Patent ID: 10457309

Abstract:
A carrier for transporting a grill and cooler over difficult terrain includes a chassis that includes a first frame and a floor. The first frame has a front end that includes a front axle to which a front wheel may be coupled with and rotatable about, and a rear end that includes a rear axle to which a rear wheel may be coupled with and rotatable about. The floor is coupled with the first frame, and together, the first frame and the floor define a receptacle disposed between the front and rear wheel and that is configured to hold a cooler. The carrier also includes a second frame coupled with the chassis and operable to hold a grill. The second frame is positionable relative to the first frame to: 1) a first position where the grill is operable to cook food when the second frame holds the grill, and 2) a second position where the grill is stored for transportation when the second frame holds the grill. Because the receptacle is disposed between front and rear wheels, which may be sized to provide easy rolling over difficult terrain, such as loose sand of a beach, or an uneven path in the woods or desert, the carrier can easily and stably transport a cooler full of ice, food and drinks. And because the second frame of the carrier is positionable relative to the first frame of the carrier's chassis, the grill may be easily positioned adjacent the cooler while transporting the grill and cooler over difficult terrain, and repositioned above the cooler while it cooks food.
