ABSTRACT:
An over-the-counter shopping cart having an improved baby seat compartment wherein the backrest of the baby seat is hinged to collapse rearwardly towards the back wall of the cart whenever the main merchandise-carrying basket is hinged upwardly to nest the carts. Accordingly, each time a customer picks up a nested cart, the baby seat compartment is opened with the main merchandise compartment to increase the size of the basket. The backrest of the baby seat compartment is also provided with a protruding extension member along a top edge thereof to maintain the leg holes in the rear wall of the baby seat compartment obstructed so that merchandise placed in the cart does not fall through these leg holes. Because the backrest is not retainingly engaged, when in a position of use, it is usually in a collapsed position when the baby seat compartment is not used, thereby not providing a separating wall in the merchandise compartment so that a cashier may unload the merchandise from the front end of a basket without obstruction or having to release an engaged backrest in the rear part of the cart.
