A child safety seat includes a seat shell having at least one sidewall, a buffering part connected with the seat shell, the buffering part being movable between a first position corresponding to a stowed state where the buffering part is retracted toward the sidewall and a second position corresponding to a deployed state where the buffering part protrudes sideways from the sidewall, a retaining mechanism configured to hold the buffering part in the first position via a magnetic force, and a release mechanism operatively connected with the retaining mechanism, the release mechanism being operable to release the buffering part from the hold of the retaining mechanism for movement of the buffering part from the first position to the second position.

The present invention relates to an anti-abandonment system comprising: a first sensor (2) associable with a restraining device (R) placed in the vehicle, a second sensor (3) associable with a fastening tab or with a fastening buckle of a safety belt of the vehicle. The anti-abandonment system comprises a control unit connected to the first and second sensors and configured to perform a control procedure comprising the steps of: determining, as a function of the signal emitted by the first sensor, the presence of a child and/or an infant on the restraining device; determining, as a function of the signal emitted by the second sensor, a fastened or unfastened condition of the safety belt, defining an alarm condition in the event that the control unit determines the presence of a child and/or an infant on the restraining device and at the same time the unfastened condition of the safety belt. The present invention also regards a process for warning of a potentially hazardous situation relative to the presence of an infant/child inside a vehicle.

An infant car seat includes a seat main body having a handle mount, a canopy unit operable to positionally cover the seat main body, and a handle mounted to the handle mount of the seat main body. The handle is rotatable relative to the handle mount about a mounting axis, and is operably connected to the canopy unit so that rotation of the handle relative to the handle mount drives the canopy unit to move relative to the seat main body.

Disclosed herein is a rotatable car seat comprised of a base and a shell. The base includes a receiving portion and a backing portion. The seat shell includes a seat back and a seat bottom having a lower portion. The seat bottom is convex and interfaces with the receiving portion of the base. The seat shell is rotatable with respect to the base. The seat shell is selectively positionable between a plurality of orientations. Additionally provided are a features that allow for the effective use of a rotatable car seat.

A child safety seat comprising a base and a body rotatably connected to the base for providing a seating space. The base is rotatably connected to the body via a rotating shaft. The child safety seat further comprises an electrical pivoting structure including a base pivoting member for electrically connecting to a base electrical device in the base, and a body pivoting member for electrically connecting to a body electrical device in the body. The base pivoting member is coupled to the base and has a base conductive part. The body pivoting member is coupled to the body and has a body conductive part. The base conductive part and the body conductive part are rotatably and electrically connected in the rotating shaft. The base electrical device and the body electrical device are electrically connected to each other via electrical connection of the base conductive part and the body conductive part.

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 lateral shock absorber includes a protective fender pivoted to a base of a child car safety seat and a locking mechanism disposed on the base. The protective fender is pivotally switchable between a folded state or an unfolded state. The locking mechanism is for selectively engaging with the protective fender to restrain the protective fender from switching to the unfolded state or disengaging from the protective fender to allow the protective fender to switch to the unfolded state when the protective fender is located in the folded state. The locking mechanism includes a locking assembly, an abutting component and an abutting block connected to the abutting component. The locking assembly engages with the protective fender to restrain the protective fender from moving, and the abutting component is driven by the abutting block to disengage the locking assembly from the protective fender when the abutting block is pressed downwardly.

The invention is related to a buckle housing (1; 1′) for a safety belt in a child safety seat. The buckle housing (1; 1′) comprises a recess (2; 2′) adapted to receive a tongue (3; 3′) of the safety belt, a magnet (4; 4′) 5 arranged within the housing (1; 1′) to be movable between a first position (P1) and a second position (P2) thereof, and a magnet sensor (5; 5′) arranged in the housing (1, 1′) and adapted to detect when the magnet (4, 4′) is in the second position (P2). The invention also relates to a method for indicating the presence of a tongue (3; 3′) in a belt buckle housing (1; 1′).

A carrier for infants and young children with an improved sliding mechanism, which includes a carrier body, a rail member, a sliding member, a guide sliding member, and a positioning member. The rail member is disposed on the carrier body. The sliding member is connected to the rail member and is capable of sliding linearly. The sliding member is in rolling contact with the guide sliding member when sliding linearly with respect to the rail member. The positioning member is configured to fix a position of the sliding member after the sliding member slides linearly with respect to the rail member.

A car seat swivel assembly includes a base bracket that can be secured to a vehicle seat and a pivot bracket that is attachable to the base bracket. A chair bracket is provided which is attached to a child car seat. A pair of hinge units is each attached to the chair bracket. Each of the hinge units releasably engages the primary portion of the pivot bracket and the pivot bracket when the chair bracket is in a home position to retain the child car seat in a seated position. The chair bracket is pivotable into a pivoted position on the pivot bracket when a respective one of the hinge units is actuated into an unlocking condition. In this way the hinge units facilitate the child car seat to be directed toward a door of a vehicle thereby facilitating a child to be positioned in the child car seat.
