The application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 202310571266.0, filed on May 18, 2023, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates to the technical field of item storage, specifically concerning a storage basket and a method for using the storage basket.
Existing storage baskets typically have a fixed storage cavity for storing various household items such as clothes, toys, fabrics, books, and other miscellaneous items. Therefore, around the storage cavity, there are supporting frames or structures to provide stability for the storage cavity. However, the setup of supporting structures adds weight to the entire storage basket, making it burdensome to transport and move. Consequently, after loading items, the storage basket becomes less suitable for moving and transporting, especially in scenarios where the basket needs to be moved to specific locations, such as transferring washed clothes to a drying area or moving dirty laundry to a washing machine.
Moreover, existing storage baskets mostly have integral or fixed connections between the storage space and the supporting structure to ensure stable storage space and internal support. These methods make it difficult to disassemble the actual working storage part of the storage basket, inconveniencing users for subsequent replacement and cleaning of the storage part. However, simply nesting the two together, although facilitating disassembly, cannot guarantee that the storage basket can form a stable storage space, thus hindering its utility for stable storage tasks.
Additionally, existing storage baskets mostly have a single integrated storage space, making it impossible to classify stored items. This not only limits the scenarios of use but also fails to provide users with a good user experience. Even if some storage baskets have added horizontal boards for classification, this classification is merely a spatial division within the same area; it separates but does not isolate, as each classified storage space still depends on the original area to function. Retrieving items from different classifications still requires moving or operating the entire original storage area, which is inconvenient.
Therefore, to address the problems and shortcomings of existing technology, there is an urgent need to design a storage basket that facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the actual working storage part of the basket, ensures a stable and lightweight connection or support structure between the main body and the storage part, assists the basket in forming a stable storage space, and facilitates transfer and transportation. Additionally, the storage part needs to achieve classification storage to meet different user needs, enhance the user experience, and allow each classified storage space to operate independently of the main basket, making it easier and more efficient for users to retrieve different types of items.
The present invention provides a storage basket and a method for using the storage basket to address the drawbacks of existing technologies. The storage basket is divided into a receiving cylinder for supporting, limiting, and moving, and a receiving bag for providing storage space, both of which can function as independent entities to facilitate convenient disassembly and interaction between them. The receiving bag is equipped with components at the opening for supporting the opening, enabling it to provide stable storage space. The opening of the receiving cylinder is equipped with a bearing component for connecting to support the receiving bag, allowing the bearing component to connect to the supporting opening component at the opening of the receiving bag to continuously and stably support the receiving bag, further assisting the receiving bag in forming stable storage space. The connection between the bearing component and the supporting opening component is stable, lightweight, and practical, without adding burden to the transportation and movement of the storage basket.
Furthermore, the storage cylinder of the present invention can also choose to place multiple receiving bag of the same specification to achieve the function of classified storage. The connection method between each receiving bag and the receiving cylinder is the same, all of which can form stable classified storage space. Each receiving bag can be disassembled and assembled, taken out of the storage cylinder separately for use, without the need to move the entire storage basket as a whole, greatly saving labor and assisting users in taking out different types of items more conveniently and efficiently.
