An infant carrier is provide, which includes a frame having a rotating knob at each side, a handle having both ends connected to the respective rotating knobs of the frame, and a connection mechanism mounted at the bottom of the frame. The infant carrier is characterized by a gripping device provided on the handle. The gripping device includes wires and a wire-actuating device for tightening or loosening the wires extending along the length of the handle, entering into the bottom of the frame via the rotating knobs, and extending in the direction towards the connection mechanism. When the wire-actuating device tightens or loosens the wires, the connection mechanism is actuated to move between a first position wherein the connection mechanism is released from the mounting bracket, and a second position wherein the connection mechanism engages the mounting bracket.

1. An infant carrier comprising: a frame having a rotating knob at each side thereof, a handle having both ends connected to the respective rotating knobs of the frame, connection means mounted at the bottom of a frame, and adapted to be removably attached to a mounting bracket of a car seat, wherein a gripping device is provided at an intermediate position of the handle, said gripping device includes wires and wire-actuating means, the wires and the wire-actuating means are connected such that the wire-actuating means is adapted for tightening or loosening the wires, the wires extend along the length of the handle, enter into the bottom of the frame via the rotating knobs, and extend in the direction towards the connection means, connection means is fastened to the wires extending from the gripping device, when the wire-actuating means tightens or loosens the wires, the connection means is actuated to move between a first position wherein the connection means is released from the mounting bracket, and a second position wherein the connection means engages the mounting bracket so that the frame is securely positioned on the mounting bracket. 2. The infant carrier according to claim 1, wherein the wire-actuating means comprises a pressing portion and a pair of actuating plates substantially triangular in shape, each of the actuating plates having a hole at a first corner proximal to an outer edge of the handle, the hole is adapted to be passed through by the wire so that the wire can be attached to the actuating plate, the pair of actuating plates overlap each other at a second corner, and are integrally and pivotally connected to the handle along with the pressing portion. 3. The infant carrier according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the connection means comprises a front latch and a rear latch assembly, the front latch is composed of a sheet material, a portion of the front latch extending beyond the bottom of the frame is arcuate and terminates at a hook at one end, so that the front latch is adapted for latching on a first transverse lever of the mounting bracket, the rear latch assembly comprises a connecting rod and a pair of rear latches provided at both ends of the connecting rod, each of the rear latches is formed of a sheet material and has a concave portion at a lower part thereof to engage a second transverse lever of the mounting bracket, both the front latch and the rear latch assembly are provided with springs such that the front latch and the rear latch assembly is adapted for returning to original positions by action of the restoring force of the springs when the front latch and the rear latch assembly are moved by external forces. 4. The infant carrier according to claim 3, wherein when the handle of the infant carrier is placed at a horizontal position, the wire is under a slack condition and cannot actuate the front latch and rear latch assembly to disengage from the first and second transverse levers of the mounting bracket respectively.
