Abstract
A wheeled apparatus includes a base having sides, a front, rear, upper surface and lower surface, with a pair of leaves forming sides of the base and pivotally connected thereto and a pair of gates forming the front and rear and pivotally connected to the base and leaves. A handle subassembly and a leg subassembly are connected to the base, with a wheel subassembly connected to the leg subassembly. The apparatus is configurable in a cart mode, a table mode with gates and leaves oriented in a flat horizontal plane, a dolly mode with leaves and gates connected to form a cart but with leg subassembly lowered closer to the ground relative to the cart mode, and a stowage mode, where the leaves and gates collapse into the base, the handle subassembly retracts into the base, and the leg subassembly collapses up into the lower surface of the base.
