BACKGROUND

The present general inventive concept relates generally to a cart, and particularly, to a lawn mower deck cart.

2. Description of the Related Art

Typically, lawn mowers are big and bulky machines that require a vast amount of space for storage. Moreover, performing maintenance on lawn mowers can be highly difficult due to size and/or weight of the lawn mower.

Additionally, a lawn mower has no ability to change orientation from a horizontal position. In other words, the lawn mower is usually disposed in a parallel plane to a ground during use as well as storage. Unfortunately, changing the orientation of the lawn mower is not feasibly unless the lawn mower is titled against a wall, which can be dangerous.

Therefore, there is a need for a lawn mower deck cart that facilitates storage of a lawn mower deck and can store the lawn mower in multiple positions.

SUMMARY

The present general inventive concept provides a lawn mower deck cart.

The foregoing and/or other features and utilities of the present general inventive concept may be achieved by providing a lawn mower deck cart, including a plurality of rear rods to receive a lawn mower deck thereon, a plurality of front rods disposed a first distance away from the plurality of rear rods to receive the lawn mower deck thereon, such that the lawn mower deck is disposed between the plurality of rear rods and the plurality of front rods, and a plurality of wheels disposed on at least a portion of the rear rods to facilitate movement of the plurality of rear rods and the plurality of front rods while the plurality of wheels are disposed on a planar surface.

The plurality of rear rods may include a first rear rod, and a second rear rod disposed a second distance away from the first rear rod.

The first rear rod may be disposed in parallel with the second rear rod.

The plurality of front rods may include a first front rod, and a second front rod disposed a second distance away from the first front rod.

The first front rod may be disposed in parallel with the second front rod.

The plurality of wheels may facilitate movement in response to tilting the plurality of rear rods and the plurality of front rods at an angle with respect to the planar surface.

The lawn mower deck cart may further include a plurality of base rods disposed between the plurality of rear rods and the plurality of front rods to stabilize the plurality of rear rods and the plurality of front rods in a vertical position with respect to the planar surface.

The lawn mower deck cart may further include a handlebar disposed on at least a portion of the plurality of rear rods to facilitate gripping thereof.

The lawn mower deck cart may further include a plurality of protecting rods disposed between each of the plurality of rear rods and each of the plurality of front rods to absorb an impact from the lawn mower deck thereon.
