Technical Field
[0001] This utility model mainly relates to a stroller, and more particularly to a foldable stroller. Background Technology
[0002] Existing strollers typically consist of a frame and a backrest and seat mounted on the frame. When folding the stroller, it is usually necessary to operate the frame, backrest, and seat separately to fold them all. This method of folding strollers is cumbersome and inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0003] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a foldable stroller.
[0004] This utility model provides a foldable stroller, comprising a frame and a folding mechanism. The frame includes a rear wheel support, a front wheel support, a bracket, and a push rod. One end of the rear wheel support has a joint with a first locking key groove. The front wheel support is pivotally mounted to the joint about a front axle. The bracket is pivotally mounted to the joint about a rear axle and has a latch along its radial outer periphery. The push rod is pivotally mounted to the bracket between an unfolded and a folded position. The folding mechanism is switchably connected to the frame between the unfolded and folded states. The folding mechanism includes a first pulley, a control component, a first pull cord, a locking key, and a linkage. The first pulley is pivotally mounted to the push rod. The control element is pivotally mounted on the bracket. One end of the first pull rope is connected to the first pulley and the other end is connected to the control element. The locking key is radially movable along the rear axle and is disposed in the first locking key groove. The linkage is pivotally connected to the front wheel bracket about a first axis and pivotally connected to the bracket about a second axis. The front axle, the rear axle, the first axis, and the second axis are parallel to each other. When the folding mechanism is in the unfolded state, the locking key is inserted into the latch, preventing the bracket from rotating relative to the rear wheel bracket. When the push rod rotates to the reverse folding position, it can switch the folding mechanism to the folded state. When the folding mechanism is in the folded state, the control element pushes the locking key out of the latch, allowing the bracket and the front wheel bracket to rotate synchronously relative to the rear wheel bracket. The stroller can be folded and its volume greatly reduced through the above structure.
[0005] The front wheel bracket has a second locking keyway along a direction parallel to the front axle. The second locking keyway includes a movable part and a locking part. The movable part is arc-shaped with the front axle as the center. The locking part connects to the movable part and extends radially along the front axle. When the folding mechanism is in the unfolded state, the locking key is located in the locking part, preventing the front wheel bracket from rotating relative to the rear wheel bracket. When the folding mechanism is in the folded state, the locking key moves to the movable part, and when the front wheel bracket rotates, the locking key moves within the movable part.
[0006] The rear wheel bracket is provided with two stabilizing blocks and two elastic elements. The two stabilizing blocks are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the rear wheel bracket along the rear axle axis and are movable radially along the rear axle. The two stabilizing blocks are respectively connected to opposite ends of the locking key. The two elastic elements are connected to the two stabilizing blocks. One end of the elastic element abuts against the rear wheel bracket and the other end abuts against the stabilizing block. The elastic element can push the stabilizing block to drive the locking key to move closer to the rear axle.
[0007] The rear wheel bracket is provided with a limiting rod in a direction parallel to the front axle, and the front wheel bracket is provided with a limiting groove in a direction parallel to the front axle. The limiting groove is arc-shaped with the front axle as the center, and the limiting rod is movably inserted into the limiting groove.
[0008] The bracket is provided with a plug, a plug spring, and a crossbar. The plug is radially movable within the bracket along the rear axle. The plug spring is located within the bracket, with one end abutting against the bracket and the other end abutting against the plug. The plug spring can push the plug to move away from the rear axle. The plug has a closed end opposite to the plug spring, which is located within the latch. One end of the crossbar is slidably connected to the control element, and the other end is connected to the plug. When the folding mechanism is in the unfolded state, the closed end abuts against the locking key. When the folding mechanism is in the folded state, the closed end moves away from the rear axle and blocks the latch.
[0009] The folding mechanism includes a reset elastic element that is sleeved on the first pull rope. One end of the reset elastic element abuts against the bracket and the other end abuts against the control element.
[0010] The bracket is provided with a first locking part, and the push rod is provided with a shaft, a second locking part, and a button. The shaft passes through the first locking part and is pivotally mounted on the bracket. The first locking part and the second locking part are adjacent to and surround the shaft. The folding mechanism includes a second rope pulley and a locking member. The second rope pulley is rotatably sleeved on the shaft and disposed in the second locking part. The second rope pulley is connected to a second pull rope. One end of the second pull rope opposite to the second rope pulley is connected to the button. The locking member is axially movable on the shaft. When the button is released, the locking member simultaneously engages the first locking part and the second locking part, keeping the push rod in the unfolded position. Pressing the button can drive the second rope pulley to rotate through the second pull rope, and the second rope pulley can push the locking member to move towards the bracket and disengage from the second locking part, allowing the push rod to rotate relative to the bracket.

The locking member 38 is axially movable on the shaft 241. When the button 243 is released, the locking member 38 simultaneously engages the first locking part 237 and the second locking part 242, keeping the push rod 24 in the unfolded position. Pressing the button 243 can drive the second rope pulley 37 to rotate through the second pull rope 371, and the second rope pulley 37 can push the locking member 38 to move towards the bracket 23 and disengage from the second locking part 242, so that the push rod 24 can rotate relative to the bracket 23.
[0043] The stroller 10 can be folded and its size greatly reduced through the above-described structure. Pressing the button 243 and then folding the push rod 24 forward switches the folding mechanism 30 to the folding state. After the folding mechanism 30 is unlocked, the rear wheel bracket 21, the front wheel bracket 22, and the bracket 23, together with the linkage 35, can form a four-bar linkage structure, so that the front wheel bracket 22 and the bracket 23 can be folded synchronously towards the rear wheel bracket 21. After the stroller 10 is folded, the rear wheel bracket 21, the front wheel bracket 22, the bracket 23, and the push rod 24 overlap adjacent to each other, making the stroller 10 not only greatly reduced in size and easy to store, but also designed to be folded with only one hand by operating the push rod 24. This makes it convenient for users to take out items or pick up the baby and then fold the stroller 10 with the other hand.
