Abstract: A child seat (10) with a seat shell (12) and with a backrest (14) is described. The seat shell (12) is designed with a lap-belt guide (18) for a vehicle lap belt. The backrest (14) has a head restraint (20) with lateral flanks (22), a respective diagonal-belt guide (26) for a vehicle diagonal belt of a vehicle three-point belt being provided on the lateral flanks (22). The diagonal-belt guide has a slot (28) which is open to the front, does not clamp the belt and has a belt-retaining section (30). The belt-retaining section (30) directly and immediately adjoins the front-side slot opening (32) of the slot (28). A spring-loaded closure element (34) is provided on the front-side slot opening (32), the closure element enabling the vehicle diagonal belt to be threaded in a simple manner through the slot opening (32) into the slot (28) and blocking the slot opening (32) in its normal closure position in a spring-loaded, prestressed manner.

Abstract: A child seat (10) is described with a seat shell (14) which can be displaced between different positions on a base part (12). An actuating handle (26) is provided on the front edge (30) of the seat shell (14) and is connected to a locking device (36) by means of which the seat shell (14) is secured in one of the different positions with respect to the base part (12) in the normal inoperative state of the actuating handle (26) and can be displaced by actuation of the actuating handle (26). In order to realize a child seat (10) of excellent maneuverability and optimum operating convenience, the actuating handle (26) is designed as a rotary handle (28) which can be rotated about an axis of rotation (32) parallel to the front edge (30) of the seat shell (14), and which at the same time forms a displacing handle.
