Abstract
A stroller has a break-away basket situated underneath the stroller seat or backrest. The basket has a frame pivotally mounted to the stroller frame, pivotal between a normally closed position to a lowered, open position. This is accomplished by pivoting one end of the basket frame downward to enlarge the basket access opening areas. When the basket is in the normal position, a pair of basket frame legs abut a corresponding pair of stops mounted on the stroller frame. The stops basically prevent the basket from pivoting downward. Forcing the basket frame legs past the stops lowers the basket. The basket may be restored to its normal position by forcing the basket frame legs back past the stops to their original position.
