Hanging Basket

Abstract

A hanging basket has a basket, multiple suspension lines and multiple basket connectors. The basket has a sidewall, an edge, a connecting ring formed around the edge and multiple mounting holes formed around and through the sidewall of the basket. The basket connectors are connected respectively to the suspension lines. Each basket connector has a lip hook and a post, The lip hook and post are formed opposite to each other. The lip hooks of the basket connectors and the connecting ring of the basket selectively hook to each other. The posts of the basket connectors are selectively mounted respectively in the mounting holes. The basket will not detach from the suspension assembly even though the hanging basket hangs in high places and sways or bumps other hanging baskets or objects.

1 . A hanging basket comprising
 a basket having
 a bottom; 
 a sidewall being formed around and protruding up from the bottom of the basket and having
 an edge; 
 an outer surface; and 
 multiple mounting holes being formed through and around the sidewall near the edge; and 
 
 a connecting ring being formed on and protruding out from the edge of the sidewall and having
 an outer edge; and 
 a lip being formed around and protruding down from the outer edge of the connecting ring and having an outer surface; and 
 
   a suspension assembly having
 multiple suspension lines, each suspension line having
 an upper end; and 
 a lower end; and 
 
 multiple basket connectors being resilient and U-shaped, being connected respectively to the lower ends of the suspension lines and being connected to the connecting ring and respectively to the mounting holes, and each basket connector having
 a cross member being connected to the lower end of a corresponding one of the suspension lines and having two ends; 
 two walls being formed respectively on and protruding down from the ends of the cross member, and each wall having
 a distal edge; and 
 an inner surface; 
 
 a lip hook being formed on the distal edge of one wall of the basket connector and bending parallel to the inner surface of the wall and hooking on the connecting ring of the basket; and 
 a post being formed on and protruding transversely from the inner surface of the wall of the basket connector opposite to the lip hook, being mounted selectively through a corresponding one of the mounting holes of the sidewall of the basket and abutting the lip hook. 
 
   
   
   
       2 . The hanging basket as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein
 the connecting ring of the basket further has multiple indentations being formed in the outer surface of the lip and corresponding respectively to the mounting holes of the sidewall; and   the lip hook of basket connector being mounted selectively in a corresponding one of the indentations of the connecting ring.   
   
   
       3 . The hanging basket as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein
 the suspension assembly further has a mounting connector; and   the upper ends of the suspension lines of the suspension assembly are connected to the mounting connector.   
   
   
       4 . The hanging basket as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein
 the suspension assembly further has a mounting connector; and   the upper ends of the suspension lines of the suspension assembly are connected to the mounting connector.
