Description

[0001] The invention relates to a basket having a carrying container and at least one carrying handle.

[0002] Baskets of the type mentioned above are available in a variety of materials, such as plastic, wire, wickerwork, or with aluminum frames covered in fabric. Such baskets are often used as shopping baskets or for other purposes.

[0003] DE 10 2009 040 875 A1 discloses a folding bag comprising an upper, rigid support frame, a base portion, and a foldable, particularly flexible, wall material connected to the upper support frame and surrounding a receiving volume. The wall material cooperates with a support device acting between the support frame and base portion to maintain an unfolded, open state. The support device can be pivoted toward the support frame to fold the folding bag and toward the base portion to stabilize the open state.

[0004] DE 203 01 158 U1 discloses a box-shaped carrying bag with a body, on the upper edge of which are mounted receptacles for a separate carrying device. The carrying device is designed as a closed frame with a foldable handle. The receptacles are designed as Velcro fasteners.

[0005] It is the object of the present invention to provide a basket which can be used flexibly and which enables separate transport of objects, in particular under different transport conditions.

[0006] The object is achieved by a basket which is characterized by a separating element which can be or is fastened within the carrying container in such a way that two separate compartments are formed within the carrying container.

[0007] The basket according to the invention has the particular advantage that two separate compartments (in particular horizontally adjacent) can be easily formed within the basket by means of the separating element, wherein one of the compartments can be designed, in particular, as a closed cooling compartment or a heating compartment with thermal insulation. The basket according to the invention makes it possible to transport different or different types of objects spatially separated from one another, in particular under very different conditions, simultaneously in the same basket.For example, in a compartment designed as a refrigerated compartment, cold objects, in particular cold food and / or cold drinks, can be transported without the risk of these objects heating up quickly; while at the same time, in the other compartment, other objects can be transported, such as food and / or drinks that are not to be refrigerated and / or that cannot tolerate cold.

[0008] The thermally insulated compartment can be used either as a cooling compartment or as a warming compartment. A warming compartment is a good option, for example, if you need to keep food warm during transport.

[0009] The basket may advantageously have an opening which is oriented upwards when the carrying container is held freely suspended from the at least one carrying handle.

[0010] In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the basket is designed to be foldable and / or collapsible. This can be achieved in various ways. For example, the basket's carrying container can have a flexible cover that can be opened up in a use position and folded and / or collapsed in a storage position, which is described in detail below.

[0011] In general, the carrying container can have a cover enclosing the interior of the carrying container. This cover can advantageously be designed to be flexible, as already mentioned, which can be used, for example, for foldability. Furthermore, a flexible cover allows the basket to be designed to be particularly lightweight.

[0012] In a particular embodiment, the carrying container has a supporting structure. The at least one carrying handle can be hingedly attached to the supporting structure. In particular, it can advantageously be provided that the supporting structure supports the flexible cover and / or holds it in an extended position.

[0013] The supporting structure can advantageously comprise a frame. In particular, it can advantageously be provided that the frame surrounds the opening of the carrying container.

[0014] In a particularly advantageous embodiment, a particularly flexible cover surrounding the interior of the carrying container is attached to the frame, for example, by means of several loops. This design is particularly robust yet allows for easy folding.

[0015] The at least one carrying handle can advantageously be connected to the frame in a hinged manner. Such a hinged connection is particularly robust because the shell is not directly stressed by the hinged connection. A hinged connection allows the carrying handle to be folded away when not needed, for example, when loading or unloading the basket.

[0016] The frame can, for example, be formed from a profile material, in particular from an aluminum profile. The frame can advantageously be substantially rectangular. In particular, the frame can be substantially rectangular with rounded corners. It has been shown that this is particularly advantageous if the frame surrounds the opening of the carrying container, because a substantially rectangular opening allows for particularly easy loading and removal of a wide variety of objects. However, other frame shapes are not fundamentally excluded. For example, the frame can also be ring-shaped or oval.

[0017] In a particularly advantageous design, the support structure can be moved either into a use position or into a storage position. Preferably, the basket has a smaller volume in the storage position than in the use position, allowing it to be stowed away in a space-saving manner when not needed.

