Baby stroller frame

A smart tablet device holder incorporating two cup-shaped speakers. The housing of each speaker is shaped and sized as a cup and can be placed inside commonly seen cup holders. The two cup-shaped speakers are connected by a bridge member between them which is designed to hold a smart tablet device such as a tablet computer, an e-reader, etc. The bridge member is integrally connected with the two speakers or is a separate piece cooperating with the two speakers. The two cup-shaped speakers can be inserted into two cup holders of, for example, a parent tray of a baby stroller. The holder has electrical connectors for electrically connecting to the audio output of the smart tablet device. Two sound producing devices are disposed within each speaker housing and face upwards and downwards so that the sound can be heard by both the baby and the parent.

Double stroller

A stroller with a leg rest that can be rotated to different positions, including an upward position in which the leg rest is adapted to be partially inserted into a notch of an infant car seat for secure placement of the car seat on the stroller. In one embodiment, the stroller frame is collapsible for storage, where a left side structure and a right side structure can be collapsed toward each other. The leg rest is formed of two individual members each attached to one of the left and right side structures. A gap exists between the two members when the stroller frame is in the uncollapsed state, allowing the two members to move toward each other when the stroller frame is collapsed, so that the leg rest does not need to be detached when collapsing the stroller frame. In another embodiment, the leg rest is a one-piece structure.

A baby stroller for receiving car seats is disclosed. The stroller has a frame structure including two car seat receiving frames spaced apart in a longitudinal direction. The two frames are located at different heights, allowing the two car seats placed thereon to overlap each in the longitudinal direction. On each car seat receiving frame, one or more support straps are attached to a front bar and a rear bar of the frame and located below the frame. The support straps are adjustable in length. When a car seat is rested on a car seat receiving frame, the bottom of the car seat is supported by the support straps. A safety strap is provided to secure each car seat to the frame structure. The stroller does not have a seat for seating a child.

A baby highchair for detachably adapting an infant car seat. The highchair has a frame structure and a seat having a bottom and two opposite sidewalls each having two indents, and a car seat adapter bar detachably mounted to the seat between the two opposite sidewalls. The adapter bar has an elongated body with two opposite ends each having two pins, such that the pins at the opposite ends of the adapter bar can be respectively engaged with the indents on the opposite sidewalls of the seat of the highchair to securely attach the car seat adapter bar to the highchair. The elongated body of the car seat adapter bar has a contour for receiving the infant car seat such that the infant car seat can be secured to the adapter bar to adapt the car seat onto the highchair.

A sleeper for infants is described. The sleeper has four short legs, a frame supported by the legs and a bassinette hanging from the frame. The sleeper can rest on its legs for use in a stand-alone state, or be mounted on a playard for use as a bedside sleeper. When mounted on a playard, the sleeping surface of the sleeper has approximately the same height as an adult's bed.

A foldable stroller frame has three sections (a lower-front section, a lower-rear section, and an upper-rear section) joined to and foldable around a common hub structure. The hub structure includes two hubs located on the left and right sides of the stroller frame. In at least one of the hubs, a bracket structure is mounted to the lower-rear section and holds two gears which are attached to the lower-front section and upper-rear section, respectively. The two gears are engaged with each other, so that the lower-front section and upper-rear section rotate in synchrony with respect to the lower-rear section when the stroller frame is being folded. The hub also includes a releasable locking mechanism, which is controlled by a pull trigger located on the upper-rear section of the stroller near the push handles, for locking the stroller frame in the unfolded state.

Smart tablet device holder

A portable speaker for a music play such as an iPod&#xae; player. The housing of the speaker is shaped and sized as a cup and can be placed inside a commonly seen cup holder, such as a cup holder in a car or other vehicles, a baby stroller, a foldable camping chair, etc. The speaker housing has a slot for receiving a music player, as well as electrical connectors for electrically connecting to the audio output of the music player. The sound producing devices are disposed within the speaker housing and face upwards and/or downwards.

A stroller with a front tray in front of the seat that can be folded down. The front tray is attached to two side bars of the stroller and can rotate around an axis that is horizontal and perpendicular to the moving direction of the stroller. The rotation axis is along a substantially straight side of the tray. When the tray is folded down, the tray is substantially vertical with the straight side at the top, and an infant car sear can be placed on the stroller such that the vertical tray is inserted into a notch in the base of the car seat.

In a foldable playyard an improved floor assembly avoids the accidental folding of the playyard with the child in the playyard. A fabric floor assembly comprising three separate panels, two of which are fully secured peripherally to the frame assembly for a sturdier bottom/floor is disclosed. Also the two bottom layers are purposely separated from each other so as to create an air-gap therebetween to serve as a natural 'shock-absorber' for a child jumping up and down in the playyard. One layer of the double layer fabric floor assembly is connected to all the vertical panels and the second layer is attached to the lower horizontal supports.
