It is pivotally provided on the other side surface, and at least the one handle is preferably provided in the recess.

  According to the present invention, since the interior of the car body is partitioned by the partition wall, the accommodation space is subdivided and becomes a shape that can be easily accommodated, so that the product can be efficiently accommodated in the shopping basket.

  In addition, since a sharp corner is formed in the central storage space, vertically long products such as bottles can be securely held in an upright position, so that broken items such as bottles are overturned in a shopping basket. Without any risk of damaging the cracks.

  Furthermore, by forming a central storage space in the central portion of the car body and storing, for example, relatively heavy items in the central storage space, the items can be stored in a balanced manner in the shopping basket. Can be done comfortably.

  Furthermore, since both ends of one handle are pivoted on one side and both ends of the other handle are pivoted on the other side, the user can take a natural posture without twisting his arm. By holding the handle, the recess can be aligned with the body part. Therefore, the fatigue of the user due to the operation of possessing the shopping basket can be reduced, and the user can comfortably shop.

  Furthermore, since at least one of the grips is provided in the recess, the distance between the grips is shortened, so that gripping operation becomes easy and the burden on the user can be reduced. Can be obtained.

  Hereinafter, a shopping basket according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Here, FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a shopping basket according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a plan view of the shopping basket.

  The shopping basket 11 according to the present embodiment includes a car body 14 composed of a bottom surface 12 and a peripheral wall portion 13 erected on the outer edge of the bottom surface 12, and two handles 15, 15 pivoted on the car body 14. In order to facilitate gripping of the grips 15 and 15 ', it is preferable to make the cross-sectional shape of the grips 15 and 15' circular.

  The car body 14 has a horizontally long shape with an open top surface and rounded corners. The opening surface is wider than the bottom surface 12 and the peripheral wall portion 13 is inclined outward. A concave portion 17 is curved inward at the center of one side surface 16 in the longitudinal direction of the peripheral wall portion 13, and the concave portion 17 forms a smooth curved surface like a part of the side surface of the cylinder. And the recessed part 17 and its vicinity part are formed from the non-porous member like a board | plate material, A site | part of a user's body, such as a waist and a leg, can be naturally slid with respect to the recessed part 17, and can be adjusted now. Yes. On the other hand, the portion other than the concave portion 17 and the vicinity thereof and the bottom surface 12 of the peripheral wall portion 13 have a mesh shape with a large number of holes 18.

  Two partition walls 20 are provided between one side surface 16 of the car body 14 and a side surface 19 facing the one side surface 16 so as to be parallel to each other. Is freely detachable with respect to the guide groove portions 32 and 33 formed in the vertical direction on one side surface 16 and the inner surface of the side surface 19 facing the one side surface 16. A central housing space 21 is formed in the central portion of the car body 14 by the side walls 16 and 19 facing each other and the partition walls 20. The central housing space 21 includes a recess 17 and the partition wall 20. The corners 24 and 25 are formed at acute angles.

  As described above, because the interior of the car body 14 is partitioned by the partition wall 20, the storage spaces 22 and 23 having a regular rectangular parallelepiped shape are formed on both sides of the central storage space 21. Goods can be efficiently stored in the shopping basket 11. In addition, in the central storage space 21, since the sharp corners 24 and 25 are formed, a vertically long product such as a bottle can be securely held in an upright position. Without falling down in the basket 11, it can be held with good stability, and there is no possibility of breaking broken objects. Furthermore, by forming the central storage space 21 in the central portion of the car body 14, the goods can be stored in a balanced manner in the shopping basket, and shopping can be performed comfortably. Furthermore, since the peripheral wall portion 13 of the car body 14 is inclined outwardly upward and the partition wall 20 is detachable, the shopping basket 11 can be stacked many times. The shopping basket 11 can be efficiently stored.

  One of the handles 15 and 15 'has both ends 26 and 27 pivoted at the upper end of the concave portion 17 on one side surface 16, and the other handle 15' has both ends 28 and 29. Is the upper end portion of the other side surface 19 and is pivoted at a position corresponding to the pivot portions of the both ends 26 and 27 of the one handle 15, and each handle 15 and 15 ′ is a short of the car body 14. It is provided so as to be rotatable along the hand direction. Further, the upper end portion of the concave portion 17 on one side surface 16 on which the grips 15 and 15 ′ are pivoted and the upper end portion of the other side surface 19 are recessed downward, respectively, and when the shopping basket 11 is stacked, the handle 15 , 15 ′ does not interfere with the car body 14.

  Thus, both ends 26 and 27 of one handle 15 are pivoted on one side face 16 and both ends 28 and 29 of the other handle 15 ′ are pivoted on the other side face 19. A person can align the concave portion 17 with the body part by grasping the handle in a natural posture without twisting the arm. Therefore, the fatigue feeling of the user due to the operation of holding the shopping basket 11 can be reduced, and the user can comfortably shop. In addition, since the grips 15 and 15 ′ are provided in the concave portion 17, the distance between the grips 15 and 15 ′ can be shortened, and the gripping operation of the grips 15 and 15 ′ can be easily performed. Can be reduced.

  In the above embodiment, the concave portion 17 is formed only on one side surface 16, but the concave portion 17 may be formed also on the opposite side surface 19 as shown in FIG. In this case, since the corners 24, 25, 30, and 31 having acute angles are formed at the four corners in the central housing space 21, it is possible to hold a vertically long product such as a bottle in an upright posture more reliably. Further, since the distance between the grips 15 and 15 'is further shortened, the gripping operation of the grips 15 and 15' can be performed more easily, and the burden on the user can be further reduced.

  Further, the shape of the car body 14 is not limited to the above-described shape, and various changes are possible. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the planar shape may be formed in a bowl shape. Furthermore, the partition wall 20 may be curved according to this planar shape.
