Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to child safety seats, and in particular, an apparatus and method for securing child safety seats within a vehicle. Embodiments may provide a safety seat that includes a base defining a cavity therein. The safety seat may further include a first strap and a second strap where the first strap and the second strap each include a pulling end and an attachment end. The safety seat may also include a balancer assembly disposed within the cavity where each of the first and second straps pass through the balancer assembly, and where a pulling force applied to the pulling end of either of the first strap or the second strap results in a force on the attachment ends of both of the first and second strap that is substantially equal.

Abstract: A housing assembly (100) for an electronic device includes a first housing portion (102), a second housing portion (104), and a slidable element (106). The first and the second housing portions (102, 104) are configured to mate to form a housing (412). The slidable element (106) is slidably disposed in the housing (412), and is configured to fasten the first and the second housing portions (102, 104) when in a first position and unfasten the first and the second housing portions (102, 104) when in a second position. The housing (412) defines an opening (198) to access a positioning tab (123) of the ridable element (106).
