WALKING AID VEHICLE WHICH IS ALSO USED FOR SHOPPING CART

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve a problem that a bracket with a front leg bar and a rear leg bar intersected therewith is not directly connected to a shopping basket loading frame for a shopping cart, a load is directly applied to its intersection part, and a locking mechanism for keeping the expanded state of the front and rear leg bars is provided in a narrow space at the outer side of the basket loading frame and at the inner side of the front leg bar, and the attaching/detaching operation of the lock is difficult. SOLUTION: A fixed bracket is fitted downwardly at the center symmetric position of a rectangular horizontal frame bar with a shopping basket loaded thereon. An upper end of a front leg bar and an upper end of a rear leg bar are intersected with a pivot provided in the fixed bracket and connected to each other in a foldable manner. A locking member is provided at a lower end of a handle bar located at the outer side of a movable bracket inserted in the rear leg bar. A locking pin projected in the transverse direction at the outer side of a stopping sleeve fitted to the rear leg bar and abutted on the movable bracket is detachably locked from a cutout formed at the locking member.
