Abstract
A stroller includes a stroller frame movable between an in-use configuration and a folded configuration and a seat assembly mounted to the stroller frame. The stroller frame includes right and left front legs, right and left fold links, and right and left seat support frame members extending between the respective right and left front legs and the respective right and left fold links. The seat assembly includes a seat and a seat support mounted to the right and left seat support frame members such that, as the stroller frame moves from the in-use configuration to the folded configuration, the seat support translates relative to the right and left seat support frame members. The stroller frame also can include right and left push arms and right and left rear legs. The fold links can be configured to have three pivots, in which case each seat support frame member pivotally connects to the respective fold link at a first pivot, each push arm pivotally connects to the respective fold link at a second pivot, and each rear leg pivotally connects to the fold link at a third pivot.
