The invention relates to a child safety seat (100) comprising an integral harness belt (102) for restraining a child in the child safety seat (100), a belt tension monitor (106) adapted for monitoring a belt tension acting on the harness belt (102), a motorized harness belt tensioner (104) comprising a tensioning element (114) driven by an electromechanical actuator (122) and adapted for adjusting the belt tension acting on the harness belt (102), and a controller adapted for controlling the motorized harness belt tensioner (104) to adjust the belt tension to match a first predefined belt tension and for monitoring the resulting belt tension using the belt tension monitor (106).

The invention relates to a child safety seat (100) comprising an integral harness belt (106) for restraining a child in the child safety seat (100), a deflector (102) for the harness belt (106), an elastic mechanism (104) adapted for forcing the deflector (102) from a first position (114) to a second position (112), the harness belt (106) being guided by the deflector (102), wherein due to the guidance by the deflector (102) the harness belt (106) length available for buckling in the child is shorter in the second position (112) than in the first position (114), a latch mechanism transferable between a blocking position and a release position, the latch mechanism being adapted for blocking in the blocking position the deflector (102) against a movement toward the second position (112) and for releasing in the release position the deflector (102) for a movement induced by the forcing toward the second position (112), a release mechanism adapted for transferring the latch mechanism from the blocking position to the release position upon receiving a trigger signal, and a force-transmitting element (116) coupled to a motion element (130), the force-transmitting element (116) being adapted for transmitting a motion force from the motion element (130) to the deflector (102) that acts to force the deflector (102) from the second position (112) to the first position (114).

A child apparatus can include one or more shells/frames upon which a child can sit or lie. All or a portion of each shell/frame can be covered in soft goods. The soft goods component can include one or more channels or tunnels provided along all or a portion of a perimeter of the soft goods component. One or more stiffening members can be inserted into the one or more channels or tunnels. The shell/frame can include one or more cavities for receiving a portion of the stiffening member therein to couple the soft goods component to the shell/frame. Alternatively, the shell/frame can include soft goods retaining tabs along a back or side of the shell/frame, and the elongated stiffening member can be inserted between each soft goods retaining tab and the back or side of the shell/frame.

The present application describes a system and method for converting a natural language query to a standard query using a sequence-to-sequence neural network. As described herein, when a natural language query is receive, the natural language query is converted to a standard query using a sequence-to-sequence model. In some cases, the sequence-to-sequence model is associated with an attention layer. A search using the standard query is performed and various documents may be returned. The documents that result from the search are scored based, at least in part, on a determined conditional entropy of the document. The conditional entropy is determined using the natural language query and the document.

A support base for a child safety seat includes a shell, a belt clamp, a latching mechanism and a belt retaining structure. The shell is adapted to receive a child seat thereon, and has a panel at an end thereof. The belt clamp is pivotally connected with the shell and is disposed adjacent to the panel, the panel rising above the belt clamp, the belt clamp being operable to clamp a lap belt portion of a vehicle safety belt adjacent to a surface of the shell. The latching mechanism is operable to lock the belt clamp in a clamping state. The belt retaining structure is provided on the panel, and is configured to hold a shoulder belt portion of a vehicle safety belt adjacent to the panel.

A child safety seat includes a seat shell having a seat region for receiving a child, two extension parts and a locking mechanism. The two extension parts are respectively disposed at a left and a right side of the seat region, are connected with the seat shell, and are coupled to each other via a linking assembly. The two extension parts are movable together relative to the seat shell to protrude forward from a front of the seat shell or retract toward the seat shell, the two extension parts being disconnected from each other at the front of the seat shell. The locking mechanism is operable to lock the two extension parts in position relative to the seat shell.

A rotatable child safety seat can include a seat base configured to rest on a vehicle seat and a seat shell for receiving a child therein. The seat shell can rotate with respect to the seat base and with a rotation axis offset from a center of the longitudinal axis of the seat base. The seat base can include a seat belt lock-off system for maintaining positioning of the automobile seat belt with respect to the seat base and for adding tension into the automobile seat belt. The child safety seat can include two separate seat belt/LATCH belt pathways. One seat belt/LATCH belt pathway can be provided along the seat back of the seat shell and used when the child safety seat is in a forward-facing configuration and the other seat belt/LATCH belt pathway can be provided in the seat base and used when in a rearward-facing configuration.

The invention relates to a child safety seat (100) comprising a seat base (102) and a seat back (104), the child safety seat (100) being convertible between a backless booster configuration and a highback booster configuration, in the backless booster configuration a first side (106) of the seat back (104) providing the sitting area (114) of the seat and a second side (108) of the seat back (104) being opposite to the seat base (102), the first side (106) being opposite to the second side (108), in the highback booster configuration the seat base (102) providing the sitting area (114) of the seat and the second side of the seat back (104) providing a back rest of the seat.
