20130305536 | Wire Basket Attachment Spade and Spring Wire Trap - A length of a substantially linear wire is attached to a substantially linear portion of a wire basket rim wire at two spaced-apart locations. The spaced-apart connections allow the two wires to deflect or act as springs when a notched basket-to-frame attachment clip is driven into a hole or loop formed by a detent in one of the wires. A wire basket having the linear spring wire attached to a rim wire can be permanently attached to a frame portion without tools or welding. | 11-21-2013 |
20130256999 | Basket-to-Frame Locking Clip - A shopping cart basket is attached to a frame having wheels using front and rear clips for attaching rim wires of a basket to a basket support member. The clips enable the basket to be assembled to the frame without requiring tools. A front clip is comprised of an upright body that is attached to the basket frame. A sloping surface on the clip urges a rigid wire of a basket sideways as the wire is moved downward. The rigid basket wire is captured into a rim wire receiving notch formed into the body. A rear clip receives two, joined-together wires when the two wires are oriented along their major dimension to fit into a slot that leads into a central figure-eight shaped lock. | 10-03-2013 |
20130255036 | Rear Basket-to-Frame Locking Clip - A shopping cart basket is attached to the rear portion of a basket frame using a clip that is configured to removably affix to the frame, a pair of joined-together rim wires that are attached to the basket. The joined-together wires are oriented to slide into the clip and downwardly through a slot into a substantially circular opening. Once in the opening, the wires are rotated. The width of the slot is selected such that rotated wires are too wide to pass back through the slot. The clip enables the basket to be assembled to the frame without requiring tools or welding. | 10-03-2013 |
