[0111] The baby stroller frame 20 also includes a frame rotation joint 26, and the front bracket 22, the rear bracket 23 and the push rod 21 are connected by the frame rotation joint 26 and can be rotated and folded. The folding operation of the baby stroller frame 20 and the seat frame assembly 10 is two completely independent operation modes.
[0112] When the entire baby stroller needs to be folded, the seat frame assembly 10 is folded first, and then the baby stroller frame 20 is folded.
[0113] Furthermore, if Figure 1-2 As shown, the front bracket 22 is rotatably connected to the seat portion 12, the lower rotating joint 13 and the push rod 21 are rotatably connected via a first connecting rod 25, the armrest rod 15 is rotatably connected to the seat portion 12, the armrest rod 15 extends a second connecting rod 28, and the second connecting rod 28 is rotatably connected to the first connecting rod 25 via a third connecting rod 29.
[0114] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, a first connecting column 123 is provided on the seat portion 12 , and the front bracket 22 is rotatably connected to the seat plate 121 via the first connecting column 123 .
[0115] The seat frame assembly 10 is positioned at three points by the first connecting column 123 , the connecting point between the armrest bar 15 and the seat portion 12 , and the connecting point between the third connecting rod 29 and the first connecting rod 25 and the lower rotating joint 13 .
[0116] By implementing this embodiment, the seat frame assembly 10 can be positioned, and the seat frame assembly 10 and the baby stroller frame 20 can be folded and stored independently, which increases the flexibility of adjustment and meets the different needs of users.
[0117] Seat frame components:
[0118] like Figure 3-14 The above is a schematic diagram of the structure of the seat frame assembly in the first embodiment of the present invention.
[0119] A seat frame assembly 10 for a baby stroller includes a first back portion 11, a second back portion 18, a seat portion 12, a switch unit 14, an upper rotation joint 19 connected between the first back portion 11 and the second back portion 18, and a lower rotation joint 13 connected between the second back portion 18 and the seat portion 12. The switch unit 14 is installed on a cross beam 16 between the first back portion 11 and the second back portion 18, and the cross beam 16 is connected to the upper rotation joint 19. The switch unit 14 can unlock the upper rotation joint 19 and the lower rotation joint 13.
[0120] When folding, after operating the switch unit 14, the switch unit 14 drives the upper rotating joint 19 and the lower rotating joint 13 to unlock, so that the first back portion 11 can be rotated and folded relative to the second back portion 18, and the second back portion 18 can be rotated and folded relative to the seat portion 12;
[0121] When unfolding, the first back portion 11 is rotated. After the first back portion 11 is rotated and unfolded relative to the second back portion 18, the upper rotating joint 19 locks the first back portion 11. After the second back portion 18 is rotated and unfolded relative to the seat portion 12, the lower rotating joint 13 locks the second back portion 18.
[0122] When folding is required, the switch unit 14 is operated, and the switch unit 14 drives the upper rotating joint 19 and the lower rotating joint 13 to unlock;
[0123] Then, the first back portion 11 is rotated toward the direction approaching the second back portion 18 until the first back portion 11 is rotated to a position almost parallel to the second back portion 18;
[0124] Then, the first back portion 11 and the second back portion 18 are rotated together in a direction close to the seat portion 12 , until the first back portion 11 and the second back portion 18 are rotated to a level position almost equal to the seat portion 12 .
[0125] When the seat frame assembly 10 needs to be unfolded again, the first back portion 11 and the second back portion 18 are first rotated in a direction away from the seat portion 12 until they are adjusted to a suitable unfolding angle, and the lower rotation joint 13 is locked again; then the first back portion 11 is flipped upward relative to the second back portion 18 until the first back portion 11 and the second back portion 18 are located on the same straight line, and the upper rotation joint 19 is locked again.
[0126] In this embodiment, after the upper rotating joint 19 and the lower rotating joint 13 are unlocked, the first back portion 11 and the second back portion 18 are rotated and folded relative to the seat portion 12, thereby realizing the independent folding and folding operation of the seat frame assembly. It can be folded or unfolded separately from the stroller frame, which is easy to adjust and suitable for different usage conditions and needs.
