Chazon Ish OC 52:6 holds that it is permitted to open and close the roof of a baby carriage and it isn't considered like creating an ohel to protect from the sun.

  1. Some poskim, including Rav Moshe Feinstein,[1] hold that the hood needs to be opened one Tefach (approx. 3.75 inches) prior to Shabbos. However, other Poskim, including Chazon Ish,[2] permitted it no matter what, claiming that there is no issue of Assiyas Ohel (making a covering) since it is all attached from before Shabbos.
    1. A normal umbrella that is attached to a stroller may not be opened on Shabbat. This is true even for the lenient opinion who permits opening a stroller hood.[3]
  2. Once the hood is open it is permitted to add a temporary additional roof, such as a rain cover or a blanket. One should start to add to that roof from the side which is already covered (by the hood).[4] There is a question whether it is permitted to add the raincover or blanket if they're not at the same height as the hood. When they're at the same height they are permitted since they extend the original ohel. If it is more than 3 tefachim away, either vertically or laterally, it is certainly forbidden to add the rain cover or blanket.[5]
    1. It is permitted to add a rain cover on Shabbat even if the hood was opened on Shabbat.[6]
  3. If there is a stroller hood which was open a tefach, it is permitted to open it further on Shabbat.[7]

Rav Schachter (Highlights of Melachos Shabbat Part 2, min 61) noted this dispute between the Chazon Ish and Rav Moshe and seemed to prefer the Chazon Ish.
