Description

  The present invention relates to a basket. More specifically, for example, the present invention relates to a structure of a basket that can be used in an underfloor storage for storing food and the like and can be stacked when not used.

In recent years, underfloor storage has become widespread in order to effectively use the underfloor of the kitchen and increase the storage space, and various techniques have been proposed for the structure of this underfloor storage. In addition, in the underfloor storage, in order to prevent the user-friendly upper space from becoming a dead space, a step is provided opposite to the upper part of the inner plate of the storage, and overhangs are provided at both ends of the bottom of the receiving basket. A technique is also known in which food is laid horizontally on the steps and stored in a receiving basket.

  However, the above-mentioned receiving basket provided with a protruding portion at the bottom is difficult to stack in the manufacturing process, transportation process, etc. or when a plurality of receiving baskets are used in the home due to the protruding portion being in the way. There is a problem that a large space is required for storage. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to solve the above-described problems and provide a lightweight and easy-to-use basket that can be easily stacked.

  In order to solve the above problems, the present invention takes the following technical means. That is, according to the present invention, a rectangular upper frame, a bottom made of a rectangle having longer and shorter sides than the upper frame, and a connecting member that connects the upper frame and the bottom. And having a substantially U-shaped projecting portion in plan view extending from both side edges of the long side of the bottom body, the short side of the top body and the short side of the bottom body A stackable receiving basket is provided, wherein the connecting member to be connected is removed.

  It is preferable that the long side of the upper frame is longer than the sum of the long side of the bottom body and the length of the overhanging portion extending on both sides of the bottom body.

  The long side of the upper frame is preferably shorter than the sum of the long side of the bottom body and the length of the overhanging portion extending on both sides of the bottom body.

  Preferably, the bottom body is formed by processing a wire rod into a lattice shape, and the connecting member that connects the lattice bottom body and the upper frame is preferably formed by processing the wire rod into a lattice shape. Moreover, it is preferable that the said wire rod resin-coats a steel wire.

  The invention according to claim 1 is as described above, and in particular, since the connecting member that connects the short side of the upper frame and the short side of the bottom is removed to form the opening, the opening is formed. It is possible to easily stack by inserting an overhanging portion extending on one side of the long side of the bottom of the receiving cage in the upper part and then storing the overhanging portion extending on the opposite side. .

  Since the long side of the upper frame is longer than the sum of the long side of the bottom body and the length of the overhanging portion extending on both sides of the bottom body, the upper basket is stacked as it is. It can be stacked more easily by placing it on the basket.

  Even when the long side of the upper frame is shorter than the total length of the long side of the bottom body and the length of the overhanging portion extending on both sides of the bottom body, the upper stacker is received in the opening. It is possible to stack more easily by inserting an overhanging portion extending on one side of the long side of the bottom of the cage and then storing the overhanging portion extending on the opposite side. Further, when the overhanging portion is horizontally mounted on the underfloor storage, the overhanging portion is large, so that the horizontal operation becomes easy.

  The bottom body is formed by processing a wire rod into a lattice shape, and the connecting member that connects the lattice bottom body and the upper frame is also formed by processing the wire rod into a lattice shape. Only the wire which comprises a body overlaps, and it can be set as the structure which is lightweight and is not bulky. Moreover, since the said wire rod resin-coats a steel wire, it gives a clean feeling and is excellent in design, for example by resin-coating white.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a basket A according to the present invention formed by processing a white wire obtained by coating steel wire with polyethylene into a lattice shape. 2 and 3 are a front view and a side view of the receiving basket A shown in FIG. In FIG. 1, a receiving basket A includes a rectangular upper frame body 2, a bottom body 1, and a connecting member 3 that connects the upper frame body 2 and the bottom body 1. Overhanging portions 41 and 42 having an approximately U-shape are extended. As can be clearly understood from FIGS. 1 and 2, the bottom body 1 is a rectangle having a long side and a short side smaller than the long side and the short side of the upper frame body 2, respectively. The connecting member 3 that connects 1 and 1 also has a lattice shape.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the length c of the long side of the upper frame 2 is the length of the overhangs a and the bottom of the overhang portions 41 and 42 extending from the edge of the bottom body 1. It is longer than the total length b + 2a with the length b of the long side of the body 1. As is clear from FIG. 3, since the connecting member 3 that connects the short side of the upper frame 2 and the short side of the bottom body 1 is removed, an opening 5 is formed on the side surface. Although not shown in the drawings, as another embodiment, the overhang lengths a of the overhang portions 41 and 42 extending from the edge of the bottom body 1 with respect to the length c of the long side of the upper frame body 2 are as follows. Even if the total length b + 2a of the long side of the bottom body 1 and the length b of the long side of the bottom body 1 is lengthened, a projecting portion that extends to one side of the long side of the bottom body of the receiving basket is stacked in the opening. It is possible to stack more easily by interpolating and then storing the overhanging portion extending on the opposite side.

  FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram showing an operation of stacking the receiving basket B on the receiving basket A configured as described above. As can be clearly seen from FIG. 4, since c> b + 2a, and the short side of the upper frame 2 is longer than the short side of the bottom body 1, simply placing the receiving basket B on the receiving basket A, Can be easily stacked. As described above, even when a plurality of receiving cages are stacked, the wires constituting the lattice-like bottom body 1 overlap each other at a constant interval (this constant interval is determined by the diameter of the wire and the inclination angle of the connecting member 3). Therefore, it is not bulky and can be easily stacked. FIG. 5 is a partial side view showing a state in which the overhanging portions 41 and 42 are horizontally mounted on the steps 61 and 62 provided on the side plates of the underfloor storage 6 installed on the floor F with the receiving cage A configured as described above. It is sectional drawing. As can be seen from FIG. 5, by placing the basket A horizontally, the upper space of the underfloor storage 6 where the hand can be easily reached can be used effectively and conveniently.

It is a perspective view which shows the receiving basket concerning this invention. It is a front view which shows the receiving basket shown in FIG. It is a side view which shows the receiving basket shown in FIG. It is explanatory drawing which shows the state which accumulates a receiving basket. It is a fragmentary sectional view which shows the example which applied the receiving basket concerning this invention to underfloor storage.
