Definitions
- the child's head may be kept safe, stable and in an upright position should there be a sudden stoppage, collision or braking, and especially when the child falls asleep.
- the secured position need not be directly aligned with the pivots 170, which is described as position B.
- the pivots 170 may define any number of positions along an arc between a vertical position A and the horizontal position B.
- the cross support 160 may be moved to a third position between the vertical position A and the horizontal position B to accommodate a taller child.
- the cross support may be moved to a third position past the horizontal position B to accommodate a shorter child.
- the pivots 170 include a maximum position, E, provided as a safety mechanism to prevent the head restraint system 150 from closing too far on the child.
- FIG. 4 is a schematic top view of one embodiment of a car seat 400 having a mechanized head restraint system 450 according to the present invention.
- the mechanized head restraint system 450 includes a cross support 460 extending horizontally across the child seat 400 at a vertical position that substantially aligns with the child's temple or forehead.
- the cross support 460 may be formed of a semi-flexible material encased in cushion and/or felt and include any material or combinations of materials as described above.
- Fastening clips 580 may be formed as alligator clips or clothespin clips, further supported with VELCRO or like material, with sufficient force and rigidity to fasten the head restraint system 550 to a car seat. In this manner, the head restraint system may be utilized on a plurality of car seats or used to provide support for some other seat for the child.
- FIG. 10 illustrates the use of clamping arm 900 on the side wall 1200 of a child seat.
- fastener 920 is coupled to the side wall 1200 of the child seat.
- Slots 960 have received pins 970 to form the appropriate length of clamp arm 900.
- joint 985 may be actuated to bring a flexible, or semi-flexible support 990 in place in front of a child's forehead.
- joint 985 is illustrated in FIG. 10 as a saddle joint, it will be understood that any type of suitable joint may used to connect support 990 to clamp arm 900 including ball and socket, hinge or other suitable joints.
- FIG. 12 illustrates a head restraint device 1000 including a character cushion 1010.
- Character cushion 1010 may be formed as a plush or stuffed animal and may function as the support for the child's head. In at least some examples, character cushion 1010 may be sewn from cloth, plush, or other textiles, and stuffed with straw, beans, beads, plastic pellets, cotton, synthetic fibers, or other similar material to form a soft support for a child's head. As seen in FIG. 12, character cushion 1010 may take the appearance of a stuffed animal to provide a friendly and playful travel companion for the child. In contrast to prior art devices, character cushion 1010 calms a child and makes use of the head restraint device 1000 less frightening and less intimidating for a child or infant.
- the head restraint system may be used on airplanes, trains, adult passenger seats, strollers, child passenger bicycle seats, rollercoasters or any such transportation medium where an individual might fall asleep and need gentle head support.
