The suspension assembly comprises a web link having a link slot and is coupled to the clamp. A first web is configured in a closed loop and coupled to the web link through the link slot. A tube defining an interior cavity is provided, with the tube having a spring retainer on one end and an anchor pin on the other end. The anchor pin is threaded through the loop of the first web, wherein the tube is coupled to the web link. A spring is nested in the interior cavity of the tube against the spring retainer. A disk having a disk slot is coupled to a second web at one end of the second web. The other end of the second web is passed through the spring in the tube and coupled to a web spreader. The web spreader has a seat slot wherein the seat web engages the seat slot to suspend the seat assembly.

Stroller

Foldable stroller

A stroller has a collapsible frame, a removable stand, a removable footrest assembly, removable front and upper trays, and a latch for maintaining the collapsible frame in the collapsed position. The stand is connected to the cross brace and the intermediate bar of the frame, and movable between an extended position when the stroller frame is in the collapsed position and a retracted position when the stroller frame is in the operating position. The stand includes a stand guide and an elongated member movable relative to the stand guide. The elongated member has a first C-shaped collar at one end thereof and a foot at the opposite end. The foot can engage the ground or support when the stand is moved to the extended position to keep the collapsed stroller in an upright position. The stand guide has a second C-shaped collar. The first collar is pivotally and removably connected to an intermediate bar of the seat support, and the second collar is pivotally and removably connected to a rear cross brace connecting the rear right and left legs of the collapsible frame. The footrest assembly is attached to a front cross brace connecting the front right and left legs of the collapsible frame.

An infant swing assembly has a stabilizer for immobilizing the seat during placement of a child therein and removal therefrom. The stabilizer has at least one connector, preferably a pair of collinearly spaced ring connectors, for pivotally attaching to the hanger of the swing assembly. The stabilizer has an engaging portion, preferably a hook which can be engaged with the leg of the swing assembly to immobilize the seat. The stabilizer can be pivoted downward and positioned adjacent the side of the seat where the stabilizer cannot engage with the leg thus permitting the seat to freely swing and laterally outwardly where the stabilizer is able to engage with the leg.

A swivel wheel assembly which is easy to assemble and convenient for use includes a tube plug inserted into a tube leg, a pivot pin inserted into the tube plug and a rotary member rotatably secured on the pin. The rotary member supports a shaft and pair of wheels. By using a hard material for the pin, a softer material for the rotary member and a still softer material for the tube plug, friction is reduced. The plug, pin and rotary member are assembled without the use of fasteners. The rotary member includes a resilient flexible member with a key received in a circumferential groove of the pivot pin.
