20090001791 | Latch Mechanism for a Child Car Seat - A latching mechanism for a car seat that is mountable on a separable base member provides a positive locking of the car seat to the base member. The latch mechanism has a member that is positioned in the seat portion of the car seat to pivot upwardly when the latch mechanism is disengaged. The seating of a child on the seat portion requires the latch mechanism to be retracted into the seat portion, which corresponds to the locking of the latch mechanism. The latch mechanism includes four helical spools rotated by the pivotal movement of the latch lever to cause linear movement of the locking pins into engagement with the base member. A latch indicator has a pre-latch sensor that indicates proper positioning of the seat member and a latch sensor that indicates an engagement of the locking pins. An indicator light illuminates when the seat member is properly latched. | 01-01-2009 |
20090113625 | Play Yard with Motorized Swinging Bassinet - A bassinet for mounting on a play yard frame is supported to provide a swinging movement of the bassinet relative to the play yard. The bassinet is suspended from four detachable connector mounts that slide over the upper frame member of the play yard frame by three flexible support members and a single rigid support member that is operatively connected to a motor housed within a motorized connector mount to drive the swinging motion for the bassinet. The movement induced into the bassinet is controlled by the four support members to keep the bottom surface of the bassinet at a horizontal orientation throughout the swinging movement. The bottom board of the play yard is formed in segments which can be reconfigured to fit in the bassinet. The end segment can be folded below the remaining segments, or in the alternative removed, to affect the reconfiguration for the bassinet structure. | 05-07-2009 |
20100007187 | Car Seat Recline Mechanism with Double Acting Actuator - A car seat is constructed with a car seat member on which the child is transported and a separable base member that is mounted to the vehicle seat via the vehicle seat belt or latch anchor which is passed through side openings in the base member and trapped in a belt latch apparatus to secure the base member to the vehicle seat. The car seat member includes a recline actuation linkage formed with two pivotally mounted link members interconnected so that the upward movement of the recline actuator is translated into an intuitive release of the recline mechanism for adjustment of the recline angle of the car seat member relative to the base member. A level indicator is mounted on the car seat member to provide a positive feedback that the proper orientation of the car seat member has been selected for the rear facing configuration. | 01-14-2010 |
20100060052 | Harness Storage System for Child Car Seats - A car seat is formed with a harness storage cavity in the car seat shell for placement of the five-point harness to permit the conversion of the car seat into a belt positioning booster configuration without requiring the harness to be removed from the car seat shell. The headrest and back panel pads on the back rest are removed to provide access to the harness storage cavity which is covered by a hinged door. The harness buckle and the chest clip, still attached to the harness webbing, are placed into the storage cavity and the door closed to provide a flush surface on the seat back so that the child has a smooth supporting surface. The harness webbing projects out of slots to allow the webbing to lie flat beneath the headrest and back panel pads when replaced over the closed door to the storage cavity. | 03-11-2010 |
20100237672 | Reversible Child Car Seat with Separable Base Member - A car seat includes a seat member on which the child is transported and a separable base member that is mounted to the vehicle seat via the vehicle seat belt which is passed through side openings in the base member and trapped in a belt latch apparatus to secure the base member to the vehicle seat. The seat member is mounted on the base member in either a forward-facing orientation or a rear-facing orientation. The base member includes a pair of upper and lower recline slots that receive latch pins securing the seat member to the base member. A recline apparatus carried by the seat member engages a central control rack on the base member to lock the seat member in a selected recline position. In the rear-facing position, the seat member is positionable in different orientations to compensate for the angle at which the vehicle seat is formed. | 09-23-2010 |
20110074193 | Head Rest and Harness Adjustment for Child Car Seat - A car seat includes a vertically adjustable head rest and harness support apparatus that will properly locate the position of the harness relative to the child in response to the positioning of the head rest. The head rest is movable along a curved track to provide horizontal clearance with respect to the vehicle head rest when in a fully raised position. The harness belt is trapped in a length adjustment lock and follows a path that extends around a fixed guide bar at the top of the car seat frame then downwardly through a guide member that directs the belt through an opening in the seat back for engagement with the child. The guide member is supported on a harness control tube that engages a rack device to fix the position of the harness control tube when the position of the head rest is selected. | 03-31-2011 |
20120313413 | Child Safety Seat - A child safety seat includes a seat shell having a backrest portion, a headrest adjustable along a front surface of the backrest portion, a shoulder strap, and a panel assembled at the front surface. The shoulder strap is formed from a webbing material that passes through the front surface and extends at a front side of the backrest portion. The panel can cover a region of the backrest portion that becomes uncovered by the headrest at the front surface as a result of the headrest being adjusted downward. Moreover, the seat can include a transversal bar affixed with the backrest portion, and a latch located below the transversal bar. The latch has a locking structure operable to engage with the backrest portion to hold the headrest in place, the latch being assembled with the headrest about a pivot axis located between the transversal bar and the locking structure. | 12-13-2012 |
