A hamper bag frame may also be included, which can be selectively engaged with and disengaged from the horizontal support barvia the anchor hook to enable easy transportation of the attached hamper bag. The anchor hook may be connected to the horizontal support bar via the lower section and may receive and support the hamper bag frame with the upper section. When a portion of the hamper bag frame is placed below the upper section of the anchor hook and adjacent portions of the hamper bag frame are positioned over the horizontal support bar, the hamper bag frame is held in a secure position such that the attached hamper bag is able to be filled. The hamper bag and frame can then be easily removed from the horizontal support bar to facilitate easy transportation of the hamper contents to another location by releasing the hamper bag frame from the upper section of the anchor hook.
Abstract:
A utility truck with arched reinforcing rods incorporated into the base of a plastic truck during molding. The reinforcing rods are held in place in a mold at a predetermined distance above the mold's inner surface by spacers attached to the ends of the rods. Plastic is molded around the rods, with more plastic provided below the rods than above them, so that, when the plastic truck is removed from the mold and allowed to cool, the plastic will contract to a greater extent than the metal rods, causing the base and the reinforcing rods to bow upward, creating a convex arch in the truck's base. The arch provides an inherently strong, bridge-type structure that substantially strengthens the load-bearing capability of the truck, yet requires less reinforcing material than conventional supplemental chassis structures. In another embodiment, caster base mounts are also molded into the bottom of the truck, providing a utility truck with a unitary chassis structure.
