Abstract

A recline latch system for a collapsible stroller having a frame and a reclineable passenger support movable between at least one up position and a down position. The recline latch system includes a plate member connected to the frame for retaining the passenger support in the up position, a slidable member connected to the passenger support, wherein the slidable member is slidable between an engaged position and a disengaged position, and an engagement portion disposed on the slidable member, wherein the engagement portion is adapted to cooperate with the plate member when the slidable member is in the engaged position. The recline latch system preferably provides single-handed operation, multi-positional settings for the passenger support, and automatic disengagement while collapsing of the stroller.
