  • Patent number: 7658389
    Abstract: An apparatus for transporting a child safety seat includes a wheeled assembly that may be clamped to the child safety seat. The wheeled assembly includes a plate member having a longitudinal axis on either side of which are formed one or more through holes. Clamping can be achieved by the use of threaded fasteners which pass through the through holes and are secured to a clamping mechanism that helps frictionally secure the plate member to the child safety seat. Suitable clamping mechanisms for this purpose may include a strap that passes through a passageway formed in the rear of the child safety seat, a clamping bracket having laterally extending arms that abut clampingly abut openings formed in the back of the child safety seat, and an structural elbow member integrally connected to the child safety seat against which a clamping force may be applied. The apparatus with attached child safety seat may be wheeled on the ground by a person using one hand.

  • Patent number: 7398988
    Abstract: A three-wheeled stroller has a kickstand movable between a retracted position and a deployed position. When deployed, the kickstand has a pair of downwardly extending legs on either side of the front wheel to help prevent a tipping condition when an occupant enters or exits the stroller. Either a foot-operated actuator or a hand-operated actuator may be used to remotely operate the kickstand. In the case of a foot-operated actuator, stepping on a foot-operated brake bar can both operate the kickstand and immobilize one or more rear wheels to brake the stroller.
