BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A. Field of the Invention
This relates to baby strollers in general and, in particular, using a folding portable table attached directly to the stroller frame. The stroller table will be flat and secured with a set of legs by which the table may be rotated and supported by a pair of legs.
B. Prior Art
There are many other prior art references to baby strollers in general. A representative example includes Hsiao, U.S. Pat. No. 5,375,869, which is a structure for a versatile baby stroller. However, it does not have a foldable table. Another example can be found at Marteeny, U.S. Pat. No. 5,299,336, which is a diaper-changing station. Another example can be found at Duboulat, U.S. Pat. No. 5,857,740. None of the prior references, however, have the same structure or the same features as the current application.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This is a baby stroller, which has the added capacity of a portable foldable table on the rear of the stroller frame to provide additional usable space. The table will be comprised of a flat surface and a set of legs that are hinged to the underside of the table. The table is secured to the stroller frame probably by use of a rivet or pin, which allows the table to rotate for use.
When the table is rotated to be used, a pair of legs on the underside of the table surface will provide a means by which the table may be secured to the ground surface. A safety strap on the top surface of the table is also provided as an additional safety precaution.
As stated before the table is connected on one end of the stroller most likely by a pin or rivet. Additionally, like many baby strollers, it will have a basket on the bottom, which will be used for storage of various items. When the table is folded against the stroller, the basket will be enclosed on three sides.



BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG. 1 is an isometric view of the device in use.
FIG. 2 is an isometric view of the device with the table folded against the stroller.
FIG. 3 is a fragmented side view of the stroller with the table flush against the stroller frame.
FIG. 4 is a fragmented side view of the device with the table extended and deployed.



DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
This is a baby stroller 5 with certain unique characteristics. It will have a basic stroller configuration, including the seat 15 and a canopy 10. FIG. 1,2
It will be supported by a set of wheels that are commonly found and are not being claimed in this application. On the bottom, beneath the seat structure of the stroller will be a basket, which will have a bottom 17, two sides 18, as well as a front and a back. The basket will be supported by the wheels, which are used for the stroller.
On the back portion of the stroller frame will be a table 20. This table 20 will be secured on one end to the stroller frame probably by a pin 43, which connects one end of the table to the frame of the stroller. The specific means of connection may vary but the means must allow the table to rotate.
The table 20 itself should be durable and constructed of material to withstand exposure to the elements and support the weight of a small child. A safety strap 25 will be provided on the top surface of the table 20 in the event the user of the stroller needs to secure an infant.
On one end of the table on the underside will be two legs 40, which fold against the underside of the table surface. FIG. 1,3 The legs are hinged, using hinge brackets 30 and arcuate clamps 35, which secures the table 20 to the member 16 of the frame of the basket. The arcuate clamp 35 secures the table structure to the member 16 of the frame structures, which connects the back wheels. The leg supports 41 for the table will be provided on one end of the device.
When folded against the back of the stroller, the table will fold flush with the back of the stroller as depicted in FIG. 3. FIG. 4 depicts the table deployed.
While the embodiments of the invention have been disclosed, certain modifications may be made by those skilled in the art to modify the invention without departing from the spirit of the invention.