[0127] Among them, Figure 3As shown, the first back portion 11 comprises a hollow U-shaped rod, and both ends of the U-shaped rod are connected to two upper rotation joints 19 .
[0128] Specifically, the first back portion 11 is a complete U-shaped rod. When unfolded, the U-shaped rod is installed upside down, and the two ends are respectively connected to the upper rotating joints 19.
[0129] When the baby stroller is actually used, the U-shaped rod cover is provided with a backrest cloth, or a backrest board, for supporting the back of the baby.
[0130] Optionally, the first back portion 11 may also be other structures, for example, a backrest board is used to replace the U-shaped rod, and the backrest board can support the baby's head.
[0131] Furthermore, if Figure 3 As shown, the second back 18 is two straight rods, respectively connected to the two ends of the U-shaped first back 11. The first back 11 and the second back 18 are connected through an upper rotating joint 19, and the two upper rotating joints 19 are connected through a crossbeam 16, and the switch unit 14 is installed on the crossbeam 16.
[0132] Furthermore, if Figure 4-6 As shown, the switch unit 14 includes a flip member 141, a return spring 142 and a steel wire 143. The flip member 141 is rotatably connected to the cross beam 16. The return spring 142 is installed between the flip member 141 and the cross beam 16. One end of the steel wire 143 is connected to the flip member 141, and the other end is connected to the upper rotating joint 19 and the lower rotating joint 13.
[0133] When the flip member 141 is rotated, the flip member 141 pulls the steel wire 143, and the steel wire 143 drives the upper rotating joint 19 and the lower rotating joint 13 to unlock.
[0134] Specifically, Figure 5-6 As shown, the flip member 141 includes a first wire hole 1411 and a first hinge portion 1412. The first wire hole 1411 is fixedly connected to one end of the wire 143, and the first hinge portion 1412 is rotatably connected to the second hinge portion 161 on the beam 16. One end of the return spring 142 is connected to the flip member 141, and the other end is connected to the beam 16.
[0135] When the flip member 141 is flipped toward the rear of the seat frame assembly 10, the flip member 141 rotates around the first hinge portion 1412 and pulls the steel wire 143, which drives the upper rotating joint 19 and the lower rotating joint 13 to unlock. When the flip member 141 is flipped, the return spring 142 is stretched. When the flip member 141 is released, the return spring 142 drives the flip member 141 to return to the initial position.
[0136] Furthermore, if Figure 6As shown, the steel wire 143 includes a first steel wire 143 a and a second steel wire 143 b . The first steel wire 143 a is connected to the upper rotating joint 19 , and the second steel wire 143 b is connected to the lower rotating joint 13 .
[0137] The flip member 141 has two first wire holes 1411, each connected to a main wire 143. The main wire 143 is divided into two strands, namely a first wire 143a and a second wire 143b.

[0158] When locked, the locking pin 134 is inserted into the locking groove 135;
[0159] When unlocking, the switch unit 14 drives the locking pin 134 to escape from the locking groove 135 .
[0160] Specifically, Figure 3 and Fig. 9 As shown, the first shell 131 and the second shell 132 are both disc-shaped. The first shell 131 and the second shell 132 are buckled together to form a mounting cavity, and the locking pin 134 and the locking groove 135 are both installed in the mounting cavity.
[0161] There are two lower rotating joints 13, which are respectively located on the left and right sides of the second back portion 18 and the seat portion 12. The two first shells 131 are connected by a cross bar 139, so that the cross bar 139, the two first shells 131, the second back portion 18, and the switch unit 14 become a whole and rotate together.
[0162] The two second shells 132 are connected to the seat portion 12 as a whole. During actual processing, the second shells 132 and the seat plate 121 of the seat portion 12 can be integrally injection molded.
[0163] The seat plate 121 is formed with a plurality of hollows, and the seat plate 121 can be covered with a cushion cloth to increase comfort. The hollow parts can increase the air permeability of the seat plate 121, reduce weight, and reduce costs. At the same time, sufficient support stability is also provided.
[0164] like Fig.10 As shown, there are four locking grooves 135, which are distributed at equal radius around the center of the second shell 132. The multiple locking grooves 135 facilitate the adjustment of the angle between the second back portion 18 and the seat portion 12, and the locking pin 134 can be inserted into any locking groove 135 to meet the different needs of users.

