Brake system for baby or child vehicle
View Patent ↗The disclosure relates to a brake system for a baby or child vehicle, and more particularly, to a brake system for a baby or child vehicle, in which the movement of the vehicle is controlled by locking a brake while an occupant is getting off the vehicle, and automatically releasing the brake in only a case where it is checked that the occupant is getting on the vehicle, thereby preventing a falling accident caused by the movement of the vehicle when the occupant gets on or off the vehicle or while a toddler stands up on the vehicle.
1. A brake system for a baby or child vehicle, comprising
a brake formed in a wheel;
a brake line connected between the brake and a brake operation controller; and
the brake operation controller connected to the brake line and configured to control tension of the brake line to lock and release the brake,
wherein the brake is ordinarily locked and the brake operation controller interworking with a pair of safety bars operate the brake so that the brake is switched over from a locked state to a released state when an occupant gets on the baby or child vehicle and fastens the pair of safety bars, and
wherein the pair of safety bars respectively comprise coupling units to couple with each other when positioned at a rear side of the baby or child vehicle, the coupling units being internally provided with magnets arranged to have opposite poles and coupled and held by the magnets accommodated therein when the pair of safety bar are rotated toward the rear side of the baby or child vehicle and unfastened.
2. The brake system for the baby or child vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein:
the brake operation controller comprises
the pair of safety bars rotatably formed to be opened and closed; and
a tension adjusting unit provided in a rotary shaft of the pair of safety bars and configured to adjust tension of the brake based on rotation of the pair of safety bars, and
the brake comprises
a plurality of brake grooves formed in the wheel; and
a brake guide moving forward or backward based on operation of the brake operation controller and inserted in or separated from one of the plurality of brake grooves formed in the wheel to lock or release the brake.
3. The brake system for the baby or child vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein the tension adjusting unit comprises
a rotary frame coupled to an outer circumference of the rotary shaft of the safety bar and configured to rotate along with the safety bar; and
a brake line holding end formed in the rotary frame and configured to hold the brake line.
4. A brake system for a baby or child vehicle, comprising:
a sensor configured to sense whether a pair of safety bars are fastened;
a controller configured to control a brake to be locked or released based on sensing of the sensor; and
the brake configured to lock or release a wheel under control of the controller,
wherein the brake is ordinarily locked and the controller operates the brake to be switched over from a locked state to a released state when the sensor senses that an occupant gets on the baby or child vehicle and fastens the pair of safety bars, and
wherein the pair of safety bars respectively comprise coupling units to couple with each other when positioned at a rear side of the baby or child vehicle, the coupling units being internally provided with magnets arranged to have opposite poles and coupled and held by the magnets accommodated therein when the pair of safety bar are rotated toward the rear side of the baby or child vehicle and unfastened.
5. The brake system for the baby or child vehicle according to claim 4 , wherein the brake comprises a plurality of brake grooves formed in the wheel; and
a brake guide moving forward and backward to be coupled to or separated from one of the plurality of brake grooves.
