Abstract

The disclosure provides a baby carriage brake mechanism and a baby carriage. The baby carriage brake mechanism includes a frame, a brake drive assembly, linkage assemblies, brake locks and wheels. The brake drive assembly is disposed on the frame. The linkage assemblies are respectively slidably disposed on the frame on both of left and right sides. Both ends of the brake drive assembly are respectively in abutting connection with the two linkage assemblies. The linkage assemblies are coupled to the brake locks. Two wheels are respectively pivotally disposed at both sides of the frame. By driving the brake drive assembly to push the linkage assemblies to act with the brake locks, the brake locks on both sides are engaged with the wheels, thereby locking the wheels on both sides. Therefore, the baby carriage brake mechanism of the disclosure may brake wheels on both sides simultaneously with simple operation.
