ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a shopping cart which utilizes a conventional trapezoidal-shaped basket mounted in a cantilevered fashion to a wheeled undercarriage. The large end of the basket is the front of the shopping car and has a gate which rotates to provide a means of nesting with other carts of a similar design. An inherently-safer child seat is provided which is located at the narrow, rear end of the basket, and the bottom of the child seat coincides with the bottom of the basket. The child seat is surrounded on three sides by high walls, which prevent a small child located in the child seat from leaning out over the sides of the shopping cart and thereby upsetting the balance of the cart, as well as protecting the child from impacts with other objects. The handle of the shopping cart rotates to enable nesting with other carts and to aid in the placement and removal of a child in the child seat provided. Preferably, the child seat is also provided with a harness or a seat belt to help restrain a small child placed in the seat. An optional seat flap enables the child seat to be converted into useful basket space whenever the child seat is not occupied by a child.
