Publication number: 20170021850Abstract: A seat adapter removably mounts a child seat to a wagon having two opposing walls and an interposed connecting wall, and includes two latch components that mount to the wagon's opposing walls. In some embodiments, the seat adapter includes a cross-member extending between the latch components so that the cross-member provides structural integrity to the wagon if the connecting wall is displaced from its upright use position. In some embodiments, the seat adapter and the child seat can be mounted to the wagon for use with the connecting wall in its upright use position, and in some embodiments the seat adapter and the child seat can be mounted to the wagon for use whether the connecting wall is in its upright use position or its displaced position, with no mechanical interference between any part of the wagon and any part of the adapter or the child seat mounted to it.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2016Publication date: January 26, 2017Applicant: DRAGONFLY GEAR, LLCInventors: Andrew BOWMAN, Brady SCHROEDER

Patent number: 9469324Abstract: A wagon includes a base and a peripheral wall that form a container for cargo. The peripheral wall includes at least one displaceable wall that for example pivots between an unfolded/upright position and a folded/displaced position. A latch system is typically provided for releasably securing the pivot wall to the two adjacent walls. The latch system includes a latch component on each respective adjacent wall that, when the pivot wall is folded down out of the way, are operable to releasably engage with a cooperating latch component of a car seat, a stroller seat, or an adapter for a car seat and/or a stroller seat. Such a seat adapter in turn typically includes latch components for releasably securing a car seat and/or a stroller seat. In this way, the pivot wall can be displaced from its upright use position and in its place can be provided seating for a child.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2015Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: DRAGONFLY GEAR, LLCInventors: Andrew Bowman, Brady Schroeder

Publication number: 20160167687Abstract: A collapsible wagon includes a base and one or more upstanding walls forming a container for cargo. At least one of the upstanding walls is pivotally mounted to the base for pivoting between an unfolded position for use and a folded position for storage and transport. In some embodiments, the wagon includes a pinchless internal mechanical stop that eliminates pinch points where a user's fingers can be pinched during folding and unfolding of the walls. In some embodiments, the wagon includes a gang-operated latch system for releasably securing one of the walls to another one of the walls that is quick, easy, and reliable to use for folding and unfolding. And in some embodiments, the wagon includes a latch system that eliminates slack or play when in the unfolded use position for structural integrity.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2016Publication date: June 16, 2016Applicant: DRAGONFLY GEAR, LLCInventors: Patrick NOLAN, Mike DOTSEY, Noah DINGLER, Brady SCHROEDER
