[0064] First embodiment
[0065] See also Figure 1 , showing a perspective view of a child safety seat 1000 provided according to the first embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 and Figure 3 The child safety seat 1000 is shown in side views of different working states. The child safety seat 1000 comprises a base 1 and a seat body 2. The base 1 is used to be installed on a vehicle seat 900 (see FIG. Figure 12 ), the seat body 2 is mounted to the base 1 in a detachable or non-detachable manner, and the seat body 2 is used for a child to sit on. In some embodiments, the inclination angle of the seat body 2 relative to the base 1 can be adjusted to meet the seating needs of the child. In some embodiments, the seat body 2 can pivot relative to the base 1 so that the seat body 2 can have multiple working positions. The multiple working positions include, for example, at least two of a forward position, a rearward position, and a lateral position.
[0066] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, for the child safety seat 1000 in which the seat body 2 has multiple working positions, the directional terms such as "front", "back", "left", and "right" of the seat body 2 are based on the "front", "back", "left", and "right" directions of the child sitting in the seat body 2, and the directional terms such as "front", "back", "left", and "right" of the base 1 are based on the installation of the base 1 to the vehicle seat 900 (see FIG. Figure 12 ) refers to the "front", "rear", "left" and "right" directions of the vehicle when the vehicle is on the vehicle. These directional terms are only used to make the description of the embodiments of the present application clearer and are not used to improperly limit the scope of protection of the present application. Specifically, Figure 2 The seat body 2 is in a forward position relative to the base 1. At this time, the front, back, left, and right directions of the seat body 2 are consistent with the front, back, left, and right directions of the base 1. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The arrows F and B schematically indicate the “front” and “rear” directions of the base 1 , and the arrows L and R schematically indicate the “left” and “right” directions of the base 1 . Figure 3 The seat body 2 is in a rearward position relative to the base 1 , and at this time, the front, rear, left, and right directions of the seat body 2 are opposite to those of the base 1 .
[0067] The structures of the base 1 and the seat body 2 will be described in detail below.
[0068] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 12 The base 1 includes a base shell 10, a support frame 19, and a mounting seat 13. The base shell 10 may include a base 11 and a support portion 12 extending upward from the base 11. The base 11 is used to abut or be placed on the seat surface 91 of the vehicle seat 900, and the support portion 12 is used to abut against the seat back 92 of the vehicle seat 900. In some embodiments, the base shell 10 may include a plurality of hard shells surrounding the outer shape of the base shell 10, and the plurality of hard shells define the internal space of the base shell 10. Figure 1 The plurality of hard shells include, for example, an upper shell 1011 and a lower shell 1012 that generally correspond to the base portion 11, and a front shell 1021 and a rear shell 1022 that generally correspond to the abutment portion 12. The upper shell 1011 and the front shell 1021 correspond to the front surface of the base shell 10, and the lower shell 1012 and the rear shell 1022 correspond to the rear surface of the base shell 10. Of course, in other embodiments, the base shell 10 may have other implementations.
[0069] See also Figure 12 In some embodiments, the front of the base housing 10 may be provided with a clamping groove 1201 and a belt clamp 129, and the belt clamp 129 may be locked in the clamping groove 1201 by a third locking mechanism 215. In some embodiments, when the belt clamp 129 is locked in the clamping groove 1201, the belt clamp 129 may be completely embedded in the clamping groove 1201 without protruding relative to the front of the base housing 10. A clamping member for the vehicle safety belt 93 ( Figure 12 The passage for the vehicle safety belt 93 is shown in dashed lines (not shown). After the vehicle safety belt 93 passes through the passage between the wall of the clamping groove 1201 and the belt clamp 129, the male buckle of the vehicle safety belt 93 is plugged into the female buckle on the vehicle seat 900, and the supporting portion 12 of the base 1 is fastened to the seat back 92. Figure 12 In the illustrated embodiment, the shoulder strap 931 and the lap belt 932 of the vehicle-mounted safety belt 93 pass through the channel between the wall of the clamping groove 1201 and the belt clamp 129 at the same time, but in some alternative embodiments, only the shoulder strap 931 or the lap belt 932 of the vehicle-mounted safety belt 93 may pass through the channel between the wall of the clamping groove 1201 and the belt clamp 129.
[0070] Figure 13The upper housing 1011 is omitted from the illustrated base housing 10 to facilitate illustrating the internal structure of the base housing 10. In some embodiments, the first end of the belt holder 129 is pivotally connected to the base housing 10 via an axis 125, and a third locking mechanism 215 is disposed at the second end of the belt holder 129. The third locking mechanism 215 is used to lock the second end of the belt holder 129 relative to the base housing 10, thereby locking the belt holder 129 in the clamping slot 1201. For example, an exemplary embodiment of the third locking mechanism 215 can be described below with reference to the description of the third locking mechanism 215 in the second embodiment. For example, the third locking mechanism 215 can include an axially movable third locking member configured to engage with a third locking hole in the base housing 10. When the third locking member is separated from the third locking hole, the belt holder 129 can pivot about the axis 125, opening the clamping slot 1201, allowing the vehicle seat belt 93 to be placed into or removed from the clamping slot 1201.
[0071] The support frame 19 is mounted on the base housing 10 and can slide relative to the base housing 10. Figure 11 , the mounting seat 13 is mounted on the support frame 19 and slides synchronously with the support frame 19. The seat body 2 is mounted on the mounting seat 13, and then mounted on the support frame 19. That is, the mounting seat 13 is located between the base 1 and the seat body 2. Therefore, when the support frame 19 slides relative to the base shell 10, the mounting seat 13 and the seat body 2 slide together relative to the base shell 10, thereby changing the inclination angle of the seat body 2 relative to the base 1. It can be understood that when the support frame 19 slides relative to the base shell 10, the support frame 19 moves back and forth relative to the base shell 10 while also pivoting relative to the base shell 10, thereby driving the inclination angle of the seat body 2 relative to the base 1 to change. In some embodiments, the support frame 19 is, for example, mainly composed of a plurality of metal pipes connected by welding, screwing, etc., and the support frame 19 has sufficient structural strength.
