Description

Andrea Eiermann Kaiserstuhlring 39 68239 Mannheim

The invention relates to a mobile cart for firewood with wheels and a holder for wood according to the preamble of the main claim.

A fireplace is usually filled with firewood. The wood is usually stored outside and sometimes even a few meters away from the stove. Baskets, boxes and other containers are usually used as means of transport. These are very heavy when loaded. Carrying them in front of the body is therefore quite laborious and can have a negative effect on the body in the form of back pain. Furthermore, freedom of movement is restricted. If you fall, there is a significant risk of injury because you cannot use your hands to support or catch yourself.

The invention is therefore based on the object of creating a mobile carriage in which the problems identified are solved and the disadvantages described are avoided. This is achieved by a carriage according to the proposed main claim.

The mobile cart with wheels and a holder for wood can be a self-supporting construction similar to a

It could be a car body or a chassis-like design similar to a bicycle frame. The wheels can be connected to the car via axle bolts.

The number of wheels and axles and their position can be fixed. The use of support legs or other aids to increase stability may also be possible.

According to the invention, the wood is picked up using a removable transport container. By removing the transport container, more flexible handling is achieved, particularly when filling areas that are difficult to access, and by then placing it on the trolley, it is easy to transport.

According to a further advantageous embodiment, a handle is provided for better handling. The design of the handle in conjunction with a frame-like construction is also conceivable. Handling can be improved even further, particularly in conjunction with a rigid axle or a suitable axle mount, since additional support forces can be exerted on the trolley by a foot insert, which ultimately stabilizes it better. Alternatively, a foot strap can also be arranged here, which is subject to a tipping force emanating from the foot.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the wheels are closed on both sides so that the combustion

pieces of wood or other objects cannot get caught in the wheels, thus preventing the wheels from locking.

According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the removable transport container is equipped with carrying straps. This has the advantage that the container can be carried on the back. This does not restrict freedom of movement. This is particularly useful when climbing stairs.

According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, a storage facility for fireplace accessories is provided. This ensures that tools for lighting a fire, fireplace tools and gloves are stored centrally and in a space-saving manner.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a transport securing unit is used for fireplace tools. This device fixes and secures the tools to the trolley. This prevents them from falling off during the journey.

Further advantages and advantageous embodiments of the invention can be found in the following description of the drawing and the claims. Examples of embodiments of the subject matter of the invention are shown in the drawing and are described in more detail below. They show:

Figure 1 shows the back of a mobile cart for firewood. The handle is marked 1 and is connected to the cart. The rigid axle 2 is also connected to the cart. A wheel 3 is attached to each end of the axle. The storage device 4 for accessories and the holders 5 for fireplace tools 6 are also connected to the cart. All of the connections mentioned can be either fixed or detachable.

In the embodiment shown in Figure 2, support feet 7 are attached to the trolley. The connection can be either fixed or detachable. A removable transport container 8 is loosely connected to the trolley.

In the embodiment according to Figure 3 and sectional drawing Figure 4, the wheel is made up of disks 9 and connected to a radially extending ring 10. Radially arranged grooves also run on the ring itself. Ring-shaped bodies 11 are inserted into these. A bearing holder 12 is connected to one of the disks

All of the connections mentioned can be either fixed or detachable.

In the embodiment shown in Figure 5, the transport container has openings 13 on the side for handling. Carrying straps 14 are attached to the back of the container. As Figure 6 shows, the carrying straps are connected at the ends to a horizontal rod 15. The connection mentioned can be either fixed or detachable. A viewing window is designated by 19.

In the example shown in Figure 7, there is an elongated hole 16 in the holder for the fireplace tools. This ends in a circular hole. The hole itself has a larger diameter than the actual elongated hole. A conical sleeve 17 is shown in Figures 7 and 8. Its largest outer diameter is smaller than that of the hole. Figure 9 shows the combination of fireplace tools, holder and transport safety unit. The tool handle 18 serves as a stop. The conical sleeve 17 is connected to the fireplace tools 6. This connection can be either fixed or detachable.
