Abstract

A cart having a bed with auxiliary wheels on the front end, front and rear legs depending from the bed and pivotally mounted to the bed, means for shifting the front legs to elevate the front of the cart so that it can be thrust into an ambulance with a high deck with the auxiliary wheels rolling on the deck and the front and rear legs swinging rearwardly to a collapsed condition. The front legs are also adapted to swing in the forward direction while the rear legs swing rearwardly in order to change the level of the cart when it is in a horizontal attitude.