[0072] See also Figure 13 and Figure 14 In some embodiments, a sliding track 101 is provided inside the base housing 10 , and the sliding track 101 extends at least in the base portion 11 , and the support frame 19 is slidably engaged with the sliding track 101 . In some embodiments, the sliding track 101 extends in the abutment portion 12 . Figure 13 The upper shell 1011 is omitted from the base shell 10 shown, thereby showing a partial structure of the sliding rail 101 . A portion of the sliding rail 101 located inside the abutting portion 12 is blocked by the front shell 1021 . Figure 14The upper shell 1011 is also omitted in the child safety seat 1000 shown, thereby showing the structure in which the support frame 19 and the slide rail 101 are slidably engaged. The support frame 19 can also enhance the structural strength of the base shell 10.
[0073] See again Figure 4 、 Figure 12 and Figure 13 In some embodiments, the top of the abutting portion 12 of the base housing 10 has a first opening 1203, and the upper end of the support frame 19 extends from the first opening 1203. In some embodiments, a first upper limit member 311 is installed on the upper end of the support frame 19, and the structure of the first upper limit member 311 will be described in detail below. Figures 4 to 12 In some embodiments, a decorative shell 195 may be installed on the upper end of the support frame 19. The decorative shell 195 slides with the first opening 1203 to close the first opening 1203. In addition, the decorative shell 195 covers unnecessary exposed structures on the upper end of the support frame 19.
[0074] Figure 15 FIG1 shows an exemplary structure of the support frame 19. The support frame 19 includes two longitudinal bars 191 and a plurality of cross bars connected between the two longitudinal bars 191, the plurality of cross bars including but not limited to a first cross bar 192 and a second cross bar 193. The support frame 19 mainly slides with the sliding rail 101 through the two longitudinal bars 191. Figure 13 and Figure 14 In some embodiments, at least a portion of the sliding track 101 may be defined by the upper shell 1011 and the lower shell 1012 , and the front shell 1021 and the rear shell 1022 .
[0075] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the sliding track 101 can be formed by an attachment 1013 located within the base housing 10. The attachment 1013 has a slide groove 10130 formed therein, with the longitudinal rod 191 slidably engaging with the slide groove 10130. In other words, the slide groove 10130 forms a portion of the sliding track 101. In some embodiments, the groove wall of the slide groove 10130 can be provided with an elongated hole 10131, and the longitudinal rod 191 can be mounted with a pin 1916 that slidably engages with the elongated hole 10131 to limit the sliding travel of the support frame 19. In some embodiments, the attachment 1013 is mounted to the lower housing 1012 via fasteners, and the notch of the slide groove 10130 is sealed by the lower housing 1012.
[0076] Continue to see Figure 15In some embodiments, each longitudinal rod 191 may be formed by connecting a plurality of rod segments, which can reduce the difficulty of manufacturing the longitudinal rod 191. Each longitudinal rod 191 includes, for example, a first rod segment 1911, a second rod segment 1912, and a third rod segment 1913.
[0077] Each first rod segment 1911 extends from the inside of the base 11 to the inside of the abutment portion 12. The two first rod segments 1911 of the two longitudinal rods 191 are substantially parallel. In some embodiments, each first rod segment 1911 has an arcuate segment 19111, and the sliding track 101 also correspondingly has an arcuate track (not numbered in the figure) that slides with the arcuate segment 19111. The arcuate segment 19111 is, for example, located at the front end of the first rod segment 1911, corresponding to the sliding track in the base 11. The rear end of the first rod segment 1911 has, for example, a straight segment 19112, which extends in the abutment portion 12. The first end of the second rod segment 1912 is plugged into the straight segment 19112, and the second end of the second rod segment 1912 extends toward the top of the abutment portion 12.
[0078] In some embodiments, each second rod segment 1912 has a zigzag shape, such that the distance between the second ends 19122 of the two second rod segments 1912 of the two longitudinal rods 191 is reduced relative to the distance between the first ends thereof. The first end 19131 of each third rod segment 1913 is directly or indirectly connected to the second end of the corresponding second rod segment 1912, and the second end 19132 of each third rod segment 1913 extends from the first opening 1203. The first upper limit member 311 can be connected to the second ends of the two third rod segments 1912, for example, by welding or fasteners.
[0079] In some embodiments, each longitudinal rod 191 may have other embodiments. For example, the second end of each second rod segment 1912 may extend directly from the first opening 1203, and the first upper limit member 311 may be connected to the second end of each second rod segment 1912. In this way, the third rod segment 1913 may be omitted. Alternatively, in some embodiments, each longitudinal rod 191 may be an integrally formed rod.
[0080] See again Figures 4 to 12 , shows an exemplary structure of the mounting seat 13 and an exemplary connection method between the mounting seat 13 and the support frame 19. In some embodiments, the left-right, front-back, and up-and-down movement of the mounting seat 13 relative to the support frame 19 are restricted. In some embodiments, the rotation of the mounting seat 13 relative to the support frame 19 is restricted. The restricted rotation of the mounting seat 13 relative to the support frame 19 can also be considered as the mounting seat 13 and the base shell 10 being non-rotatably connected relative to each other, that is, the mounting seat 13 does not cause the seat body 2 to switch to the forward position or the rearward position by rotating itself relative to the base shell 10.
