Zusammenfassung:A steerable wheelbarrow includes a pair of handles rotatably connected to the rear end of the frame of the wheelbarrow for rotation around a horizontal axis, and a pair of linkages connecting the handles to L-shaped, wheel carrying axles, which are interconnected by a separate linkage, whereby rotation of the handles in opposite directions around the horizontal axis results in rotation of the axles around parallel, vertical axes to turn the wheelbarrow. A stop mechanism limits turning of the wheels to decrease the likelihood of tipping during turning.
