WIRELESS BRAKING DEVICE FOR BABY STROLLER

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.
