Shopping trolley

The invention relates to a shopping trolley, consisting of a chassis having wheels and a container, the chassis having a substantially vertically arranged, a frame part forming a handle and a support for the preferably adjoining the frame part with one longitudinal side having rectangular bottom of the container held on the frame part. These well-known shopping scooters are especially for to consider mail order as bulky goods. The wheels of these shopping scooters are therefore removed and, if necessary, removed for shipping also folded the support, so that the shopping scooter packed in a relatively small package can be. For the buyer, however, there arises the disadvantage / that he uses the shopping trolley before it is used as intended must first assemble. However, this brings difficulties especially for elderly people who use such shopping scooters use extensively.

The invention is based on the object of creating a shopping trolley of the type explained at the beginning, in which such disadvantages are avoided and the shopping trolley is designed to save space in the ready-to-use state. This goal is inventive

achieved in that the support for the preferably rectangular bottom of the container in its longitudinal extension of a length required for the operative position on a packaging cd. Like. Enabling length can be shortened. As a result, the ready-to-use chassis can be used in the container in a particularly simple manner, via which for the intended use of the shopping trolley only to remove the chassis from the container and the container to be attached to the main frame. Older people can also do this without further ado.

The invention can be implemented in various ways. It is possible to form the support for the preferably rectangular bottom of the container from two parts, which are in the operative position are arranged at a distance from one another. For packaging, the distance between the two parts of the support is reduced, i. E. the two parts moved against each other, so that the shopping trolley becomes much narrower and thus into the container

Be held in the recordings.

The two legs of the U-shaped bracket that straighten the roughly Forms frame part, are elastically deformable for pushing together the two parts forming the support. This lets the U-shaped bracket easily pushes the two parts of the support together. By sliding on a ring cd, the like. On the U-shaped bracket, the two parts of the support can be held in their pushed together position.

The approximately upright frame part formed by a U-shaped bracket can be shortened to a packing or the like. It is thereby achieved in a simple manner that the Frame part housed in the locked position in the container can be. The shortening can be done by folding or moving a part of the Äahmenteiles.

Advantageously, each leg of the U-shaped bracket forming the upright frame part can be designed in two parts be, the two parts of each leg are telescopically slidable into one another and the two legs of the U-shaped Stirrups are further apart at their lower ends than at their upper ends, according to the collapsibility of the support End up. It is thereby achieved in a simple manner that by inserting the upper V-shaped handle part, not only the