[0168] The sliding member 137 also includes a pin hole 1372 , into which the locking pin 134 is inserted and fixedly connected. When the sliding member 137 slides upward, the locking pin 134 is driven to slide upward together, and the locking pin 134 is disengaged from the locking groove 135 , thereby unlocking the lower rotating joint 13 .
[0169] The claw plate 138 is provided with four locking grooves 1381 whose shapes completely match the locking grooves 135 , and the claw plate 138 is connected to the second housing 132 by screws.
[0170] like Fig.11As shown, the sliding member 137 further includes a limiting block 1373 , and a limiting groove 1361 is provided on the sliding groove shell 136 . When the sliding member 137 slides upward, the limiting groove 1361 plays a limiting role.
[0171] The sliding member 137 is also connected to a reset member, and when the user releases the flip member 141, the reset member causes the sliding member 137 to slide downward along the sliding slot shell 136, keeping the locking pin 134 engaged in the slot 1381 and the locking slot 135. The reset member may be a reset spring.
[0172] In the modified example, the sliding member 137, the sliding groove shell 136, the locking pin 134 are connected to the first shell 131 as a whole, and the claw plate 138 and the locking groove 135 are connected to the second shell 132 as a whole. The two parts are locked by the cooperation of the locking pin 134, the locking groove 135 and the card slot 1381. When the locking pin 134 is disengaged from the locking groove 135 and the card slot 1381, the second back part 18 is unlocked and can be rotated relative to the seat part 12, so that the angle of the second back part 18 can be adjusted or it can be completely folded.
[0173] Furthermore, if Fig.12 As shown, the seat portion 12 includes a seat plate 121 and an extension rod 122. The seat plate 121 is provided with an embedding groove 1211, and the corresponding extension rod 122 is provided with an embedding block (not shown). The embedding block is embedded in the embedding groove 1211 to achieve the connection between the extension rod 122 and the seat plate 121.
[0174] Optionally, the extension rod 122 can adjust its angle relative to the seat plate 121; when the baby is sitting, the extension rod 122 flips downward so that the baby's calves can naturally bend downward; when the baby is lying, the extension rod 122 flips upward to maintain the same plane as the seat plate 121, so as to support the baby's legs and feet.
[0175] Furthermore, if Figure 13-14 As shown, the upper rotating joint 19 includes a first rotating member 191, a second rotating member 192 and a cam 193, the first rotating member 191 is connected to the first back 11, the second rotating member 192 is connected to the second back 18, and the first rotating member 191 and the second rotating member 192 are rotatably connected;
[0176] When the upper rotating joint 19 is locked, the cam 193 is located between the first rotating member 191 and the second rotating member 192 along the axial direction;
[0177] The switch unit 14 can drive the cam 193 to disengage from the first rotating member 191 or the second rotating member 192 along the axial direction, and the upper rotating joint 19 is unlocked.
[0178] Specifically, Fig.13As shown, the cam 193 includes a fourth steel wire hole 1931, and the fourth steel wire hole 1931 is connected to the first steel wire 143a. The second rotating member 192 is provided with a cam groove 1921, and the cam 193 is at least partially embedded in the cam groove 1921. The second rotating member 192 also includes a sliding shaft 1922, and the cam 193 is sleeved on the sliding shaft 1922 and can move along the axis of the sliding shaft 1922. The first rotating member 191 is rotatably connected to the sliding shaft 1922, and the cam 193 can be at least partially embedded in the first rotating member 191.
[0179] In the locked state, a portion of the cam 193 is embedded in the cam groove 1921 of the second rotating member 192, and another portion is embedded in the first rotating member 191, thereby locking the first rotating member 191 and the second rotating member 192. At this time, the first back portion 11 and the second back portion 18 are locked.
[0180] When the flip member 141 is turned over, the first steel wire 143a pulls the cam 193, so that the cam 193 completely enters the cam groove 1921 and disengages from the first rotating member 191. The first rotating member 191 can rotate relative to the second rotating member 192, so that the first back portion 11 rotates relative to the second back portion 18.
