The invention relates to a child seat for attaching to a motor vehicle seat, comprising an impact shield, wherein the impact shield is prevented from being dismantled from a main body in at least a first configuration and/or in at least a first state of use of the child seat and/or is prevented from being partially or at least fully mounted on a/the main body in at least a second configuration and/or in at least a second state of use of the child seat, and/or wherein possibilities for configuring and/or installing the child seat are dependent on the fastened state of the impact shield.

The invention relates to a method for treating fibres, to an installation for treating fibres and thus obtained tape made of treated fibres. The treatment method comprises the steps of continuously supplying a bundle of fibres (1), applying a first resin (51) to the bundle of fibres (1) by electrostatic deposition of particles of the first resin (51), bonding the particles of the first resin (51) to the bundle of fibres (1) by heating, and applying a surface coating to at least one side of the bundle of fibres (1) by depositing filaments of a second resin (91), such that the thus obtained tape made of fibres has a minimum resin load in relation to the fibre used.

A car seat system for automatically displacing the movable components of the car seat. The car seat including sensors and a computing module to detect the measurements of a child placed in the car seat. The car seat system determines the current position of the movable components and displaces the movable components automatically based on the child's measurements or a desired amount. The car seat system automatically learns child's behaviors when the child is placed in the car seat. The car seat system learns schedules utilized by the child, routes taken by the driver of the car, and other data over a period of time. The behavioral, scheduling, routing, and other data obtained is stored by the car seat system and utilized to enhance the safety and comfortability of the child during a car ride. The car seat system also determines thickness of clothing worn by the child while placed in the car seat and adjusts the shoulder belts to accommodate for the clothing while providing a snug fit of the shoulder belts that fall within safety recommendations. The car seat also auto reclines to a desired angle and also rotates about itself to face the door. The car seat system includes an auto-incident detection mode. In this mode, the system detects an incident, such as an accident, hard braking, or another hazard, and automatically displaces the features in the car seat to make the car seat secure during the crash minimizing the effect of the incident on the child. The car seat also includes pretensioners and motors to release, pull back, and lock the car seat belts.

A support platform for a child car seat includes a carrier base configured to support a child car seat and a load leg pivotally attached to the carrier base about a hinge point to allow angular displacement between the load leg and the carrier base. The load leg includes a leg member having a first end pivotally connected to the carrier base at the hinge point, and a foot extending from a second end of the leg member and having a bottom surface configured to frictionally engage a floor of the vehicle at a contact point defined along the foot. A leg axis through the hinge point of the load leg and the contact point of the foot defines a load leg angle of between substantially 10° and substantially 25° relative to an axis extending substantially perpendicular to the floor of the vehicle.

A child safety seat comprising a seat body and first and second side wings depending from the seat body, the first and second side wings each comprising an outwardly facing exterior surface, an impact energy absorbing device depending from at least a part of the exterior surface of the first and second side wings, the impact energy absorbing device comprising a hollow and/or gas, liquid, gel or other energy absorbing material filled shell of deformable material formed by blow moulding, comprising an outwardly facing surface and an inwardly or occupant facing surface, and a plurality of energy absorbing elements in the form of recesses extending into the shell from the inwardly facing surface toward the outwardly facing surface: wherein the impact absorbing system is adapted to absorb impact through a combination of the shell plastically or elastically deforming, cushioning, rupturing, deflating or bursting, and the plurality of energy absorbing elements cooperatively plastically or elastically deforming, cushioning or crushing, as a result of the impact.

An extendible protective element for use in a child safety seat is disclosed. The extendible protective element comprises a first thread component comprising a first external thread and a first internal thread, and a second thread component comprising a second external thread, wherein the first thread component is rotatably connected to the second thread component via the first internal thread of the first thread component and the second external thread of the second thread component.

The invention relates to a child seat for attaching to a motor vehicle seat, comprising an impact shield, wherein the impact shield is prevented from being dismantled from a main body in at least a first configuration and/or in at least a first state of use of the child seat and/or is prevented from being partially or at least fully mounted on a/the main body in at least a second configuration and/or in at least a second state of use of the child seat, and/or wherein possibilities for configuring and/or installing the child seat are dependent on the fastened state of the impact shield.

A convertible child safety seat may include a body configured to support an occupant, a base portion operably coupled to the body to support the body where the base portion is configured to be disposed on a vehicle seat base of a vehicle seat in either a forward facing configuration or a rearward facing configuration, and a multi-position anti-rebound bar. The anti-rebound bar may be operably coupled to the base portion or the body such that the anti-rebound bar is pivotable between at least a first position to provide a first function in the rearward facing configuration and a second position to provide a second function different than the first function in the forward facing configuration.

A base for a child car seat includes a seat base body configured to support a child carrier. The seat base body has a belt channel configured to receive a vehicle seat belt to retain the seat bas body against a vehicle seat. The base for a child car seat further includes a latch connector arm having a proximal end pivotally connected to the seat base body and a distal end configured to attach to a rigid anchor of the vehicle seat. The latch connector is rotatable between a stowed position and an attachment position. In the stowed position, the latch connector arm is located such that the vehicle seat belt may extend through the belt channel and connect to a buckle of the vehicle seat without contacting the latch connector arm.

The present disclosure relates to a portable car seat comprising a backrest part, and a seat part rotating to be positioned at a front side or a rear side of the backrest part, wherein the backrest part includes an aluminum frame.