[0081] See also Figures 4 to 10 In some embodiments, the mounting base 13 includes an upper housing 1301 and a lower housing 1302. The upper housing 1301 and the lower housing 1302 can be connected, for example, by fasteners (not shown). The upper housing 1301 and the lower housing 1302 can define a stepped pivot hole, which is described in detail in the following section "Center Hole 130."
[0082] See also Figure 4 and Figure 12 The front of the base 11 is provided with a second opening 110, and the mounting seat 13 covers the second opening 110. In some embodiments, the size of the mounting seat 13 is designed so that when the mounting seat 13 follows the support frame 19 and slides relative to the base shell 10, the mounting seat 13 remains covered on the periphery of the second opening 110, so as to minimize the exposure of the second opening 110. Figure 9 In some embodiments, the mounting base 13 includes a covering portion 13a covering the second opening 110 and a clamping portion 13b protruding downward from the covering portion 13a, and the clamping portion 13b is smaller than the covering portion 13a.
[0083] See also Figure 11 In some embodiments, the support frame 19 includes two first crossbars 192. The two first crossbars 192 and the two longitudinal bars 191 define a space through which the engaging portion 13b of the mounting seat 13 passes. In some embodiments, the two first crossbars 192 engage with the engaging portion 13b to restrict the forward and backward movement of the mounting seat 13 relative to the support frame 19.
[0084] In some embodiments, the engagement of the clamping portion 13b with the two first cross bars 192 can further restrict the rotation of the mounting base 13 relative to the support frame 19. For example, the surfaces of the clamping portion 13b that engage with the two first cross bars 192 can be designed as flat surfaces. The engagement of the clamping portion 13b with the two first cross bars 192 can restrict the rotation of the mounting base 13 relative to the support frame 19. Of course, there are many other ways to restrict the rotation of the mounting base 13 relative to the support frame 19, such as connecting the mounting base 13 and the support frame 19 together with multiple fasteners, which can be distributed on the two first cross bars 192.
[0085] In some embodiments, the clamping portion 13b can be clamped between the two longitudinal bars 191, thereby limiting the left and right movement of the mounting seat 13 relative to the support frame 19. Of course, there are many ways to limit the left and right movement of the limiting seat 1303 relative to the support frame 19. For example, in some embodiments, two additional longitudinal bars parallel to the longitudinal bars 191 are connected between the two first transverse bars 192. The two additional longitudinal bars are clamped with the clamping portion 13b to limit the left and right movement of the mounting seat 13 relative to the support frame 19. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the mounting seat 13 can be directly or indirectly connected to the axial limiting mechanism 6. The axial limiting mechanism 6 can be clamped between the two longitudinal bars 191 to limit the left and right movement of the mounting seat 13 relative to the support frame 19. In addition, the axial limiting mechanism 6 can cooperate with the clamping portion 13b to form a slot 1304. The two first transverse bars 192 are clamped with the slot 1304. This can not only limit the forward and backward movement of the mounting seat 13 relative to the support frame 19, but also limit the up and down movement of the mounting seat 13 relative to the support frame 19.
[0086] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 、 Figure 11 and Figure 15 The support frame 19 can also be connected to the mounting seat 13 through the fixing seat 196. The connection between the fixing seat 196 and the support frame 19 and the mounting seat 13 can further limit the relative movement and / or relative rotation between the support frame 19 and the mounting seat 13.
[0087] like Figure 4 and Figure 15 As shown, an exemplary structure of the fixing seat 196 is shown. The fixing seat 196 may include a plate body 1961 and an arm body 1962 extending from the plate body 1961. The plate body 1961 abuts against the mounting seat 13. The plate body 1961 and the mounting seat 13 (more specifically, the lower shell 1302) are respectively provided with holes 19610 and holes 13010, and the mounting seat 13 and the support frame 19 can be connected by fasteners passing through the holes 19610 and holes 13010. The arm body 1962 has a hole 19620, which is sleeved on the second cross bar 193 located between the two longitudinal bars 191. The second cross bar 193 is closer to the abutment portion 12 than the first cross bar 192. In some embodiments, the hole 19620 is a non-circular hole so that the arm body 1962 can be sleeved on the second cross bar 193 in a non-rotatable manner. In some embodiments, the front side of the base housing 10 may further be provided with a guide groove 106 that communicates with the second opening 110 and slidably cooperates with the arm 1962 .
[0088] See also Figure 11 and Figure 16In some embodiments, a handle 136 may be provided on the front side of the mounting base 13 , and by operating the handle 136 , the support frame 19 may be pushed to slide relative to the base housing 10 . In some embodiments, the handle 136 protrudes outward from the front side of the mounting base 13 .
[0089] See also Figures 16 to 18 , the sliding position of the support frame 19 relative to the base housing 10 can be locked by the first locking mechanism 131 . Figures 16 to 18 An exemplary structure of the first locking mechanism 131 is shown. The first locking mechanism 131 is mounted to the mounting seat 13 . Figure 16 The upper shell 1301 of the mounting base 13 shown in FIG. 1 is omitted to facilitate illustrating the structure of the first locking mechanism 131 .
[0090] The first locking mechanism 131 includes an axially movable first locking member 1311. The base housing 10 (more specifically, the base 11) is provided with a plurality of first locking holes 1310, which are spaced apart along the sliding direction of the support frame 19. The first locking member 1311 is selectively connected to one of the plurality of first locking holes 1310, thereby positioning the support frame 19 in different sliding positions, thereby positioning the seat body 2 at different tilt angles relative to the base 1. Figure 13 , a plurality of first locking holes 1310 can be provided on the sliding track 101 of the support frame 19. More specifically, a plurality of first locking holes 1310 are provided on the sliding track 101 of the first rod segment 1911 of each longitudinal rod 191.