[0181] A reset member may be installed between the cam 193 and the cam groove 1921, and the reset member is compressed when the cam 193 is pulled toward the cam groove 1921. When the first steel wire 143a does not apply force to the cam 193, the cam 193 moves away from the second rotating member 192 again under the action of the reset member, and is partially inserted into the first rotating member 191, thereby achieving locking between the first rotating member 191 and the second rotating member 192.
[0182] Among them, Figure 3 As shown, a ceiling unit 17 is also installed on the seat portion 11 , and the ceiling unit 17 includes a ceiling rod 171 , a ceiling rotating member 172 and a ceiling cloth 173 .

[0192] like Figure 16-17 As shown, the unlocking trigger mechanism 27 includes a button 271. The unlocking trigger mechanism 27 is used to unlock itself after pressing the button 271, and to drive the first rotating joint 25 to unlock by rotating.
[0193] Specifically, the unlocking trigger mechanism 27 is installed at the top center of the upper push rod 21, and the button 271 faces downward, so that the user can press the button 271 when holding the unlocking trigger mechanism 27 with four fingers.
[0194] Furthermore, the unlocking trigger mechanism 27 further includes an upper semicircular shell 272, a telescopic member 273, a spring (not shown) and a lower semicircular shell 274. The upper semicircular shell 272 and the lower semicircular shell 274 are spliced into a cylindrical tube. A portion of the button 271 extends from the lower semicircular shell 272. The button 271 is installed between the lower semicircular shell 274 and the spring. The telescopic member 273 is connected to the upper semicircular shell 272. Both ends of the telescopic member 273 are respectively connected to at least one upper steel wire (not shown).
[0195] After the button 271 is pressed, the unlocking trigger mechanism 27 is unlocked, and the button 271, the upper semicircular shell 272 and the lower semicircular shell 274 rotate to compress the telescopic member 273, and the telescopic member 273 pulls the upper steel wire to drive the first rotating joint 25 to unlock.
[0196] Specifically, Fig.17 As shown, the button 271 is in the shape of an elongated strip, and the convex strip 2713 of the button 271 is in the shape of an elongated oval, which is exposed outside the unlocking trigger mechanism 27 and has enough area for four fingers to act on the convex strip 2713 at the same time.
[0197] A portion of the button 271 is installed inside the small semicircular shell 274, and the convex strip 2713 protrudes downward from the button hole 2741 of the lower semicircular shell 274. Locking blocks 2711 extend outward from both ends of the button 271, and lower inserts 2743 extend from the inner sides of both ends of the lower semicircular shell 274. The lower inserts 2743 are provided with guide grooves 2742, and the locking blocks 2711 are inserted into the guide grooves 2742. When the button 271 is pressed, it will not fall out of the guide grooves 2742, and the button 271 and the lower semicircular shell 274 will rotate together.
[0198] like Fig.16 As shown, a groove is formed on the upper surface of the convex strip 2713 of the button 271, and two spring mounting posts 2712 are installed in the groove. The spring mounting posts 2712 are used to sleeve springs (not shown).
[0199] like Fig.17 As shown, two circular spring grooves 2761 are provided on the surface of the spring mounting block 276 facing the button 271, the top end of the spring is inserted into the spring groove 2761, and the spring mounting block 276 abuts against the inner tube 211 of the push rod 21. When the button 271 is pressed, the button 271 pushes the spring upward; when the button 271 is released, the button 271 returns to its original position under the action of the spring, and the convex strip 2713 protrudes downward from the button hole 2741.
[0200] Furthermore, if Fig.16 As shown, the upper push rod 21 includes an inner tube 211 and two outer tubes 212, and the cylindrical tube is sleeved outside the inner tube 211;
[0201] The unlocking trigger mechanism 27 also includes two sleeves 275, which are fixedly connected to the two outer tubes 212 respectively. The two ends of the cylindrical tube are respectively inserted into the two sleeves 275 and can rotate. A locking groove 2751 is provided on the sleeve 275, and locking blocks 2711 extend from both ends of the button 271. The locking block 2711 is inserted into the locking groove 2751. When the button 271 is pressed, the locking block 2711 is disengaged from the locking groove 2751, and the cylindrical tube can rotate relative to the sleeve 275.
