[0022] As shown in FIG. 1, an embodiment of a container with a detachable handle. In this embodiment, the container is a basket body 100. The structure of the container with a detachable handle mainly includes a basket body 100 and a handle assembly 110. The handle assembly 110 includes a grip 111 and a connecting mechanism 120. The basket body 100 is made of a flexible textile material, such as non-woven fabric, PE woven fabric, polyester mesh fabric, TPU composite material, etc. The basket body 100 can be converted between an unfolded state and a folded state. When in use, after the basket body 100 is unfolded, it forms a storage cavity with an opening 101 at the top. When not in use, the basket body 100 can be folded and stored, which can effectively save storage space, especially adapted for users with limited living space. As shown in FIG. 2, the basket body 100 is generally in an inverted trapezoid shape when viewed from the front view. The size of the top of the basket body 100 is larger than that of the bottom of the basket body 100. This shape makes it easier for users to put clothes into the storage cavity of the basket body 100. Of course, other shapes such as cylinders, cuboids, and irregular profiles can also be used according to different usage scenarios.

[0023] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in this embodiment, there are two grips 111. Each grip 111 is detachably connected to the side wall of the basket body 100 through a connecting mechanism 120. The grip 111 is semicircular in shape when viewed from the front view (see FIG. 2). Of course, other shapes such as circular and rectangular can also be used. The grip 111 includes an integrally formed grip part 112. The grip part 112 is arranged between the two ends of the grip 111. The grip part 112 is designed with ergonomics, enabling the user to grip more comfortably and stably to lift the laundry basket. In this embodiment, the grip 111 is made by the injection molding process to ensure that the grip 111 has good strength and toughness. In addition, the material of the grip 111 can also be metal or non-metal.

[0024] As shown in FIG. 1, each grip 111 includes a front side and a back side. The back side of the grip 111 faces the opening 101. The back side of each grip 111 is a plane. By fitting the back sides of the two grips 111 together, the two grips 111 are combined into one grip 111 (as shown in FIG. 8). Further (not shown), a magnetic connecting mechanism is arranged on the back side of the grip 111. One of the back sides of the grips 111 is provided with a magnet, and the back side of the other grip 111 is provided with a magnetic metal. In addition, both back sides of the two grips 111 can also be set as magnets. The user can combine the two grips 111 through the magnetic connecting mechanism, making the connection between the two grips 111 more stable, avoiding displacement or disengagement during the handling process, and improving the operation stability.

[0025] As shown in FIG. 7, in another embodiment, a plug assembly 1110 is arranged on the back side of the grip 111. The plug assembly 1110 includes a plug protrusion 1111 and a plug cavity 1112. The plug protrusion 1111 is arranged on the back side of one of the grips 111, and the plug cavity 1112 is arranged on the back side of the other grip 111. The two grips 111 are horizontally plugged through the plug protrusion 1111 and the plug cavity 1112, so that the two grips 111 are combined into one grip 111 (as shown in FIG. 8). By connecting the two grips 111 through the plug assembly 1110, the connection between the two grips 111 is made more stable.

[0026] As shown in FIGS. 3, 4, and 5, the connecting mechanism 120 includes a first connector and a second connector. In this embodiment, the first connector and the second connector are the snap component 130 and the fastener 140 respectively. The fastener 140 and the snap component 130 can be quickly installed and disassembled through snap connection. In this embodiment, there are four fasteners 140, which are arranged on the side wall of the basket body 100. The four fasteners 140 are symmetrically distributed in two pairs on the front and rear sides of the basket body 100 (as shown in FIG. 1). Each fastener 140 has a top, a middle, and a bottom. The fastener 140 includes a channel 141, which runs through the middle of the fastener 140. The top of the fastener 140 is provided with a snap groove 142. One side of the snap groove 142 facing the opening 101 is provided with a snap interface. The top of the snap groove 142 is provided with a locking hole 143, and the locking hole 143 is a through-hole.

