&bgr; Toddler car seat for motor vehicles

8 The invention relates to a small child seat with the features of the upper

9 of claim 1. This is a so-called

&iacgr;&ogr; "Group Zero Seat" for infants who need more lying down

11 than sitting. The seat shell is therefore more like a

12 Seat pan. It can usually be fixed in different swivel positions on the is chassis.

&igr;? Such a mode of transport is called a "re-board system".

20 to be trained so that he can, with the aid of the vehicle's own belt system

23 and offers a high level of transport safety for the child. This task

24 is solved by claim 1. This provides a direct safeguard for both

25 essential parts of the child seat, namely the chassis and the seat pan

26 by safety belts. Claim 2 provides an exact position

27 Possibility of fastening a seat belt.

32 The rear seats of a car may have a three-point belt, which

33 is designed as an automatic belt and has a lap belt part and a

34 shoulder strap part, which in the following description is referred to as

35 lap belt or shoulder belt. The back seats of a car are usually suitable for three people sitting next to each other.

37 Then there is only one lap belt for the person sitting in the middle.

7 Particular attention has been paid to the belt length-saving design, as is reflected in claim 3.

10 Claim 5 ensures that the child seat is securely supported in the event of a crash

11 also on the backrest of the vehicle seat. For this purpose, in this area

12 the chassis must be pulled up sufficiently to prevent any

13 Maintaining the seat position harmful torques in the event of a crash become effective µgr; which remove the child seat from its support on the seat of the vehicle.

15 Remove the seat.

17 Now there are cases in which the length of the vehicle's own belt or

is belt system is not sufficient to wrap around the seat pan.

A special solution is explained below. In this case, however,

20 The shoulder belt is still used to fix the position of the child seat

21. This is what claim 5 is for. According to this, the chassis in the backrest area

22 of the vehicle seat is pulled up so far that a

23 Shoulder belt of a vehicle's own belt system can be effective.

25 In a construction according to claims 6-8, a particularly stable

26 construction. It is particularly useful to secure the

27 Chassis through the shoulder belt through its guided and, if necessary, additional

28 clamped system at the upper, backrest side end of the chassis, especially

29 particularly on its crossbar 14. Claim 10 further ensures that the lap belt of the belt system also has a satisfactory holding force on

31 the chassis. This would not be guaranteed if

32 the support area of the lap belt in use is very close to the gusset

33 between the seat surface and the backrest of the vehicle seat.

35 Claim 11 provides a very safety-effective holder for the seat pan

se is ensured by a safety belt. The direction of the enclosure runs in the

37 essentially horizontal, i.e. in a plane pointing approximately in the direction of travel.

38 In this direction of travel, the belt flanks the seat pan on both sides.

10 large belt section effective for the destruction of deformation energy is available. It should also be taken into account that with such child seats

13. It is particularly important here that in the event of a crash as little deformation energy as possible acts directly on the seat pan.

ie In cases where only a lap belt or a safety belt is used to secure the child seat,

17 a three-point belt of insufficient length is available,

is claim 14 provides a remedy. Here the special belt is part of a seat-

19 belt system. To ensure secure fixation, the design according to

The extensively delimited child insert. The chassis 1 is attached to both the seat

20 surface 4 as well as on the backrest 5 of the vehicle seat 2. The

21 Chassis 1 rests there essentially flat. Chassis 1 and the

22 Seat pan 3 are provided with means for guiding a vehicle seat 2

23 opposite sides. This is used

24 on the one hand, the vehicle’s own belt system in the form of the lap belt 6 and, if applicable,

25 of the shoulder strap 7. However, this does not mean that

26 These two types of belts must be different belts.

27 Rather, the lap belt 6 and the shoulder belt 7 may also be part of

28 a uniform belt system, e.g. a three-point belt also in the form of a

29 automatic belt.

31 The backrest end 8 of the chassis 1 extends from the seat 4 to approximately

32 to the height of the seat pan edge 9 or at least to the height of the fastening
