Patent ID: 8480191

Claim:
A storage apparatus comprising: a basket assembly having a pair of basket components defining a cavity, the first basket component including a sidewall, a base curved inwardly at a lower end of the sidewall, and a handle curved outwardly at an upper end of the sidewall, the first basket component formed from a single monolithic member, and being substantially uniformly thick, the second basket component being a substantial mirror image of the first basket component, with each of the base of the first basket component and the base of the second basket component meeting in a head to head orientation, so as to define a substantially upwardly opening u-shaped configuration, substantially open at either end, a shelf member extending across from an inside surface of the sidewall of the first basket component to an inside surface of the sidewall of the second basket component, spaced apart from and substantially parallel to the base of the first and second basket components, and spaced apart from the handle, the first and second basket components together with the shelf member defining a lower cavity having a substantially uniform lower cavity cross-sectional configuration; and a plurality of barrier members extending between the pair of basket components, the barrier members extending from the inside surface of the sidewall of the first basket component to the inside surface of the sidewall of the second basket component spaced apart from each other and spaced apart from an upper surface of the shelf member, so as to be positioned to extend between the shelf member and the handle of each of the sidewalls of the first and second sidewalls; a pair of leg members spaced apart from each other abutting a lower surface of the base of each of the first and second basket components, each of the pair of leg members coupled to each of the base of the first and second basket component, and each including a pair of wheel assemblies, spaced apart from each other at an opposing end of each of the pair of leg members; a drawer spanning across the substantially uniform lower cavity cross-sectional configuration, the drawer being slidably movable within the lower cavity, in a direction that is parallel to the sidewalls of the first and second basket components; and a bin assembly positionable within the drawer.
