ABSTRACT:
A collapsible basket having an upper generally rectangular frame with side and end rail portions. The side rail portions comprise a plurality of telescoping sections whereby the lengths of the side rail portions may readily be extended or retracted. The bottom wall of the basket consists of a lazy tong linkage lying generally in a plane parallel to the plane of the upper frame and is therefore extensible and retractible in a lengthwise direction. A series of flexible strap members are spaced about the upper frame and extend downwardly to and are connected with the ends of the links of the lazy tong bottom wall structure. The upper ends of the strap members have loops which extend about and are slideable along the side rails of the upper frame of the basket.
