I, ROBERT PHILLIPS, of Hadleigh House, Bridge Road, Red Hill, in the County of
Surrey, Gentleman, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained in
and by the following statement :-
The object of this invention is to construct a suitable basket or holder for
attachment to perambulators or to tricycles or the like and it consists in the
construction of an article for this purpose as hereinafter described and illustrated in
the accompanying drawing which shows a front elevation of the improved article with
lid opon.
The improved article comprises the main receptacle A of which the back is adapted
to shape to lie against the end of a perambulator or suitable frame or luggage carrier
of a tricycle, being preferably flat and receding backwards at the bottom. At or near
the upper edge of the back of the receptacle are suitable hooks or straps or other
holdfasts B by which the article is suspended on the perambulator or tricycle. As a
convenient shape the front of the main receptacle may be bowed or curved so that
the shape of the receptacle is substantially semicylindrical. But the front and sides
may be of any other suitable shape. The lid Ŏ is hinged in the known manner to
one side substantially as shown and may be secured on the other side by any suitable
fastening. At one corner of-the-article near to the back is fastened or made a long
tubular holder D closed below and open above and intended to receive an umbrella or
walking stick. The upper edge of the tubular holder D may be level with the lid of
the main receptacle A.
I do not confine myself to any particular material but may use sheet metal, or
wicker work, or wire work covered or not, or canvas, or leather on metal framing.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said invention
and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I claim is
An improved basket or holder for attachment to perambulators, tricycles and the
like, comprising in combination a part A with back shaped to set against the
perambulator or tricycle frame or holder, holdfasts thereon and lid opening to avoid
the frame, and a tubular part D connected to the part A, the whole substantially
as illustrated and described.
