Claim Text:
1. A transformative hand cart comprising: a cart body having an upper surface, a bottom surface, a left side, a right side opposite the left side of the cart body, a first end, and a second end opposite the first end of the cart body; a first handle member rotatably coupled to the first end of the cart body; a second handle member rotatably coupled to the second end of the cart body, the first and second handle members having a storing position and an operating position along a handle translation path, the storing position including the first and second handle members at least partially recessed into the body, the operating position including a distal end of the first and second handle members disposed a distance away from the cart body; a left support rail rotatably coupled to the left side of the cart body; a right support rail rotatably coupled to the right side of the cart body, the left and right support rails having a storing position and an operating position along a rail translation path, the storing position including the left and right support rails at least partially recessed into the upper surface of the body, the operating position including the left and right support rails disposed at a substantially perpendicular orientation to the upper surface of the cart body; a first end support member rotatably coupled to the first end of the cart body; a second end support member rotatably coupled to the second end of the cart body, at least one of the first and second end support members defining a substantially planar support surface, the first and second end support members having a storing position and an operating position along an end support translation path, the storing position including the first and second end support members at least partially recessed into the upper surface of the body, the operating position including the first and second end support members disposed at a substantially perpendicular orientation to the upper surface of the cart body; and a plurality of wheels coupled to the body, the first and second handle members each having a plurality of handle arms laterally extending from, and rotatable with respect to, the cart body, the plurality of handle arms each having two portions telescopically coupled to another and each having at least two cross members each separating a width between the plurality of handle arms, each of the at least two cross members including a substantially planar outer surface, the substantially planar outer surface of each of the at least two cross members are coplanar and parallel with one another and placed in a raised configuration above the upper surface of the cart body when the at least one of the first and second handle members are placed in the storing position.
