Abstract: A folding pushchair has a chassis provided on each side with two chassis struts (6,7) carrying wheels (8). The struts are pivotally connected together, and swing out of a folded position, in which they lie side by side, into a position of use, in which they are secured by means of a fastening device (14). This device has to swing upwards to release the struts but a seat, and hence the weight of a child in the pushchair bears down on the device (14), thereby avoiding accidental folding in use.
Abstract: A locking device for locking the trailing wheels of a wheeled carriage, particularly of a perambulator, in the straight running position, the trailing wheels being mounted for pivotal movement about an upright axis extending perpendicular to their axis of rotation without intersecting it, wherein a support member carrying the axis of rotation of the trailing wheel is connected to a vertically extending sleeve mounted for rotation about its vertical axis in a concentrically surrounding cylindrical recess in the wheeled carriage, and wherein a resiliently deformable plug extends through the sleeve from above, the plug having a disk-shaped enlarged head portion engaging the rim of the upper end face of the recess and being in positive locking engagement with the sleeve so that the plug is non-rotatably connected therewith, the locking device including a substantially vertically extending engagement surface formed on the disk-shaped head portion for positive locking engagement with a locking member pivotally moun
Abstract: A child stroller has a back and a leg rest pivotally coupled to a seat so that the angles between the seat and leg rest or back can be changed. The seat can be slidably moved relative to the back to provide an adjustable length seating surface. The height of the back and length of the leg rest are both adjustable. The seat, back and leg rest are locked into position after the desired adjustments are made.
