Claim:
A stroller adapted to be connected with a car seat, the car seat including a retaining member, said stroller comprising: a stroller frame having a pair of lateral members; a footrest disposed rotatably between said lateral members and having a coupling portion; and a locking device disposed between said footrest and one of said lateral members and operable to allow for an adjustment to an angle of said footrest with respect to said lateral members, said locking device including an angle-limiting mechanism and a pushbutton operable to allow said footrest to be pivoted relative to said lateral members to a selected one of a first angular position and a second angular position, said angle-limiting mechanism locking said footrest at the selected one of said first and second angular positions when said pushbutton is released, said coupling portion of said footrest being adapted to engage the retaining member when said footrest is disposed at said first angular position, wherein said angle-limiting mechanism includes: a first pivot member connected to one of said footrest and the one of said lateral members, a second pivot member connected to the other of said footrest and the one of said lateral members and connected rotatably to said first pivot member, a positioning member disposed between said first and second pivot members for locking said first pivot member relative to said second pivot members at a selected one of a first locking position where said footrest is disposed at said first angular position, and a second locking position where said footrest is disposed at said second angular position, and a resilient member for biasing said footrest to be locked relative to said lateral members, said pushbutton being disposed at an axial end of said angle-limiting mechanism and operable to apply an axial force to said resilient member so as to release said footrest from said lateral members, and wherein said second pivot member includes a pivot shaft extending toward said first pivot member and permitting said positioning member to be sleeved movably on said pivot shaft, said resilient member being disposed between said positioning member and said second pivot member, said positioning member having a first engaging groove and a second engaging groove, said first pivot member being formed with an engaging block engageable with a selected one of said first and second engaging grooves, said engaging block engaging said first engaging groove when said first pivot member is disposed at said first locking position, said engaging block engaging said second engaging groove when said first pivot member is disposed at said second locking position.
