ABSTRACT:
An all-terrain stroller having a pair of rear wheels, each having a receiver fixedly attached thereto for rotation therewith. The receiver has a plurality of circumferentially distributed receiver openings which open inward toward the opposite rear wheel. A pair of brake rods is movably supported by the rear axle of the stroller for lateral movement of each toward and away from one of the receivers under the urging of a coil spring. A foot pedal actuator is rotatable between brake engaged and disengaged positions. The foot pedal carries a cam which moves the brake rods toward and into one of the receiver openings of the corresponding receiver when the brake pedal is rotated to engaged position to lock the rear wheels against rotational movement. The cam permits withdrawal of the brake rods from the receiver openings when the foot pedal is rotated to the disengaged position. The foot pedal is provided with stops to limit rotation of the foot pedal beyond the engaged and disengaged positions. The strollers uses a frame with a pair of substantially straight horizontal base frame tubes which are each rotatably connected to the rear axle by a connector having a transverse tubular portion which rotatably receives the rear axle.
