I was training my teen student driver on the road when I came up with this brilliant yet innovative idea. It is very hard to control the vehicle by just merely yelling BRAKE to the student driver. It is unfair to other motorists the risk they are unknowingly taking without an absolute control of the vehicle of a professional driver who is just sitting on the passenger side. In view of this unsafe training condition, I designed and fabricated a Famor Extension Brake. It is a mechanical device that is easily installed on any motor vehicle without modifications. Using this device, the passenger can independently apply the brake to the vehicle when the driver fails to do so. These can be a student, old or destructed drivers.

A stroller includes a foldable frame comprising carbon fiber. The frame is configured to removably connect to at least one of a stroller seat and an infant car seat. The stroller includes a plurality of wheels that support the frame, and a handle coupled to the frame. The stroller may include a suspension system including a leaf having a flexible cantilevered portion fixed at a first end thereof to the stroller frame. The cantilevered portion has a second, free end spaced from the frame. The cantilevered portion is configured to flex about the fixed end. The suspension system includes a damper disposed between the first and second ends of the cantilevered portion and the stroller frame. The damper is configured to compress and expand in response to flexing of the cantilevered portion. A wheel is connected to an underside of said cantilevered portion of the leaf.

A carrier adjusting mechanism is applied to a stroller including a stroller frame and a carrier and includes a base, a locking structure, a locking device, and a release actuator. The base is connected to the stroller frame. The locking structure is connected to the carrier and pivoted to the base. The locking device is disposed between the base and the locking structure. The locking device includes a first engaging structure, a second engaging structure, and a locking member. The locking member is engaged with the first engaging structure at a first position or the second engaging structure at the second position. The release actuator is disposed on the stroller and connected to the locking device for disengaging the locking member from the first engaging structure or the second engaging structure, to allow the locking structure to move between the first position and the second position together with the carrier.

A stroller accessory connects to a stroller to form a double stroller together and is unusable to transport a child when the accessory is disconnected from the stroller. It includes a frame, a connection mechanism reversibly connecting the accessory to the stroller while defining a tilting axis around which the front part of the accessory frame and the rear of the stroller frame tilt freely relative to one another, two pivoting wheels on a rear part of the frame, a pushing member on the frame rear, a control mechanism controlling a rolling blocking of the double stroller, on the frame front that cooperates mechanically with a rolling blocking system, in the stroller, controlling the blocking system, and an actuating member, on the frame rear to be activated by a user standing behind the double stroller, and which is coupled to the control mechanism so as to actuate the latter.

An improved baby carrier is disclosed that includes a support frame coupled to a seating assembly though a suspension mechanism to provide weight support for a baby or toddler. The baby carrier includes an attachment harness worn by an adult to provide non-slip coupling between the baby carrier and the adult. The baby carrier also includes a semi-rigid coupling between the seat and harness assembly, a seat height adjustment capability, a sturdy support frame configuration, and a braking system. The baby carrier is a structurally stable device, and during use, significantly reduces the load of carrying the baby or toddler on the adult. Further, the baby carrier can have a compact size in a stowed mode for mobility, and can be used to meet a variety of user needs and carrying scenarios.

A wheel structure that makes braking easy and prevents sudden stops, and a pushcart having the wheel structure are provided. The wheel structure includes a rotor that is rotatable about an axle and is stopped from rotating by a brake member, a wheel that is coaxial with the rotor and is rotatable about the rotor, and a relative-rotation resisting member that is disposed between the rotor and wheel and produces resistance force resisting the relative rotation of the rotor and wheel.

A brake system for use with a wheeled device, such as a wheeled person transportation device, such as a wheelchair. The brake system comprises a handle comprising a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion is moveably coupled to the second portion; a carrier comprising an internal cavity; a brake actuator for actuating a brake, the brake actuator being arranged within the internal cavity; brake actuator biasing means for applying a biasing force to the brake actuator for biasing the brake actuator to a brake-engaged position; and force-transfer means coupled to the first portion and to the brake actuator such that movement of the first portion towards the second portion causes the brake actuator to move along the internal cavity of the carrier against the biasing force to a brake-disengaged position.

A child transport carrier includes a handle bar and a rotatable brake actuator disposed around the handle bar. The rotatable brake actuator includes a first portion having a first radius of curvature and a second portion having a second radius of curvature. The first radius of curvature is less than the second radius of curvature. Rotating the rotatable brake actuator around the handle bar activates a first wheel brake.
