Description:
FIELD 
       [0001]    This disclosure relates generally to a Wheelbarrow Attachment. 
       BACKGROUND 
       [0002]    Gardeners, construction workers, farmers, and other wheelbarrow users must often transport various items in addition to the load contained in their wheelbarrow bin. These items may include tools such as shovels, rakes, and picks, for example. The size, weight, and shape of these items may preclude them from fitting securely inside of the bin. As a result, the items may fall, cause the wheelbarrow to tip, damage nearby property, or injure people or livestock. 
       SUMMARY 
       [0003]    The following presents a simplified summary of the disclosure to provide a basic understanding to the reader. This summary is not an extensive overview of the disclosure, nor does it identify key or critical elements of the claimed subject matter, or define its scope. Its sole purpose is to present some concepts disclosed in a simplified form as a precursor to the more detailed description that is later presented. 
         [0004]    The instant application discloses, among other things, a Wheelbarrow Attachment. In one embodiment, a Wheelbarrow Attachment may comprise a rack which may attach to the side of a wheelbarrow bin. Wheelbarrow Attachment may include a plurality of holders designed to secure various items, for example, gardening tools. In this embodiment, the holders may be arranged so as to allow elongated handles of tools such as shovels, rakes, and picks, for instance, to rest horizontally along the side of the bin. Wheelbarrow Attachment may also include a handle which a user may pull upward to disconnect the rack from the wheelbarrow bin and to carry the items away. 
         [0005]    In another embodiment, the Wheelbarrow Attachment may include holders comprised of hooks, belts, buckles, hook and loop fasteners such as Velcro, adhesives, magnets, or any other holding means. 
         [0006]    A person skilled in the art will understand that a Wheelbarrow Attachment may be made into various shapes, sizes, and colors. It may also be made of various materials, such as wood, plastic, rubber, metal, or carbon fiber, for example. 
         [0007]    Many of the attendant features may be more readily appreciated as they become better understood by reference to the following detailed description considered in connection with the attached drawings.

Holders  130  may also comprise any other means of securing objects, including but not limited to any type or combination of clips, spring-loaded clips, hook and loop fasteners such as Velcro, adhesives, magnets, S-hooks, snap hooks, bolt plates, anchor plates, j-hooks, flat hooks, ratchet fasteners, over-center fasteners, slide buckles, snap buckles, and containers, for example. Holders  130  may adjust position by sliding in Track  150 , and may be held in place by friction, a tightening fastener, or other means. 
         [0015]    Wheelbarrow Attachment  100  may also include one or a plurality of Cross Bar  140  in order to support or distribute the weight of items placed on the rack. 
         [0016]      FIG. 2  is a front view of a Wheelbarrow Attachment  100  connected to the outer side of wheelbarrow bin, according to one embodiment. In this example, Wheelbarrow Attachment  100  may be secured to the outer side of Wheelbarrow Bin  210 . Wheelbarrow Attachment  100  may also attach to any other part of a wheelbarrow, including the outer side of the back of Wheelbarrow Bin  210 , or the outer side of the front of Wheelbarrow Bin  210 , for example. 
         [0017]      FIG. 3  is a front perspective view of a Wheelbarrow 
         [0018]    Attachment according to another embodiment. In this example, Wheelbarrow Attachment  300  may comprise a rack with an Attachment Means  310  that comprises a clip. It may also include a Handle  320  at the top portion of the rack, which a user may pull upward to remove Wheelbarrow Attachment  300  from Wheelbarrow Bin  210 , and a Cross Bar  340  to support and distribute weight on the rack. In this embodiment, Holders  330  may be made of adjustable straps which may be made in any colors, shapes, sizes, and textures, and of any material such as nylon, polypropylene, polyester, webbing, mesh, cotton, spandex, rubber, silicone, plastic, rope, or cable, for example. Holders  330  may also be comprised of any other holding means including, but not limited to clips, spring-loaded clips, hook and loop fasteners such as Velcro, adhesives, magnets, S-hooks, snap hooks, bolt plates, anchor plates, j-hooks, flat hooks, ratchet fasteners, over-center fasteners, slide buckles, snap buckles, and containers, for example.
