Protective cover for baby seats

A protective cover (10) is disclosed that can be interchanged among a variety of baby seats. It includes a canopy (11) and a sealing element (22) that can interchangeably and flexibly seal around a variety of baby seats. It may also contain a removable hood (20) that may shield a portion of an insect resistant mesh (15) so that a side mesh (15b) remains open for air and viewing of the occupant under the protective cover (10). Furthermore, the hood (20) may be attached at an approximate midpoint (26) of the canopy (11) to allow versatility in deploying the hood in a rearward direction and fastening the hood with attachment element (38). Likewise, the hood (20) may be folded in a forward direction and attached with attachment element (38) to a forward contour of a baby seat. The protective cover may include a protective foot shield (14) located under the hood (20) that may protect, for instance, feet of an occupant from a stinger or biting proboscis of a flying insect when the feet may touch the inside surfaces of the cover. Another feature of the present invention may include the ability of the present invention to be folded to a reduced state for easy storage and held in the reduced state by an integral restraining element which could be the hood (20). Another feature could be an inclement weather filtering configuration of mesh that could be located on the side to filter light, for instance, to a reduced level for the occupant's comfort.

Baby carrier with enclosure system

A baby carrier with an enclosure system to be worn on the chest of an adult is disclosed. The carrier ensures safety by allowing for the easy attachment and removal of a cover blanket while leaving the baby in the soft seat of the carrier. The carrier consists of a body blanket, a harness, a soft seat, and a cover blanket. The body blanket is a garment that runs between the adult's body and the baby. The harness consists of the waist belt and shoulder straps and is attached to the side of the body blanket facing the adult. The soft seat is attached to the side of the body blanket facing the baby. The cover blanket is a garment that when attached to the body blanket will surround not only the soft seat of the baby carrier but the entire infant including the arms and legs that are usually exposed in baby carriers. To form such an enclosure the cover blanket is connected to the body blanket along the bottom edge and along the two edges running along both sides. The cover blanket may be attached to the body blanket with zippers, snaps or any other attachment. Temperature inside the covering bag may be adjusted by partially closing two-way zippers, which also allow for easy access to the child for the adult. An integral or removable hood may be provided which can be attached in two ways to enable the baby to face toward or away from the adult. There may also be two holes or a slot on the bottom of the body blanket and the cover blanket to allow for their attachment to strollers or car seats when the waist belt and shoulder straps are removed from the body blanket.

RFID buckle closure and presence sensor system for safety childseat

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention a passive, wireless, RFID-based wireless buckle-closure sensor determines whether the buckle of a child safety seat is secured. Sensors also are provided to determine if the child is in the seat, the temperature and if the vehicle is in operation, and alarms are sounded if an unsafe condition is detected by the system. Child safety seats utilize a 3-point or 5-point locking-mechanism for seat belt and harness restraints. The locking-mechanism requires that metal belt / harness components latch together and are released by depression of a lock-mounted release button. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention a passive RF transponder is affixed to the buckle. Essentially the RF transponder comprises an RFID device without a data component. The RF transponder is interrogated by a frequency-scanning reader, which determines the resonant frequency of the transponder. The resonant frequency of the transponder is affected by the presence of the metal fittings local to the RF transponder. Thus, since the major components of the buckle and latch are metal, the detection of the change in the resonant frequency of the transponder, also referred to as “detuning,” permits the determination of the state of the belt / harness buckle—latched or unlatched. This sensing is wireless, unobtrusive, and requires only a passive component be attached to the buckle. Further disclosed is a method of determining the status of a child in a child safety seat, including: whether or not a child is in the seat, whether or not the belt / harness buckle is latched, whether the vehicle's engine is in operation, and whether or not the surrounding temperature exceeds the temperature range. If an unsafe condition is detected, an alarm is activated.
