A transportation system that breaks down to fit in a compact space, said system comprising:
- a vehicle having a storage bin;
- and
- a stroller being structured to be positioned between a transporting position and a collapsed position, said stroller being positionable within said storage bin when said stroller is positioned in said collapsed position, said stroller being configured to transport a child when said stroller is positioned in said transporting position.
A transportation system that breaks down to fit in a compact space, said system comprising:
- a vehicle having a storage bin;
- and
- a stroller being structured to be positioned between a transporting position and a collapsed position, said stroller being positionable within said storage bin when said stroller is positioned in said collapsed position, said stroller being configured to transport a child when said stroller is positioned in said transporting position, said stroller comprising:
- a frame including:
- a pair of arms, each of said arms having a first portion slidably coupled to a second portion such that each of said arms has a telescopically adjustable length, said first portion of each of said arms having a bottom end, and
- a pair of legs, each of said legs having a pair of end sections being coupled to a central section, each of said end sections having a lower end, said end sections of each of an associated one of said legs being spaced apart from each other such that each of said legs has a U-shape, said pair of end sections of each of said legs including a back one of said end sections, said back end section of each of said legs being hingedly coupled to said central section of on associated one of said legs, said back end section of each of said legs being substantially coextensive with said central section of said associated leg when said stroller is positioned in said collapsed position, said back end section of each of said legs extending downwardly from said central section of said associated leg when said stroller is positioned in said transporting position,
- said bottom end of each of said first portions being hingedly coupled to an associated one of said legs, each of said arms being positioned at an intersection of said back end section and said central section of said associated leg, each of said arms having a distal end with respect to said associated leg, each of said arms being coextensive with said central section of said associated leg when said stroller is positioned in said collapsed position, each of said arms extending upwardly from said associated leg when said stroller is positioned in said transporting position,
- a plurality of wheels, each of said wheels being rotatably coupled to an associated one of said lower ends, each of said wheels being configured to be positioned to abut a support surface when said stroller is positioned in said transporting position such that said stroller may be rolled along the support surface,
- a membrane having a pair of lateral edges, said membrane being removably attached to said frame, said membrane extending between said pair of arms and said central section of each of said legs when said membrane is attached to said frame wherein said membrane is configured to support the child when said stroller is positioned in said transporting position, said membrane being removed from said frame when said stroller is positioned in said collapsed position,
- a plurality of first fasteners, said first fasteners being positioned along said first portion of each of said arms and said central section of each of said legs, and
- a plurality of second fasteners, each of said second fasteners being attached to said membrane, said second fasteners being distributed along an associated one of said lateral edges, each of said second fasteners engaging an associated one of said first fasteners when said membrane is removably attached to said frame wherein said first fasteners and said second fasteners retain said membrane on said frame.
