Abstract
A foldable stroller () is provided with at least one pushrod () being pivotable about a first pivot axis (). The folding mechanism is further provided with a number of rods, comprising a first rod () being pivotable about a second pivot axis (). The first rod and the pushrod are provided with cooperating connecting elements () being connectable to each other by pivoting the pushrod about the first pivot axis to an erect position of the pushrod, in which position the connecting elements are lockable to each other by locking means (). When the locking means are unlocked and the connecting elements are still connected to each other, the connecting means prevent the first rod to pivot about the second pivot axis. After unlocking the locking means as well as after disconnecting the connecting elements by pivoting the pushrod about the first pivot axis towards a collapsed position of the pushrod, the first rod is pivotable about the second axis to achieve the collapsed position of the stroller.
