Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a wire type basket used for a luggage basket for scooters and the like, which carries a plurality of stacked baskets at the time of shipping.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art One conventional example of such a basket is shown in FIG.
Shown in This basket is composed of a plurality of wires that are assembled in a state that the whole is in the shape of a box and the top is open.

The wire comprises a vertical rod 1 extending vertically and horizontally at the bottom, and a ring which crosses the vertical rod and winds the side surface of the basket in a closed loop shape. The ring is composed of a top ring 2 forming the peripheral edge of the opening and a plurality of lower rings located below the top ring 2.

In the case of this example, the lower ring comprises a second ring 3 and a third ring 4 provided further below the second ring 3. Each of the rings 2, 3 and 4 is wound around the outer side of the vertical rod 1 and is welded to the vertical rod 1 and its intersection.

[0005]

By the way, when a large number of baskets as described above are conveyed, the bottom of one basket A may be put inside from the opening of another basket B and stacked.

Then, the second ring 3 and the third ring 4 come into contact with the inside of the vertical rods 1 of the other basket B indicated by imaginary lines in the figure and stop downward movement. However, if a large number of them overlap, they will bite into the inside and below of the lower basket B by their own weight, so it is necessary to prevent damage to the coating 6 at the contact portions of both rods, and the other basket B
It was necessary to provide a styrofoam block 5 or the like at the bottom of the to prevent biting.

Therefore, there is a demand for a structure which can eliminate the need for such styrofoam blocks 5 and prevent damage to the coating 6 during stacking.

[0008]

In order to solve the above problems, a basket according to the present invention is a substantially box-shaped wire type basket having an open upper portion, and a plurality of vertical rods extending in the vertical direction, and A ring provided in a closed loop shape intersecting with the vertical rod, wherein the ring includes a top ring edging around the opening and one or more lower rings located below the top ring. The top ring is arranged inside the vertical rod, and at least one of the lower rings is arranged outside the vertical rod so as to overlap the top ring in a plan view.

Further, at this time, the corner portion of the top ring can be made larger than the corner portion of the lower ring which overlaps in a plan view.

[0010]

When the baskets are stacked, the rings of the upper basket come into contact with the rings of the lower basket or the end faces of the vertical rods, and the upper basket is positioned so as not to bite further. For this reason, the damage of the coating at the contact portion between the ring and the vertical rod is reduced, and the member for preventing the bite can be eliminated.

At this time, at least one lower ring of the lower rings of the upper basket is provided on the outer side of the vertical rod and is arranged so as to overlap with the top ring in a plan view. Since the top ring in the opening of the basket overlaps, a larger number can be stacked at the same stacking height.

Further, when the baskets are stacked, the contact between the lower ring of the upper basket and the top ring of the lower basket is line contact, so that the possibility of coating damage is further reduced. Moreover, if there is a lower ring that does not overlap with the top ring, this can be made non-contact.

Furthermore, when the lower ring of the upper basket and the top ring of the lower basket overlap, if the corner portion of the top ring is made larger than the corner portion of the lower ring that overlaps with this, the manufacturing tolerances of both rings are increased. Even if it is large, the lower ring of the upper basket and the top ring of the lower basket overlap with each other without much deviation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment configured as a basket for a scooter will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a main part in a state where two baskets are stacked.
Is an overall front view of the basket according to the present embodiment, FIG. 3 is a view showing one corner of the basket plan view, and FIG. 4 is a front view of a right half side in a state where two baskets are stacked.

In these drawings, the basket is a wire type in which a plurality of rods are combined to form a substantially box-like shape having an open upper portion, and the wire intersects with the vertical rods 10 extending in the vertical direction on their side surfaces. And a plurality of rings that are wound around the basket in a closed loop shape and welded at intersections with the vertical rods 10. The rings are composed of a top ring 20, a second ring 30, and a third ring 40 from above. .

The vertical rod 10 is formed by using a wire that is slightly thinner than a ring, and is bent in a taper shape such that the center portion is a bottom portion 50 (see FIG. 3) and both sides are upwardly opened outward. It constitutes the side and bottom walls of the basket.

The top ring 20 is the upper end 11 of the vertical rod 10.
Is welded to the inside of the basket to form the inside of the basket opening. Second ring 30 is top ring 20
Is arranged in parallel through the outside of the vertical rod 10 below
As is apparent from FIGS. 1 and 3, the top ring 2 is seen in a plan view.
It almost overlaps with zero.

That is, assuming that the wire diameter of the top ring 20 and the second ring 30 is D and the wire diameter of the vertical rod 10 is d, the vertical rod is about D + d at the position of the second ring 30 which is separated from the top ring 20 by h. If 10 is inward, the top ring 20 and the second ring 30 will overlap in a plan view.

In this case, the position of the second ring 30 is higher than that of the second ring 3, that is, the top ring 20 and the second ring 3.
If the interval of 0 is made smaller than h, the second ring 30 may overlap the top ring 20 and the end face 11 of the vertical rod 10 or only the end face 11 of the vertical rod 10.

Moreover, since the second ring 30 of the upper basket A overlaps with the top ring 20 of the lower basket B, the height of the upper basket A protruding upward from the lower basket B is the second ring with the top ring 20. Only the distance h between the rings 30 makes it possible to stack more baskets at the same stacking height.

As is apparent from FIG. 3, the corner portion 21 of the top ring 20 is formed to be larger than the corner portion 31 of the second ring 30. The second ring 30 and the third ring 40 form a lower ring.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, when stacking a plurality of baskets during transportation, the bottom portion 50 of the upper basket A is used.
Into the opening of the lower basket B and stack.

At this time, the second ring 30 of the upper basket A overlaps with the top ring 20 of the lower basket B, so that the second ring 30 and the top ring 20.
Serves as a stopper, and the upper basket A can be positioned so as not to bite into the lower basket B more than necessary, and the conventional block for preventing bite can be eliminated.

The top ring 20 and the second ring 30 are in line contact with each other, and the upper basket A
The third ring 40 also has a clearance S (FIG. 1) with respect to the vertical rod 10 of the lower basket B corresponding to the inner side of the top ring 20 and is not in contact with the vertical rod 10. The damage of 60 can be prevented as much as possible.

In addition, the corner portion 21 is replaced by the corner portion 3
Since the radius is larger than 1, even if there is a manufacturing tolerance of the top ring 20 and the second ring 30, the second ring 30 of the upper basket A and the top ring 20 of the lower basket B are brought into contact with each other without being significantly displaced. be able to.

The invention of the present application is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but can be variously modified. For example, the stopper ring can be either the third ring 40 of the upper basket A and the top ring 20 or the second ring 30 of the lower basket B.

At this time, when the third ring 40 of the upper basket A overlaps with the second ring 30 of the lower basket B, the second ring 30 of each of the upper basket A and the lower basket B is attached to the vertical rod 10. Install it inside. The number of lower rings can be any number of 1 or 2 or more.