[0202] The lower insert piece 2743 of the lower semicircular shell 274 is inserted into the sleeve 275 , and the main body of the lower semicircular shell 274 is butted against the edge of the sleeve 275 .
[0203] Upper insert pieces 2722 extend outward from both ends of the upper semicircular shell 275 . The upper insert pieces 2722 are also inserted into the sleeve 275 . The main body of the upper semicircular shell 275 is butted against the edge of the sleeve 275 .
[0204] When the button 271 is pressed, the locking block 2711 first escapes from the locking groove 2751, the unlocking trigger mechanism 27 is unlocked, and then the locking block 2711 enters the guide groove 2742. The button 271, the upper semicircular shell 272 and the lower semicircular shell 274 can rotate relative to the sleeve 275 and the upper push rod 21, and the telescopic member 273 does not rotate at this time.
[0205] In order to facilitate user operation, the upper semicircular shell 272 and the lower semicircular shell 274 can be rotated toward the front of the baby stroller to be spliced into a cylindrical tube.
[0206] Furthermore, if Figure 16-17 As shown, the telescopic member 273 includes a first connecting member 2731, a second connecting member 2732, a first telescopic rod 2733 and a second telescopic rod 2734. The first connecting member 2731 is connected to one end of the first telescopic rod 2733, the second connecting member 2732 is connected to one end of the second telescopic rod 2734, the other end of the first telescopic rod 2733 is connected to the other end of the second telescopic rod 2734, the first connecting member 2731 and the second connecting member 2732 are respectively connected to an upper steel wire, and the first connecting member 2731 and the second connecting member 2732 are both provided with a slope boss 2735;
[0207] Two slope grooves 2721 are provided in the upper semicircular shell 272, and the slope bosses 2735 are embedded in the slope grooves 2721. When the upper semicircular shell 272 rotates, the slope grooves 2721 push the two slope bosses 2735 to drive the first telescopic rod 2733 and the second telescopic rod 2734 to move closer to each other and retract.
[0208] The first telescopic rod 2733 is inserted into the second telescopic rod 2734 , and a spring is installed in the second telescopic rod 2734 .
[0209] The ramp boss 2735 is roughly triangular in shape and includes two inclined surfaces. The ramp groove 2721 also has two inclined surfaces, wherein the length of one inclined surface is greater than the length of the other inclined surface.
[0210] When the upper semicircular shell 272 rotates forward, the longer inclined surface pushes the slope boss 2735, so that the two slope bosses 2735 approach each other, driving the first telescopic rod 2733 and the second telescopic rod 2734 to approach each other and retract.
[0211] When the user releases the unlocking trigger mechanism 27, the first telescopic rod 2733 and the second telescopic rod 2734 extend away from each other, and the slope boss 2735 pushes the upper semicircular shell 272 to rotate in the opposite direction, and the upper semicircular shell 272 drives the lower semicircular shell 274 and the button 271 to reverse back to their original positions.
[0212] The first connecting member 2731 and the second connecting member 2732 are both provided with wire holes for connecting one end of a steel wire (not shown).
[0213] When the first telescopic rod 2733 and the second telescopic rod 2734 are retracted toward each other, one end of the upper steel wire is pulled, and the upper steel wire drives the first rotating joint 25 to unlock.
[0214] When the unlocking trigger mechanism 27 needs to be operated, the user holds the upper semicircular shell 272 and the lower semicircular shell 274 together to form a cylindrical tube with one hand, presses the button 271 first, and then rotates the upper semicircular shell 272 and the lower semicircular shell 274 together to form a cylindrical tube. The unlocking is realized by one hand, and it can be completed in one go. There is no need to operate with two hands at the same time, or to use complicated operation gestures, or to operate in two times to complete the operation.

[0222] The gear 254 includes a plurality of teeth, and an upper locking groove 2541 is provided on the edge of the gear 254. When the upper locking block 2531 of the upper locking member 253 extends downward and is inserted into the upper locking groove 2541, the upper locking member 253 locks the gear 254, and the gear 254 cannot rotate. The upper push rod rotating shell 251 and the lower push rod rotating shell 252 also cannot rotate relative to each other. At this time, the first rotating joint 25 is locked, and the upper push rod 21 and the lower push rod 22 cannot rotate and fold.
