• a rear frame turnably connected to a rear end of said front frame and extending backward and forward;
• a lock mechanism selectively preventing said rear frame from being turned around said front frame;
• and
• a container hanging from said front frame and said rear frame, wherein
• said rear frame is turnable selectively to take a lower position in which a rear part of said container is opened, a horizontal position in which said rear frame extends almost horizontally, and an upper position in which a rear end of said rear frame approximates a backrest part of the baby carriage, and
• a said lock mechanism comprises horizontal position fixing means for fixing said rear frame in said horizontal position.

A foldable baby carriage comprising:

• a carriage body including a seat and a backrest that are pivotable relative to one another, a pair of front legs carrying front wheels at bottom ends thereof, a pair of rear legs carrying rear wheels at bottom ends thereof, and a pushrod extending generally upwardly and tilted rearwardly, wherein at least said front legs, said rear legs and said pushrod are pivotally interconnected to enable said carriage body to be selectively folded between an unfolded condition and a folded collapsed condition;
• and
• a storage basket arranged under said seat and said backrest, and including a front frame that is pivotally connected to said front legs and extends from said front legs rearwardly beyond said rear legs, a rear frame that is pivotally connected to said front frame at left and right pivot points located rearwardly from said rear legs so that said rear frame is pivotable about said pivot points upwardly and downwardly relative to said front frame selectively to an upper position in which said rear frame extends generally upwardly and rearwardly proximate to and along said pushrod, a lower position in which said rear frame tilts downwardly from said left and right pivot points below a plane of said front frame, and a middle position in which said rear frame extends rearwardly from said left and right pivot points at an angular position between said upper and lower positions, a lock mechanism that is coupled to said front and rear frames and that is configured and adapted to selectively lock said rear frame and prevent pivoting of said rear frame about said pivot points relative to said front frame at least at said middle position of said rear frame, and a flexible basket body connected to and hanging downwardly from said front frame and said rear frame with an opening into said basket body bounded at least partially by said rear frame.