[0018] In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the support structure has at least one foldable clamping bracket. In particular, the support structure can have exactly two foldable clamping brackets, which can, for example, be hingedly attached to opposite ends of the frame. To achieve the storage position, the clamping bracket(s) are folded in, while the clamping bracket(s) are unfolded to achieve the use position of the basket. In particular, it can advantageously be provided that a flexible cover of the carrying container is automatically opened when the clamping bracket(s) are unfolded. Advantageously, at least one locking device can be provided that fixes the clamping bracket in the folded and / or unfolded position, or that fixes the clamping brackets in the folded and / or unfolded position.

[0019] As already mentioned, it can advantageously be provided that the at least one clamping bracket stretches the flexible cover in the use position and is arranged in the storage position such that the flexible cover is relaxed and / or can be folded together.

[0020] In general, it's particularly advantageous if at least one of the folding clamps is connected to the frame via a hinge. This design is particularly robust and yet can be easily converted into a space-saving storage position.

[0021] The flexible cover can advantageously be formed at least partially from a textile material and / or a film and / or a tarpaulin and / or a membrane.

[0022] In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the carrying handle is designed as a U-shaped bracket. A particularly robust design is one in which each end of the carrying handle is hinged to the supporting structure, in particular hinged to the frame of the supporting structure. Such a design allows the carrying handle to be moved into either a retracted or extended position. Advantageously, the carrying handle can be arranged parallel to the frame of the supporting structure in the retracted position. In contrast, the carrying handle can be arranged perpendicular to the frame of the supporting structure in the extended position.

[0023] As already mentioned, at least one of the compartments can advantageously be designed as a cooling compartment with thermal insulation. There are no fundamental restrictions regarding the type of thermal insulation. For example, the thermal insulation can comprise a metal foil. Such a design advantageously reduces the penetration of thermal radiation into the cooling compartment. Alternatively or additionally, the thermal insulation can, for example, comprise an insulating insert, in particular padding (for example, padding between two flexible flat materials, such as textiles, foils, or membranes). These designs are also particularly advantageous because this type of thermal insulation enables a flexible design of the casing and / or the separating element.

[0024] In a special design, where the ratio between material consumption and storage volume for the items to be transported is particularly good, the cooling interior of the cooling compartment is partially enclosed by a section of the carrying container's shell and partially by the separating element. In particular, it can advantageously be provided that the separating element comprises part of the thermal insulation of the cooling compartment, while the carrying container comprises another part of the thermal insulation of the cooling compartment.

[0025] In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the divider is attached or can be attached to the inside of the base of the basket. Preferably, one edge of the divider is hinged to the base of the basket in such a way that the divider, or at least a plate-like divider part of the divider, can be optionally raised or placed against the floor. In the raised state, the basket does not have two separate compartments. In this position, the user can use the basket, for example, to transport particularly large objects. When the divider is raised, the basket has two separate compartments with the advantages described above.

[0026] For example, the divider can be attached or attachable to the bottom of the basket, either longitudinally or transversely. With this design, the two compartments are the same size. However, it is also possible for the divider to be attached or attachable off-center to the bottom of the basket if different-sized compartments are desired.

[0027] The attachment of the separating element to the floor can be realized, for example, by the separating element being manufactured in one piece with the floor or by the separating element being sewn to the floor or by the separating element being fastened or attachable to the floor by means of a (preferably tool-free) detachable connection, for example by means of a Velcro connection.

[0028] Preferably, the type of attachment of the separating element is designed such that the separating element can be removed again without causing damage. For example, the attachment can be designed as a hook-and-loop fastener. For example, a hook-and-loop fastener can be attached to the bottom of the cover, which interacts with a loop-and-loop fastener of the separating element when the separating element is attached to the bottom of the basket on the inside. Conversely, it is of course also possible for a loop-and-loop fastener to be attached to the bottom of the cover, which interacts with a loop-and-loop fastener of the separating element when the separating element is attached to the bottom of the basket on the inside.

[0029] Alternatively, it is also possible, for example, for the attachment of the separating element to the bottom of the basket to be designed as a snap-in connection or to have cords for tying the separating element.

