ABSTRACT:
A motorized cart for lifting and transporting a drum. The cart includes a frame defining at its forward end a rearward-extending frame recess for receiving a drum, a feature for engaging the lower end of a drum and supporting the drum within the frame recess, another feature for engaging an upper end of the drum when received in the frame recess, first wheels at the lower extent of the frame, and non-driven wheels above and rearward of the first wheels. At least one of the first wheels is a drive wheel disposed adjacent the left or right side of the frame. A drive system includes a motor, a clutch for selectively engaging the motor with the drive wheel, and a battery for providing power to the motor and clutch. The motor is controlled to vary the rotational speed and direction of the drive wheel, and power from the battery can be controlled to enable the cart to be manually or self-propelled.
