Abstract

A child stroller apparatus includes a standing frame, a push handle frame having a side segment that is pivotally connected with the standing frame via a pivot connection, an adapter having a coupling portion configured to receive the installation of a detachable part, the adapter being fixedly connected with a handle, the handle having a cavity through which is slidably disposed the side segment so that the handle and the adapter are slidable in unison along the side segment for adjustment, and a locking mechanism for locking the adapter in position on the side segment.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A child stroller apparatus comprising:
a standing frame;
a push handle frame having a side segment, the side segment being pivotally connected with the standing frame via a pivot connection;
an adapter having a coupling portion configured to receive the installation of a detachable part, the adapter being fixedly connected with a handle that is located behind the adapter when the child stroller apparatus is in an unfolded state for use, the handle having a cavity through which is slidably disposed the side segment so that the handle and the adapter are slidable in unison along the side segment for adjustment; and
a locking mechanism for locking the adapter in position on the side segment, the locking mechanism including a release actuator exposed on the handle for operation, the release actuator being operable to cause the locking mechanism to unlock for sliding adjustment of the handle and the adapter along the side segment.

2. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the handle at least partially wraps around the side segment.

3. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the adapter and the handle are disposed apart from each other along the side segment and are fixedly connected with each other via an extension.

4. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the adapter and the handle are fixedly connected with the extension at two opposite ends of the extension.

5. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the extension is disposed at an inner side of the side segment.

6. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the locking mechanism is assembled with the handle.

7. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the adapter is slidable to a position where the adapter is adjacent to and at a same level as the pivot connection.

8. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the coupling portion of the adapter is configured to receive the installation of a detachable child seat or a basket as the detachable part.

9. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the standing frame includes a front leg frame having a second side segment, and a rear leg frame having a third side segment pivotally connected with the second side segment, the side segment of the push handle frame being pivotally connected with the second side segment of the front leg frame via the pivot connection.

10. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 9 , further including a second adapter provided on the second side segment for receiving the installation of a detachable part.

11. A child stroller apparatus comprising:
a push handle frame having a first side segment;
a front leg frame having a second side segment connected with the first side segment via a pivot connection;
a rear leg frame having a third side segment pivotally connected with the second side segment;
a first adapter having a coupling portion configured to receive the installation of a detachable child seat or a detachable basket, the first adapter being carried with the push handle frame and being slidably connected with the first side segment;
a locking mechanism for locking the first adapter in position on the first side segment; and
a second adapter provided on the second side segment for receiving the installation of a detachable child seat or a detachable basket.

12. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein the locking mechanism includes a latch and a release actuator respectively connected with the first adapter, the latch being movable to engage with any of a plurality of openings provided on the first side segment for locking the first adapter in multiple positions along the first side segment, and the release actuator being operable to urge the latch to unlock the first adapter for adjustment.

13. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein the first adapter is slidable along the first side segment to a position where the adapter is adjacent to and at a same level as the pivot connection.

14. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein the first adapter is fixedly connected with a handle, the handle having a cavity through which is slidably disposed the first side segment so that the handle and the first adapter are slidable in unison along the first side segment for adjustment.

15. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 14 , wherein the handle at least partially wraps around the first side segment.

16. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 14 , wherein the handle is located behind the first adapter when the child stroller apparatus is in an unfolded state for use.

17. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 14 , wherein the first adapter and the handle are disposed apart from each other along the first side segment and are fixedly connected with each other via an extension.

18. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 14 , wherein the locking mechanism is assembled with the handle.

19. The child stroller apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein the second adapter is pivotally connected with the second side segment.
