moving forward, wherein a beam is engaged to and disposed above the rear end; andthe handle portion extends from the rear end of the cart body for pushing the cart body, said garbage-collecting cart being characterized in that:the collecting mechanism includes a rotary shaft and multiple spiral plates disposed thereon, the rotary shaft being operatively powered by the wheel shaft of the cart wheels, the spiral plates being arranged into a spiral pattern and attached to the rotary shaft, each of said spiral plates having a sweeping portion on an edge opposite to the rotary shaft, the sweeping portion being made of resilient material and engaged to each of the spiral plates, whereby when the spiral plates sweeps over the ground, the debris on the surface of the ground can be swept up and collected, the spiral plates being secured on the rotary shaft by fixing pins, wherein each of the spiral plates have a length such that when the spiral plates revolve about the rotary shaft, the spiral plates just sweep over the ground;the cart body having an opening at the rear end, a pivotable board and an arch stopper board being secured to the cart, one end of the pivotable board being pivotally connected with the bottom portion of the rear end of the cart body and the other end of the pivotable board being connected to a flexible wire engaging the rear end at an angle, the arch stopper board being spaced from the rear end of the pivotable board and having a curvature to guide the debris swept up from the ground into the rear end of the cart body;wherein the flexible wire runs from the handle portion over the beam and secured to the pivotable board, so that the flexible wire can be pulled at the handle portion to pivot the pivotable board upward; whereby the debris on the ground is swept upward and rearward by the collecting mechanism to be deflected by the arch stopper board and dropped onto the pivotable board, and wherein, when excessive debris is accumulated, the pivotable board can be pivoted upward by the flexible wire to push and compact the debris forward in the cart to permit additional debris to be disposed into the cart.