[0091] See also Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 17 In some embodiments, each first locking hole 1310 is provided on the lower housing 1012. Each first locking hole 1310 forms an angle with the horizontal plane. Figure 16 The first locking mechanism 131 further includes a first release member 1312, which can be mounted on the front side of the mounting base 13. More specifically, the handle 136 can be connected to the mounting base 13 by a fastener (not shown) passing through the hole 13011 of the mounting base 13, and the first release member 1312 can be mounted on the handle 136. The first release member 1312 is connected to the mounting base 13 by a first traction rope 1313 ( Figure 16 The first end of the first locking member 1311 is located inside the mounting base 13 and abuts against the first return spring 1314. The first return spring 1314 is used to push the first locking member 1311 so that the second end of the first locking member 1311 engages with the corresponding first locking hole 1310.
[0092] like Figure 16As shown in FIG, the first release member 1312 is provided on a handle 136, which is provided on the front side of the mounting base 13. As can be seen from the above, when the seat body 2 rotates forward or backward, the mounting base 13 does not rotate with the seat body 2, and the handle 136 always faces forward. In this way, even when the seat body 2 is adjusted to the forward position or the rearward position, the inclination angle of the seat body 2 relative to the base 1 can be conveniently adjusted. This avoids the problem in the related art of disposing the first release member below the front side of the seat body. When the seat body rotates to the rearward position, the front side of the seat body is close to or abuts against the abutment portion, leaving little room for the first release member to operate, making it difficult to adjust the inclination angle of the seat body relative to the base.
[0093] See Figure Figure 17 and Figure 18 When the sliding position of the support frame 19 needs to be adjusted, the user grips the handle 136 while pressing the first release member 1312. The first release member 1312 pulls the first locking member 1311 via the first traction rope 1313, causing the second end of the first locking member 1311 to exit the first locking hole 1310. The user then pulls or pushes the handle 136 to adjust the seat body 2 to a desired tilt angle. The first release member 1312 is then released, and the first locking member 1311, pushed by the first return spring 1314, engages with the corresponding first locking hole 1310, positioning the seat body 2 at the adjusted tilt angle.
[0094] Depend on Figures 16 to 18 As can be seen, in some embodiments, a guide wheel 1103 may be provided in the mounting seat 13 , the guide wheel 1103 is close to the first locking member 1311 , and the first traction rope 1313 is connected to the first locking member 1311 after being passed around the guide wheel 1103 .
[0095] In some embodiments, the longitudinal rod 191 of the support frame 19 is provided with a guide hole 190 , and the first locking member 1311 is slidably engaged with the guide hole 190 .
[0096] See also Figure 19 and Figure 20 The seat body 2 includes a seat portion 21 and a backrest portion 22 extending upward from the seat portion 21. A headrest 23 can be mounted on the backrest portion 22. The seat portion 21 is rotatably mounted to the mounting base 13, so that the seat body 2 can pivot relative to the base 1, thereby having multiple working positions. For ease of understanding, Figure 19 and Figure 20 The base housing 10 of the base 1 is omitted.
[0097] See again Figure 4 and Figure 6In some embodiments, the seat 21 and the mounting base 13 are rotatably connected relative to each other. In some embodiments, the seat 21 includes, for example, a rotation shaft 210, and the mounting base 13 has a central hole 130 (also referred to as a stepped pivot hole above). The central hole 130 can be defined by an upper housing 1301 and a lower housing 1302. The rotation shaft 210 is pivotally received in the central hole 130.
[0098] Continue to see Figure 6 In some embodiments, the seat 21 is mounted with the aforementioned axial limiting mechanism 6. In some embodiments, the axial limiting mechanism 6 can include a sleeve portion 6a and a limiting flange 6b. The sleeve portion 6a can be sleeved onto the rotary shaft 210 and pivotally connected to the center hole 130. The limiting flange 6b is located below the two first cross bars 192 and can abut against the two first cross bars 192.
[0099] See again Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the child safety seat 1000 may further include at least one limiting structure 3. The seat body 2 and the support frame 19 may be connected by at least one limiting structure 3. The limiting structure 3 is used to apply a pulling force to the seat body 2 to prevent the seat body 2 from tipping forward relative to the base 1 when the vehicle brakes unexpectedly, thereby preventing the child from being injured.
[0100] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the limiting structure 3 includes an upper limit structure 32. When the seat body 2 is in the forward position and the vehicle suddenly brakes, the backrest 22 of the seat body 2 is engaged with the support frame 19 through the upper limit structure 31. The upper limit structure 31 pulls the backrest 22 of the seat body 2, which can effectively prevent the seat body 2 from tipping forward relative to the base 1.
[0101] Continue to see Figure 2 In some embodiments, the upper limit structure 32 includes a first upper limit member 311 and a second upper limit member 312. As mentioned above, the first upper limit member 311 can be provided on the upper end of the support frame 19 extending from the abutment portion 12. Figure 11 , the second upper limit member 312 can be provided on the back side of the backrest portion 22. When the seat body 2 is in the forward position, the first upper limit member 311 and the second upper limit member 312 cooperate with each other, for example, with a clearance fit. It should be noted that when the seat body 2 is in the forward position, the first upper limit member 311 and the second upper limit member 312 do not always maintain a contacting connection with each other. As long as the first upper limit member 311 and the second upper limit member 312 contact each other when the seat body 2 tilts forward relative to the base 1, they can apply a backward pulling force to the backrest portion 22 of the seat body 2.
[0102] Continue to see Figure 2 In some embodiments, the first and second limiting members 311, 312 can have hook-shaped cross-sections, interlocking with each other. In some embodiments, the first and second limiting members 311, 312 can both extend along an arc, ensuring sufficient contact area while preventing interference with the rotation of the seat body 2 relative to the base 1. Of course, the first and second limiting members 311, 312 can also have other implementations and are not limited to the examples above.
