ABSTRACT:
A transporter which can be used as an infant car seat or carrier has a body shell with a curved lower surface for use as a rocker and wheels which can be extended for use as a stroller. The wheels are carried on legs which can be retracted into opposed side cheeks by means of respective drive belts. A handle25is secured to inner members55to slide within tubular arms23which are pivotally secured to the side cheeks. The inner members are connected by pivotal links to the respective drive belts so that extending or retracting the handle rotates the belts to extend or retract the wheels. Release mechanisms at opposite ends of the handle25lock the arms in the retracted position so that the handle can be used to carry the transporter with the wheels retracted. A release handle31operates spring-loaded pins to lock the arms23in the carrying or pushing positions.
