Specifically, the cross-section of the handle 2 is U-shaped. Further, a limiting plate 22 and a snap-fit ​​plate 23 are provided in the receiving groove 21. The limiting plate 22 is provided with a limiting groove 221 with its opening facing downward. The limiting groove 221 matches the tension rib 31, and the limiting groove 221 is positioned on the limiting plate 22 closer to the front side of the handle 2. Specifically, the rear side of the handle 2 refers to the part of the handle 2 inside the basket 1, and the front side of the handle 2 refers to... The handle 2 is located outside the basket 1. The upper part of the handle 2 refers to the part of the handle 2 above the tension rib 31. One end of the buckle plate 23 is connected to the handle 2, and the other end of the buckle plate 23 extends downward and forms a bent portion 231, which bends towards the front of the handle 2. The limiting groove 221 cooperates with the bent portion 231 to limit the first horizontal rib segment 311. Furthermore, the limiting groove 221 cooperates with the bent portion 231 to install the handle 2 onto the frame 3. Specifically, the tension rib 31 is located within the limiting groove 221, enabling... To prevent the handle 2 from wobbling back and forth, the folded edge rib 32 cooperates with the bent portion 231 to prevent the handle 2 from wobbling left and right. The tension rib 31 is limited by the buckle plate 23 and is located between the limiting groove 221 and the bent portion 231 to prevent the handle 2 from wobbling up and down. More importantly, if the bent portion 231 is too close to the upper side of the handle 2, the elastic deformation capacity of the buckle plate 23 will be poor. When the tension rib 31 is engaged or disengaged from the handle 2, the connecting end of the buckle plate 23 and the stress point of elastic deformation are prone to breakage. Therefore, it can be seen that the buckle plate 23 has elasticity. Regarding the requirement for deformation capacity, it is preferable that, in this embodiment, the structure of the limiting groove 221 and the snap-on plate 23 matches the structure of the tension rib 31 mentioned above. Specifically, the bent part 231 has a certain distance from the upper side of the handle 2, and the limiting groove 221 also has a certain distance from the upper side of the handle 2. The limiting plate 22 and the snap-on plate 23 cooperate to make the first horizontal rib segment 311 located in the limiting groove 221 and limited by the snap-on plate 23. The advantage of this solution is that the connecting end of the snap-on plate 23 and the stress position of elastic deformation are not prone to breakage.
