Abstract: A foldable hand cart formed with a platform in front and frames extended to form a high back. The cart is collapsible to form a compact assembly bound together by an elastic cord. The platform is automatically locked when unfolded, as are the frames when raised in consecutive order. Simple controls serve to unlock the frames and platform for movements collapsing the cart. Interfitting safeguards reinforce the frames against separating, pivoting and twisting strains.
