A trolley configured for use to carry both round and rectangular folding tables of a variety of sizes. The trolley includes a frame having a floor located adjacent a loading end of the frame. The floor includes a planar central portion bounded on each side by angled ramp portions which terminate at elevated flat portions, one of the elevated flat portions being located adjacent the loading end of the frame; and a plurality of receivers located on the frame. The trolley also includes a handle rack locatable at an end of the frame opposite the loading end of the frame. The handle rack includes a pair of rack legs, each rack leg having a handle rack mount located at a lower end of the rack leg and configured to be received by one of the receivers of the frame. The handle rack mounts cooperate with corresponding ones of the receivers of the frame to enable the handle rack to be mounted to the frame and selectively positioned in either an upright position relative to the frame or in a folded orientation wherein the handle rack is folded to a lowered position adjacent the frame. The trolley also includes a pair of side rails locatable adjacent sides of the frame, the side rails including a pair of rail legs. Each rail leg has a rail mount located at a lower end of the rail leg and configured to be received by one of the receivers of the frame. The rail mounts cooperate with corresponding ones of the receivers of the frame to enable the side rails to be mounted to the frame and selectively positioned in either an upright position relative to the frame or in a folded orientation wherein the side rails are each folded to a lowered position adjacent the frame.

A utility cart system for a motor vehicle includes a support frame, a base, a folding wall assembly and a folding leg assembly. A method of transporting goods to and from a motor vehicle utilizing a utility cart system is also described.

A folding shopping cart includes a body frame with a frame connecting base secured at the first end of the body frame. The shopping cart also includes a lower first frame member and an upper second frame member telescopically engaged to define a vertical frame member, wherein a bottom of the lower first frame member is hinged on the frame connecting base. A handlebar is connected with the upper second frame member and front wheels are secured to a second end of the body frame opposite the first end of the body frame. First and second folding rear wheels are respectively secured on opposite sides of the frame connecting base. A button is mechanically linked to a telescopic locking device controlling relative movement between the lower first frame member and the upper second frame member. At least one basket is detachably secured thereto.

A collapsible shopping cart including a collapsible wheeled chassis and a cargo basket mounted thereto. The chassis has a pair of right and left side front and rear beams pivotably attached to a cargo basket floor panel which, in turn, is surrounded with a pair of longitudinal side wall panels, a front wall panel, and a rear panel hingedly attached on a bottom to the floor panel. Each of the front beams extend rearwardly beyond the rear panel and has a distal handle. The rear beams extend forwardly and attach at one end to a rear axle and at the other end to the floor panel. Each longitudinal side wall panel and the floor panel have extension portions extending beyond the rear panel. A maneuvering wheel is disposed on a distal end of the floor panel extension portion floor panel to roll the shopping cart into a vehicle's cargo area.

Described is a shopping cart used to collect items in a retail store and transport them throughout the store and/or to a customer's vehicle. The shopping cart is configured to make it easier to load and unload heavy and awkward items. The shopping cart has a shopping cart basket and a support structure supporting the shopping cart basket above a wheel assembly. A front panel of the shopping cart basket rolls on wheels and tracks to a position above the basket or below the shopping basket. The shopping cart also has a lifting mechanism for raising and lowering the shopping cart basket. A customer can raise or lower the shopping cart basket and slide the front panel out of the way, if needed, for easy loading and unloading of the shopping cart. These features make it easier for the customer to load and unload heavy and awkward items.

A compact multifunction collapsible stroller and cart which provides increased convenience with its small factor when collapsed. It is able to be reversibly converted from a stroller to a shopping or utility cart. The seat and receptacle of the invention have no rigid connections to the wheeled frame, instead they are suspended in place by non-rigid connections such as cables or wires connecting them to the wheeled frame. The wheeled frame may be telescopic and collapsible, and can be wrapped in the flexible material of the seat or cart receptacle thereby allowing the seat or cart receptacle to act as a carrying bag.

A shopping cart basket comprises one or more modular baskets couplable to a bottom basket having a plurality of wheels extending downwardly to allow the shopping cart basket to roll. Each of the modular baskets has a foldable bottom wall that can act as a bottom of a separate basket or can be folded against a side wall of the modular basket. The modular baskets could be used to hold items within a smaller compartment, and can be combined with the bottom basket to form a roll-able shopping cart having a larger compartment. Such a cart is advantageously used in a store, such as a grocery store, a retail shopping mall, or a home improvement store.

A cart includes a chassis configured to carry a basket and a support structure having a carrier coupled to the chassis, a pair of rear legs coupled to the carrier, and a pair of front legs coupled to the carrier, at least one of the pair of front legs and the pair of rear legs having motor driven wheels coupled thereto, at least one carrier actuator configured to move the chassis relative to the carrier, the pair of front legs including actuators which are configured to extend and retract the pair of front legs, and the pair of rear legs including actuators which are configured to extend and retract the pair of rear legs. The cart includes at least one sensor supported on the cart. The cart also includes at least one processing unit configured with software instructions that enable autonomous self-loading of the cart into a vehicle. The processing unit receives signals from the at least one sensor and providing command signals to any of the wheel motors, the at least one carrier actuator, the front leg actuators, and the rear leg actuators.
