Foldable basket

Abstract

A foldable basket includes a bottom board, two sideboards, a front board and a rear board. The bottom board has pivotal members in two opposite sides, a front low wall and a rear low wall. The front and the rear low wall respectively have plural slots and fitting grooves. Two sideboards are respectively connected pivotally with two sides of the bottom base with pivotal members and projections at two sides respectively. The front board and the rear board are connected pivotally to the bottom board with fitting rods fitting with fitting grooves of the bottom board. The two sideboards are foldably connected with the front and the rear board. So the basket is easily unfolded for use or folded for storing by folding or unfolding the two sideboards, the front and the rear board on or from the bottom board.

1 . A foldable basket comprising: 
 a bottom board provided with plural pivotal members at two opposite side edges respectively, a front low wall on a front edge and a rear low wall on a rear edge, said rear low wall being higher than said front low wall, each said pivotal member provided with a pivot hole, said front low wall provided with plural slots spaced apart and plural fitting grooves spaced apart in an inside edge, said rear low wall provided also with plural slots spaced apart and plural fitting grooves spaced apart in an inside edge;    two sideboards respectively connected pivotally with two opposite sides of said bottom board and provided with plural pivotal members spaced apart in the bottom and plural projections spaced apart on two opposite side edges respectively, each said pivotal members provided with a pivot hole facing exactly with said pivot holes of said pivotal members of said bottom board for a pivotal bar to insert therein;    a front board connected pivotally with said front low wall of said bottom board and provided with plural fittings rods spaced apart at the bottom for fitting with said fitting grooves of said bottom base and plural curved rails extending properly upward out of the bottom edge for fitting with said slots of said front low wall of said bottom base;    a rear board connected pivotally with said rear low wall of said bottom base and provided with plural fitting rods spaced apart in the bottom for fitting with said fitting grooves of said bottom base and plural curved rails extending properly upward out of the bottom edge for inserting with said slots of said rear low wall of said bottom base; and    said basket used to contain articles in a hollow space and to be folded up by folding orderly said side boards, said front board and said rear board down on said bottom board to reduce its bulk when not used, saving a storing space.    
   
   
       2 . A foldable basket as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein two ends of said front low wall and said rear low wall are respectively provided with a bar hole.  
   
   
       3 . A foldable basket as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said pivotal members of said sideboards are fitted correspondingly in apertures between every two of said pivotal members of said bottom board, and said sideboards are provided with a holding hole respectively.  
   
   
       4 . A foldable basket as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said two outermost fitting rods positioned at two ends of said front board are provided with a bar hole respectively for a pivot bolt to insert therein and connect pivotally said front board with said bottom base, and said front board is provided with a holding hole.  
   
   
       5 . A foldable basket as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said fitting rods positioned at two ends of said rear board are provided with a bar hole respectively for a pivotal bar to insert therein and connect said rear board pivotally with said bottom base, and said rear board is provided with a holding hole.
