Abstract
This invention relates to a collapsible laundry basket, more particularly, a silicone (or other like substances) sided laundry basket, which can be collapsed and stored flat, in turn requiring minimal space and achieving greater functionality.
Description
COLLAPSIBLE LAUNDRY BASKET
(PANIER A LINGE EFFONDRABLE) SPECIFICATION:
The collapsible laundry basket can be collapsed and subsequently stored in a manner requiring minimal space.
While traditional laundry baskets are useful, they have a tendency to be cumbersome and sometimes nearly impossible to store. Although their plastic composition makes them lightweight and resistant to humidity, the advent of a collapsible substance would be a definite advantage over their counterparts, which have a tendency to be entirely moulded of plastic. What differentiates this product from other collapsible laundry baskets is the combined use of the traditional plastic laundry basket with the use of silicone (or other like substances). In addition to its simple design, and contrary to Prior Art as seen below, the absence of a cloth / net / material like substance as the collapsible substance is beneficial in terms of health (humidity, cleanliness, ergonomic advantages), practicality (less cumbersome to carry and easy to store), functionality (easily collapsable), as well as durability. In addition, the nature of silicone (or other like substances) maintains the laundry basket in the expanded position, until such a time as it is manually collapsed. Such practicality eliminates the necessity for moving parts in order to attain greater functionality. Although for very different uses, similar collapsible products composed of substances likened to those detailed in this application have been designed, manufactured and sold, what appears to be, successfully.
The collapsible laundry basket comprises a frame and base, both made of a resilient material, typically plastic but not limited to, as well as collapsible sides composed of silicone (or other like substances). Ideally, the frame contains three handles, as well as one side which is kidney shaped. (This enables the subject to carry the basket with both hands, or comfortably on the hip with the use of one hand. Note that the design of the frame does not impede in the collapsible laundry basket's original functionality and is to be considered a suggested asset to the overall design.) The sides of the collapsible laundry basket are comprised of collapsible silicone (or other like substances), as well as a base composed of resilient material. The frame and base look indivisible from the collapsible sides. See FIGURE 1 for representative drawing.
Not only will the collapsible laundry basket share all of the benefits of traditional plastic laundry baskets, but through its simple design and virtually effortless transformation, it can be stored flat, in turn significantly reducing necessary storage space.
