Abstract:
A seat device for a stroller, comprising:a seat body having two lateral edges extending in a longitudinal direction and spaced apart from each other in a first direction transverse to the longitudinal direction; a safety bar including an elongate middle portion extending in the first direction and having two ends, and two mounting end portions respectively disposed on and bending downwardly from said ends of said middle portion in a second direction transverse to the longitudinal and first directions towards said lateral edges respectively so as to cooperate with said seat body to confine a seating space; and two connecting members, each disposed to interconnect one of said mounting end portions and a respective one of said lateral edges, each of said connecting members including a mounting socket disposed securely relative to a respective one of said lateral edges, and having proximate and distal inner wall surfaces which extend upwardly and in the second direction and which are spaced apart from each other in the first direction to confine an insert groove therebetween, and an outer wall surface which is disposed opposite to said distal inner wall surface and which defines a through slot that extends through said distal inner wall surface in the first direction to communicate with said insert groove, an insert plug disposed on and extending from a respective one of said mounting end portions in the second direction distal to said middle portion, and having proximate and distal insert wall surfaces which are dimensioned such that said insert plug is insertable in the second direction into said insert groove, and a concavity which is formed in a guiding protrusion projecting from said distal insert wall surface and which confronts said through slot when said insert plug is inserted into said insert groove, a lever plate pivoted to said outer wall surface about a fulcrum oriented in the longitudinal direction, and having an engaging end extending into said insert groove to engage said concavity so as to restrain removal of said insert plug from said insert groove, and an actuating end which is disposed opposite to said engaging end relative to said fulcrum in the second direction such that pressing said actuating end towards said outer wall surface will cause said engaging end to turn about the fulcrum and to disengage said concavity, and a biasing member disposed to bias said engaging end to move into said insert groove to engage said concavity.
