Description
Background of the Invention
The invention relates to a stroller. More particularly, the invention relates to a stroller with double seats.
A conventional double-seat stroller has two seats in the same direction. The distance of the two seats should be long enough to receive the foot and leg portions of a child in the back seat. The long stroller is not convenient for moving.
Summary of the Invention
An object of the invention is to provide a double-seat stroller whose two seats are in the opposite directions so that the length of the double-seat stroller can be shortened.
Another object of the invention is to provide a double-seat stroller whose back seat can be removed to provide an interior to receive articles.
Accordingly, a double-seat stroller comprises two front wheel frames, two rear wheel frames, a longitudinal U-shaped pushbar with two arms, a generally U-shaped armrest bar disposed at the middle portion of the pushbar transversely, a generally rectangular basket frame disposed transversely under the pushbar to support a basket, and a back plate disposed at the middle portion of the basket frame to separate the front seat and the back seat. A back seat plate is disposed beneath the back plate. A safety strap is disposed across two arms of the pushbar.

Detailed Description of the Invention
Referring to FIG. 1, a double-seat stroller comprises two front wheel frames 1, two rear wheel frames 2, a longitudinal U-shaped pushbar 3, a generally U-shaped armrest bar 5 disposed at the middle portion of the pushbar 3 transversely, a generally rectangular basket frame 4 disposed transversely under the pushbar 3 to support a basket 40, a back plate 41 disposed at the middle portion of the basket frame 4 upwardly and longitudinally to separate the front seat and the back seat, and two generally C-shaped holding bars 31 disposed at two arms of the pushbar 3 and above the armrest bar 5.
Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, a back seat plate 42 is disposed beneath the back plate 41. A fastening band 411 is disposed at the middle of the back plate 41 to fasten the back plate 41 and the back seat plate 42 together. Two fastening straps 421 are disposed at two sides of the back seat plate 42 to fasten the back seat plate 42 and the basket frame 4 together. Then the back seat plate 42 is placed on the basket frame 4. A pedal 22 is disposed between the two rear wheel frames 2 transversely and connected to the rear wheel frames 2 by two links 21 which are disposed at two sides of the pedal 22. A safety strap 32 is disposed across two arms of the pushbar 3.
Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, the back seat plate 42 is placed on the basket frame 4 and two children sit in the two seats. If a child does not like to sit, the safety strap 32 can be used to fasten the waist of the child while the child stands beside the stroller. When the back seat is empty, the back seat plate 42 is fastened to the back plate 41 so that the basket 40 can receive articles.
The invention is not limited to the above embodiment but various modification thereof may be made. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and detail may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