[0027] Please continue to refer to FIGS. 3, 4, and 5. Each connecting mechanism 120 includes two snap components 130, which are arranged at both ends of the grip 111. The snap component 130 has a top and a bottom. The top of the snap component 130 is integrally formed with the grip 111 through the injection molding process. In other embodiments, the snap component 130 can also be connected to the grip 111 in other ways, such as snap connection, magnetic connection, bolt and stud connection, etc. A snap block 131 extends from the bottom of the snap component 130. The snap block 131 has a front side and a rear side, and the rear side is provided with an elastic locking protrusion 132. The locking protrusion 132 has an inclined guiding slope, which makes the locking protrusion 132 more likely to undergo elastic deformation, makes the snap action smoother, reduces the external force required for snap connection, and makes it easier for users to operate. In other embodiments (not shown), the locking holes 143 can be set as a pair of through-holes relatively distributed on the left and right sides of the snap groove 142. Correspondingly, a pair of locking protrusions 132 are arranged on the left and right sides of the snap block 131. The locking protrusions 132 on the snap block 131 cooperate with the locking holes 143 on the snap groove 142 to realize the detachable connection between the snap component 130 and the fastener 140, providing convenience for users to flexibly disassemble and install the grip 111 in different usage scenarios. In other embodiments (not shown), the snap interface of the snap groove 142 can also be arranged on the side wall of the snap groove 142. Correspondingly, the snap block 131 can also be arranged on the side wall of the snap component 130.

[0028] In other embodiments (not shown), in addition to the detachable connection method of the snap block 131 and the snap groove 142 described above, the first connector and the second connector can also be set as other detachable connection structures. For example, magnetic connection, clamp connection, buckle connection, etc. can be used; alternatively, the first connector and the second connector can be set as two hooks, and the two hooks are hooked to form a detachable connection.

[0029] In other embodiments (not shown), the two grips 111 can also be set in a circular shape, and a snap component 130 extends from the bottom of each grip 111. Correspondingly, only one fastener 140 that is snapped with the snap component 130 on each grip 111 is provided. Compared with the original structure with four fasteners 140, in this embodiment, the number of fasteners 140 is reduced to two corresponding to the number of handle assemblies 110, making the overall structure simpler and reducing the number of components. In the disassembly operation, the user does not need to operate multiple fasteners 140 in sequence. Only by dealing with the connection part between this one fastener 140 and the snap component 130 can the disassembly of the handle assembly 110 be quickly completed.

[0030] Please continue to refer to FIGS. 3, 4 and 5. In this embodiment, a flexible strap 150 is also provided between the snap component 130 and the fastener 140. The flexible strap 150 is a nylon woven strap, which has a first end and a second end. After the first end passes through the through channel 141 of the fastener 140, the strap parts on both sides of the through channel 141 are fixed on the side wall of the basket body 100 through the sewing process. At the same time, the fastener 140 is also fixed on the side wall of the basket body 100. The second end is fixedly connected to the snap component 130 through the connecting column 133 arranged inside the snap component 130. In addition, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 6, the flexible strap 150 has two forms: folded and unfolded. When the grip 111 is snapped onto the fastener 140 through the snap component 130, the flexible strap 150 is in the folded form; when the grip 111 is disassembled from the fastener 140, the flexible strap 150 is in the unfolded form, and the grip 111 can be lifted upwards to increase the height of the grip 111 relative to the basket body 100. When too many clothes are placed in the inner cavity of the laundry basket, resulting in an increase in the weight of the laundry basket, it will be very laborious to carry the basket by simply holding the handle, which is extremely inconvenient to use. At this time, the user can place the grip 111 on the shoulder and realize labor-saving handling through the shoulder load-bearing. In addition, in the unfolded form, the flexible strap 150 can also make the grip 111 hang down in the inner cavity of the basket body 100. When the basket body 100 is stored, it can be stored in the inner cavity of the basket body 100 together, improving the user's convenience.

[0031] In other embodiments (not shown), the flexible strap 150 further includes an adjustment buckle. The adjustment buckle is arranged between the first end and the second end of the flexible strap 150 and is used to adjust the length of the flexible strap 150 in the unfolded state, so that the flexible strap 150 can adjust its overall length according to different usage scenarios.

[0032] In actual use, the operation of installing the grip 111 is as follows: the snap blocks 131 on the snap components 130 on both sides of the grip 111 are aligned with the lateral openings of the snap grooves 142 of the fastener 140 and inserted into the snap grooves 142, and at this time, during the insertion process, the locking protrusions 132 are squeezed and elastically deformed; when the snap blocks 131 move to the positions of the locking holes 143 on the snap grooves 142, the locking protrusions 132 rebound and snap into the locking holes 143 to complete the locking, and at this time, the handle assembly 110 is installed on the fastener 140, the flexible strap 150 is in a folded state, and the laundry basket can be lifted and carried by the grip 111.

