Abstract: A lightweight bicycle basket is made from supporting pipes and a frame. Each of the supporting pipes is made of a material that is lightweight and sufficiently strong for its intended purpose and is formed into a Ushaped hollow pipe. The supporting pipes are arranged at intervals to form a longitudinal layer and a transverse layer. The longitudinal layer is superposed on the transverse layer to form a mesh structure. In this way, the basket has a supporting surface on its bottom, retaining surfaces on its sides, and an accommodating space in its interior. The tips of the supporting pipes are connected by the frame to form a firm structure. The frame is also made of a material with a light weight and sufficient strength and is formed into a loop of hollow pipe.

Abstract: A bicycle basket includes at least two support tubes, an upper enclosing frame, a plurality of intermediate frames and a lower enclosing frame, all of which are welded together, and a bottom panel locked onto the two support tubes. The at least two support tubes are parallel hollow tubes. Each support tube is U-shaped and comprises a bottom section at a middle portion, at least two bent sections extending from the bottom section, and two vertical sections. The upper enclosing frame is welded onto the at least two support tubes at an outer side of the end of the vertical section. The plurality of intermediate frames are regularly welded on an outer edge of the vertical section to form a containment space with the upper enclosing frame, the lower enclosing frame being welded on an outer edge of the bent section of the at least two support tubes.
