Problems solved by technology

In the case of shopping carts or shipping containers made of plastic, the conditions for cleaning can be even more difficult as there are crevices at the intersections between the individual plastic rods where contamination tends to accumulate
The fact that the rods of plastic shopping carts are stronger than metal rods lead to the presence of long cracks
These long crevices at the intersections between the rods in turn require specialized cleaning which further increases the effort required when cleaning plastic shopping carts or shipping containers

Embodiment Construction

[0021] [0021] In both cases of shopping carts 1 and 2, their surfaces are designed to be hydrophobic or superhydrophobic and / or ion-releasing.

[0022] [0022] The hydrophobic or superhydrophobic and / or ion-releasing properties of the surface can be achieved in the case of steel shopping carts by coating with a suitable material.

[0023] [0023] This coating may be applied to the shopping cart during the main production process or at a later time, such as during an overhaul.

[0024] [0024] Preferably only the basket 3 consisting of a plurality of metal rods 4 is equipped with a hydrophobic or superhydrophobic and / or ion-releasing surface. Other parts of the shopping cart that will not come into contact with food remain without specially treated surfaces.

[0025] [0025] In the case of the plastic shopping cart 2, the hydrophobic or superhydrophobic and / or ion-releasing surface has been manufactured by suitable manufacturing methods.

[0026] [0026] In the case of conventiona...

Abstract

By using a combined hydrophobic or superhydrophobic and / or ion-releasing surface, a shopping cart or transport container is obtained that has the additional feature of not providing any environment that permits the survival of pathogens.

Description

technical field [0001] [0001] In broad terms, the present invention relates to a shopping cart or shipping container. Background technique [0002] [0002] Most shopping carts or shipping containers in use today have surfaces made of galvanized, chromed, or painted metal. The so-called basket refers to the area where the items to be transported, such as purchased goods, are placed, which is formed by an interwoven structure of circular metal strips or rods. There are also a small number of plastic shopping carts. In order to achieve sufficient stability for the baskets, such baskets consist of plastic rods which are stronger than said metal rods. [0003] [0003] Shopping carts or shipping containers are often soiled from use and require cleaning at intervals. [0004] [0004] Due to food hygiene regulations, shopping carts or transport containers transporting food must be cleaned only with water without added solvents. In order to increase the cleaning action of the water,...
