  • Patent number: 6805269
    Abstract: A packable cart includes a pair of telescopic side rails with cross members removably positioned therebetween. A pair of wheels are received by the side rails for transportation. A pole handle extends from the ends of the side rails opposite the end near which the wheels are positioned. The packable cart is made of lightweight material and readily assembled and disassembled. A backpack is provided for receiving the cart in its disassembled state. The backpack also serves as a sling between the side rails which, when provided with an inflatable mattress, provides a bed rest. The pole handles are selectively rotatable to serve as support legs when it is desired that the cart be immobile and serve as a bed. The quick assembly of the cart is achieved, in part, by the provision of pin assemblies fixedly received by and operative in association with the cross members.
