Rake

A wheelbarrow assembly is disclosed with a wheelbarrow tray, a wheel to connect to the tray for rotation relative to the tray, for transportation of the tray upon an underlying support surface and a pair of handle assemblies. Each handle assembly is provided with a first unitarily formed handle portion with a distal end, an intermediate region, and a proximal end. The proximal end has a cross-section that is reduced relative to a cross-section of the intermediate region. The second handle portion is provided with a distal end and a proximal end; the proximal end having a cross-section that is sized to receive the first handle distal end cross-section therein to assemble the second handle portion to the first handle portion.

Wheelbarrow assembly

A coupling for an elongated handle and a tool head is disclosed. The coupling includes a plug member, a ferrule, and a pin member. The plug member further comprises an elongated passage formed therein receives a tool head shank of the tool head. The elongated passage is in communication with a pair of aligned plug member openings formed through the plug member. The ferrule includes a pair of aligned ferrule openings. When the plug member is partially received within the ferrule, the plug member openings align with the ferrule openings. The pin member extends through the aligned ferrule openings and the plug member openings and through an opening of the tool head shank when the tool head shank is mounted in the elongated passage. The ends of the pin member are bent at an angle to an axis extending through the elongated passage to secure the tool head shank to the plug member and ferrule.

Tool coupling arrangement

A foldable shovel structured for scooping/pushing is provided. The disclosed foldable shovel includes two arcuate members that are hinged together at one end. In the folded configuration the two arcuate members are nested. Further, the coupling device includes a locking disk assembly structured to allow the arcuate members to be configured in different positions relative to each other. Thus, the foldable shovel may be optimally configured as either a scooping device or a pushing device.

A wheelbarrow leg stabilizer having a slip resistant lower surface is provided. Preferably, the slip resistant lower surface includes a plurality of edges structured to engage the ground and thereby increase the starting friction. More preferably, the edges are part of a deformation in the leg stabilizer body. When the stabilizer body is constructed from a generally planar metal member, the deformations may be punched in the stabilizer body thereby creating openings adjacent the deformations. This configuration provides for both an edge that engages the ground but also a face that creates a larger contact surface with the ground.

Wheelbarrow leg stabilizer

A utility cart frame assembly is provided. The frame assembly includes a handle assembly cross brace member and a wheel assembly with an axle. The cross brace member and the axle are coupled to, and are immediately adjacent, the tray. In this configuration, the handle assembly cross brace member and the axle provide support to the tray.
