A shampoo support apparatus and method for use of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the shampoo support apparatus, a body is configurable between a reclining configuration and a booster seat configuration. In the reclining configuration, the body provides a neck support and a back support. A support structure that may be placed above the body and may be adjustable is configured to accept and secure a smart device thereat and support the smart device at a smart device working distance from the neck support. In the booster seat configuration, the body folds into a rectangular shape to provide a seat.

An integrated changing table assembly includes a pivoting panel associated with a vehicle seatback, the pivoting panel including at least one deployable leg member configured for engaging a vehicle cargo area floor when the pivoting panel is deployed. The pivoting panel may be stowed in a recess defined in the vehicle seatback. Additional features may include a safety strap associated with a topmost surface of the deployed panel and a holder associated with a surface of the pivoting panel.

A modular, deformable, repositionable, cushioned gentle cushioned, resistive infant positioning system and method for use with infants is provided that includes first and second tubular pillows each having two longitudinally-elongated chambers adjoined at a first and second pillow lateral flexure-enabling element, respectively. The second tubular pillow is preferably wider than the first tubular pillow and includes two straps. Methods of using the pillows of the cushioned, resistive infant positioning system are presented that provide positioning, calming, and/or the prevention and/or the correction of head shape deformations.

An adjustment mechanism of nursery equipment includes a string connecting a fixed portion and a movable portion, a reel that is rotatable in both forward and reverse directions and that changes the position or shape of the movable portion by winding up and feeding out the string, a one-way clutch mechanism that allows rotation of the reel in a winding direction of the string and prohibits rotation of the reel in a feeding direction of the string, and an unlock member that unlocks the reel from a rotation prohibited state caused by the one-way clutch mechanism and thus allows the reel to rotate freely

Nursery equipment includes: a body (car seat body); an extended portion (ISOFIX) extended from the car seat body; and an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position or shape of the ISOFIX. The adjustment mechanism includes a string having one end connected to the car seat body and the other end held by the ISOFIX, a reel that is rotatable in both forward and reverse directions and that changes the position or shape of the ISOFIX by winding up and feeding out the string, and a rotation lock mechanism that prohibits rotation of the reel.

An adjustment mechanism of nursery equipment includes a string connecting a fixed portion and a movable portion, a reel that is rotatable in both forward and reverse directions and that changes the position or shape of the movable portion by winding up and feeding out the string, a biasing member that biases the reel in such a way that the reel rotates in a winding direction of the string, and a lock member that prohibits rotation of the reel. A biasing force of the biasing member is selected to be smaller than a biasing force with which the movable portion tends to move downward in the vertical direction.

An adjustment mechanism of nursery equipment includes a string connecting a fixed portion and a movable portion, a reel that is rotatable in both forward and reverse directions and that changes the position or shape of the movable portion by winding up and feeding out the string, a rotation operation member that controls rotation of the reel, a motion transmission portion that transmits a rotational motion of the rotation operation member to the reel, and a motion separation portion that does not transmit the rotational motion of the rotation operation member to the reel.

An infant support pad assembly has a body of resilient material, a generally planar bottom surface and a top surface that is inclined relative to the bottom surface between a proximal end and a distal end of the body such that the infant is in an inclined position when placed on the body. The top surface has an opening in a distal portion of the body and curved surface configured to receive and support at least a portion of an infant's head. The support pad assembly also has a pair of raised side members on either side of the top surface configured to generally maintain the infant on the body and inhibit movement of the infant out of the body. The support pad assembly also has an outer padding to at least partially surround the body to generally maintain the infant on the body.

A balancing aid for a human that is generally U-shaped, having a center portion for a first human to hold on to such that they can provide stability to a second human holding onto a pair of arms extending downward from the center portion.
