ABSTRACT:
A bumper for a shopping cart basket is molded of an elastomeric plastics material which is relatively soft and provides the bumper with desirable cushioning effect. The bumper is sized to extend substantially the full vertical extent of the basket front corner. The bumper has rounded convex and concave outer and inner surfaces respectively to provide a smooth outer configuration and a smooth inner configuration which snugly mounts against the cart basket. The bumper has pairs of vertically-spaced inwardly projecting mounting flanges integrally molded thereon and provided adjacent the upper and lower ends thereof, which pairs respectively straddle one of the uppermost and lowermost horizontal basket wires. The bumper also has one or more intermediate mounting flanges which also project inwardly for vertical disposition between the upper and lower pairs. A mounting rod is positioned inside of the horizontal basket wires and is slidably inserted through aligned openings formed in the mounting flanges to fixedly secure the bumper to the basket.
