The Portable Shopping Cart features a lightweight aluminum alloy main frame and a reinforced steel wire mesh basket. The basket features a reinforced bottom support plate, a telescopic push handle, and an EVA non-slip grip. Tie-down points and side hooks are located in the middle section, and silent, swivel, rear-directional casters with a pedal brake are located below.

Portable Shopping Cart Features

Lightweight Construction

The Portable Shopping Cart's main frame is constructed from a hybrid of 6061 aluminum alloy and carbon steel. The main frame is constructed from a combination of 18 x 1 mm and 16 x 0.8 mm tubing, resulting in a net weight of approximately 5.8 to 6.3 kg. The bottom beam features a "cross" reinforcement and triangular bracing to distribute concentrated loads, offering a static load capacity of 70 kg and a dynamic load capacity of 45 kg. The basket's 3 mm steel wire and 25 x 25 mm mesh ensure that small items are not lost, providing the strength and rigidity required for daily bulk shopping.

Quick Folding

The folding mechanism utilizes a double linkage with a safety buckle, allowing for expansion and folding in two to three seconds. The folded dimensions are approximately 980 x 400 x 16 cm, allowing for self-standing storage without taking up space in entryways or hallways. When unfolded, the linkage automatically locks and features a mechanical secondary safety, preventing folding during transport. This ensures easy access to the trunk and enhances efficiency for short-distance deliveries.

Quiet Wheels

The Portable Shopping Cart features five-inch, 360-degree swivel front wheels and seven-inch directional rear wheels. The tread is made of low-noise TPE material, and the wheels are 25 to 28 mm wide. Dual ball bearings reduce rolling resistance. Operating at 3 km/h on tiled surfaces, the noise level is no more than 55 decibels, and even gliding over 15 to 20 mm gaps is smooth. Optional eight-inch rear wheels are available for outdoor use on stone and asphalt surfaces, ensuring smooth transitions between different scenarios.

Stable and Anti-Tipping

The Portable Shopping Cart has a wheelbase of approximately 480 mm, shifting its center of gravity rearward, placing approximately 55% of the load on the rear axle for greater stability in straight-line driving. With a ground clearance of 140 to 160 mm, it can navigate speed bumps without scraping. The integrated rear wheel brake pedal provides a clear feel and instantly locks when loading and unloading on ramps. The minimum turning radius is less than one meter, allowing for quick U-turns in narrow lanes and elevators.

Large Loading Capacity

The basket's internal dimensions are approximately 600 x 400 x 320 mm, with an effective volume of 60 to 65 liters. The base platform measures 420 x 300 mm, allowing for additional stacking of cartons and rice bags. Standardly equipped with a 600 mm bungee cord and two side lashing holes, each with a single-point pull of at least 10 kg, long objects can be tied and secured along the vertical pipes, preventing slippage or shaking during operation.

Corrosion and Weather Resistant

The powder coating is 70 to 90 microns thick and exhibits no blistering or noticeable gloss loss after 72 hours of neutral salt spray testing. Fasteners are galvanized bolts with lock washers. Welds are ground and sealed with a primer. They remain colorfast even after 1,000 wipes with common alcohol and neutral detergents. Operating temperatures range from -20 to 60°C, making them suitable for both cold storage restocking and summer exposure.

Ergonomically designed for comfort

The Portable Shopping Cart's retractable handle offers three height settings: 980, 1,020, and 1,060 mm, suitable for heights between 155 and 190 cm. The 20 mm thick EVA grip prevents slipping whether wet or dry. The handle's 15-degree left and right fine adjustment allows for easier directional control. Long-distance linear pushes require significantly less force than bearingless casters, saving effort on continuous transport.

Easy Maintenance and Versatile Compatibility

The Portable Shopping Cart's casters feature M8 quick-release nuts and standard 608ZZ bearings, allowing replacement in less than ten minutes. The side hooks, straps, and non-slip foot covers are universal, making spare parts easy to source. The unit is 70% pre-assembled, allowing for quick deployment in about three minutes. The dimensions of a single unit are approximately 1,020 x 420 x 170 mm, with a gross weight of approximately 7.2 to 7.9 kg, making storage and shipping more efficient.

Portable Shopping Cart Applications

Weekend Shopping for Urban Families

The path from the basement garage to the elevator and front door includes ramps and gaps. The 60- to 65-liter basket accommodates both beverage crates and fruit and vegetable boxes, and the seven-inch rear wheels provide stability over speed bumps. The folded 16 cm thickness allows it to stand against a wall without occupying the entryway. The pedal brake prevents the cart from rolling away during loading and unloading on the slope, enhancing safety and a sense of pace at home.

Apartment Basement Garage

Narrow parking spaces and single lanes require flexible U-turns. The Portable Shopping Cart has a minimum turning radius of less than one meter, and its front universal and rear directional steering ensures responsive maneuvering at low speeds. A gap height of 15- to 20 mm allows for smooth maneuvering, and the TPE wheels provide reliable grip on slippery floors in rainy weather. After loading and unloading, it folds flat into the trunk wall with a single click.

Community Market Stalls

Early morning traffic is dense, so vehicle width should be controlled. The Portable Shopping Cart is approximately 480 mm wide, with no foot sweep, and its universal wheels provide flexible maneuverability. Elastic cords secure vegetable baskets and loose items, preventing them from rolling away. After folding, they can be stored alongside tent poles and folding tables in the van's side compartment, significantly improving stall setup and dismantling efficiency.

Laundromat Aisles

Wet areas and frequent use of detergents put the test on materials and coatings. Powder coating and galvanized fasteners are resistant to alcohol and detergents, and can carry 10 to 15 kg of clothing without losing their shape. The Portable Shopping Cart's front universal steering and rear directional steering allow for maneuverability in narrow aisles, and its quiet operation during nighttime operations does not disturb neighboring shops.

Campus Dormitory Moving

Transportation between buildings for new students checking in or graduating students moving out. The Portable Shopping Cart folds easily into elevators and around corners, and its 3mm mesh supports loose books without spilling. The seven-inch rear wheels provide stability on steps, and the EVA handles provide a comfortable grip over long distances, minimizing physical exertion and increasing moving efficiency.

E-commerce Forward Warehouse Picking

Densely packed shelves require a tight turning radius and stable straight lines. Double-bearing casters offer low rolling resistance and save effort in long aisles. The upper basket and lower tray allow for separate loading for refrigerated and ambient temperatures. Side strapping holes allow for pick lists and color coding, making batch verification clearer and reducing picking errors.

Exhibition setup and dismantling

The aisles are crowded and the floor has multiple cable ducts. The Portable Shopping Cart's seven-inch rear wheels provide ample clearance. Roll-up racks and sample boxes are placed upright and secured with elastic cords, allowing for quiet operation during nighttime setup. During dismantling, multiple carts can be pushed in parallel and folded down after loading, storing them under exhibition tables or on the side of the trunk, saving transportation and labor time.

Hospital back-of-house corridors

Emphasize low noise and easy disinfection. The Portable Shopping Cart's TPE wheels are quiet, and the metal surface is resistant to alcohol and chlorine-containing cleaners. Bedding and cleaning supplies are stored in layers, and the front foot lock prevents slipping. The quick-release casters facilitate maintenance by department, keeping the corridors tidy and reducing daily maintenance.
