[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a child safety seat for a vehicle, which is attached to an original seat of a vehicle and used to safely seat a child in the vehicle.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A child safety seat for an automobile usually has a seat portion and a backrest portion.
Some include eaves that are located above the head of a seated child. The eave-shaped member can be used, for example, as a awning or to darken the child's eyes when the child has fallen asleep.

[0003]

It is desirable that the eaves-like member described above can change its inclination angle. Because, if the eaves-shaped member is made to be able to change the inclination angle, it can be made to function effectively as a sun shade depending on the situation of the sunshine, and it is more effective to darken the eyes when the child sleeps. This is because it becomes easier, and when the child enjoys the scenery outside the vehicle, an inclination angle that does not give a feeling of oppression to the child can be selected. Also,
It is desirable that the mechanism and operation for changing the inclination angle of the eave-shaped member be simpler.

[0004] It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a child safety seat for an automobile having an eave-shaped member capable of satisfying the above-mentioned demands.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to a child safety seat for an automobile having a seat and a backrest, and further comprising an eave-like member located above the head of a seated child. In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the present invention is characterized by having the following configuration.

That is, the eaves-like member is attached to the back of the backrest so as to be rotatable in the front-rear direction at a position behind the center of gravity, and the eaves-like member has a length extending across the back of the backrest. Both ends of the adjustable flexible linear body are attached.

[0007]

In the present invention, the eaves-like member is attached to both sides of the backrest so as to be rotatable in the front-rear direction. it can. At this time, if the length is adjusted so that the flexible linear body crossing the back surface of the backrest portion is in a stretched state, the inclined posture of the eave-shaped member can be substantially fixed. This is because the eaves-like member tends to tilt forward because the eaves-like member is rotatably attached to the backrest at a position behind the center of gravity. Is forbidden by the state of being stretched. Further, by changing the length of the flexible linear body, the eaves-like member can be fixed at an arbitrary inclination angle.

[0008]

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to obtain an automobile child safety seat which can change the inclination angle of the eaves-like member and can be fixed in the changed inclination posture by a simple mechanism and operation. . And according to such an eaves-like member, by changing the inclination angle,
Make the eaves function more effectively as sunshades depending on the sunshine, darken the eyes of sleeping children more effectively, and do not give a feeling of oppression to children enjoying the scenery outside the car State.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a child safety seat 1 for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention from the rear side. FIG.
2 is a perspective view showing the child safety seat 1 for a vehicle shown in FIG. 1 from the front side.

The child safety seat 1 for a vehicle includes a seat 2 and a backrest 3. A base 4 is provided on the lower surface of the seat 2.
Is attached. A pair of head guards 5 are provided so as to protrude forward from both sides of the backrest 3.
A crotch pad 6 is provided so as to rise upward from the seat 2, and a buckle 7 is attached to an upper end of the crotch pad 6. On the other hand, a pair of shoulder belts 8 is provided so as to extend from the backrest 3 to both sides of the seat 2, and these shoulder belts 8 are detachable from the buckle 7.

The child safety seat 1 for an automobile is fixed to the original seat of the automobile by placing the base 4 on the original seat of the automobile and fixing the base 4 with a seat belt provided on the automobile. State. At this time, there are an attachment mode in which the back of the backrest 3 of the child safety seat 1 for an automobile is opposed to a backrest of the original seat of the automobile, and an attachment in which the front of the backrest 3 is opposed.

In the child safety seat 1 for an automobile described above, an eave-shaped member 9 is attached so as to be positioned above the head of a child (not shown) sitting on the vehicle. The eave-shaped member 9 has a shape that is curved in an inverted U-shape as a whole, and, for example, the hook 1 is provided on both sides of the backrest 3.
0 is attached. Therefore, the eave-shaped member 9
Is rotatable in the front-rear direction with respect to the backrest 3.
FIG. 3 shows the child safety seat 1 for a vehicle from the back side, as in FIG. That is, in the state shown in FIG. 3, the eaves-shaped member 9 is more inclined forward than in the state shown in FIG.

