Abstract
This disclosure is directed to a carrier, both wheeled and wheelless for transporting relatively large sheets of relatively thin material such as wall panelling, wallboard, composite board, sheetrock or the like, the carrier including a generally inverted U-shaped handle, having downwardly diverging legs whose ends are connected to a generally L-shaped elongated supporting bar upon which lower edges of the sheet material rests, the latter being the basic carrier which may further include an abutment plate or a biting plate carried at one end of the elongated supporting bar and being movable between a position in which it either abuttingly contacts upright edges of the sheet material to prevent the same from sliding edgewise from the elongated supporting bar or digs into lower edges of the sheet material to similarly prevent the latter from sliding off the elongated supporting bar, and at least two wheels supported by the elongated supporting bar, one of the wheels being disposed with its axis in fixed normal relationship to the longitudinal axis of the elongated supporting bar, and the remaining wheel having a swivel axis to permit full 360.degree. rotation.
