ABSTRACT:
A collapsible tow cart for transporting a load of beach items over sandy terrain to a beach site. The cart whose structure, save for the wheels, is fabricated of light weight metal tubing, has three basic components: the first of which is a rectangular main frame having parallel sides and upturned ends to define a carrying bed for the beach items. Perpendicular to the main frame and attached to the front thereof in a T-formation are the parallel sides of a rectangular cross frame whose down-turned ends are V-shaped. The apexes of these ends lie below the main frame and are joined by a transverse axle. Mounted on this axle in the open region between the ends of the cross frame and the sides of the main frame are two identical balls which function as cart wheels. The third component is a rectangular loop whose parallel sides are pivotally connected at a point adjacent the lower end thereof to the corresponding sides of the main frame at the rear thereof, whereby in the erect state of the loop, the lower end functions as a ground rest and the upper end as a handle to pull the cart, the loop being foldable over the main frame to collapse the cart.
