Mobile battery powered workstation carts for order fulfillment are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a battery powered workstation cart may comprise a wheeled cart having a frame, a rechargeable lithium battery, a computer, a barcode reader/scanner, a RFID reader/scanner, a printer, an artificial intelligence hub, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), and/or GPS. The frame may also comprise two side bracket arms and/or shelves, which may be modular to receive various different sized baskets, bins, or totes therein to expedite retail order fulfillment.

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 nestable shopping cart includes an upright frame, an upper angle support and a pair of tie bars extending out from the upright frame. A tray is pivotally connected to the upright frame. The tray includes a utility position and a nested position. The tray includes a tapered front and at least one side. A slope plate is mounted to at least one side of the tray. In the nested position, the nestable shopping cart is nested with another nestable shopping cart, resulting in a nesting gap of about 11 inches between the shopping carts.

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 shopping cart includes a frame, a plurality of wheels for supporting the frame for movement over a floor, an arm connected to the frame, and a projection positioned proximate at least one of the wheels. The frame has a front end and a rear end. The arm is configured to engage the tow member for moving the frame. The projection engages the guide member to prevent one of the front end and the rear end from rotating over the other of the front end and the rear end. A handle assembly may include an elongated slot positioned proximate a handle. The shopping cart may also include a tray is releasably secured to the frame by inserting a tab into a slot. The shopping cart may also include a tab received within a slot to secure a basket against movement relative to the frame.

A nestable shopping cart has an upright frame, and a tray pivotally connected to the upright frame. The tray includes a utility position, a nested position, an inside, and an outside. Further included is a perimeter wire surrounding the tray and a tapered front. The perimeter wire surrounds the outside of the tray until the tapered front, and then the perimeter wire surrounds the inside of the tapered front.

A nestable shopping cart includes an upright frame, an upper angle support and a pair of tie bars extending out from the upright frame. A tray is pivotally connected to the upright frame. The tray includes a utility position and a nested position. The tray includes a tapered front and at least one side. A slope plate is mounted to at least one side of the tray. In the nested position, the nestable shopping cart is nested with another nestable shopping cart, resulting in a nesting gap of about 11 inches between the shopping carts.

The present invention discloses a collapsible cart with a base panel and basket support frame. Two hinge mounts extend from the base frame and a hinge pin extends from each hinge mount. The basket support frame has two support beams that are slidably and rotatable mounted on the hinge pins. Each hinge mount forms a receiving space that can receive and block rotation of each support beam. A cable made of flexible material mounts between the two support beams. When a downward or upward force is exerted on the cable, each end of the cable pulls the support beams towards each other along the longitudinal axis of the hinge pin causing the support beams to move into a position which is clear of the receiving space and allows rotation around the hinge pins towards the base panel and into a collapsed position.