[0103] refer to Figure 19 and Figure 21 In some embodiments, the child safety seat 1000 may further include a top tether 4. The first end 41 of the top tether 4 is connected to a suitable structure of the base 1, and the second end 42 of the top tether 4 may be provided with an anchor 43, which is used, for example, to connect to an anchor point on the back of the seatback of the vehicle seat 900. In some embodiments, the first end 41 of the top tether 4 may extend into the interior of the base shell 10 and be fixed. More specifically, the first end 41 of the top tether 4 may be connected to a fixing member 114. In some embodiments, the fixing member 114 may be, but is not limited to, fixed to the support frame 19. The top tether 4 may further be provided with an adjuster 45, which is used to adjust the length of the top tether 4.
[0104] Combined with reference Figure 15 and Figure 21 In some embodiments, a support ring 315 is provided on the first upper limit member 311, and the second end 42 of the top tether 4 passes through the support ring 315 when extending upward. That is, the middle part of the top tether 4 is wrapped around the support ring 315. When the vehicle suddenly brakes, the first upper limit member 311 tightens the second upper limit member 312 while the first upper limit member 311 is also tightened by the top tether 4. In this way, the force of the seat body 2 tilting forward can be transmitted to the vehicle seat 900 through the upper limit structure 31 and the top tether 4. In addition, the first upper limit member 311 is simultaneously subjected to two opposite tensile forces, which can offset each other and effectively avoid damage to the first upper limit member 311.
[0105] In some embodiments, the first upper limiting member 311 may include a plate 3111 and a hook 3112 extending forward from an upper end of the plate 3111 , and the support ring 315 may extend from a rear side of the plate 3111 .
[0106] See also Figure 3In some embodiments, the limiting structure 3 may further include a lower limiting structure 32. When the seat body 2 is in the rearward position and the vehicle suddenly brakes, the seat portion 21 of the seat body 2 is engaged with the support frame 19 through the lower limiting structure 32. The lower limiting structure 32 pulls the seat portion 21 of the child seat, which can effectively prevent the seat body 2 from tipping forward relative to the base 1.
[0107] Continue to see Figure 3 In some embodiments, the lower limiting structure 32 includes a first lower limiting member 321 and a second lower limiting member 322. The first lower limiting member 321 can extend from the support frame 19 toward the seat 21. The first lower limiting member 321 passes through the mounting seat 13. The second lower limiting member 322 can be configured to protrude from the back of the seat 21. For example, the second lower limiting member 322 is located on the front side of the back of the seat 21. When the seat body 2 is in the rearward position, the first lower limiting member 321 and the second lower limiting member 322 are matched, for example, with a clearance fit. It should be noted that when the seat body 2 is in the rearward position, the first lower limiting member 321 and the second lower limiting member 322 do not always maintain a contacting connection with each other. The first lower limiting member 321 and the second lower limiting member 322 only need to contact each other when the seat body 2 tilts forward relative to the base 1 to apply a backward pulling force to the seat 21 of the seat body 2.
[0108] See also Figure 4 In some embodiments, at least one of the first lower limiting member 321 and the second lower limiting member 322 has a hook-shaped cross-section, and the two are hooked together. In some embodiments, the first lower limiting member 321 may include, for example, one, two, or more hook-shaped members extending upward from the fixing seat 196, and the second lower limiting member 322 may extend along an arc and have a hook-shaped cross-section. Of course, the embodiments of the first lower limiting member 321 and the second lower limiting member 322 are not limited to the above examples.
[0109] See also Figure 21 and Figure 22 The rotational position of the seat body 2 relative to the mounting seat 13 can be locked by the second locking mechanism 213 . Figure 21 and Figure 22 1 shows an exemplary structure of the second locking mechanism 213. The second locking mechanism 213 is mounted on the seat portion 21 of the seat body 2. Figure 22 Part of the shell of the seat body 2 is omitted in order to facilitate illustrating the structure of the second locking mechanism 213.
[0110] See also Figure 21The second locking mechanism 213 includes an axially movable second locking member 2131. The mounting base 13 is provided with a plurality of second locking holes 2130 at positions corresponding to the second locking member 2131. The plurality of second locking holes 2130 are spaced apart along the rotational direction of the seat body 2. The second locking member 2131 is selectively coupled to one of the plurality of second locking holes 2130, thereby positioning the seat body 2 in different operating positions.
[0111] Combined with reference Figure 1 、 Figure 21 and Figure 22 The second locking mechanism 213 further includes a second release member 2132, which can be installed at the armrests on both sides of the seat 21. The second release member 2132 is connected to the second traction rope 2133 ( Figure 21 The second locking member 2131 is connected to the second locking member 2131. The first end of the second locking member 2131 is located inside the seat 21 and abuts against the second return spring 2134. The second return spring 2134 is used to push the second locking member 2131 so that the second end of the second locking member 2131 is engaged with the corresponding second locking hole 2130.
[0112] When the orientation of the seat body 2 needs to be adjusted, the second release member 2132 is pressed, and the second release member 2132 pulls the second locking member 2131 via the second traction rope 2133, causing the second end of the second locking member 2131 to exit the second locking hole 2130. The seat body 2 is then rotated. When the seat body 2 is rotated to the desired orientation, the second release member 2132 is released, and the second locking member 2131 engages with the corresponding second locking hole 2130 under the push of the second return spring 2134.
[0113] In the child safety seat 1000 provided in the first embodiment of the present application, the support frame 19 is connected to the mounting seat 13, and the seat body 2 is mounted on the mounting seat 13, so that the seat body 2, the mounting seat 13, and the support frame 19 move synchronously. When the tilt angle of the seat body 2 in the forward position relative to the base 1 is adjusted, the first upper limit member 311 and the second upper limit member 312 of the upper limit structure 31 move synchronously and can remain connected together. Similarly, when the tilt angle of the seat body 2 in the rearward position relative to the base 1 is adjusted, the first lower limit member 321 and the second lower limit member 322 of the lower limit structure 32 move synchronously and can remain connected together.