[0033] When it is necessary to disassemble the handle assembly 110, the locking protrusions 132 are pressed through the locking holes 143, and the locking protrusions 132 are deformed and unlocked from the locking holes 143; at this time, the grip 111 is grasped and pulled outwards to separate the snap blocks 131 from the snap grooves 142, and the handle assembly 110 is disassembled from the fastener 140. In actual use, when the laundry basket is overloaded with clothes and the weight increases, the grip 111 can be disassembled to make the flexible strap 150 in an unfolded state. The user can place the grip 111 on the shoulder and achieve labor-saving handling through shoulder load-bearing.

[0034] When it is necessary to store the laundry basket, after disassembling the grips 111 on the left and right sides, the flexible strap 150 is in an unfolded state; the handle assembly 110 is caused to hang down into the inner cavity of the basket body 100, and then the basket body 100 is folded and stored. This process is simple and fast. The overall volume of the folded basket body 100 is reduced, and it does not occupy too much storage space, which is convenient for users with limited living space.

[0035] The handle applied to the laundry basket provided by the present disclosure exhibits significant beneficial effects in multiple aspects. When the grip 111 is snap-fitted to the fastener 140 through the snap component 130, an ergonomic handle structure is formed, which facilitates manual carrying in the normal state. After disassembly, the flexible strap 150 unfolds and extends, allowing the handle assembly 110 to be raised to a height adapted for shoulder carrying, enabling labor-saving shoulder carrying in the heavy-load state. The two modes can be freely switched according to the load weight, which is convenient for users to carry the laundry basket. The basket body 100 is made of a flexible textile material, making it foldable. When not in use, it can greatly save storage space and effectively solve the problem of limited living space. At the same time, the handle assembly 110 can also be stored together when the basket body 100 is stored. The grips 111 of the two handle assemblies 110 can be combined into one handle assembly 110, which is convenient for users to grasp with one hand. It meets the usage needs of users in different scenarios and expands the application scope of the laundry basket.

[0036] In the description of the present disclosure, it should be appreciated that directional terms such as “front, rear, up, down, left, right”, “horizontal, vertical, perpendicular, horizontal” and “top, bottom” etc. indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present disclosure and simplifying the description. In the absence of a contrary explanation, these directional terms do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present disclosure; the directional terms “inside, outside” refer to the inside and outside relative to the contour of each component itself.

[0037] For the convenience of description, spatial relative terms such as “on . . . ”, “above . . . ”, “on the upper surface of . . . ”, “upper” etc. may be used here to describe the spatial positional relationship of a device or feature with other devices or features as shown in the drawings. It should be appreciated that spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation other than the orientation described in the drawings. For example, if the device in the drawing is inverted, the device described as “above other devices or structures” or “on other devices or structures” will subsequently be positioned as “below other devices or structures” or “under other devices or structures”. Thus, the exemplary term “above” can include both “above” and “below” orientations. The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used here should be interpreted accordingly.

[0038] In addition, it should be noted that the use of terms such as “first”, “second” etc. to define components is for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure and is not intended to limit the present disclosure. For those skilled in the art, the present disclosure can have various modifications and changes. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present disclosure should be included within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

The size of the top of the basket body 100 is larger than that of the bottom of the basket body 100. This shape makes it easier for users to put clothes into the storage cavity of the basket body 100. Of course, other shapes such as cylinders, cuboids, and irregular profiles can also be used according to different usage scenarios.

[0023] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in this embodiment, there are two grips 111. Each grip 111 is detachably connected to the side wall of the basket body 100 through a connecting mechanism 120. The grip 111 is semicircular in shape when viewed from the front view (see FIG. 2). Of course, other shapes such as circular and rectangular can also be used. The grip 111 includes an integrally formed grip part 112. The grip part 112 is arranged between the two ends of the grip 111. The grip part 112 is designed with ergonomics, enabling the user to grip more comfortably and stably to lift the laundry basket. In this embodiment, the grip 111 is made by the injection molding process to ensure that the grip 111 has good strength and toughness. In addition, the material of the grip 111 can also be metal or non-metal.

