Abstract
A foldable stroller includes a stroller frame having two side frame portions, each of which includes a push rod, a leg rod, a pivot joint, and an armrest assembly including an armrest and an armrest folding device. The pivot joint has an upper joint member connected to the push rod, and a lower joint member connected to the leg rod. The armrest folding device includes: a connecting unit connected fixedly to the armrest, connected pivotally to the lower joint member, and having a guide slot formed therethrough; and a guide pin connected to the the upper joint member and extending through the guide slot. When the push rod is rotated relative to the leg rod, the guide pin moves between too opposite ends of the guide slot to thereby rotate the connecting unit relative to the lower leg rod.
Claims11
A foldable stroller comprising a stroller frame having two side frame portions, each of which includes a push rod, a leg rod, a pivot joint, and an armrest assembly including an armrest and an armrest folding device, said pivot joint having an upper joint member connected to said push rod, and a lower joint member connected between said leg rod and said upper joint member, said armrest folding device including a connecting unit connected to said armrest, connected pivotally to said lower joint member, and having a guide slot formed therethrough;
- and a guide pin connected to said upper joint member and extending through said guide slot;
- wherein when said push rod is rotated relative to said leg rod, said guide pin moves along and within said guide slot to thereby rotate said connecting unit relative to said leg rod;
- wherein said connecting unit includes an armrest-connecting member and a joint-connecting member connected pivotally to said lower joint member and pivotable relative to said lower joint member about a pivot axis, said armrest-connecting member being sleeved fixedly on said joint-connecting member, said guide slot being formed in said joint-connecting member;
- wherein said armrest-connecting member is connected removably to said armrest;
- wherein said armrest-connecting member has a locking hole formed therethrough, said armrest including a locking member having a hook portion that engages removably said locking hole;
- and
- wherein said armrest-connecting member further has an engaging projection, said armrest further including an armrest body, said armrest body having a first sidewall and a second sidewall that are spaced apart from each other, said first sidewall having an inner surface formed with an engaging groove for engaging said engaging projection.
A foldable stroller comprising a stroller frame having two side frame portions, each of which includes a push rod, a leg rod, a pivot joint, and an armrest assembly including an armrest and an armrest folding device, said pivot joint having an upper joint member connected to said push rod, and a lower joint member connected between said leg rod and said upper joint member, said armrest folding device including a connecting unit connected pivotally to said lower joint member and connected to said armrest such that, when said push rod is rotated relative to said leg rod, an angle formed between any two of said armrest, said push rod, and leg rod can be changed;
- wherein said connecting unit has a guide slot formed therethrough, said armrest folding device further including a guide pin connected to said upper joint member and extending through said guide slot such that, when said push rod is rotated relative to said leg rod, said guide pin is moved between two opposite ends of said guide slot to rotate said connecting unit relative to said push rod and said leg rod;
- wherein said connecting unit includes an armrest-connecting member connected to said armrest, and a joint-connecting member connected pivotally to said lower joint member and rotatable relative to said lower joint member about a pivot axis, said armrest-connecting member being sleeved fixedly on said joint-connecting member, said guide slot being formed in said joint-connecting member;
- wherein said armrest-connecting member has a locking hole formed threrethrough, said armrest including a locking member having a hook portion that engages removably said locking hole;
- and
- wherein said armrest-connecting member further has an engaging projection, said armrest further including an armrest body, said armrest body having a first sidewall and a second sidewall that are spaced apart from each other, said first sidewall having an inner surface formed with an engaging groove for engaging said engaging projection.