[0114] In addition, in some embodiments not shown, for example, the child safety seat 1000 provided in the first embodiment of the present application may be modified as follows:
[0115] 1. In some embodiments, the seat body 2 cannot rotate relative to the base 1. That is, the seat body 2 can only have one of a forward position and a rearward position. Accordingly, the child safety seat can be configured with only one of the first upper limit member 321 and the second lower limit member 322.
[0116] 2. In some embodiments, the child safety seat 1000 may omit the mounting seat 13 , and instead the seat portion 21 of the seat body 2 may be directly fixedly connected to the support frame 19 of the base 1 .
[0117] In some embodiments, the mounting base 13 can be connected to the turntable via a rotating mechanism, and the seat body 2 can be removably connected to the turntable. For example, the seat portion 21 of the seat body 2 can be removably engaged with the turntable. It is understood that the seat body 2 can rotate with the turntable to a forward position, a rearward position, and so on.
[0118] Second embodiment
[0119] See also Figure 23 , showing a perspective view of a child safety seat 1000 provided according to a second embodiment of the present application, Figure 24 and Figure 25 The figure shows side views of the child safety seat 1000 in different working states. The child safety seat 1000 includes a base 1 and a seat body 2. The base 1 is used to be installed on a vehicle seat. The seat body 2 is installed on the base 1 in a detachable or non-detachable manner. The seat body 2 is used for a child to sit on.
[0120] The orientation of the seat body 2 and the orientation of the base 1 in this embodiment can be referred to the explanation in the first embodiment, and will not be repeated here. The structures of the base 1 and the seat body 2 will be described in detail below.
[0121] See also Figures 26 to 29 The base 1 includes a base shell 10 and a support frame 19. The base shell 10 may include a base 11 and a support portion 12 extending upward from the base 11. The base 11 is used to be placed on the seat surface of the vehicle seat, and the support portion is used to abut against the backrest of the vehicle seat. In some embodiments, the base shell 10 may include multiple hard shells that surround the outer shape of the base shell 10, and the multiple hard shells define the internal space of the base shell 10. Figure 27 The plurality of hard shells include, for example, an upper shell 1011 and a lower shell 1012 that generally correspond to the base portion 11, and a front shell 1021 and a rear shell 1022 that generally correspond to the abutment portion 12. The upper shell 1011 and the front shell 1021 correspond to the front surface of the base shell 10, and the lower shell 1012 and the rear shell 1022 correspond to the rear surface of the base shell 10. Of course, in other embodiments, the base shell 10 may have other implementations.
[0122] See also Figure 27 In some embodiments, a mounting seat 13 is mounted on the front of the base 11. Unlike the first embodiment, the mounting seat 13 in this second embodiment cannot slide forward and backward relative to the base shell 10. The seat 21 of the chair body 2 is mounted on the mounting seat 13.
[0123] In some embodiments, the mounting base 13 is detachably connected to the seat portion 21 of the seat body 2, and the mounting base 13 itself is non-rotatable. In some embodiments, the seat body 2 can be configured to have multiple operating positions by changing the mounting orientation of the seat body 2 on the mounting base 13. The multiple operating positions include, for example, a forward position and a rearward position.
[0124] In some embodiments, the mounting base 13 can be pivotally connected to the base 11 via any suitable pivot mechanism (not shown). In this way, the seat body 2 can have multiple working positions as the mounting base 13 rotates. The multiple working positions can include, for example, at least two of a forward position, a rearward position, and a side position.
[0125] In some embodiments, the rotational position of the mounting base 13 relative to the base 1 can be locked by a fourth locking mechanism. In some embodiments, the fourth locking mechanism is, for example, mounted within the mounting base 13 and may include a fourth release member 134, an axially movable fourth locking member (not shown), a fourth return spring (not shown) abutting the fourth locking member, and a fourth pull rope (not shown) connected between the fourth release member 134 and the fourth locking member. The base housing 10 is provided with a plurality of fourth locking holes (not shown). Driven by the fourth return spring, the fourth locking member selectively engages with the plurality of fourth locking holes to position the seat body 2 on the mounting base 13 in different working positions. When the fourth release member 134 is pressed, the fourth pull rope pulls the fourth locking member out of the fourth locking hole, allowing the seat body 2 to be installed. When the seat body 2 is rotated to the appropriate orientation, the fourth release member 134 is released, and the fourth locking member, driven by the fourth return spring, engages with the corresponding fourth locking hole.
[0126] Figure 26 and Figure 27 The seat body 2 is detachably mounted on the mounting base 13. The mounting base 13 may be provided with a snap-fit mechanism 137, and the bottom of the seat body 2 is provided with a snap-fit rod 27 (see FIG. Figure 32), the engaging mechanism 137 is configured to detachably engage with the engaging rod 27. In some embodiments, the engaging mechanism 137 includes a plurality of engaging slots 1370 disposed on the mounting base 13 and a plurality of engaging hooks 1371 cooperating with the plurality of engaging slots 1370. The engaging rod 27 of the seat body 2 can be inserted into the engaging slots 1370 and locked by the engaging hooks 1371. The engaging mechanism 137 may also include a release member 1372 operably connected to each engaging hook 1371 to drive the engaging hooks 1371 to release the engaging rod 27. In some embodiments, the mounting base 13 may be provided with a display device 1373 for indicating whether the engaging rod 27 is locked by the engaging hooks 1371.
[0127] See also Figure 27 The front of the base shell 10 can be provided with a clamping groove 1201 and a belt clamp 129, and the belt clamp 129 can be locked in the clamping groove 1201 by a third locking mechanism 215 to form a channel for clamping the vehicle seat belt between the wall of the clamping groove 1201 and the belt clamp 129 (see the description of the first embodiment above).
