  • Patent number: 6981709
    Abstract: The apparatus is a highly maneuverable, curb mounting double baby stroller. To improve maneuverability, the rear wheels are placed closer than usual to the front wheels, decreasing the wheelbase and providing greater leverage between the rear wheels and the rear handle. To compensate for the instability caused by the reduced wheelbase, a trailing support is provided behind the rear wheels. The trailing support may be a simple bar extension or have small wheels. The trailing support can be unlatched to permit it to pivot for lifting the front wheels to mount a curb.

  • Patent number: 5741021
    Abstract: A stroller has a break-away basket situated underneath the stroller seat or backrest. The basket has a frame pivotally mounted to the stroller frame, pivotal between a normally closed position to a lowered, open position. This is accomplished by pivoting one end of the basket frame downward to enlarge the basket access opening areas. When the basket is in the normal position, a pair of basket frame legs abut a corresponding pair of stops mounted on the stroller frame. The stops basically prevent the basket from pivoting downward. Forcing the basket frame legs past the stops lowers the basket. The basket may be restored to its normal position by forcing the basket frame legs back past the stops to their original position.