[0223] When the upper locking member 253 is pulled upward by the upper wire, the upper locking block 2531 is disengaged from the upper locking groove 2541. At this time, the reset member 258 pushes the gear 254 to move axially toward the first gear groove 2511, and is completely embedded in the first gear groove 2511, and disengages from the second gear groove 2521. The lower push rod rotating housing 252 is rotatably connected to the upper push rod rotating housing 251 only through a rotating shaft (not shown), and the lower push rod rotating housing 252 can rotate relative to the upper push rod rotating housing 251, so that the upper push rod 21 rotates relative to the lower push rod 22.
[0224] Furthermore, if Figure 20-21 As shown, the upper locking piece 253 is installed in the connecting tube 2513 of the upper push rod rotating shell 251, and the first gear groove 2511 is also provided with an entry groove 2512 which is connected to the connecting tube 2513. The entry groove 2512 corresponds to the upper locking groove 2541 along the axial direction. When locking, the upper locking block 2531 of the upper locking piece 253 is inserted into the entry groove 2512.
[0225] Furthermore, if Figure 18-19 As shown, the first rotating joint 25 further includes an upper cover plate 255 , which covers the outer side surface of the lower push rod rotating housing 252 to shield the end of the rotating shaft.
[0226] Furthermore, if Figure 21-22As shown, the first rotating joint 25 also includes a spring mounting seat 256, a push spring 257 and a reset member 258. The push spring 257 is installed on the spring mounting seat 256. The spring mounting seat 256 includes an insertion arm 2561 extending toward the gear 254. The gear 254 is provided with a slot 2543, and the insertion arm 2561 is inserted into the slot 2543.
[0227] The reset member 258 includes a lower wire hook 2581 and a second slope 2582. The lower wire hook 2581 is connected to one end of the lower wire to drive the lower wire. The two second slopes 2582 are located on one side of the reset member 258 facing the gear 254. The gear 254 is provided with a corresponding first slope 2542, and the first slope 2542 contacts the second slope 2582.
[0228] When the upper locking piece 253 is disengaged upward, the push spring 257 stretches and pushes the reset piece 258 axially toward the gear 254, and the second ramp 2582 pushes the first ramp 2542 to move axially, so that the gear 254 moves toward the first gear groove 2511 and disengages from the second gear groove 2521, thereby unlocking the first rotating joint 25.
[0229] After unlocking, the upper push rod 21 drives the upper push rod rotating shell 251, gear 254, spring mounting seat 256, push spring 257 and reset member 258 to rotate backward and downward together. When the reset member 258 rotates, it pulls the lower steel wire to unlock the second rotating joint 26.
[0230] The unlocking trigger mechanism 27 drives the first rotating joint 25 to unlock through the upper steel wire, and the first rotating joint 25 then drives the second rotating joint 26 to unlock through the lower steel wire. The two-stage unlocking method allows the second rotating joint 26 to be unlocked only after the first rotating joint 25 is unlocked and the upper push rod 21 is rotated and folded. The first rotating joint 25 and the second rotating joint 26 are not unlocked at the same time. The user must first rotate the upper push rod 21 to unlock the second rotating joint 26 and rotate the lower push rod 22. This makes the folding order unique, which is convenient for users to operate in sequence according to the set folding order. If the first rotating joint 25 and the second rotating joint 26 are unlocked at the same time, the user may not know whether to fold the upper push rod 21 or the lower push rod 22 first.
[0231] Second revolute joint:
[0232] like Figure 23-29 As shown, the second rotating joint 26 includes a lower steel wire 261 and a lower locking piece 262 . After the upper push rod 21 rotates, the lower steel wire 261 pulls the lower locking piece 262 to unlock the second rotating joint 26 .
