Abstract: A shoulder belt adjustment mechanism for a booster car seat is described in which the belt guide adjustment is adjustable to one of at least two positions along a linear or nonlinear adjustment axis and wherein each adjustment axis is along a portion of a line formed by an intersection of two planes formed by a vertical splay plane formed by an outer shell of said wings and an angled declination plane formed generally along said lower edges of said wings.

Abstract: The invention of this application relates to an infant carrier with carry handle wherein the carry handle is adapted to facilitate easier, more comfortable carrying in the crook of one's elbow and wherein the carry handle is adapted to removably display a printed image or other indicia, such as safety or identification indicia.

Abstract: A car seat for transporting a child in an automobile is described which is convertible from a rear-facing infant carrier into a forward-facing toddler carrier by the inclusion or removal of a separable headrest. The car seat features a belt adjustment system as well as a crotch belt adjustment system in addition to front and rear restraint attachment components.

Abstract: A stepladder includes a longer inclined frame provided with steps coupled to a shorter stabilizer frame provided with rungs for movement relative to the longer inclined frame between an expanded use position and a collapsed storage position. The stepladder also includes a top-step lock to lock the top step in a fixed position relative to the two frames.

Abstract: An infant carrier and car seat combination is illustrated which provides releasable lockability between the carrier and its base, infant seat belt tensioning and height adjustment, improved handle movement which resists twisting and carrier base adjustment through a movable base within the carrier base.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to an adjustably extendable seat back for a car seat, that optionally folds compactly for easy transportation.

Abstract: This invention relates to a child's car seat which may be used with or without an internal harness system, and, more specifically relates to a car seat with a means to store the internal harness system of the car seat when the car seat is being used without the harness system.

Abstract: A step stool includes a step frame and a handrail movable relative to the step frame between lowered and raised positions. The handrail includes a handle and left and right handle support arms coupled to the handle to allow sliding movement of the handle relative to the left and right handle support arms as the handrail is moved relative to the step frame between raised and lowered positions. A tray is mounted for pivotable movement on a handle located between the left and right handle support arms about a pivot axis established by the handle.

Abstract: A step ladder includes a frame having a front leg and a rear leg coupled to the front leg for movement relative to the front leg between an opened position and a collapsed position. A pivot support mount of the step ladder supports a handle of the step ladder for pivotable movement on the front leg about a pivot axis. The step ladder further includes a retainer member coupled to the handle to move therewith about the pivot axis. The retainer member is arranged to lock the front leg to the rear leg when the front and rear legs are in the collapsed position. A guide of the step ladder is coupled to the pivot support mount and configured to engage the rear leg and maintain the rear leg in alignment with the front leg when the frame is in the collapsed position.

Abstract: A foldable step stool includes pivotable front and rear leg units and steps coupled to the front leg unit. A utility tray pivots relative to the front leg unit.

Abstract: A step ladder includes rigidified left and right legs and step units between the legs. Each rigidified leg includes a web interconnecting first and second tubular members. Each step unit includes a hollow step including an internal rigidifying partition wall and step mounts for coupling the hollow step to the legs.
