AI Technical Summary
Existing connecting brackets made of plastic are prone to breakage under excessive force, posing a safety risk in applications like strollers and buggies.
A metal connecting bracket with a folding mechanism is designed to handle force transmission, allowing it to bend instead of breaking, and can be adapted to suit the required force and safety needs.
The metal connecting bracket effectively manages force transmission without breaking, ensuring safety and reliability in products like strollers and buggies.

Abstract
Description
[0001] A connecting bracket (4) between two tubes (1 and 2) was invented for force transmission. A plastic part (3) connected the two tubes with a folding mechanism.
[0002] If excessive force is applied, the plastic can break and the pipes can fall apart.
[0003] This poses a safety risk with strollers and buggies.
[0004] The connecting brackets relieve the plastic parts of the force and allow them to only perform the guiding function.
[0005] The connecting bracket handles the force transmission and can be adapted in terms of dimension and quality to the required force and safety of the product.
[0006] The connecting bracket is made of metal and its quality can be chosen so that it does not break.
[0007] If too much force is applied, it will slowly bend but not break.
Claims
[1] A bracket that transfers the force from one tube to the pivot point of another tube.
