ABSTRACT:
A braking device for a perambulator having a frame and a wheel with at least one recess comprises a disc rotatably mounted to the frame with a brake rod pivotally mounted to the disc and movable with rotation of the disc from a locking position engaging the wheel recess to an unlocking position away from the wheel recess. The disc includes a slot with at least one enlargement through which extends a rod-like actuator having stepped portions. With the disc rods in their locking position, a large diameter portion of the actuator is disposed in the enlargement of the slot to prevent inadvertent rotation of the disc. To unlock the perambulator wheel, the actuator must first be depressed to clear its large diameter portion from the slot enlargement and thereafter the disc can be rotated. The braking device also includes a resilient suspension for the rear wheels formed by plates to which the braking device and an axle for the rear wheels are fixed and which form guides for the brake rods. Springs connect the plates to the perambulator frame to establish a resilient suspension for the rear wheels.