[0128] Figure 28 and Figure 29 The upper housing 1011 and the front housing 1021 of the bottom housing 10 are omitted to facilitate illustrating the internal structure of the bottom housing 10. In some embodiments, the first end of the belt holder 129 is pivotally connected to the bottom housing 10 via the shaft 125, and the third locking mechanism 215 is provided at the second end of the belt holder 129. The third locking mechanism 215 is used to lock the relative position of the second end of the belt holder 129 and the base housing 10, thereby locking the belt holder 129 in the clamping groove 1201.
[0129] See also Figure 28 In some embodiments, the third locking mechanism 215 may include an axially movable third locking member 2151. A locking member 105 corresponding to the third locking member 2151 may also be mounted on the bottom housing 10. The locking member 105 may be formed with a third locking hole 1050. The third locking member 2151 may be inserted into or removed from the third locking hole 1050. When the third locking member 2151 is removed from the third locking hole 1050, the belt clamp 129 may pivot about the shaft 125 to open the clamping slot 1201. When the third locking member 2151 is inserted into the third locking hole 1050, the belt clamp 129 is locked in the clamping slot 1201. In some embodiments, an operating hole 1290 is provided on the surface of the belt clamp 129, and the third releasing member 2152 connected to the third locking member 2151 corresponds to the operating hole 1290. The user can operate the third releasing member 2152 through the operating hole 1290, thereby driving the third locking member 2151 to exit the third locking hole 1050.
[0130] See also Figure 28 and Figure 29 , the support frame 19 is installed inside the base shell 10. Different from the first embodiment described above, the support frame 19 in this second embodiment is connected to the base shell 10, for example, by fasteners, and the support frame 19 cannot slide relative to the base shell 10. In some embodiments, the support frame 19 mainly serves to enhance the structural strength of the base shell 10. In some embodiments, the support frame 19 may include two longitudinal rods 191, and the two longitudinal rods 191 may be connected by any suitable structure. In some embodiments, the top ends of the two longitudinal rods 191 may be connected by a U-shaped rod 197. The first upper limit member 311 may be connected to the U-shaped rod 197 and protrude forward from the top of the abutment portion 12.
[0131] In some embodiments, each longitudinal rod 191 of the support frame 19 may be further provided with a reinforcement bracket 1917, which is used to strengthen the structural strength of the bend of each longitudinal rod 191. In some embodiments, at least one cross bar 1922 may be further provided between two longitudinal rods 191 of the support frame 19.
[0132] See also Figure 30 In some embodiments, the child safety seat 1000 may further include a top tether 4. A first end 41 of the top tether 4 is connected to the base 1, and a second end 42 of the top tether 4 may be provided with an anchor 43, which is used to connect to an anchor point on the back of a vehicle seat, for example.
[0133] Figure 30 The upper, front, and rear housings of the base housing 10 are omitted to facilitate illustration of the exemplary connection structure between the top tether 4 and the base 1. The first end 41 of the top tether 4 can extend into the interior of the base housing 10 and connect to a fixing member 114. The fixing member 114 can, for example, be fixed to the support frame 19. More specifically, the fixing member 114 and the first upper limit member 311 are fixed to the U-shaped rod 197 via fasteners.
[0134] In some embodiments, a support ring 315 is provided on the first upper limit member 311, and the second end 42 of the top tether 4 passes through the support ring 315 when extending upward. That is, the middle part of the top tether 4 is wrapped around the support ring 315. When the vehicle suddenly brakes, the first upper limit member 311 is tightened by the top tether 4 while tightening the second upper limit member 312. In this way, the force of the seat body 2 tilting forward can be transmitted to the vehicle seat through the upper limit structure 31 including the first upper limit member 311 and the top tether 4. In addition, the first upper limit member 311 is simultaneously subjected to two opposite pulling forces, and these two opposite pulling forces can offset each other, which can effectively avoid damage to the first upper limit member 311.
[0135] In some embodiments, the first upper limiting member 311 includes a plate 3111 and a hook 3112 extending forward from an upper end of the plate 3111 , and the support ring 315 may extend from a rear side of the plate 3111 .
[0136] See also Figure 31 and Figure 32 The seat body 2 includes a seat portion 21 and a backrest portion 22 extending upward from the seat portion 21. A headrest 23 may be mounted on the backrest portion 22. The shell of the seat body 2 may include a body shell 201 and a bottom shell 202 mounted on the back of the body shell. The body shell 201 forms a space for a child to sit. In some embodiments, the body shell 201 and the bottom shell 202 each have a portion corresponding to the seat portion 21, or the body shell 201 and the bottom shell 202 each have a portion corresponding to the seat portion 21 and the backrest portion 22.
[0137] See also Figure 32 The bottom shell 202 is provided with a plurality of engaging rods 27, which are used to be detachably connected to the engaging structure 137 of the mounting base 13. The main body shell 201 can be slidably mounted to the bottom shell 202, so that the tilt angle of the main body shell 201 relative to the bottom shell 202 can be adjusted.
[0138] See also Figures 33 to 35 The exemplary structure of the main body shell 201 and the bottom shell 202 is shown. In some embodiments, the main body shell 201 is provided with a plurality of elongated holes 2010, and the bottom shell 202 is provided with a plurality of sliding rods 2021, and the plurality of sliding rods 2021 and the plurality of elongated holes 2010 are slidably matched.
[0139] like Figures 33 to 35As shown, three slide bars 2021 are mounted on the bottom housing 202. The three slide bars 2021 may include a front slide bar 20211, a middle slide bar 20212, and a rear slide bar 20213. The main housing 201 is provided with elongated holes 2010 at positions corresponding to the ends of each slide bar 20213. In some embodiments, the middle slide bar 20212 is sleeved within a locking rod 27.
