ABSTRACT:
A device for use in conjunction with strollers for securely connecting single strollers together, allowing two or more children, to be safely and effectively transported. The stroller connecting device(s) are easily detachable. The apparatus comprises an adjustable supporting member with a clamping, or other fastening, mechanism at each end. The clamping mechanisms, generally, have two jaws, rotatably connected to one another to grasp and lock a stroller shaft. The fastening mechanism preferably fastens securely onto the shafts of the strollers, providing stable operation during movement. Each jaw, of the fastening mechanism, receives and firmly grasps one shaft of the stroller. The support is preferably comprised of two tubes, with the relative position of the tubes to one another being adjustable, and thus, allowing the distance from one stroller to the other to be variable. Together, the supporting member and fastening mechanisms allow the connecting apparatus to securely, safely and rigidly connect two or more strollers. The stroller connecting devices are generally placed in two of three locations on the shafts of each stroller. Usually, two connecting devices are sufficient to provide the necessary control and stability.
