Collapsible Child Seat Support for Easy Angle Adjustment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing child safety seats with forward and rearward usage have complex structural designs, inconvenient operations, and difficulties in adjusting the sitting angle, making them less user-friendly.
Innovation Solution
A collapsible support device with a simple structure is integrated into the child safety seat, featuring a first supporting part and a second supporting part that can be pivoted and collapsed, allowing for easy adjustment of the sitting angle and convenient operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If complex structural design is used to enable forward and rearward usage, then the child safety seat can be used in multiple positions, but the operation becomes inconvenient and the structure becomes complicated
Solution Approach 1:
The support device is divided into multiple independent parts: a first supporting part connected to the seat body and a second supporting part connected to the first supporting part. Each part can independently pivot and collapse, allowing the system to achieve multiple configurations (forward/rearward positions) through simple individual component movements rather than complex integrated mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The support device incorporates pivotal connections that allow dynamic adjustment between different positions. The first supporting part can pivot relative to the seat body, and the second supporting part can pivot relative to the first supporting part, enabling easy transition between forward and rearward usage modes through simple rotational movements.

AI summary
A collapsible support device (10) is adapted to be installed on a child safety seat (100) and includes a first supporting part (11) and a second supporting part (12). The second supporting part (12) is pivotally connected to an end of the first supporting part (11) to be capable of being collapsed to the first supporting part (11). Another end of the first supporting part (11) is pivotally connected to the child safety seat (100). The first supporting part (11) is selectively rotated relative to the child safety seat (100) to be located at one of a use position and a storage position. The second supporting part (12) is selectively rotated relative to the first supporting part (11) to be located at one of a supporting position and a collapsed position. The collapsible support device (10) has advantages of simple structure and providing operation convenience to users.
