  • Patent number: 7434827
    Abstract: A single hand folding structure for an umbrella folding stroller includes a folding set to connect between a pair of side frames of the stroller. The folding set is provided with a driving lever, and a driver is arranged at one of the side frames. A connecting element connects between the driver and the driving element. When a user folds the stroller, the user can pull the driver to move the driving lever via the connecting element and force the folding set to fold so the two sides of the frame are moved inward closely to each other. An elastic element of the frame is utilized to assist the folding of the frame such that the user can fold the frame of the stroller easily and effortlessly. Thus, the user can operate with a single hand, without using a foot, to release the frame to fold.

It exhibits excellent properties in terms of workability, toughness, high-temperature strength, corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance. These alloys are designed to incorporate five to seven principal elements, which include Co, Cr, Fe, and Ni, plus one, or a combination of Al, Mo, and Ti. The Co and Ni elements have contents of 20 to 35 atomic percent, and those of Cr and Fe are between 12.5 and 20 atomic percent. The sum of the Co, Ni, Cr, and Fe is not less than 65 atomic percent, and the sum of Al, Mo, and Ti contents is between 5 and 25 atomic percent. The properties of the alloys can be further modified by the addition of minor elements, such as Ag, B, C, Cu, Mn, Nb, Ta, Si, V, W, Y, and Zr, whose sum does not exceed 10 atomic percent.
