Nokkakärry

Nokkakärry, also known as a hand truck or dolly, is a common piece of material handling equipment. It is a wheeled cart, typically with two large wheels and a small lip or platform at the bottom for securing goods. The user tips the cart back on its wheels to load an item and then wheels it to its destination. Nokkakärryt are designed to move heavy or bulky items with less physical strain.

The basic design of a nokkakärry consists of a frame, two wheels, and a handle. The frame is usually made of metal, such as steel or aluminum, for durability. The wheels are often pneumatic or solid rubber, providing shock absorption and maneuverability. Handles can vary in design, from simple straight bars to more ergonomic shapes. Some nokkakärryt also feature a fold-down platform or a telescoping frame to accommodate different sizes of cargo.

Nokkakärryt are widely used in various settings, including warehouses, retail stores, moving companies, and even households. They are essential for tasks such as transporting boxes, appliances, furniture, and other heavy items. Their simplicity, affordability, and effectiveness make them a staple in logistics and everyday life for efficient and safer movement of goods. Different types of nokkakärryt exist for specialized purposes, such as stair-climbing models or those with adjustable frames.
