Structure of mechanism |
Function |
This cart has the ability to switch the front and rear wheels to occupy less space and to prevent the cart from rolling during transport in the trunk of a car. The bar connecting the handle can also retreat to the interior of the cart. This can greatly reduce the size of a cart and so easy transportation in a car. |
