  • Patent number: 8733784
    Abstract: A stroller capable of reducing dimensions upon folded, while maintaining a rigidity is proposed. A stroller includes: a core member; a front leg that is swingably connected to the core member and extends downward from the core member toward the front; and a pair of rear legs that are swingably connected to the core member and extend downward from the core member toward the rear. The pair of rear legs are arranged in a vehicle width direction, and are, in the used condition, separated away from each other, as a certain point on each rear leg separates away from the core member. An end of the front leg on the opposite side to the core member and ends of the rear legs on the opposite side to the core member are located on positions closer to each other in a folded condition than in a used condition.
