The present invention relates to a releasably attached standing or level platform device for attachment to a wheeled shopping cart. The device has a generally level surface or trolley extension that releasably hooks onto a bottom of a shopping cart using a pair of hooks. The hooks are positioned at terminal ends of a rectangular U-shape arm that is attached to a telescoping arm. The U-shape arm is configured to be adjustable in width and the telescoping arm adjusts the height of the standing or level platform device. In use, a child stands on a top surface, and the wheels of the device track the movements of the wheels of the shopping cart thereby enabling the child to ride along with the wheeled cart without walking or without sitting in the wheeled shopping cart.

A child seat includes a base and a seatback movable relative thereto between a retracted position, in which the seatback preferably is flush with a top of the base, and an extended position, in which a sitting area of the child seat is exposed for sitting and in which the seatback serves to support a child's back. The seatback of the child seat preferably includes a seat belt for restraint of a child when seated in the sitting area. A shopping cart includes the child seat. The seatback includes a gate movable between a retracted position, in which the gate preferably is flush with the seatback, and an extended position, in which the gate extends in a generally upright manner and partially blocks leg openings of the basket to keep items from falling there through when the seatback is in the retracted position.

A cart may include a first set of lower support arms and a second set of lower support arms, each of the lower support arms having a wheel attached thereto; a first set of upper support arms and a second set of upper support arms; a holding frame coupled to the first set of upper support arms and the second set of upper support arms; a locking mechanism; and a folding mechanism configured to allow the cart to transition between a folded position and unfolded position. During transition, the first set of upper support arms may be moveable relative to the second set of upper support arms; the first set of lower support arms may be moveable relative to the second set of lower support arms; and the first set of upper support arms may be moveable relative to the first set of lower support arms.

A child seat includes a base and a seatback movable relative thereto between a retracted position, in which the seatback preferably is flush with a top of the base, and an extended position, in which a sitting area of the child seat is exposed for sitting and in which the seatback serves to support a child's back. The seatback of the child seat preferably includes a seat belt for restraint of a child when seated in the sitting area. A shopping cart includes the child seat. The seatback includes a gate movable between a retracted position, in which the gate preferably is flush with the seatback, and an extended position, in which the gate extends in a generally upright manner and partially blocks leg openings of the basket to keep items from falling there through when the seatback is in the retracted position.

An infant carrier holder has a floor with a ramp and sidewalls and is mounted to a shopping cart. The ramp and sidewalls can contribute to stably supporting an infant carrier. The holder serves as a mechanical interface between an infant carrier, which can be received in the holder, and the shopping cart. The holder can be concavely shaped to assist in shopping cart nesting in addition to supporting a received infant carrier at a desired angle. The holder can be adjustably mounted to a gate or a basket of the shopping cart and may/may not interfere with nesting operations. The holder permits an infant carrier to be supported on a shopping cart without using a significant amount of shopping cart space or interfering with nesting operations.

The shopping cart of the present disclosure may be used to carry and transport goods. The cart includes a basket and a chassis wherein the chassis includes legs rotatable from an open position to a closed position. The basket is rotatably affixed to the chassis such that the cart may be placed in a vehicle trunk while the basket maintains a horizontal position.

A personal electronic shopping cart (marCart) having a portable scanning device to eliminate the common practice involving picking up a shopping cart from the store to load and unload then reload before exiting the store then unload again into your vehicle.

The marCart can be hauled from behind any vehicle or humanly operated with its battery-powered mechanism. The marCart also come with Wireless Self Checkout Register to be installed inside of the store for check out purposes. The marCart Wireless Self Checkout Register connect to the marCart. The marCart size is designed in compliances with guidelines established by proper authority. For many years, people make the trip to the store to shop for many different items; groceries, clothes, etc . . . one common practice involve picking up a shopping cart, go inside of the store, pick items then place them in the shopping cart then go to the register remove every items, pay for them then place them back in the cart, push it outside the store unload then place in the vehicle.

The invention relates to a nestable shopping trolley comprising a foldable child-seat assembly having: a backrest movably mounted on the rear wall of the basket; and a cover arrangement which is pivotally provided on the rear wall, which rests on a seat arrangement and which, when pivoted upwards, closes leg-holes in the rear wall. When the child-seat assembly is not in use, the rear wall, the seat arrangement and the cover arrangement lie tightly against one another with the seat arrangement hanging downwards and the cover arrangement pointing upwards. The cover arrangement has two projecting parts pointing outwards in opposite directions and the backrest has a central section and two sliding sections laterally bordering the central section, the projecting parts sliding along the sliding sections of the backrest and said sliding sections forming respective spaces that are occupied by the projecting parts when the child-seat assembly is not in use.

A car seat holder is used to support a portable infant car seat by providing a flexible support. The apparatus comprises a first support, a second support, and a canvas. The first support and the second support are elongated members that extend across a shopping cart. The first support and the second support are rigid members that distribute the weight of an infant carriage device. The canvas is a flexible surface that extends from the first support to the second support across the shopping cart. The canvas provides a mechanism for transmitting the weight of the infant carriage device to the first support and the second support. In this way, the first support and second support hold the canvas in optimal position for holding an infant car seat. This arrangement frees up space within a shopping cart.

A child seat includes a base and a seatback movable relative thereto between a retracted position, in which the seatback preferably is flush with a top of the base, and an extended position, in which a sitting area of the child seat is exposed for sitting and in which the seatback serves to support a child's back. The seatback of the child seat preferably includes a seat belt for restraint of a child when seated in the sitting area. A shopping cart includes the child seat. The seatback includes a gate movable between a retracted position, in which the gate preferably is flush with the seatback, and an extended position, in which the gate extends in a generally upright manner and partially blocks leg openings of the basket to keep items from falling there through when the seatback is in the retracted position.