[0140] See also Figure 33 and Figure 35 The sliding position of the main body shell 201 relative to the bottom shell 202 can be locked by the fifth locking mechanism 235. Figure 33 and Figure 35 FIG2 shows a schematic structure of the fifth locking mechanism 235. The fifth locking mechanism 235 may include an axially movable fifth locking member 2351, a fifth release member 2352, a fifth traction rope 2353 connected between the fifth locking member 2351 and the fifth release member 2352, and a fifth reset member 2354 for driving the fifth locking member 2351 to reset. The fifth locking member 2351 may be mounted on a mounting bracket 2025 fixed to the bottom shell 202. The fifth reset member 2354 may abut against the fifth locking member 2351. The fifth release member 2352 may be mounted on the front side of the bottom shell 202, for example. The main body shell 201 may be provided with a plurality of fifth locking holes 2350. The fifth locking member 1311 selectively connects to the plurality of fifth locking holes 2350, thereby positioning the main body shell 201 in different sliding positions to meet the child's riding needs.
[0141] See again Figure 24 and Figure 25 In some embodiments, the child safety seat 1000 further includes at least one limiting structure 3. The seat body 2 and the base 1 may be connected by at least one limiting structure 3. The limiting structure 3 is used to apply a pulling force to the seat body 2 to prevent the seat body 2 from tipping forward relative to the base 1 when the vehicle brakes unexpectedly, which may cause a danger.
[0142] See also Figure 24 In some embodiments, the limiting structure 3 includes an upper limit structure 31. When the seat body 2 is in the forward position and the vehicle suddenly brakes, the upper end of the bottom shell 202 of the seat body 2 is engaged with the base 1 through the upper limit structure 31. The upper limit structure 31 pulls the backrest 22 of the seat body 2, which can effectively prevent the seat body 2 from tipping forward relative to the base 1.
[0143] Continue to see Figure 24In some embodiments, the upper limit structure 31 includes a first upper limit member 311 and a second upper limit member 312. The first upper limit member 311 is located at the top of the abutment portion 12. In some embodiments, as described above, the first upper limit member 311 can be provided at the upper end of the U-shaped rod 197 of the support frame 19, protruding forward relative to the abutment portion 12. Figure 34 The second upper limit member 312 can be disposed on the top of the bottom shell 202. When the seat body 2 is in the forward position, the first upper limit member 311 and the second upper limit member 312 cooperate with each other, for example, with a clearance fit. It should be noted that when the seat body 2 is in the forward position, the first upper limit member 311 and the second upper limit member 312 do not necessarily always maintain a contacting connection with each other. As long as the first upper limit member 311 and the second upper limit member 312 contact each other when the seat body 2 tilts forward relative to the base 1, they can apply a backward pulling force to the backrest portion 22 of the seat body 2.
[0144] Continue to see Figure 24 In some embodiments, the first and second limiting members 311, 312 can have hook-shaped cross-sections, allowing them to hook into each other. In some embodiments, the first and second limiting members 311, 312 can both extend along an arc, ensuring sufficient contact area without interfering with the rotation of the seat body 2 relative to the base 1. Of course, the first and second limiting members 311, 312 can also have other embodiments and are not limited to the above examples.
[0145] See also Figure 34 and Figure 35 In some embodiments, the second upper limit member 312 is connected to the slide rod 20213, for example, through a centering member 313.
[0146] See also Figure 25 In some embodiments, the limiting structure 3 includes a lower limiting structure 32. When the seat body 2 is in the rearward position and the vehicle suddenly brakes, the front end of the bottom shell 202 of the seat body 2 is engaged with the base 1 through the lower limiting structure 32. The lower limiting structure 32 pulls the seat portion 21 of the child seat, which can effectively prevent the seat body 2 from tipping forward relative to the base 1.
[0147] Continue to see Figure 25In some embodiments, the lower limiting structure 32 includes a first lower limiting member 321 and a second lower limiting member 322. The first lower limiting member 321 extends from the base 1 to the seat portion 21, and the second lower limiting member 322 is disposed at the front end of the bottom shell 202. When the seat body 2 is in the rearward position, the first lower limiting member 321 and the second lower limiting member 322 cooperate with each other, for example, with a clearance fit. It should be noted that when the seat body 2 is in the rearward position, the first lower limiting member 321 and the second lower limiting member 322 do not always maintain a connected state of contact with each other. As long as the first lower limiting member 321 and the second lower limiting member 322 contact each other when the seat body 2 tilts forward relative to the base 1, a backward pulling force is applied to the seat portion 21 of the seat body 2.
[0148] Continue to see Figure 25 In some embodiments, at least one of the first lower limiting member 321 and the second lower limiting member 322 has a hook-shaped cross section, and the two are hooked to each other. Figure 29 In some embodiments, the first lower limiting member 321 includes, for example, one, two or more hook-shaped members connected to the support frame 19. Figure 34 and Figure 35 The second lower limiting member 322 may include, for example, one, two, or more fixing rings extending from the bottom housing 202. Of course, the embodiments of the first lower limiting member 321 and the second lower limiting member 322 are not limited to the above examples. In some embodiments, each fixing ring of the second lower limiting member 322 may be connected to the slide bar 20211 and / or a locking rod 27, for example, via a centering member 324.
[0149] According to the child safety seat 1000 of the present application, when the inclination angle of the main body shell 201 is changed, the bottom shell 202 does not move relative to the base 1, and thus does not hinder the cooperation between the second upper limit member 312 of the bottom shell 202 and the first upper limit member 311 of the base 1, and the cooperation between the second lower limit member 322 of the bottom shell 202 and the first lower limit member 321 of the base 1.

In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0151] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present application. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that a person of ordinary skill in the art may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
