Abstract
A locking device for collapsable stroller is located at the gripping portion of handle. The locking device comprises a housing, a pair of meshed gear members in the housing pivotal in two different opposite directions, a push button engaged with gear members, and a pair of steel cables coupled to the gear members. Whereby, pressing a push button pulls steel cables toward the center of gripping portion, thereby unlocking the latches so as to unfold the stroller thereafter. The stroller further comprises a safety mechanism at the upper side of one gear member. Safety mechanism comprises a pawl-like member caught by the gear member in the locked state of the stroller, thus preventing latches from accidentally being unlocked.
