ABSTRACT:
A portable multi-directional hand truck A is illustrated including a frame 10 having a toe plate 14 and a pair of rear indexing wheel assemblies B. Indexing mechanism D is connected between the frame 10 and a contoured wheel C in each wheel assembly having a first position in which wheels C are aligned for forward movement and a second position for movement transverse to the forward movement. Wheels C include a contoured surface 54 for forward movement and a rounded contoured surface 56 for transverse movement. Surface 56 provides a rounded support surface over which the load may be broken and transported in which configuration the load is supported in a raised position for transporting long loads transversely down narrow passageways without dragging and sagging ends of a long load.