[0030] As already mentioned, it is particularly advantageous if the dividing element or at least one plate-like dividing element part of the dividing element is or can be articulated to the base of the basket, because such a design makes it possible to align the dividing element depending on the type of use desired for the basket. In particular, in a design in which the dividing element has two articulated, plate-like dividing element parts, it is possible to position the dividing element part articulated directly to the base vertically, so that it is preferably oriented at an angle in the range of 70 degrees to 110 degrees, in particular perpendicular, to the base. In this position, the dividing element part articulated directly to the base forms a dividing wall between the two compartments of the basket.In this design, the additional plate-like divider element can be aligned parallel to the floor, functioning as a compartment lid (particularly one that can be opened and closed) for one of the compartments. If no division into two compartments is required (for example, to transport large items), the additional divider element can be placed parallel to the divider element that is directly hinged to the floor. The two adjacent divider elements can then be pressed against the floor thanks to the hinged attachment, so that the entire undivided interior of the basket is then available to the user (apart from the small volume occupied by the folded divider element when placed against the floor).

[0031] In a particularly stable design, the separating element is attached or can be attached to at least one side wall, in particular to two opposing side walls, of the carrying container. In particular, it can advantageously be provided that the separating element is attached or can be attached in a non-destructive manner to at least one side wall, in particular to two opposing side walls, of the carrying container. For example, the attachment can be implemented using a hook-and-loop connection.

[0032] For example, it can advantageously be provided that a side wall hook-and-loop fastener is attached to a side wall of the cover, which cooperates with a side wall loop fastener of the separating element when the separating element is attached to the side wall of the basket, or that a side wall hook-and-loop fastener is attached to a side wall of the cover, which cooperates with a side wall hook-and-loop fastener of the separating element when the separating element is attached to the side wall of the basket. In particular, several such hook-and-loop connections can be provided, by means of which the separating element is or can be attached laterally.

[0033] As already mentioned, it can advantageously be provided that the dividing element is or can be attached to the inside of the wall of the basket by means of a (preferably tool-free) detachable connection, for example by means of a Velcro connection. Such a design advantageously makes it particularly easy to detach the dividing element from the inside of the wall at its vertical edges and then fold it down if no division into two compartments is desired. If, however, a division of the basket into two compartments is desired, the dividing element can, for example, be positioned such that it forms a right angle to the base of the basket, wherein in this position it can be easily attached to the inside of the wall of the basket in the area of ​​its vertical edges by means of the detachable connection.

[0034] As already mentioned, the separating element can advantageously comprise two articulated separating element parts. The separating element parts can advantageously be designed to be flexible, in particular as elastically bendable plates. The separating element can in particular essentially comprise two (preferably flexible) plates that are articulated to one another and are designed to be thermally insulating. Each plate can have a covering, for example, made of a textile material on one side and a covering made of a heat-protection film on the other side.

[0035] As already mentioned, the separating element parts can advantageously be designed to be heat-insulating in order to be able to function advantageously as part of a cooling compartment or heating compartment.

[0036] In a special design, the divider elements are connected to one another by means of a hinge, particularly a film hinge. This allows the divider to be folded together when not needed. Furthermore, one of the divider elements can function, for example, as a partition between the compartments, while the other divider element functions as a hinged compartment lid for one of the compartments.

[0037] In an advantageous embodiment, at least one support is arranged on the inside of the shell, on which the compartment lid rests when closed. The support can be formed, for example, as an injection-molded plastic part. The support can be screwed to the frame from the inside.

[0038] The support can advantageously have an additional function. In particular, the support can be designed and arranged in such a way that it also functions as a bearing block to which the foldable clamping bracket is hinged.

[0039] The compartment lid can be designed to simply rest on the support. In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the compartment lid can be closed, for example, with a zipper, which is particularly advantageous for good cold and heat insulation.

[0040] At least one of the compartments, in particular the cooling compartment, can advantageously have a receptacle for a cooling pack. The receptacle is preferably designed as a pocket or a retaining net into which a cooling pack can be inserted, in particular inserted with a tight fit. The cooling pack can, for example, be a plastic container containing a liquid that undergoes a phase change upon cooling.

[0041] The basket can advantageously have an active, particularly electrical, cooling element. An active (electrical) cooling element can be present, which can be connected via a cable, for example, to a cigarette lighter or to an electrical energy storage device (e.g., a power bank). The active cooling element can, for example, include a Peltier element and / or a refrigeration unit, particularly a compression refrigeration unit or an absorption refrigeration unit.

[0042] Alternatively, a heating element can be used instead of a cooling element, for example when the aim is to keep food warm.

