  • Publication number: 20020187027
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a manual transport device for user in transporting a keg. The keg has a hand hole, typically near the top of the keg. The transport device includes a frame, an engagement member, a stabilizer and a rolling member. The engagement means is located on the frame so that, in use, the engagement means engages the hand hole on the keg and substantially supports the keg. The device thus supports the keg free of any support members extending from the bottom of the device to support the underside of the keg. The stabilizer is attached to the frame and, in use, inhibits lateral movement of the keg relative to the frame. The rolling member is attached to the frame and is adapted to support the frame so that the transport device may be rolled along a surface when engaging the keg.