The hook 10 described above is located behind the center of gravity of the eave-shaped member 9. Note that “behind the center of gravity” means “behind the center of gravity” when the eaves-shaped member 9 is in a normal inclined posture. Thus, since the hook 10 is located behind the center of gravity of the eaves-shaped member 9, the eaves-shaped member 9 tends to tilt forward. Therefore, in order to adjust the inclination angle of the eaves-shaped member 9 and to fix the eaves-shaped member 9 at the adjusted angle, the eaves-shaped member 9 in the adjusted inclination posture does not further tilt forward. What should I do? Therefore, both ends of the flexible linear body 11 whose length can be adjusted across the back of the backrest 3 are attached to the eaves-like member 9.

As the flexible linear body 11, for example, a string is used. In order to make the length of the flexible linear body 11 adjustable, an intermediate portion of the flexible linear body 11 is bundled so as to form a loop 12, and the flexible linear body 11 is formed at the root of the loop 12. It is selectively gripped. Because of this grip, FIG.
A gripping member 13 as shown in FIG.

Referring to FIG. 4, the gripping member 13 is
4 and a pressing operation unit 15. A through hole 16 is provided in the main body 14, and the flexible linear body 1 is provided in the through hole 16.
One loop 12 is passed. A guide hole 17 for receiving the pressing operation portion 15 is provided in the main body 14 so as to communicate with the through hole 16. The pressing operation unit 15 is provided with a through hole 18 that faces in the same direction as the through hole 16. The pressing operation unit 15 is provided with a compression spring 19 disposed inside the main body 14.
As a result, it is urged to always protrude from the main body 14.

When the pressing operation portion 15 is pressed against the elasticity of the compression spring 19, the through hole 16 of the main body 14 and the through hole 18 of the pressing operation portion 15 are aligned. In this state, the loop 12 of the flexible linear body 11 is passed through the through holes 16 and 18. As described above, while the pressing operation unit 15 is being pressed, the flexible linear body 11 can freely move in the through holes 16 and 18. On the other hand, except for the force pressing the pressing operation unit 15, as shown in FIG.
By the action of the compression spring 19, the pressing operation part 15 is
And the through-hole 16 and the through-hole 18 are shifted from each other. As a result, the flexible linear body 11
Is sandwiched between a part of the peripheral part of the through hole 16 and a part of the peripheral part of the through hole 18, and the gripping member 13
The flexible linear body 11 is gripped at the root of the loop 12. Thus, the effective length of the flexible linear body 11 is fixed.

Therefore, according to this gripping member 13,
By changing the length of the loop 13 while pressing the pressing operation unit 15, the effective length of the flexible linear body 11 can be adjusted.
5 can be fixed by removing the pressure. In the inclined position of the eave-shaped member 9 shown in FIG. 1, the effective length of the flexible linear body 11 is relatively short, and in the state shown in FIG. 3, this effective length is relatively long. In this way, the inclination posture of the eaves-like member 9 is changed to the flexible linear body 1.
1 substantially fixed.

As described above, even if the child safety seat 1 for an automobile is mounted so that the back of the backrest 3 faces the original backrest of the automobile,
Since a gap is usually formed between them, there is no hindrance to the operation on the gripping member 13 and the flexible linear body 11 as described above.

In this embodiment, the eaves-like member 9 is provided with, for example, two openings 20.
0, the translucent sheet 21 is stuck respectively. As the translucent sheet 21, for example, a coarse-textured woven fabric such as a cold gauze is advantageously used. As described above, by forming a part of the eave-shaped member 9 with the translucent sheet 21, it is possible to further reduce the feeling of pressure on the child while blocking ultraviolet rays.

In the above-described embodiment, the hook 10 is used to rotatably attach the eaves-like member 9 to the backrest 3, so that the eaves-like member 9 is attached to the backrest 3.
Can be attached to and detached from. However,
If you don't want these benefits,
The eaves-like member 9 may be rotatably attached to the backrest 3.

In the above-described embodiment, the gripping member 1 is used to fix the adjusted effective length of the flexible linear body 11.
3 was used, but other means, such as a flexible linear body 1
The effective length may be adjusted and fixed by tying 1 directly.
