Abstract
The present invention is a mounting device for a child safety seat. The child seat attaches to a motor vehicle seat through the use of mounting spikes that go through a set of receiver holes in the automobile seat. The mounting spikes connect the safety seat frame to the motor vehicle seat. The mounting spikes have spring-loaded securing latches that secure the child seat to the motor vehicle seat. The child seat will have a release mechanism that will quickly and easily release the mounting spikes from the seat to allow the child safety seat to be removed from the vehicle.
Description
- None
- None
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention is directed to a Rigid Mounting Device for a Child Safety Seat, more particular to one that attaches directly to a seat.
- 2. Background
- Most states have laws that require children below a certain weight or younger than a certain age be placed in an approved child safety seat while riding in a motor vehicle. This requirement has been in place for over twenty years.
- Child seats that are available today are difficult to use and to properly secure to the seat of the motor vehicle. The current systems are cumbersome to use and install.
- Recent safety studies have shown that the addition of a top tether connecting the child seat to the motor vehicle seat is a better restraining system than securing just the bottom of the seat only. All seats being produced right now require that top tether is provided.
- There needs to be a better mounting device to mount child safety seats to motor vehicles seats, a way that is quick but provides a secure and safe connection.

- The current invention is a child safety seat mounting device. The
child seat 1 attaches to a motor vehicle seat 30 through the use of mountingspikes 15 that go through a set of receiver holes 12 in theautomobile seat 10. The mounting spikes 15 connect thesafety seat frame 25 to the motor vehicle seat 30. The mounting spikes 15 have securinglatches 17 that secure the child seat to the motor vehicle seat 30. Thechild seat 1 will have arelease mechanism 22 that will compress the securing latches 17 thereby releasing the mountingspikes 15 from the motor vehicle seat 30. -
FIG. 1 displays thesafety seat frame 25 attaching to the motor vehicle seat 30. The safety seat frame is the frame of achild seat 1.FIG. 2 displays achild seat 1 as it fits on thesafety seat frame 25. WhileFIG. 3 displays a vertical view of the safety seat frame. - The
safety seat frame 25 is rectangular in shape with abase support rectangle 42 with two bottom support bars 40 at the bottom at thebase support rectangle 42 with two arm support bars 45 that are slightly midway up thebase support rectangle 42. The arm support bars 45 and the bottom support bars 40 are at a slightly greater than 90 degree angle from thebase support rectangle 42 and come out the front of thebase support rectangle 42. - The mounting spikes 15 are circular in shape and come out the back of the
base support rectangle 42. In the preferred embodiment there are four mountingspikes 15 evenly spaced on thebase support rectangle 42 for securing thechild seat 1 to the motor vehicle seat 30. -
FIG. 4 displays thesafety seat frame 25 being attached to the motor vehicle seat 30. The mounting spikes 15 fit into the corresponding receiver holes 12. The receiver holes 12 have a diameter that is slightly bigger than the mounting spikes 15.FIG. 5 shows the mountingspikes 15 going into the receiver holes 12. The securing latches 17 compress against the mountingspikes 15 allowing the mountingspikes 15 to go through the receiver holes 12. As shown inFIG. 6 , the securing latches 17 secure thechild seat 1 through thesafety seat frame 25. The flat 19 of the securinglatch 17 secures against the back of the motor vehicle seat 30 securely holding thechild seat 1 in place. - As shown in
FIG. 7 , the securing latches 17 are triangular in shape on a pivot with a tension means such as a spring 51. The tension means 51 apply force to the securing latch away from the mountingspike 15 in an open position. The securinglatch 17 will have a stop 53 that will keep the securinglatch 17 in the mountingspike 15. - To remove the
child seat 1 from the motor vehicle seat 30, in the preferred embodiment there is arelease mechanism 22 attached to thesafety seat frame 25. By compressing therelease mechanism 22 through a use ofpulleys 68,cables 66 and levels will compress the securing latches 17 allowing a user to easily remove thechild seat 1 from the motor vehicle seat 30. The securing latches 17 can also be compressed manually. - The
safety seat frame 25 in the preferred embodiment would be composed of a structurally sound material and light weight material such as aluminum, - The current invention is an improvement over prior art as it is a system and design that rigidly mounts the entire child safety seat including the upper part of the seat back to the vehicle seat. This is important due to the recently developed top tether that has been shown to be a better restraint than securing just the bottom of the seat alone. All seats being produced right now require that top tether; the current invention is the only invention that has a rigid mount that would also mount the top of the seat without the need of the tether.
- Advantages
- Advantages of a rigid mounting device for a child safety seat:
-
- 1. Much faster mounting and dismounting.
- 2. much easier and less frustrating mounting and dismounting
- 3. much more safely and securely mounted
- 4. much less room for user variability in mounting
- 5. eliminates wear and tear on vehicle seat surfaces because child safety seat is actually held off of the seat surface by the rigid mounting system.
