Every gardener knows how difficult it is to bring water for watering beds or trees during dry periods. Many use large tanks or bidons with a capacity of 35—40 liters, mounting them on carts. But lifting and removing such a bidon is far beyond everyone’s strength.
A — transport position; B — filling bidon at column; C — water drainage
The design of a cart I made significantly facilitates these operations. Its folding frame consists of two parts—upper and lower. The bidon is in a suspended state and is moved from the cart to the ground and vice versa using a lever installed on the upper frame. To ensure stability at this moment, special supports are fixed on the lower frame. In winter, skis can be attached to these supports.