[0024] As shown in FIG. 1, each grip 111 includes a front side and a back side. The back side of the grip 111 faces the opening 101. The back side of each grip 111 is a plane. By fitting the back sides of the two grips 111 together, the two grips 111 are combined into one grip 111 (as shown in FIG. 8). Further (not shown), a magnetic connecting mechanism is arranged on the back side of the grip 111. One of the back sides of the grips 111 is provided with a magnet, and the back side of the other grip 111 is provided with a magnetic metal. In addition, both back sides of the two grips 111 can also be set as magnets. The user can combine the two grips 111 through the magnetic connecting mechanism, making the connection between the two grips 111 more stable, avoiding displacement or disengagement during the handling process, and improving the operation stability.

[0025] As shown in FIG. 7, in another embodiment, a plug assembly 1110 is arranged on the back side of the grip 111. The plug assembly 1110 includes a plug protrusion 1111 and a plug cavity 1112. The plug protrusion 1111 is arranged on the back side of one of the grips 111, and the plug cavity 1112 is arranged on the back side of the other grip 111. The two grips 111 are horizontally plugged through the plug protrusion 1111 and the plug cavity 1112, so that the two grips 111 are combined into one grip 111 (as shown in FIG. 8). By connecting the two grips 111 through the plug assembly 1110, the connection between the two grips 111 is made more stable.

[0026] As shown in FIGS. 3, 4, and 5, the connecting mechanism 120 includes a first connector and a second connector. In this embodiment, the first connector and the second connector are the snap component 130 and the fastener 140 respectively. The fastener 140 and the snap component 130 can be quickly installed and disassembled through snap connection. In this embodiment, there are four fasteners 140, which are arranged on the side wall of the basket body 100. The four fasteners 140 are symmetrically distributed in two pairs on the front and rear sides of the basket body 100 (as shown in FIG. 1). Each fastener 140 has a top, a middle, and a bottom. The fastener 140 includes a channel 141, which runs through the middle of the fastener 140. The top of the fastener 140 is provided with a snap groove 142. One side of the snap groove 142 facing the opening 101 is provided with a snap interface. The top of the snap groove 142 is provided with a locking hole 143, and the locking hole 143 is a through-hole.

[0027] Please continue to refer to FIGS. 3, 4, and 5. Each connecting mechanism 120 includes two snap components 130, which are arranged at both ends of the grip 111. The snap component 130 has a top and a bottom. The top of the snap component 130 is integrally formed with the grip 111 through the injection molding process. In other embodiments, the snap component 130 can also be connected to the grip 111 in other ways, such as snap connection, magnetic connection, bolt and stud connection, etc. A snap block 131 extends from the bottom of the snap component 130. The snap block 131 has a front side and a rear side, and the rear side is provided with an elastic locking protrusion 132. The locking protrusion 132 has an inclined guiding slope, which makes the locking protrusion 132 more likely to undergo elastic deformation, makes the snap action smoother, reduces the external force required for snap connection, and makes it easier for users to operate. In other embodiments (not shown), the locking holes 143 can be set as a pair of through-holes relatively distributed on the left and right sides of the snap groove 142. Correspondingly, a pair of locking protrusions 132 are arranged on the left and right sides of the snap block 131. The locking protrusions 132 on the snap block 131 cooperate with the locking holes 143 on the snap groove 142 to realize the detachable connection between the snap component 130 and the fastener 140, providing convenience for users to flexibly disassemble and install the grip 111 in different usage scenarios. In other embodiments (not shown), the snap interface of the snap groove 142 can also be arranged on the side wall of the snap groove 142. Correspondingly, the snap block 131 can also be arranged on the side wall of the snap component 130.

[0028] In other embodiments (not shown), in addition to the detachable connection method of the snap block 131 and the snap groove 142 described above, the first connector and the second connector can also be set as other detachable connection structures. For example, magnetic connection, clamp connection, buckle connection, etc. can be used; alternatively, the first connector and the second connector can be set as two hooks, and the two hooks are hooked to form a detachable connection.

[0029] In other embodiments (not shown), the two grips 111 can also be set in a circular shape, and a snap component 130 extends from the bottom of each grip 111. Correspondingly, only one fastener 140 that is snapped with the snap component 130 on each grip 111 is provided. Compared with the original structure with four fasteners 140, in this embodiment, the number of fasteners 140 is reduced to two corresponding to the number of handle assemblies 110, making the overall structure simpler and reducing the number of components. In the disassembly operation, the user does not need to operate multiple fasteners 140 in sequence. Only by dealing with the connection part between this one fastener 140 and the snap component 130 can the disassembly of the handle assembly 110 be quickly completed.