[0233] Further, the second rotating joint 26 also includes a lower push rod rotating member 263, a front bracket rotating member 264 and a rear bracket rotating member 265;
[0234] The lower push rod rotating member 263 is connected to the lower end of the lower push rod 22, and the lower push rod rotating member 263 is rotatably connected to the front bracket rotating member 264 via a first rotating shaft 266;
[0235] The front bracket rotating member 264 is connected to the upper end of the front bracket 23, and the front bracket rotating member 264 and the rear bracket rotating member 265 are rotatably connected via a second rotating shaft 267;
[0236] The rear support rotating member 265 is connected to the upper end of the rear support 24;
[0237] The lower push rod rotating member 263, the front bracket rotating member 264 and the rear bracket rotating member 265 are all provided with a lower locking groove 268, and the lower locking member 262 is inserted into the lower locking groove 268, so that the second rotating joint 26 is locked.
[0238] Specifically, the lower push rod rotating member 263 includes two fan-shaped pieces, and the front bracket rotating member 264 includes a circular piece. The two lower push rod rotating members 263 clamp the front bracket rotating member 264 in the middle and are rotatably connected through the first rotating shaft 266 to achieve relative rotation between the lower push rod 22 and the front bracket 23.
[0239] like Figure 28-29 As shown, the rear bracket rotating member 265 is in the shape of a wrench, inserted into the front bracket rotating member 264, and rotatably connected via the second rotating shaft 267 to achieve relative rotation between the front bracket 23 and the rear bracket 24.
[0240] like Figure 24-26 As shown, the second rotating joint 26 also includes a rear fork member 2651 , which clamps the installed lower push rod rotating member 263 , the front bracket rotating member 264 and the rear bracket rotating member 265 therein, and is rotatably connected via a second rotating shaft 267 .
[0241] like Figure 24-25 As shown, the second rotating joint 26 further includes a front fork member 2641, which clamps the installed lower push rod rotating member 263, the front bracket rotating member 264, the rear bracket rotating member 265 and the rear fork member 2651 therein, and is rotatably connected to the first rotating shaft 266 and the second rotating shaft 267. The outer side of the front fork member 2641 is covered with a lower cover plate 269, which plays an aesthetic role by shielding the internal installation structure.
[0242] In addition to the front fork 2641, the lower push rod rotating member 263, the front bracket rotating member 264, the rear bracket rotating member 265 and the rear fork 2651 are all provided with a lower locking groove 268. Among them, the lower locking groove 268 on the lower push rod rotating member 263 is an elongated groove, and the lower locking member 262 can slide up and down in the elongated groove, and the upper end of the lower locking member 262 is connected to the lower end of the lower steel wire 261. When the lower steel wire 261 pulls the lower locking member 262, the lower locking member 262 slides upward along the elongated groove and escapes from the lower locking grooves 268 of the front bracket rotating member 264, the rear bracket rotating member 265 and the rear fork 2651, thereby unlocking the second rotating joint 26.
[0243] like Fig. 27 As shown, a return spring 2611 is sleeved on the lower steel wire 261, and when the lower steel wire 261 is pulled upward, the return spring 2611 is compressed. When the tension of the lower steel wire 261 is released, the return spring 2611 pushes the lower locking member 262 downward, and the lower locking member 262 is reinserted into the lower locking groove 268.
[0244] The lower rotating joint 26 in this embodiment can not only realize the folding of the stroller, but also provide sufficient support for the front bracket 23, the rear bracket 24 and the lower push rod 22, thereby increasing the stability of the baby stroller frame when it is in the unfolded state.
[0245] Furthermore, if Fig.31 As shown, the baby stroller frame 20 further includes a first connecting rod 28 , one end of which is rotatably connected to the lower push rod 22 , and the other end of which is connected to the backrest rotating joint 13 of the seat frame assembly 10 .
[0246] Furthermore, if Fig.32 As shown, the baby stroller frame 20 also includes a second connecting rod 29a and a third connecting rod 29b, one end of the second connecting rod 29b is rotatably connected to the other end of the first connecting rod 28, the other end of the second connecting rod 29a is rotatably connected to one end of the third connecting rod 29b, and the other end of the third connecting rod 29b is fixedly connected to the handrail rod 27.
[0247] The first connecting rod 28, the second connecting rod 29a and the third connecting rod 29b play a supporting and connecting role for the seat frame assembly 10. Fig.17 As shown, when the baby stroller is unfolded, the seat frame assembly 10 can be kept in a stable state. Fig.18 As shown, when the baby stroller is folded, the seat frame assembly 10 can be stored in the baby stroller frame 20 .
