Abstract: In one example, a mother cart is provided that is suitable for transporting a daughter cart. The mother cart includes a base frame having a group of wheels configured to allow the mother cart to be moved. The base frame, in turn, includes a loading bay for receiving the daughter cart, and a support surface for supporting the daughter cart. Finally, the base frame includes a primary restraint mechanism for engaging and securing the daughter cart in the loading bay.

Abstract: In one example, a mother cart is provided that is suitable for transporting a daughter cart. The mother cart includes a lower frame, an upper frame connected to the lower frame, and the lower frame includes wheels configured to allow the mother cart to be moved. The lower frame also includes support guides configured to support the daughter cart in a raised position to provide a predetermined ground clearance, and the lower frame has two open sides so as to provide for two-way loading and unloading of the daughter cart on the mother cart.
