A child safety seat includes a shell having a seat portion and a backrest, and a seat board assembled with the shell, the seat board being disposed on the seat portion so that a child placed in the child safety seat sits on the seat board, the seat board being slidable relative to the shell toward or away from the backrest. The seat board can be thereby configurable as an extension member that is movable relative to the shell for adjusting a leg room for a child sitting on the seat board.

A child restraint spin lock is adapted to be installed in a safety seat that includes a base member and a mid base being rotatable relative to the base member about an axis. The child restraint spin lock includes two locking components and a pivot component. The locking components are adapted to be co-rotatably connected to the mid base, are spaced apart from each other, and are adapted to be movable relative to the base member between a locked position and an unlocked position. The pivot component is adapted to be rotatable relative to the mid base about the axis, and is pivotally connected between the locking components such that movements of the locking components are synchronized by rotation of the pivot component.

A child safety seat or a baby carrier for mounting on a motor vehicle seat, particularly a motor vehicle side seat, has a seat tray and a side impact bar mounted thereon which can be moved from a rest position located in particular within a standard width to a functional position located in particular outside thereof, and vice versa, wherein the side impact bar is positioned in particular on both sides of the seat tray so as to transmit any lateral forces behind the back of a child sitting in the child safety seat and to direct said lateral forces into the seat tray. A side impact bar is used with and mounted on the child safety seat or baby carrier.

A child restraint base adapted for a child restraint carrier includes a base body for mounting the child restraint carrier, a first panel component, a second panel component, an anchor belt and a third panel component. The first panel component and the second panel component are disposed on the base body and spaced from each other. A first through slot is formed between the first panel component and the base body. A second through slot is formed between the second panel component and the base body. The anchor belt passes through the first through slot and the second through slot and is slidable between an in-use position and a stored position. The third panel component is disposed between the first panel component and the second panel component and pivotable between an opened position and a closed position for tensioning the anchor belt to remove slack from the anchor belt.

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).

A child safety seat (1) for a vehicle, the child safety seat (1) comprises a seat body (2) and a frame (3) which is removably secured to or securable onto an existing vehicle seat (VS) in a rearward configuration, the seat body (2) comprising a back portion (20) and a seat portion (21), the frame (3) being pivotably attached to the back portion (20) of the seat body (2) such that, in use, the seat body (2) is arranged to pivot about the pivotable attachment to the frame (3) during a vehicular accident.

A bench seat assembly that includes a first seat that includes a seat portion and a back, a second seat that includes a seat portion and a back, and a center portion positioned between the first and second seats. The first seat is bifurcated by a first vertical plane, the second seat is bifurcated by a second vertical plane, and the center portion is bifurcated by a center vertical plane. The first seat is angled outwardly such that the first plane defines a first acute angle with the center plane and the second seat is angled outwardly such that the second plane defines a second acute angle with the center plane. The first acute angle and the second acute angle are approximately the same.

A seat adjustment structure for adjusting a relative position between a seat and a base carrying the seat is provided. The seat adjustment structure is slidable with respect to the base along a longitudinal centerline, and includes: a pair of engaging members, fixed to one of the base or the seat with respect to the longitudinal centerline; a locking assembly, fixed to the other of the base or the seat, the locking assembly lockable to or unlockable from the engaging member; an operating member movable with respect to the seat along a vertical direction; and a cable, connecting the operating member and the locking assembly, and arranged to transmit a vertical movement of the operating member to the locking assembly, thereby causing the locking assembly to be locked or unlocked with respect to the engaging member to lock or unlock the base with respect to the seat.

A child restraint includes a seat base adapted to rest on a vehicle seat and a juvenile seat adapted to couple to the seat base. The seat base includes a seat-base foundation configured to support the juvenile seat and a tether strap coupled to an upper end of the seat-base foundation and adapted to be fixed to a tether-strap anchor coupled to the vehicle seat.

A car seat configured to be fastened to a vehicle, includes a seat shell and a belt guide disposed at the seat shell to redirect a belt set of the vehicle for rerouting the belt set along a deviation path from an original path. When the belt set is not engaged with the belt guide, the belt set is routed along the original path. When the belt set is engaged with the belt guide, the belt set is routed along the deviation path from the original path. The rerouted belt set improves the symmetry of forces encountered by the vehicle and also improves the kinetics of the car seat during a crash. A break-away feature in the belt guide advantageously absorbs forces at different times during a crash.