[0248] In this embodiment, the seat frame assembly 10 can be folded independently relative to the baby stroller frame 20 and can be flexibly adjusted to meet different usage requirements.
[0249] Optionally, the seat frame assembly 10 may also be foldable together with the stroller frame 20 .
[0250] like Figure 34-35 The figure shows a variation of the second embodiment, in which the seat frame assembly 10 may further include a first connecting rod 28, a first connecting column 123 and a second connecting column 1322; one end of the first connecting rod 28 is rotatably connected to the lower push rod 22, and the other end is connected to the backrest rotation joint 13 of the seat frame assembly 10; the front bracket 23 is connected to the seat frame assembly 10 via the first connecting column 123; the rear bracket 24 is connected to the seat frame assembly 10 via the second connecting column 1322.
[0251] When the baby stroller frame 20 is unfolded, the first connecting column 123, the second connecting column 1322 and the connecting rod 25 play a role in three-point positioning of the seat frame assembly 10, and the relative positions of the seat frame assembly 10 and other components of the baby stroller frame 20 remain unchanged.
[0252] When the stroller frame 20 is folded, the first connecting column 123, the second connecting column 1322 and the connection points of the first connecting rod 28 rotate, and the seat frame assembly 10 rotates relative to the upper push rod 21, the lower push rod 22, the front bracket 22 and the rear bracket 23.
[0253] The folding process of the baby stroller frame is as follows:
[0254] When the baby stroller frame 20 is folded, the button 271 is first pressed, and then the cylindrical tube composed of the upper semicircular shell 272 and the lower semicircular shell 274 is rotated forward to unlock the first rotating joint 25;
[0255] After unlocking, the upper push rod 21 is flipped backward and downward, and the upper push rod 21 is folded to the rear side of the lower push rod 22. After the upper push rod 21 is folded, the second rotation joint 26 is unlocked;
[0256] Then the lower push rod 22 is flipped forward and downward, and the lower push rod 22 and the upper push rod 21 are flipped downward and close to the front bracket 23;
[0257] Finally, the baby stroller frame 20 is lifted up, and the rear support 24 and the front support 23 are naturally brought together under the action of gravity, completing the folding of the entire baby stroller frame 20. The folded state is shown in FIG. Fig.30 .
[0258] By implementing this embodiment, the baby stroller frame can be quickly folded, and the volume after folding is smaller. Since the upper push rod 21 and the lower push rod 22 divide the push rod into two sections, the volume after folding can be reduced, which is convenient for storage. In addition, the second rotating joint 26 is unlocked by folding the upper push rod 21, which is conducive to step-by-step operation during folding, which is simple and easy to understand.
[0259] Embodiment 2:
[0260] like Fig.36 As shown, the baby stroller folding method comprises the following steps:
[0261] S201: operate the switch unit 14 to unlock the upper rotary joint 19 and the lower rotary joint 13;
[0262] S202: Flipping the first back portion 11 forward and downward so that the first back portion 11 is closer to the second back portion 18;
[0263] S203: Flipping the second back portion 18 forward and downward so that the second back portion 18 is closer to the seat portion 12;
[0264] S204: operating the unlocking trigger mechanism 27 to unlock the first rotating joint 25;

[0266] S206: The second rotating joint 26 is unlocked, and the lower push rod 22 is flipped forward and downward to be close to the front bracket 23;
[0267] S207: Lift the handle hole 1212 on the seat frame assembly 10 (see Fig.32 ), the front bracket 23 and the rear bracket 24 are naturally folded under the action of gravity.
[0268] Furthermore, when the unlocking trigger mechanism 27 is operated in step S204,
[0269] First, press the button 271 of the unlocking trigger mechanism 27;
[0270] The unlocking trigger mechanism 27 is then rotated forward.
[0271] By implementing this embodiment, the seat frame assembly is folded first, and then the baby stroller frame is folded. The seat frame assembly 10 and the baby stroller frame 20 are folded and stored independently, which increases the flexibility of adjustment and meets the different needs of users.
[0272] The above description is only the principle and preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several other modifications can be made based on the principle of the present invention, which should also be considered as the protection scope of the present invention.
