ABSTRACT:
A cart, particularly for transporting dead animals within a livestock building, having an elongated platform which extends substantially horizontally and is of an upwardly opening concave configuration. One end of the platform has a wheel assembly disposed thereunder, which wheel assembly includes an axle having a pair of coaxially aligned rollers positioned closely adjacent one another. A guide flange projects outwardly and downwardly from this end of the platform to facilitate the slidable displacement of an animal onto the platform. An elongated handle extends outwardly and upwardly from the other end of the platform and is manually engageable so that a person can pull the cart having the animal thereon. The cart is maintained with the platform spaced slightly upwardly from the floor, whereby the animal is balanced over the support axle while permitting a part of the animal to be slidably dragged along the floor. A winch assembly is mounted on the handle and the cable thereof extends substantially horizontally over the platform for engagement with the animal to facilitate pulling the animal upwardly over the guide flange onto the platform.
