Filed:

Feb 6, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/367307

Inventors:

James I. Geeslin - Kennesaw GA, US

Assignee:

Excelligence Learning Corporation - Monterey CA

International Classification:

B62B 7/00

US Classification:

280 4738, 280658, 280642

Abstract:

A stroller with a braking mechanism that automatically configures itself in a braking position provides protection against the unattended stroller from rolling away. By applying force to a handle, the braking mechanism is released and the stroller is able to be pushed as usual. The handle and braking mechanism are biased in the braking position by a spring located near the rear wheels. The braking mechanism applies sufficient frictional force against the tire of the wheel to prevent the wheel from rolling.