[0043] In particular, the basket can have an energy storage device for operating an electric cooling element. In particular, the basket can have a receptacle for an electrical energy storage device, in particular for a power bank, for example on the outside of the cover.

[0044] Alternatively or additionally, the basket may have receptacles on the outside and / or on the inside, in particular in the form of pockets or nets, in particular for utensils such as wallets, keys, etc.

[0045] In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the basket has a lid for closing the opening and / or for covering the two compartments. The lid can advantageously be designed to be flexible. For example, the lid can be formed at least partially from a textile material and / or a film and / or a tarpaulin and / or a membrane. A zipper can be provided to enable the lid to be closed reliably. The lid can be designed such that it covers both compartments when closed. If the cooling compartment has an additional compartment lid (for example as part of the dividing element described above), particularly advantageous thermal insulation is achieved because the cooling compartment is then separated from the environment at the top by two lids lying one above the other.

[0046] At least one further dividing element may be provided to form a further compartment within the carrying container (in addition to the first and second compartments or within one of the two compartments). The further dividing element can be designed and / or attached in the same or similar manner as the dividing element described above. In this way, it is possible, for example, to form at least one further compartment within one of the two compartments, in which a bottle can be placed upright in such a way that it does not fall over. The further compartment can also be designed as a cooling compartment.

[0047] The subject matter of the invention is illustrated schematically and by way of example in the drawing and is described below with reference to the figures, wherein identical or similarly acting elements are generally provided with the same reference numerals even in different embodiments. In the drawings: Fig. 1 a side view of a first embodiment of a basket according to the invention with the carrying handle unfolded, Fig. 2 a side view of the first embodiment of the basket according to the invention with folded carrying handle, Fig. 3 a schematic sectional view of the first embodiment of a basket according to the invention with the cooling compartment closed, Fig. 4 a schematic sectional view of the first embodiment of a basket according to the invention with the compartment lid folded inwards to one side of the partition wall, Fig. 5 is a schematic sectional view of the first embodiment of a basket according to the invention with the compartment lid folded inwards to the other side of the partition wall, Fig. 6 a schematic sectional view of the first embodiment of a basket according to the invention with the separating element folded away to the right, Fig. 7 a schematic sectional view of the first embodiment of a basket according to the invention with the separating element folded away to the left, Fig. 8 is a schematic sectional view of the first embodiment of a basket according to the invention with the separating element removed, Fig. 9 a schematic sectional view of the first embodiment of a basket according to the invention in the folded state, Fig. 10 is a schematic sectional view of a second embodiment of a basket according to the invention, and Fig. 11 a schematic external view of a third embodiment of a basket according to the invention.

[0048] Fig. Figure 1 shows a side view of a first embodiment of a basket according to the invention. The basket has a carrying container 1 and a carrying handle 2. The carrying handle 2 is folded out. Fig. 2 shows a side view of the embodiment with the carrying handle 2 folded in.

[0049] The carrying container has a supporting structure that supports a flexible cover 3. The flexible cover 3 can advantageously be formed at least partially from a textile material and / or a film and / or a tarpaulin and / or a membrane. The cover 3 surrounding the interior of the carrying container 1 is attached to a frame 5 by means of several loops 4 sewn onto the cover 3.

[0050] The frame 5 surrounds an opening 7 of the carrying container 1, which is closed by a lid 6. The opening 7 is oriented upwards when the carrying container 1 is held freely suspended from the carrying handle 2. The lid 6 is preferably made of a textile material and / or a film and / or a tarpaulin and / or a membrane. The lid 6 is connected to the cover 3 by a zipper 8 running along its peripheral edge.

[0051] The carrying handle 2 is pivotally connected to the frame 5. The carrying handle is designed as a U-shaped bracket, with each end of the carrying handle 2 pivotally attached to the frame 5 of the supporting structure.

[0052] Fig. Figure 3 shows a schematic sectional view of the first embodiment of a basket according to the invention. This figure shows that the basket has a separating element 28, which is secured within the carrying container 1 in such a way that two separate compartments, namely a first compartment 9 and a second compartment 10, are formed within the carrying container 1. The lid 6 is designed and arranged such that, when closed, it covers both compartments 9, 10 at the top.

