ABSTRACT:
A mounting device that quickly releases one end of a wheel barrow axle for wheel removal. In a first embodiment, the existing axle end cups (32) are reused. This embodiment comprises a sheath (5) bolted to the barrow frame rail (37) in place of an axle end cup. The fastening plate (34) of the original cup is held in the sheath by a compression spring (6) around the axle between the cup and wheel hub (39). To release the cup from the sheath, the cup is manually pushed toward the wheel against the spring force. A second embodiment replaces an axle end cup with two plates (11, 12) that are hinged together, defining a cup between them, and which pivot apart upon removal of a spring clip (21) to release the axle.
