The current invention may be to provide a modular luggage system having an at least one modular bag that may be configured to be secured to a cart configured to be fully-collapsible. In this embodiment, the collapsible adjustable cart may be configured in a nested configuration such that it may be a unibody structure that may be easily collapsed and stored, preferably in one or more modular bags. In this embodiment, the cart may further include a plurality of telescoping arms coupled to a base support as well as a plurality of extendable wheels secured to the base support through at least one wheel coupler. The adjustable support surface may be expandable through the use of one or more collapsible surfaces such that it may better accommodate one or more modular bags. The invention may also provide a belt-mounted stair guide mechanism to assist a user maneuver an adjustable cart up stairs, or other irregular elevated surfaces.

A cart includes a chassis and attached wheels; an upper basket attached to the chassis; and a lower basket attached to the chassis. In some embodiments, the cart includes no widthwise push bar in a rear of the cart such that access is unobstructed to the upper and lower baskets from the rear of the cart by a person. In some embodiments, the chassis defines on each lateral side of the cart a pair of vertically spaced handles, each handle surrounding and defining an opening. The handles preferably include handle bars shaped in an oval. On each cart side a curved elongate member extends between and connects the handles, and the curved elongate members represent the rearmost part of the cart. The rear area of the upper basket defines a seat for an infant, and a rear ledge of the lower basket defines a seat for a toddler.

Disclosed herein relates to a system, comprising: at least one load receiver mounted on a shopping cart or basket and configured to receive an item placed into the shopping cart or basket for a weighing operation; a plurality of sensors configured to detect a plurality of parameters relating to the weighing operation of the item including at least one of: a relative angle between a force sensing axis of the at least one load receiver and a direction of gravity, a motion of the shopping cart or basket, and an ambient temperature surrounding the shopping cart or basket and the at least one load receiver; and a processor configured to determine an actual weight of the item based on at least a portion of the plurality of parameters.

An improved auxiliary container for connection to a shopping cart is disclosed. The auxiliary container provides specialized capacity for small items, while providing numerous advantages to retailers and users.

A transporting device includes a first carrying device and a second carrying device arranged above the first carrying device. The first carrying device is wider than the second carrying device. The first carrying device has first fixing members each arranged in the rear area of the carrying device and on both sides. A handle device for moving the carrying device is fixed to each first fixing members. The second carrying device has second fixing members each arranged in the rear area of the carrying device and on both sides. Each handle device is additionally fixed to the nearest of the two second fixing members. Between the two handle devices an interspace is formed, which is used by the second carrying device of a rear transporting device when the latter is pushed into a transporting device located in front.

A cart includes a chassis and attached wheels; an upper basket attached to the chassis; and a lower basket attached to the chassis. In some embodiments, the cart includes no widthwise push bar in a rear of the cart such that access is unobstructed to the upper and lower baskets from the rear of the cart by a person. In some embodiments, the chassis defines on each lateral side of the cart a pair of vertically spaced handles, each handle surrounding and defining an opening. The handles preferably include handle bars shaped in an oval. On each cart side a curved elongate member extends between and connects the handles, and the curved elongate members represent the rearmost part of the cart. The rear area of the upper basket defines a seat for an infant, and a rear ledge of the lower basket defines a seat for a toddler.

A nestable shopping trolley (10) comprising a basket (100) defining an interior space and having a hingeable wall (120) formed by a flap (125) having a first horizontal hinge (500) enabling the flap to rotate into the interior space. The nestable shopping trolley (10) also comprises a first shelf 600 having a supporting surface (605), a stowed position and a horizontal position. The nestable shopping trolley (10) also comprises a second horizontal hinge (620) connecting the first shelf 600 to a first side wall (140) of the basket (100), wherein the second horizontal hinge (620) enables movement of the first shelf (600) between the stowed and horizontal positions. The present invention also provides a kit for adapting a basket (100) of a nestable shopping trolley (10) and a method of adapting a basket (100) of a nestable shopping trolley (10).

In some embodiments, shopping cart apparatuses are provided herein useful to enable a consumer to reach commercial products positioned above the consumer. In some embodiments, a cart frame having cart wheels coupled to the cart frame is provided. A slide mechanism is slidably cooperated with the cart frame. A weight-bearing platform is secured with the slide mechanism and sliding between stowed and deployed positions such that the weight-bearing platform is moved away from a rear portion of the cart frame when the slide mechanism is in the deployed position. A restricting element is positioned near a front cart wheel and restricts the rotation thereof when the slide mechanism is in the deployed position. A support element is affixed to the weight-bearing platform. An elevating element is secured to the slide mechanism and configured to elevate the cart frame when the threshold amount of pressure is applied upon the weight-bearing platform.
