WIRELESS BRAKING DEVICE FOR BABY STROLLER

Abstract

Baby strollers are essential piece of equipment for family life. They help parents get on with what need to do when children carmot be keeping up with. Each product in the market, including foldable strollers, single seat or twin seat strollers are made with some sort of braking system, but guardian sometimes forget to put them on or do not put them on appropriately causing a child in a stroller rolling towards dangerous obstacles. Motivated by the high number of children treated each year for stroller-related injuries, an improved braking system is developed as a resolution to decrease the child's risk of injury. The system is disclosed whereby when the stroller is at rest and not being pushed by a guardian, the wheels of the stroller are automatically locked to prevent accidental propulsion or any unforeseen stroller movement, particularly when stopped on an inclined surface. In accordance with the invention, the system uses a handheld unit, carry on by the guardian, wirelessly connected to the brake levers associated with the rear wheels of the stroller. Split by more than two meters range cause the wireless connection to disconnect. In the occurrence of failure signals propagation due to ineffective range of frequency, alarm will be triggered and simultaneously the self- braking system is put in motion to preclude the wheels from rotation. It is designed to easily retrofit to existing strollers with the aim to prevent any unintentional rolling movement
