Abstract
A buggy for transporting children has a frame and wheels that are rotably mounted relative to the frame to support the frame above a ground surface. A primary seat is operatively supported by the frame for supporting a first child. A secondary seat is operatively supported by the frame for supporting a second child. The buggy is convertible between an in use configuration for transporting children and a folded storage configuration, whether or not the secondary seat is attached. The secondary seat may be detachable. The secondary seat may be positioned at least partly behind and at least partly below the primary seat.
Claims20
A buggy for transporting children, comprising:
- a frame comprising a primary seat frame for supporting a primary seat;
- a plurality of wheels that are rotatably mounted relative to the frame to support the frame above a ground surface and enable movement of the buggy along the ground surface;
- a forward-facing primary seat operatively supported by the frame for supporting a first child;
- and
- a forward-facing secondary seat operatively supported by the frame for supporting a second child, the secondary seat being positioned at least partially behind and at least partially below the primary seat, wherein:
- the buggy is convertible between an in use configuration for transporting children and a folded storage configuration without removing the secondary seat, and the secondary seat is positioned at least partially within the frame when the buggy is in the folded storage configuration;
- the buggy is configured such that the secondary seat is selectively movable from an in use position to a storage position without folding the remainder of the buggy;
- and
- following movement of the secondary seat to the storage position, the remainder of the buggy is selectively foldable around the secondary seat.
A buggy for transporting children, comprising:
- a frame comprising a primary seat frame for supporting a primary seat;
- a plurality of wheels that are rotatably mounted relative to the frame to support the frame above a ground surface and enable movement of the buggy along the ground surface;
- a forward-facing primary seat having a seat portion and a back portion, the primary seat being operatively supported by the frame for supporting a first child;
- and
- a forward-facing secondary seat having a seat portion and a back portion, the secondary seat being operatively supported by the frame for supporting a second child, and the seat portion of the secondary seat being positioned generally behind and generally lower than the seat portion of the primary seat, wherein:
- the buggy is convertible between an in use configuration for transporting children and a folded storage configuration without removing the secondary seat;
- the buggy is configured such that the secondary seat is selectively movable from an in use position to a storage position without folding the remainder of the buggy;
- and
- following the movement of the secondary seat to the storage position, the remainder of the buggy can then be folded around the secondary seat.
A buggy for transporting children, comprising:
- a frame comprising a primary seat frame for supporting a primary seat, the primary seat frame comprising an intermediately positioned coupling that divides the primary seat frame into an intermediate section and a forward lower section;
- at least one forward wheel and at least one rear wheel that are rotatably mounted to the frame to support the frame above a ground surface and enable movement of the buggy along the ground surface, wherein at least one forward strut connects the at least one rear wheel to the forward lower section;
- a forward-facing primary seat operatively supported by the primary seat frame for supporting a first child;
- and
- a forward-facing secondary seat operatively supported by the frame for supporting a second child, the secondary seat being positioned at least partially behind and at least partially below the primary seat, wherein:
- the buggy is convertible between an in use configuration for transporting children and a folded storage configuration without removing the secondary seat, and the at least one forward strut articulates about the forward lower section when converting the buggy between the in use configuration and the folded storage configuration;
- and
- at least one rearward strut extends from the intermediate section, the at least one rearward strut extending downwardly and rearwardly from the intermediate section when the buggy is in the in use configuration.
