ABSTRACT:
A hand truck having side frame rails which are hinged near the center to fold and act as ground engaging stabilizers for supporting the structure in a step stool configuration. Cross braces between the frame rails serve as steps and the bed of the truck becomes the top platform of the step stool. The truck has a retractable extension bed, which, in the step stool configuration, interlocks with the folded frame rail portion to form a rigid triangular braced structure. Normal use of the unit as a load carrying hand truck is not compromised by the step stool forming elements.