[0053] The first compartment 9 is provided with thermal insulation 11 (schematically shown in dashed lines) and can be used as a cooling compartment (or heating compartment). There are no fundamental restrictions regarding the design of the thermal insulation 11. For example, the thermal insulation 11 can comprise a metal foil. Such a design advantageously reduces the penetration of thermal radiation into the cooling compartment. Alternatively or additionally, the thermal insulation 11 can comprise, for example, an insulating layer and / or an insert, in particular padding (for example, padding between two flexible flat materials, such as textiles, foils, or membranes).

[0054] The separating element 28 has two separating element parts 13, 14 that are connected in an articulated manner by means of a hinge joint 12. The separating element parts 13, 14 can advantageously be designed to be flexible, in particular as elastically bendable plates.

[0055] A first dividing element part 13 of the two dividing element parts 13, 14 is hingedly attached to the inside of the base 15 of the basket. For example, a Velcro base fastener 18 can be attached to the base 15 of the cover 3. This Velcro base fastener cooperates with a loop-type base fastener 19, which is hingedly arranged on the edge of the first dividing element part 13, when the dividing element 28 is attached to the inside of the basket, to the base 15 of the basket. When arranged perpendicular to the base 15, the first dividing element part 13, which is hingedly attached directly to the base, forms a dividing wall between the two compartments 9, 10 of the basket. The first dividing element part 13 of the two dividing element parts 13, 14 is also non-destructively and detachably attached to the two opposite side walls of the carrying container.For example, it can advantageously be provided that a side wall hook and loop tape 20 is fastened to each of the two side walls of the cover 3, which cooperates with a side wall loop tape 21 which is fastened to the side edge of the first separating element part 13.

[0056] The second dividing element part 14 of the two dividing element parts 13, 14 functions as a foldable and collapsible compartment lid for the first compartment 9. On the inside of the shell 3, several supports 16 are arranged. These supports are attached to the frame 5 and on which the second dividing element part 14, which functions as a compartment lid, rests when closed. The supports 16 also have another function. The supports 16 are designed and arranged in such a way that they also function as bearing blocks, to which foldable clamping brackets 17 are articulated.

[0057] To achieve a storage position, the clamping brackets 17 are folded in, which in Fig. 9. The clamping brackets 17 are folded out to bring about the use position of the basket, which is particularly useful in the Fig. 1 to 8. The supports 16, which function as bearing blocks for the clamping brackets 17, preferably each have a locking device that fixes the respective clamping bracket 17 in the folded-in position or in the unfolded position in order to prevent unintentional folding or unfolding.

[0058] The second separating element part 14 of the two separating element parts 13, 14 can be folded down (due to its flexibility and with a correspondingly large force applied by the user past the support 16) in such a way that it lies parallel to the left or right of the first separating element part 13, which in the Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 is shown.

[0059] If no division into two compartments 9, 10 is required (for example, to transport large objects), the second dividing element part 14 can be placed parallel to the first dividing element part 13 which is directly attached to the floor in an articulated manner, and then the two directly adjacent dividing element parts 13, 14 can be placed optionally to the right or left of the floor 15 due to the articulated attachment, which is Fig. 6 and Fig. 7, so that the user then has access to the entire undivided interior of the basket (apart from the small volume taken up by the folded divider element placed against the floor). Alternatively, the divider element 28 can also be removed completely, which is shown in Fig. 8 is shown. The Fig. 8 also shows the basket with the lid 6 removed.

[0060] Fig. Figure 10 shows a schematic sectional view of a second embodiment of a basket according to the invention. In this basket, a pocket 22 is arranged in the first compartment 9, into which a cooling pack 23 is inserted. The pocket 22 is preferably made of a flexible material. For example, the pocket 22 can be made of a heat-permeable textile material that is attached, in particular sewn, to the cover 3.

[0061] Fig. Figure 11 shows a schematic external view of a third embodiment of a basket according to the invention. In this embodiment, a pocket 22 is arranged in the cooling compartment, into which an active cooling element 27 is inserted. The pocket 22 is preferably made of a flexible material. For example, the pocket 22 can be made of a heat-permeable textile material that is attached, in particular sewn, to the cover 3.

[0062] The active cooling element 27 is powered by electrical energy. For this purpose, the active cooling element 27 is connected by a two-wire electrical cable 26 to an electrical energy storage device 24, which is arranged in a further pocket 25 located on the outside of the casing 3. The two-wire electrical cable 26 runs through a passage opening (not shown in detail) in the cover 6.
