Abstract

A cart including: a basket, being supported by a basket support, the basket including side walls, for carrying contents; legs for sufficiently supporting the basket support, and extending therefrom, and being vertically rotatable in relation thereto; at least one locking element, for locking the legs to the basket support, for normally disallowing rotating the legs in relation to the basket support, for normally maintaining the cart unfolded; and a mechanism, for canceling the locking, thereby the vertical rotation of the legs in relation to the basket support, is applicable upon the canceling of the locking, thereby the cart allows a single-step collapsing thereof.

Claims

1. A cart comprising:

a basket, being supported by a basket support, said basket comprising side walls, for carrying contents;

legs for sufficiently supporting said basket support, and extending therefrom, and being vertically rotatable in relation thereto;

at least one locking element, for locking said legs to said basket support, for normally disallowing rotating said legs in relation to said basket support, for normally maintaining said cart unfolded; and

a mechanism, for canceling said locking,

wherein said legs extend from a front of said cart, wherein a carrying handle of said cart is disposed at a rear thereof.

thereby the vertical rotation of said legs in relation to said basket support, is applicable upon said canceling of said locking,

thereby said cart allows a single-step collapsing thereof.

2. A cart according to claim 1, wherein said mechanism for canceling said locking, is operable upon pressing horizontally on at least one of said legs,

thereby the vertical rotation of said legs in relation to said basket support, is applicable upon pressing at least one of said legs on an external wall of a vehicle,

thereby said single-step collapsing of said cart is operable upon entrance into the vehicle.

3. A cart according to claim 2, wherein said mechanism, for canceling said locking, upon pressing horizontally on at least one of said legs, comprises:

a button disposed on said at least one of said legs; and

a locking element, for moving thereof by said button.

4. A cart according to claim 1, being designed for entering a member selected from a group consisting of:

a side opening of the vehicle, a rear opening of the vehicle.

5. A cart according to claim 1, wherein said legs are extendable, for allowing inserting said cart either through a side opening of the vehicle or through a rear opening of the vehicle.

6. A cart according to claim 1, further comprising:

wheels disposed at a bottom of said basket support of said cart, for rolling said cart thereon at a folded state.

7. A cart according to claim 1, further comprising:

a height compensating accessory, for placing thereof on a bottom surface of a rear compartment of the vehicle, for placing said cart on said height compensating accessory.

8. A cart according to claim 1, wherein said basket is horizontally rotatable in relation to said basket support,

thereby allowing horizontal rotation of said basket for entering at least a corner thereof into the vehicle prior to the collapsing of said cart.

9. A cart according to claim 1, wherein said basket is removable from said basket support.
