Abstract:
1. A baby stroller comprising: an upper strut; a lower strut; a joint fixed to the lower strut and to the upper strut, the joint configured to provide for pivoting of the upper strut thereon, such that said lower strut and said upper strut pivot relative to each other; and a guard housing pivotably disposed on an outer surface of the joint, said guard housing comprising an arcuate guard surface with a linking hole, the upper strut passing through the linking hole, wherein said guard housing forms two walls along two lateral sides of said joint, and guard surface connecting said two walls together; wherein rotation of said upper strut relative to said lower strut causes said guard housing to rotate about said joint to cause said guard surface to continuously obstruct a gap in the joint opposite the lower strut created when an angle is formed between said lower strut and said upper strut when collapsing and extending the baby stroller.
