Abstract

A hand truck with the ability to climb stairs would decrease the possibility of injury from having to lift a wheeled cart or its contents over an obstruction. If successful, this device should provide increased safety both in the home and in the workplace. Also, it is hoped that a simple stair-climbing device such as this one might increase public acceptance of other, more complex stair-climbing devices such as wheelchairs.
