Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the stroller pull strap folding mechanism includes a first support frame 1 and a second support frame 2. The second support frame 2 is rotatably mounted at the rear end of the first support frame 1. The side cross-section of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2 is V-shaped. Pull straps 3 are fixed on the left and right sides of the lower outer end of the first support frame 1. The outer wall of the second support frame 2 is provided with a limiting component 4. The limiting component 4 includes a mounting strap 401 fixed on the left and right sides of the lower outer end of the second support frame 2. A limiting ring 402 is fixed at the front end of the mounting strap 401. The limiting ring 402 corresponds to the pull strap 3 one by one. The limiting ring 402 is sleeved on the outside of the pull strap 3. The end of the pull strap 3 away from the first support frame 1 passes through the position between the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2. A connecting strap 403 is sewn between the rear ends of the two pull straps 3. The connecting strap 403 is located at the upper end of the transition area between the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2. The pull strap 3 is designed to be non-contacting with the transition area between the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2.

[0027] First, the front end of the pull strap 3 is fixedly connected to the first support frame 1, and the rear end of the pull strap 3 passes through the limiting ring 402. When it is necessary to store the unfolded first support frame 1 and second support frame 2, the user only needs to hold the connecting strap 403 with one hand and pull the connecting strap 403 upward, so that the connecting strap 403 drives the pull strap 3 to move in conjunction with the limiting ring 402 and the mounting strap 401, together with the second support frame 2, along the direction of the first support frame 1, thereby making the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2 move in opposite directions. In this way, the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2 can be stored. As can be seen from the above, this application can quickly store the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2 through mechanical simplification design. The operation method is time-saving and labor-saving, which not only improves the convenience of operation and use for users, but also reduces the difficulty and cost of subsequent manufacturing of this device.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, rollers 5 are fixed on the left and right sides of the bottom of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2, and the rear rollers 5 have a foot brake function. The rotating areas of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2 are connected by connecting rods 6. There are two connecting rods 6, and the two connecting rods 6 are designed to be parallel to each other. The upper end of the connecting rod 6 is provided with a pull rod 7. There are two pull rods 7, and the two pull rods 7 are designed to be parallel to each other. A locking mechanism 8 is provided between the connecting rod 6 and the pull rod 7. The locking mechanism 8 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 6 and the pull rod 7. A push rod 9 is fixed between each pair of pull rods 7. The push rod 9 connects the two pull rods 7 into one unit. The front cross-section of the push rod 9 is designed with a U-shaped direction. A rotating part 10 is provided in the transition area between the connecting rod 6 and the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2. A connecting belt 403 connects the two pull belts 3 into one unit. The connecting belt 403 and the pull belt 3 are made of soft material.

[0030] According to the operation method in Embodiment 1, when the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2 are in the unfolded state, the user can push the push rod 9, which in turn causes the push rod 9 to drive the roller 5 and the device to move. When storing, the user pushes the push rod 9, which causes the push rod 9 and the pull rod 7 to rotate around the locking mechanism 8, thereby realizing the rotation and folding of the pull rod 7. Then, by using the locking mechanism 8, the folded pull rod 7 is locked. Afterwards, the user pulls the connecting strap 403 upward to fold the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 2. The rotating component 10 ensures the smoothness of the rotation and folding of the connecting rod 6. Through the above method, the overall volume of the device after storage is reduced, improving the convenience of the user in transporting it. The locking mechanism 8 and the rotating component 10 are existing components that come with the stroller, so this application does not need to describe the working principle of the locking mechanism 8 and the rotating component 10 in detail.
