A shopping cart suitable for storage and conveyance of a conventional capacity of food or other products while also transporting and entertaining at least one child. The shopping cart has at least one storage basket, as well as a body integrally mounted below and forward of the basket. The body simulates a vehicle to provide a relatively easier shopping experience for the guardian and a more enjoyable shopping experience for the child. Additional features include the use of a swing arm to improve passenger safety, and bumpers to protect the cart and body from collision and abrasion.

Shopping cart having a child supporting apparatus

A corner guard for protecting floor fixtures from the impact of collisions with shopping carts, floor scrubbers, and the like provides for a hollow molded polyethylene body having a single lightweight construction that is anchored to the floor by a leg assembly that is attached to the molded body.

Protective corner guard

Disclosed are improved components for a base rail system for the protection of fixtures such as display shelves, booths, and grocery store refrigeration cabinets. A protruding rotatable corner member rotatably engages objects that collide with the corner, reducing abrasion of the corner and of the object. In addition, the rotatable corner member redirects objects so as to reduce collision forces on the fixture protection system. Socket adapters closely receive a segmented, spheroidal rotatable member and rotatably couple the member to base rail protection members. A base rail protection member includes a single piece arcuate resilient sheath disposed over an arcuate channel member so as to form a cushioning gap therebetween for absorbing and dispersing collision forces. The arcuate sheath includes retaining grooves disposed along the length thereof for engaging tabs disposed along the arcuate channel member. The base rail members are pivotally coupled for adapting to various fixture angles, and for allowing reversal of the base rail protection system. Support means supports the base rail system, including the rotatable corner members and base rail protection members, at a selected height above a floor.
