Claim:
An infant carrier apparatus comprising: a support frame, including a front leg frame, a rear leg frame and a push handle; and a joint structure, including a coupling socket and an anti-pinch element, wherein the coupling socket includes a pocket having an outer peripheral edge portion and is respectively connected with the front leg frame and the push handle, the anti-pinch element is placed in the pocket between the push handle and the coupling socket, and the push handle is operable to rotate about a pivot axis relative to the coupling socket between a first position corresponding to an unfolded state and a second position corresponding to a folded state; wherein the push handle when rotating from the second position to the first position moves toward the outer peripheral edge portion of the coupling socket through a pinch region that is defined between the push handle and the outer peripheral edge portion and extends to an end of the coupling socket, when the push handle is in the second position the anti-pinch element protrudes beyond an opening of the pocket substantially along a length of the pinch region, and the anti-pinch element is constantly visible from the pinch region and substantially continuously occludes the pinch region when the push handle is driven in rotation from the second position to the first position.