[0030] Please continue to refer to FIGS. 3, 4 and 5. In this embodiment, a flexible strap 150 is also provided between the snap component 130 and the fastener 140. The flexible strap 150 is a nylon woven strap, which has a first end and a second end. After the first end passes through the through channel 141 of the fastener 140, the strap parts on both sides of the through channel 141 are fixed on the side wall of the basket body 100 through the sewing process. At the same time, the fastener 140 is also fixed on the side wall of the basket body 100. The second end is fixedly connected to the snap component 130 through the connecting column 133 arranged inside the snap component 130. In addition, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 6, the flexible strap 150 has two forms: folded and unfolded. When the grip 111 is snapped onto the fastener 140 through the snap component 130, the flexible strap 150 is in the folded form; when the grip 111 is disassembled from the fastener 140, the flexible strap 150 is in the unfolded form, and the grip 111 can be lifted upwards to increase the height of the grip 111 relative to the basket body 100. When too many clothes are placed in the inner cavity of the laundry basket, resulting in an increase in the weight of the laundry basket, it will be very laborious to carry the basket by simply holding the handle, which is extremely inconvenient to use. At this time, the user can place the grip 111 on the shoulder and realize labor-saving handling through the shoulder load-bearing. In addition, in the unfolded form, the flexible strap 150 can also make the grip 111 hang down in the inner cavity of the basket body 100. When the basket body 100 is stored, it can be stored in the inner cavity of the basket body 100 together, improving the user's convenience.

[0031] In other embodiments (not shown), the flexible strap 150 further includes an adjustment buckle. The adjustment buckle is arranged between the first end and the second end of the flexible strap 150 and is used to adjust the length of the flexible strap 150 in the unfolded state, so that the flexible strap 150 can adjust its overall length according to different usage scenarios.

[0032] In actual use, the operation of installing the grip 111 is as follows: the snap blocks 131 on the snap components 130 on both sides of the grip 111 are aligned with the lateral openings of the snap grooves 142 of the fastener 140 and inserted into the snap grooves 142, and at this time, during the insertion process, the locking protrusions 132 are squeezed and elastically deformed; when the snap blocks 131 move to the positions of the locking holes 143 on the snap grooves 142, the locking protrusions 132 rebound and snap into the locking holes 143 to complete the locking, and at this time, the handle assembly 110 is installed on the fastener 140, the flexible strap 150 is in a folded state, and the laundry basket can be lifted and carried by the grip 111.

[0033] When it is necessary to disassemble the handle assembly 110, the locking protrusions 132 are pressed through the locking holes 143, and the locking protrusions 132 are deformed and unlocked from the locking holes 143; at this time, the grip 111 is grasped and pulled outwards to separate the snap blocks 131 from the snap grooves 142, and the handle assembly 110 is disassembled from the fastener 140. In actual use, when the laundry basket is overloaded with clothes and the weight increases, the grip 111 can be disassembled to make the flexible strap 150 in an unfolded state. The user can place the grip 111 on the shoulder and achieve labor-saving handling through shoulder load-bearing.

[0034] When it is necessary to store the laundry basket, after disassembling the grips 111 on the left and right sides, the flexible strap 150 is in an unfolded state; the handle assembly 110 is caused to hang down into the inner cavity of the basket body 100, and then the basket body 100 is folded and stored. This process is simple and fast. The overall volume of the folded basket body 100 is reduced, and it does not occupy too much storage space, which is convenient for users with limited living space.

[0035] The handle applied to the laundry basket provided by the present disclosure exhibits significant beneficial effects in multiple aspects. When the grip 111 is snap-fitted to the fastener 140 through the snap component 130, an ergonomic handle structure is formed, which facilitates manual carrying in the normal state. After disassembly, the flexible strap 150 unfolds and extends, allowing the handle assembly 110 to be raised to a height adapted for shoulder carrying, enabling labor-saving shoulder carrying in the heavy-load state. The two modes can be freely switched according to the load weight, which is convenient for users to carry the laundry basket. The basket body 100 is made of a flexible textile material, making it foldable. When not in use, it can greatly save storage space and effectively solve the problem of limited living space. At the same time, the handle assembly 110 can also be stored together when the basket body 100 is stored. The grips 111 of the two handle assemblies 110 can be combined into one handle assembly 110, which is convenient for users to grasp with one hand. It meets the usage needs of users in different scenarios and expands the application scope of the laundry basket.
