ABSTRACT:
A superstructure, functioning as the car seat, is retractably telescoped into a base member when the transporter is to be positioned upon the seat of an automobile, the child being strapped within the car seat portion of the superstructure. The transporter is thereafter easily removed from the automobile, and the superstructure is slidably extended from the base member to convert it into a stroller, and is maintained in a first extended position away from the base member by a locking mechanism. The transporter is converted back into a compact car seat, by unlocking the locking device, by applying two discrete motions for safety reasons, to cause the transporter to be collapsed, before insertion back into the automobile. During the collapsing of the transporter, a pair of wheel covers are automatically actuated, to cover the rims of the wheels to prevent any debris picked up by the wheels from being deposited on the car seats, and additionally to stabilize the transporter upon the seat of the automobile. The superstructure and base member are each configured of light weight, non-collapsible, structures in contrast with the collapsible tubular frameworks generally utilized in present day strollers; thus manufacturing costs are reduced.
