Collapsible flower basket

Abstract

The collapsible flower basket contains a first frame set, a second frame set, and a base frame. The first frame set contains two oppositely positioned first frames, each having a number of first connection elements. The second frame set contains two oppositely positioned second frames, each having a number of second connection elements. The first frames and the second frames are alternately positioned side-by-side to form a laterally enclosed structure where the base frame acts as a bottom. The base frame contains a number of third connection elements, each rotatably joined to one of the first connection elements, the second connection elements, and the hook elements. Additionally, some corresponding first and second connection elements are also rotatably joined together.

1 . A collapsible flower basket, comprising:
 a first frame set containing two oppositely positioned first frames, each having a plurality of first connection elements;   a second frame set containing two oppositely positioned second frames, each having a plurality of second connection elements, said second frames and said first frames alternately positioned side-by-side to form a laterally enclosed structure; and   a base frame joining to said first and second frames as a bottom side of said enclosed structure, said base frame having a plurality of third connection elements,   
       wherein each third connection element is rotatably joined to a corresponding first connection element or a second connection element; each of the remaining second connection elements is rotatably joined to a corresponding first connection element; and, as such, said first and second frame sets are rotatably joined to each other and to said base frame where said flower basket is thereby collapsible. 
     
     
         2 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 1 , wherein said first frame is formed as one of a hollowed-out structure, a meshed structure, a solid structure, and a combination of the above. 
     
     
         3 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 1 , wherein said second frame is formed as one of a hollowed-out structure, a meshed structure, a solid structure, and a combination of the above. 
     
     
         4 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 1 , wherein said first frames are symmetrical in terms of locations in space. 
     
     
         5 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 1 , wherein said first frames are symmetrical in terms of shapes. 
     
     
         6 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 1 , wherein said second frames are symmetrical in terms of locations in space. 
     
     
         7 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 1 , wherein said second frames are symmetrical in terms of shapes. 
     
     
         8 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 1 , wherein said third connection element is structurally complement to said corresponding first connection element. 
     
     
         9 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 1 , wherein said third connection element is structurally complement to said corresponding second connection element. 
     
     
         10 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 1 , wherein at least one of said second frames has at least a hook element for joining a corresponding third connection element of said base frame. 
     
     
         11 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 10 , wherein at least a portion of said hook element is flexible. 
     
     
         12 . The collapsible flower basket according to  claim 10 , wherein said hook element is structurally complement to said corresponding third connection element.
