The disclosed invention is a means of transporting items such as those commonly taken to the beach or on a picnic over sandy or otherwise yielding terrain. The device is comprised of a wheeled, collapsible frame including a bottom frame suitable for supporting larger objects such as an ice chest. The disclosed invention also includes an upper frame which supports a pliable receptacle that is of sufficient size to hold a multitude of miscellaneous items such as blankets, beach toys, clothes, food, etc. The invention includes a retractable chair hanger to support a plurality of folding chairs in a hanging fashion thereby providing a stable environment for transporting the chairs with little risk of loosing the chairs when traveling over rough terrain. The frame is such that it allows foldability to such an extent that it collapses to a size that can be easily stored and transported.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A collapsible cart comprising:a pair of wheels rotateably attached to a lower frame, the lower frame including a platform, the platform being capable of supporting an object such as an ice chest and the lower frame also including a lower locking means attached thereto;at least one rear leg having one end pivotally attached to said lower frame and the other end pivotally attached to a front leg, the front leg also including at least one locking pin;a handle with one end pivotally attached to said front leg;an upper frame comprised of two substantially parallel side rails, each rail being pivotally attached to said handle toward the opposite end of said front leg;at least one frame gusset joined to and disposed away from the pivotally attached end of said upper frame and supported by said handle;a receptacle, the upper end being open and supported by said parallel side rails;a back support attached to the lower frame and the upper frame, thereby limiting movement of one to the other; anda handle locking means to secure said handle in a predetermined position with respect to said front leg, whereby when said lower frame is positioned substantially parallel to a supportive surface and supported thereon by said wheels, with said front leg and said handle secured one to another in a distended position, and said upper frame being pivotally displaced from said handle and limited by said back support, the lower locking means receiving said at least one locking pin, the combination made rigid also with said frame gusset, thereby placing said receptacle in an open position, the combination being suitable for accommodating and transporting objects over terrain consistent with the soft sand of a beach, and when empty, the combination can be folded such that said handle, front leg, upper frame, lower frame and said at least one rear leg can be pivotally manipulated to be in close proximity to one other, thereby collapsing into a minimal space for easy and convenient storage.
