2 shows a perspective view of a uniaxial handcart according to the invention for transporting the planter without bucket and

3 shows the handcart the 2 with charged planter.

The 1 and 2 illustrate in an exploded view and in a perspective view, as an inventive uniaxial handcart 10 or plant caddy 11 is constructed.

The plant caddy 11 has a telescopic, two-part handle 30 on. The upper section of this handle 301 includes the handle portion 32 , which in slight inclination to the remaining handle 30 is arranged. At the grip section 32 the handle is a round tube, which then merges into a square tube. In the square section of the upper section of the handle 301 is a height-adjustable and by means of a quick-release device 66 lockable locking device 60 arranged.

The upper section of the handle 301 is in the lower section of the handle 302 insertable and by means of a leaf spring 37 with locking pin 38 , which is in one of several holes 39 in the lower section of the handle 302 can engage, fixable in different positions. As a result, a length adjustment of the handle 30 and an ergonomic handle length adjustment to different sized people possible.

The lower section of the handle 302 has a hole with attached sleeve 34 on, as the (fixed) axis 20 (or alternatively as a journal for a rotating axis, not shown) is used. At the end sections of the sleeves 34 (or alternatively a sleeve mounted in the circumferential axis, not shown) is in each case on a journal 21 rotatably mounted an impeller 22 arranged. Furthermore, at the lower portion of the handle 302 an attack 36 arranged on which the bearing surface 40 as described below can support.

A support surface 40 or loading shovel is a sheet metal part and has a largely flat cargo area 41 on that by support bars 42 is reinforced. At her the handle 30 facing longitudinal side, the support surface 40 an upward kink on. The bending angle is in particular at least 90 °, preferably slightly more than 90 °.

The formed in this way, rear, upwardly directed section 44 the bearing surface 40 has a centrally located recess, so that two rear sections 441 . 442 are formed. Their upper edges 461 . 462 are each a sleeve 481 . 482 bent, which embrace the axis and thus the bearing surface 40 pivotable on the axle 20 Fasten.

The bearing surface 40 this way can be up to the handle 30 folded out and allows in this position a space-saving storage of the cart 10 , In down tilted position of the support surface 40 can the bearing surface 40 be loaded without her flipping down, as her rear, upturned section 44 in a predetermined maximum angle to the handle 30 at the described stop 36 is supported.

The height of the rear, upturned section 44 the bearing surface 40 essentially corresponds to the radius of the wheels 22 , That's how the cargo bed comes in 41 when passing through an appropriate position of the handle 30 par Allel is aligned to the ground, in the immediate vicinity of the ground. Thus, and due to their low material thickness, the bearing surface 40 or loading shovel are easily pushed under a transportable, standing on the ground Good.

At the rear, upturned section 44 the bearing surface 40 is an investment facility 50 arranged, which consist of two symmetrical portions 501 . 502 which is symmetrical to the handle 30 formed axis are arranged. The two parts of the investment facility 501 . 502 are each triangular in shape and on a side surface with the rear, facing up portion 44 the bearing surface 40 screwed. In each case, another side of the triangular investment components 501 . 502 is oriented inwards and serves for a loaded good as a contact surface 54 , This page may also be smooth and straight, as shown, but it could alternatively have a camber. At this contact surface 54 an object to be transported can be supported and / or centered and thereby secured in its position. The triangular shape of investment facility shares 501 . 502 is particularly suitable for supporting arched objects such as tubs or plant troughs, as it prevents lateral rolling of the objects.

Furthermore, it is on the handle 30 arranged locking device 60 for securing a plant container 12 formed in a supported position. The locking device 60 has for this purpose a downwardly pointing hook structure 62 with a largely perpendicular to the handle 30 extending upper section 621 , and one largely parallel to the handle 30 running, down-facing section 622 on. To transport a bucket or plant trough 12 has this hook structure 62 at the bottom of its upper section 661 a shape 64 on, which by lowering the locking device 60 over an upper edge of a bucket or plant trough to be transported 12 can be pushed. This ensures a good backup of the plant trough 12 his situation. In addition, the down-facing section 622 the hook structure 62 be so long and have such a low material thickness, that it in a in a transportable planter 12 existing soil can be inserted. In this way, an even better backup of the planter 12 respectively.

The charging position and securing of a transportable planter is in 3 visible, noticeable.

After pushing the support surface 40 under the planters to be transported 12 and its supporting orientation to the abutment 50 becomes the planter 12 by lowering the locking device 60 on the handle 30 fixed. The transport can now be done safely and easily by the handcart 10 over the handle 30 is tilted so that the bearing surface 40 along with the charged planter 12 lifted from the ground. Subsequently, by simple and less power-consuming roles, a safe and targeted change of location.
