  • Patent number: 5294027
    Abstract: A base is mounted to a frame and a pair of foldable basket sides are mounted to the base and to a rim above the base. A pair of basket ends are displaceably mounted the rim. The sides are folded and the ends are displaced to an upright position to cooperate with the base and the rim for forming a rigid basket. The sides are folded and the ends are displaced so that the rim is adjacent the frame, whereby the rim receives a flat surface so as to render the apparatus in a table top configuration. Legs are provided for clamping the apparatus to supporting bars on a wheelchair or like equipment, whereby the independence, productivity and comfort of a user in a variety of environments is maximized.
