    Abstract: A baby car seat air bag protector includes a baby car seat for securing an infant in a reclined position upon a conventional car seat. The air bag protector includes a lateral bar that extends laterally above and around the chest of the infant. The opposing side ends of the lateral bar are releasably secured to opposing sides of the baby car seat. An upper bar extends perpendicular to the lateral bar around the infant's head. The lower end of the upper bar is secured to the central region of the lateral bar. The upper end of the upper bar is releasably secured to the upper edge of the back portion of the baby car seat. The side ends of the lateral bar, and the upper end of the upper bar, include clamps for releasably grasping edge portions of the baby car seat.

  • Patent number: 4290284
    Abstract: A locking device for use in conjunction with spoked wheel vehicles includes a hasp having first and second hinged members. The first member includes an outwardly projecting staple, and the second member includes a corresponding slot which passes over the staple when the second member is folded against the first member in the locked position. A threaded nut is rigidly attached to a plate, and the threaded nut is spun onto an end of a threaded wheel axle which supports the spoked wheel. The first member of the hasp is attached to the plate and to the vehicle frame by a clamping bracket engaged by screws inserted through holes within the first member and through slots within the plate. The hasp also includes a pair of flanges extending perpendicularly from opposite edges of the second member. When the second memberof the hasp is closed over the first member in the locked position, the flanges extend beyond the first member and plate and project between the spokes of the spoked wheel for immobilizing it.
