Disclosed is a folding chassis of manually driven carrier vehicles, for example, hand trucks, carts, and strollers, capable of moving over uneven, soft or spongy surfaces and surmounting obstacles. The chassis includes a frame having a reference plane and an arm having a first axis and a second axis, said arm being attached rotatable around the first axis to said frame and configured for attaching rotatable, around the second axis, a wheel arrangement having a diameter at least equal to a half of a width of said frame. Said arm is configured to pivot between at least a first and a second positions of said wheel arrangement, wherein, in the first position, said wheel arrangement is generally perpendicular to said reference plane and wherein, in the second position, said wheel arrangement is adjacent and parallel to said reference plane.

1. A folding chassis comprising: a frame having a reference plane;an arm having a first axis and a second axis, said arm being attached rotatable to said frame around the first axis and configured for attaching rotatable, around the second axis, a wheel arrangement having a diameter at least equal to a half of a width of said frame,wherein said arm is configured to pivot between at least a first position and a second position of said wheel arrangement, wherein, in the first position, said wheel arrangement is generally perpendicular to said reference plane and wherein, in the second position, said wheel arrangement is adjacent and parallel to said reference plane. 2. The folding chassis of claim 1, wherein said first axis positioned at acute angles to said reference plane and to a plane perpendicular to said reference plane. 3. The folding chassis of claim 2, wherein said first axis positioned at a first angle to said reference plane in a range from about 15 to 55° and at a second angle to a plane perpendicular to said reference plane in a range from about 30 to 75°. 4. The folding chassis of claim 1, wherein said wheel arrangement comprises at least one wheel. 5. The folding chassis of claim 1, wherein said wheel arrangement comprises a plurality of wheels rotatable around axes parallel to said second axis. 6. The folding chassis of claim 5, wherein said plurality of wheels comprises three wheels positioned symmetrically relative to said second axis. 7. The folding chassis of claim 1, wherein said wheel arrangement in the second position is positioned such that it does not exceed a height of said frame. 8. The folding chassis of claim 1, further comprising a platform, said platform is configured to pivot from being generally perpendicular to said frame to being generally adjacent and parallel to said frame. 9. The folding chassis of claim 8, wherein said arm and said platform are configured to pivot simultaneously from the first position of said wheel arrangement and said platform being generally perpendicular to said frame to said wheel arrangement and said platform being generally adjacent and parallel to said reference plane and said frame respectively. 10. The folding chassis of claim 9, wherein said arm and said platform are connected by gear segments. 11. The folding chassis of claim 10, further comprising a rocker mechanism between said platform and said gear segments. 12. The folding chassis of claim 10, wherein said gear segments are having a ratio inversely proportional to corresponding angles of pivoting of said arm and said platform. 13. The folding chassis of claim 8, further comprising a support pivotally attached to said platform and linked to said frame and said platform, wherein said support configured to pivot between supporting said platform being generally perpendicular to said frame and being generally adjacent and parallel to said platform being generally adjacent and parallel to said frame. 14. The folding chassis of claim 13, wherein said support biased to pivot from an intermediate position to one of the end positions. 15. The folding chassis of claim 13, wherein, with said platform being generally perpendicular to said frame, a mutual positioning of said support, platform, and frame prevents pivoting of said platform relative to said frame. 16. The folding chassis of claim 8, wherein said wheel arrangement in said first position is configured to extend no lower than said platform when said platform is generally perpendicular to said frame and placed on a level surface.
