  • Wheelbarrow bin wall extension apparatus
    Patent number: 5374095
    Abstract: A wheelbarrow side wall extension apparatus (10) for attachment to a wheelbarrow (12) is disclosed herein. The apparatus (10) includes a flexible barrier (14) coupled between an upper rail (26) and a lower rail (28), the lower rail (28) being configured for coupling to the rim (36) of a wheelbarrow bin (12). A plurality of vertical support members (42) coupled between the upper rail (26) and the lower rail (28) rail add structural integrity to the apparatus (10). Each support member (42) is coupled to a corresponding reinforcement bracket (48) which provides lateral stability by abutting the walls (54) of a wheelbarrow bin (12). A tensioning device (56) draws the opposing sides (20, 22) of the flexible barrier (14) toward the inside of the wheelbarrow bin (12), thus insuring that the entire apparatus (10) remains firmly upon the wheelbarrow bin (12).
