Abstract: A braking system for a wheelbarrow comprises a brake assembly which includes a band-type braking member and a link member connected to the braking member, wherein the braking member encircles more than about one half of the outer circumference of the wheel flange of the wheel. The wheelbarrow braking system further comprises a cable having a first end and a second end, the first end connected to the link member, and a brake applicator operatively connected to the second end of the cable, the brake applicator configured to apply a tensioning stress to the cable and to enable movement of the link member such that the movement of the link member can cause a frictional contact of the band-type braking member against the outer circumference of the wheel flange of the wheel for applying a braking action to the wheel.
