The front stopper, the rear stopper 3 and the side stoppers 4 are connected to the front side, the rear side, and the left and right sides of the bottom 1. The rear stopper 3 is detachably connected to the bottom 1. When the rear stopper 3 is removed, an opening 5 for objects to enter the basket from back to front is formed at a rear side of the basket 30d. In this embodiment, the bottom 1 also includes a shielding member 16 which is formed by upwardly bending and extending an end of the bottom 1. A gap between the rear stopper 3 and the bottom 1 is formed when the rear stopper 3 is connected to the rear side of the bottom 1, and can be shielded by the shielding member 16 to prevent objects from slipping out of the gap. Specifically, the shielding member 16 is connected to a lower edge of the rear stopper 3 by a first connecting member 17, which may be, for example, a fastener or Velcro, but not limited thereto. In this embodiment, both sides of the rear stopper 3 are further detachably connected to the side stoppers 4. Specifically, each side of the rear stopper 3 is connected to the side stopper 4 by a second connecting member 18 to achieve a detachable connection. For example, the second connecting member 18 is a magnet or a fastener, and not limited thereto.
FIGS. 7-9 show a basket 30e according to a fifth embodiment of the present disclosure, which is applied to a stroller 100. The structure is basically the same as that of the basket 30d of the fourth embodiment, in which the rear stopper 3 is detachably connected to the bottom 1, and an opening 5 is formed at a rear side of the basket 30e for objects to enter the basket 30e from back to front when the rear stopper 3 is removed. The differences reside in that, in this embodiment, a first zipper 8 is provided at the bottom of the rear stopper 3, and a second zipper 9 is provided at a surface of the bottom 1. The first zipper 8 is connected to the second zipper 9 by a chain head (not shown). A carriage bag 11 is further provided at the surface of the bottom 1.

FIGS. 10 to 13 show a basket 30f according to a sixth embodiment of the present disclosure, which is applied to a stroller 100. The structure is basically the same as that of the basket 30d of the fourth embodiment, in which the rear stopper 3 is detachably connected to the bottom 1, and an opening 5 is formed at a rear side of the basket 30f for objects to enter the basket 30f from back to front when the rear stopper 3 is removed. The differences reside in that, in this embodiment, the basket 30f also includes a side insert 13, which is provided on the right side of the bottom 1. Obviously, the side insert can be provided on the left side of the bottom 1, and not limited thereto. The rear stopper 3 includes two connecting segments 31 and a stopping segment 32 connected between the two connecting segments 31. The connecting segment 31 of the rear stopper 3 corresponding to the side insert 13 has a pocket 311 with an opening facing downward, and the pocket 311 is placed downward over the side insert 13. The other connecting segment 31 of the rear stopper 3 is rotatably connected to the bottom 1. For example, one side of this connecting segment 31 is fixed to the bottom 1 by sewing, so that the connecting segment 31 can be rotated with respect to the bottom 1, but not limited to this. One end of the side insert 13 is rotatably connected to the bottom 1, and can be rotated with respect to the bottom 1 to a position where it fits on the side stopper 4. The side insert 13 is provided with a third magnet structure (not shown), so that it can fit on the frame 10 by the attraction between the third magnet structure and the frame 10. The connecting segment 31 of the rear stopper 3 that is not placed over the side insert 13 is provided with a fourth magnet structure (not shown), and the rear stopper 3 is fitted to the frame 10 by the attraction between the fourth magnet structure and the frame 10. As such, the rear stopper 3 is upright on the bottom 1, and the stopping segment 32 blocks the opening 5 of the basket 30f (as shown in FIG. 10). When a user needs to put objects into the basket 30f through the opening 5, the connecting segment 31 with the pocket 311 is lifted upward, so that the connecting segment 31 is separated away from the side insert 13. The rear stopper 3 can be folded downward along the connection between the other connecting segment 31 and the bottom 1 so that the rear stopper 3 overlaps with the bottom 1, thus exposing the opening 5 for objects to be put in. In addition, in other embodiments, the basket 30f can also include two side inserts 13 connected to the left and right sides of the bottom 1 respectively, and the connecting segments 31 on the left and right sides of the rear stopper 3 are respective provided with pockets 311 with openings facing downward. The pockets 311 are placed downwardly over the side inserts 13 correspondingly. One end of the side insert 13 is rotatably connected to the bottom 1, and can be rotated with respect to the bottom 1 to a position where it fits on the side stopper 4. The side insert 13 is provided with a third magnet structure (not shown), and the side stopper 4 or the frame 10 is provided with a fourth magnet structure (not shown). The side inserts 13 is fitted on the side stopper 4 or the frame 10 by the mutual attraction between the third magnet structure and the fourth magnet structure. When the opening 5 needs to be exposed, the two connecting segments 31 are lifted upward and separated away from the side inserts 13, and the rear stopper 3 is then folded. Obviously, in an embodiment, the bottom 1 can be provided with a storage bag for the folded rear stopper 3.
