Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] This invention is a foldable carrier that collects sheets, blanket covers, and sometimes garbage when transporting clothes at large clothing wholesalers and dry cleaners, or when cleaning hospitals and hotels. Regarding.

Conventionally, this type of carrier car is called a dust car, and it is the same type as the one used for transporting garbage when cleaning returning trains at the platform of the last station. When used, the number of dust cars used is small, so it is sufficient to place them in a corner of the platform without having to think about the storage space. However, in the case of carrier cars used in hospitals, hotels, etc., many of them are used separately from items for clothing such as sheets and blanket covers, and items for garbage collection. Currently, they are used in corners of buildings and under stairs, but it is essential that they do not get in the way within the limited space of a building. Furthermore, in large clothing wholesalers, each customer uses one carrier car at a time to select their shopping items, so there is a large number of carrier cars in use, making it difficult to find a place to store them. For this reason, foldable carrier cars have been developed in recent years, but since the X-shaped main material is simply rotatable and foldable, the folded carrier cars cannot stand on their own because of the bags and casters that get in the way, and they often lean against the wall. It is stored in hanging condition. For this reason, in places where a large number of devices are used, even though they are foldable, they cannot be kept tidy and tidy, and as mentioned above, it is difficult to store them.

The present invention provides a carrier car that is foldable and has a structure that can stand on its own, making it easy to keep things organized and convenient to store even when there are a large number of them.

The carrier car of the present invention will be explained with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 is a side view of the carrier car of the present invention in a used state, and Figure 2 is a side view of the carrier car in a folded state. 3 and 4 are configuration diagrams of only the frame without the bag body, with FIG. 3 showing a front view and FIG. 4 showing a perspective view.

In the figure, reference numerals 1 and 1' are metal pipes that are formed into a U-shape when viewed from the front, and the handle portions 2 and 2' are formed by bending the top side of the U-shape outward.
Further, the lower ends of the main members 1, 1' are also bent outward like the handle part, and casters 3, 3' are attached to the tips thereof, and the lower end of one of the main members 1, 1' is bent outward as shown in FIG. Bend it into a spread-leg shape as shown in . The main members 1 and 1' are assembled in an X-shape at the center of the sides of the main members, and the intersections are rotatably fixed with screws 4. Therefore, when the legs of the main members 1, 1' combined in an X shape are opened, the handle portions 2, 2' extend outward almost horizontally, as shown in FIG. 1 or 2. Further, the casters 3, 3' are vertically grounded on the floor surface G. When the legs are closed, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the caster 3' of the open leg part A crosses one caster 3 inward and is assembled.
As shown in FIG. 2, the casters 3, 3' form a V-shape and are in contact with the floor G, forming a stable self-supporting state.
A horizontal bar 6 is provided at the same position below the handle portions 2, 2' of the main materials 1, 1', and a storage bag 5 is attached to this horizontal bar 6.
to be suspended. The bag body 5 is mainly made of canvas cloth, but may also be made of a synthetic resin sheet, and has a rectangular cubic shape as a whole.
In addition, horizontal bars 9,
10, and a bottom plate 7 is rotatably attached to this horizontal bar 9, and this bottom plate forms a hook-shaped bent part 8 on the side opposite to the free attached part, and the main members 1 and 1' have an open leg shape ( In the case of Figure 1)
In this case, the hook-shaped bent portion 8 is engaged with the other horizontal bar 10 to form the bottom plate 7 to receive the bag body 5. case), when the bottom plate 7 and the horizontal bar 10 are disengaged, the horizontal bar 10 pushes up the bottom plate 7 and closes, so the bottom plate 7 moves in the direction of the arrow to hold down the bag 5 and when stored. In the case, the bag body 5 is the bottom plate 7
The carrier car is crushed into a small size and becomes freestanding, making storage convenient.

Since the carrier car of the present invention has the above-described configuration, when the main members 1 and 1' are opened, the bag body 5 opens and the bottom plate 7 is opened at the same time.
The hook-shaped portion 8 engages with one horizontal bar 10 to form a stable bottom plate to support the bag body 5, and the main members 1, 1'
When storing the bag with its legs closed, the bottom plate and the horizontal bar 10 are disengaged, and at the same time the horizontal bar 10 pushes up the bottom plate in the direction of the arrow as the legs of the main material are closed, so the bottom plate acts to hold down the bag body. In addition, by intersecting the casters 3 and 3' in a V-shape and touching the floor, the closed carrier car can stand on its own as shown in Figure 2, and it is not as original as the conventional It is more convenient to store than storing it upright or standing it up, and you can use this carrier at hospitals or hotels.
It also has extremely practical effects when used in large stores.
