Definitions

  • the present invention relates a basket and more particularly, to a collapsible basket.
  • collapsible storage containers and baskets are created. These collapsible storage containers and baskets commonly have a fabric container or basket body, a plurality of horizontal top rods and horizontal bottom rods respectively horizontally fastened to the top and bottom sides of the vertical peripheral panels of the fabric container or basket body, and a plurality of vertical rods respectively vertically fastened to the junction between each two vertical peripheral panels of the fabric container or basket body. Further, each vertical peripheral panel of the fabric container or basket body has crossed folding lines. If the storage container or basket is not in use, the user can twist the horizontal top rods relative to the horizontal bottom rods to collapse the storage container or basket.
  • the conventional collapsible storage containers and baskets are functional, however they have a complicated structure, resulting in a high manufacturing cost. Further, for easy carrying by hand, these storage containers and baskets must be mounted with additional carrying handles.
  • the present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is the main object of the present invention to provide a collapsible basket, which has a simple structure and is easily collapsible. It is another object of the present invention to provide a collapsible basket, which has the support frames thereof usable as carrying handles.
  • the collapsible basket comprises a collapsible fabric basket body, a hard bottom board attached to the top surface of the bottom panel of the basket body, and two support open frames formed of a respective metal wire rod and respectively hinged to the top side of the basket body at two opposite sides.
  • the support open frames can be turned inwards and closely attachable to two opposite vertical peripheral panels of the basket body to support the basket body in shape. Alternatively, the support open frames can be turned outwards to the outside of the basket body for use as carrying handles.
  • a collapsible basket in accordance with the present invention is shown comprised of a basket body 1, a bottom board 3, and two support frames 2 provided inside the basket body 1 and respectively hinged to two opposite vertical peripheral panels of the basket body 1.
  • the basket body 1 is made out of a soft fabric material in a circular, oval, rectangular, or any of a variety of shapes.
  • the basket body 1 is a substantially rectangular container having a rectangular horizontal bottom panel and four linked vertical peripheral panels respectively connected to the four sides of the rectangular horizontal bottom panel and defining a top open side.
  • a rigid top rim 13 is provided at the top side of each of the vertical peripheral panels around the top open side of the basket body 1 (see also FIG. 7A), and a bottom hem 12 is formed on the bottom side of the vertical peripheral panels around the four sides of the rectangular horizontal bottom panel of the basket body 1.
  • the bottom hem 12 is made.
  • a rigid bottom rim can be provided at the bottom side of each of the vertical peripheral panels of the basket body 1.
  • the aforesaid rigid top rim 13 is made of a metal wire rod, i.e., the metal wire rod is bent into shape and affixed to the four vertical peripheral panels of the basket body 1 around the top open side of the basket body 1.
  • the support frames 2 are rectangular open frames respectively formed of a metal wire rod. According to this embodiment, the support frames 2 are rectangular open frames, having a length not less than the depth of the basket body 1.
  • the support frames 2 each have one short side respectively hinged to the top side of one of two opposite vertical peripheral panels of the basket body 1.
  • the support frames 2 may be hinged to the basket body 1 in either of the following two ways. In the first way as shown in FIG. 7A, a wrapping material 11 is wrapped about the top rim 13 and one short side of the associating support frame 2 and then stitched to the associating vertical peripheral panel of the basket body 1. In the second way as shown in FIG. 7B, a barrel 13 is used to hold the top rim 13 and one short side of the associating support frame 2 on the inside, and then a wrapping material 11 is wrapped about the barrel 13 and then stitched to the associating vertical peripheral panel of the basket body.
  • the bottom board 3 is a hard board that can be directly embedded in the bottom panel of the basket body 1.
  • the bottom panel of the basket body is made having two layers respectively covered on the top and bottom sides of the bottom board 3.
  • the bottom board 3 can be directly put inside the basket body 1 and supported on the top side of the bottom panel of the basket body 1.
  • the bottom board 3 has two side notches 31 at two opposite sides. The width of the side notches 31 is approximately equal to the width of the support frames 2 so that the other short side of each of the support frames 2 can be respectively positioned in the side notches 31 of the bottom board 3.
  • the support frames 2 When in use, the support frames 2 can be turned inwards to the inside of the basket body 1 and closely attached to the associating vertical peripheral panels of the basket body 1 and engaged into the side notches 31 of the bottom board 3, as shown in FIG. 2. Alternatively, the support frames 2 can be turned outwards to the outside of the basket body 1 and closely attached to the associating vertical peripheral panels of the basket body 1, as shown in FIG. 5. Further, the support frames 2 can turned to the outside of the basket body 1 for use as carrying handles, as shown in FIG. 3. When not in use, the two support frames 2 are turned outwards from the associating vertical peripheral panels of the basket body 1, and then the basket body 1 is collapsed, as shown in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 8 shows an alternate form of the collapsible basket according to the present invention.
  • the basket body 1 is a flat rectangular container made out of a soft fabric material and provided with a cover, and the two support frames 2 are respectively hinged to the vertical front and back panels of the basket body 1.
