Abstract
A wheelbarrow specially adapted for selective manual or machine deployment. The preferred embodiment comprises a wheelbarrow having a generally conventional tub hingedly secured to a frame with a latching means opposite. The tubular handles and tongue are slideably adjustable for mode with the handles also rotatively adjustable for ergonomics. The two wheel axle placement towards the center of gravity allows for lighter handle and tongue loads, enabling wheelbarrow conversion to trailer and vice versa easily even in the fully loaded condition. Two embodiments of the wheelbarrow with integrated trailering and dumping capabilities are disclosed, one having single and the other having double pivoting tub dump mechanisms.
