[0019] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods. It should be noted that, under the premise of no conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form a new embodiment.

[0020] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that directional words, such as the terms "center", "lateral", "longitudinal", "length", "width", "thickness", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "clockwise", "counterclockwise" and the like, indicating directions and positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of narrating the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and should not be understood as limiting the specific scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] The present invention provides a child safety seat with a lighting device, comprising a base 1 and an ISOFIX connection mechanism 2 arranged on the base 1. The ISOFIX connection mechanism 2 is suitable for connecting with an interface on a car seat, so as to fix the child safety seat on the car seat.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the child safety seat also includes a first light-emitting unit 3 and a first switch unit. The first light-emitting unit 3 is arranged on the rear side of the child safety seat so that the installation area of ​​the ISOFIX connection mechanism 2 is illuminated when the first light-emitting unit is illuminated. The first switch unit is used to control the opening and closing of the first light-emitting unit 3.

[0023] It is worth mentioning that the installation area of ​​the ISOFIX connecting mechanism 2 refers to the area where the ISOFIX connecting mechanism 2 is connected to the interface on the car seat. The lighting of this area can help the installer see the interface on the car seat more clearly, so that the installer can quickly align the ISOFIX connecting mechanism 2 with the interface on the car, and can also avoid installation errors.

[0024] The first switch unit includes a magnetic sensitive switch and a magnet (not shown in the figure). When the distance between the magnet and the magnetic sensitive switch is less than a first preset value, the magnet triggers the magnetic sensitive switch, and the magnetic sensitive switch is electrically connected to the first light-emitting unit 3, so that when the magnetic sensitive switch is triggered, the first light-emitting unit 3 forms a path, that is, when the magnetic sensitive switch is not triggered, the first light-emitting unit 3 is open circuit.

[0025] The ISOFIX connecting mechanism 2 includes a fixed part 21 and a movable part 22. The fixed part 21 is installed on the base 1, and the movable part 22 is retractably arranged in the fixed part 21. The movable part 22 includes an interface end for connecting with an interface on a car seat, so that the interface end of the movable part 22 can extend outside the fixed part 21 to connect with the car interface, and can also be retracted into the fixed part 21 for storage.

[0026] In some embodiments, the magnetic sensitive switch and the magnet are respectively arranged on the fixed part 21 and the movable part 22, so that when the extension distance of the movable part 22 is greater than the second preset value, the distance between the magnetic sensitive switch and the magnet is less than the first preset value. The extension of the movable part 22 means that the interface end moves backward. If the extension distance of the movable part 22 does not exceed the second preset value, the distance between the magnetic sensitive switch and the magnet is not less than the first preset value. It is worth mentioning that "the magnetic sensitive switch and the magnet are respectively arranged on the fixed part 21 and the movable part 22" includes the following meanings: the magnetic sensitive switch can be arranged on the movable part 22, and the magnet can be arranged on the fixed part 21; or the magnetic sensitive switch can be arranged on the fixed part 21, and the magnet can be arranged on the movable part 22.

[0027] In other embodiments, the magnetic switch is disposed on the base 1, and the magnet is disposed on the movable part 22, so that when the extension distance of the movable part 22 is greater than the second preset value, the distance between the magnetic switch and the magnet is less than the first preset value.

[0028] In some further embodiments, the magnetic switch is disposed on the movable part 22 and the magnet is disposed on the base 1, so that when the extension distance of the movable part 22 is greater than the second preset value, the distance between the magnetic switch and the magnet is less than the first preset value.

[0029] Considering that the magnetic switch needs to be wired to the first light emitting unit 3 , in order to simplify the connection method, preferably, the magnetic switch is arranged on the fixed part 21 or the base 1 , and the magnet is arranged on the movable part 22 .

[0030] The specific installation positions of the magnetic switch and the magnet, the first preset value and the second preset value can be set by technicians in this field according to actual needs. When the child safety seat is in a standby state, the movable part 22 is completely stored in the fixed part 21. At this time, considering the power saving, it is not desirable for the magnet to trigger the magnetic switch, that is, the distance between the magnet and the magnetic switch is not less than the first preset value; when the child safety seat is in a state where it has been installed, the interface end 2 of the movable part 22 is extended, and a considerable part of the movable part 22 is still stored in the fixed part 21. At this time, it is not desirable for the magnet to trigger the magnetic switch; when installing the child safety seat, most of the movable part 22 is usually extended first, and then the interface end is aligned with the car interface. At this time, it is desirable for the magnet to trigger the magnetic switch, so that the first light-emitting unit 3 emits light, so that the installer can see the interface on the car clearly; when the interface end is connected to the car interface, it is necessary to retract part of the movable part 22, so that the child safety seat is close to the car seat, and it is not desirable for the magnet to trigger the magnetic switch.

[0031] In some embodiments, the magnetic sensitive switch 41 is a reed switch, and the magnet 42 is a permanent magnet.

[0032] The first light emitting unit 3 includes a light emitting member 31 . When the first light emitting unit 3 forms a passage, the light emitting member 31 emits light. In some cases, the first light emitting unit 3 also includes a power source, which is used to supply power to the light emitting member 31 .

[0033] In some embodiments, the light emitting member 31 is disposed on the rear side of the base 1 , so that when the light emitting member 31 is illuminated, it illuminates the installation area of ​​the ISOFIX connection mechanism 2 .

[0034] In other embodiments, the light emitting member 31 is disposed at the rear end of the fixing portion 21 , so that when the light emitting member 31 emits light, it illuminates the installation area of ​​the ISOFIX connection mechanism 2 .

[0035] In other embodiments, the light emitting member 31 is disposed at the rear end of the movable portion 22 , so that when the light emitting member 31 emits light, it illuminates the installation area of ​​the ISOFIX connection mechanism 2 .

[0036] In some embodiments, the child safety seat further includes a support leg (not shown in the figure) foldably arranged at the front end of the base 1, a second light-emitting unit (not shown in the figure) and a second switch unit (not shown in the figure), the second light-emitting unit is arranged at the front end of the base 1 so that the installation area of ​​the support leg can be illuminated when the second light-emitting unit emits light, and the second switch unit is used to control the opening and closing of the second light-emitting unit. Since the lower end of the support leg is usually provided with an in-place prompt mark, the second light-emitting unit can be used to illuminate the prompt mark to facilitate the user to confirm whether the support leg is in place.

[0037] The above-mentioned embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by technicians in this field on the basis of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