FIGS. 14 to 15 show a basket 30g according to the seventh embodiment of the present disclosure, which is applied to a stroller 100. The basket 30g includes a bottom 1, a front stopper, a rear stopper 3 and two side stoppers 4. The front stopper, the rear stopper 3 and the side stoppers 4 are connected to the front side, the rear side, and the left and right sides of the bottom 1. The rear stopper 3 moves with respect to the bottom 1 so that an opening 5 is formed at a rear side of the basket 30g for objects to enter the basket 30g from back to front. Specifically, in this embodiment, each side of the rear stopper 3 is pivotally connected to the side stoppers 4, and the rear stopper 3 is pivoted with respect to the bottom 1 around a pivot point K to be switched between a stopping position intersecting the bottom 1 and a flat position parallel to the bottom 1. When the rear stopper 3 is in the flat position, the opening 5 of the basket 30g is formed. Specifically, the rear stopper 3 has a rigid structure and is pivoted downward with respect to the bottom 1 to be switched between the stopping position and the flat position in the same plane as the bottom 1. Further, the bottom 1 includes a shielding member 16 formed by upwardly bending and extending an end of the bottom 1. When the rear stopper is in the stopping position, it shields a gap between the rear stopper 3 and the bottom 1 to prevent objects from directly slipping out of the gap. When the rear stopper 3 is in the stopping position, the shielding member 16 is connected to a lower edge of the rear stopper 3 by a third connecting member 19, which may be, for example, a fastener or Velcro, and not limited thereto.
FIGS. 16 to 19 show a basket 30h according to the eighth embodiment of the present disclosure, which is applied to a stroller 100. The basket 30h includes a bottom 1, a front stopper 2, a rear stopper 3 and two side stoppers 4. The front stopper 2, the rear stopper 3 and the side stoppers 4 are connected to the front side, the rear side, and the left and right sides of the bottom 1. The structure is basically the same as that of the basket 30g of the seventh embodiment, in which the rear stopper 3 is pivoted around a pivot point K with respect to the bottom 1 so that an opening 5 is formed at a rear side of the basket 30h for objects to enter the basket 30h from back to front. The differences reside in that, in this embodiment, the rear stopper 3 has a flexible structure and is pivotable with respect to the bottom 1 so as to be switched between a stopping position and a stowed position relative to the stopping position. Specifically, the rear stopper 3 includes connecting segments 31 at two ends and pivotally connected to a pivot point K, and a stopping segment 32 connected between the two connecting segments 31. The pivot point K is disposed on the side stopper 4, and it is understandable that, in other embodiments, the pivot point K may be disposed on the frame 10, and thus the arrangement of the pivot point is not limited. When the rear stopper 3 is in the stopping position, a bottom edge of the rear stopper 3 can abut against the surface of the bottom 1, and the stopping segment 32 blocks the opening 5. When the rear stopper 3 is in the stowed position, a top edge of the rear stopper 3 abuts against the bottom 1. The rear stopper 3 can be folded along the junction of the connecting segment 31 and the stopping segment 32, so that the stopping segment 32 can be lowered and flattened on the bottom 1 to expose the opening 5. The rear stopper 3 has a first magnet structure (not shown) and the bottom 1 has a second magnet structure (not shown). When the rear stopper 3 is in the stopping position, the first magnetic structure and the second magnetic structure are mutually attracted to connect rear stopper 3 to the bottom 1.
FIGS. 20 to 21 show a basket 30i according to the ninth embodiment of the present disclosure, which is applied to a stroller 100. The structure is basically the same as that of the basket 30g of the seventh embodiment. The differences reside in that, in this embodiment, the rear stopper 3 includes a male buckle 14 at its bottom, and the bottom 1 includes a female buckle 15 that is fastened to the male buckle 14. When the rear stopper 3 is in the stopping position, the male buckle 14 is fastened to the female buckle 15 so that the rear stopper 3 is connected to the bottom 1. Obviously, in other embodiments, the bottom of the rear stopper 3 may include both a first magnet structure and the male buckle 14, and the bottom 1 includes both a second magnet structure and the female buckle 15. The rear stopper 3 and the bottom 1 are connected by mutual attraction between the first magnet structure and the second magnet structure, and by the fastening between the male buckle 14 and the female buckle 15, thereby making the connection between the rear stopper 3 and the bottom 1 more tightly, and thus the connection is not limited to the above.
Compared with the prior art, according to the basket 30a-30i of the present disclosure, by connecting the front stopper, the rear stopper 3 and side stoppers 4 to the front side, the rear side, and the left and right sides of the bottom 1, the objects in the baskets 30a-30i are unlikely to be lost. By the movement of the rear stopper 3 with respect to the bottom 1 or the deformation of the rear stopper 3 itself, an opening 5 is formed at the rear side of the basket 30a-30i. Alternatively, by the detachable connection of the rear stopper 3 to the bottom 1, an opening 5 is formed at the rear side of the basket 30a-30i when the rear stopper 3 is removed. With the opening 5, it is convenient for objects to enter the basket 30a-30i from back to front. Especially for large objects, it is more convenient to enter the basket directly from the rear side, overcoming the defect that a rear side of a conventional basket hinders the entry of objects. Particularly when people choose to travel with two carriers, i.e., a stroller 100 and a baby basket, the baby basket, when not used, can be placed in the basket with above three structures.
What is disclosed above relates only to embodiments of the present disclosure, which cannot be used to limit the scope of the rights of the present disclosure, and any equivalent change made based on the claims of the application should be covered by the present disclosure.
