  • Publication number: 20170119172
    Abstract: A booster seat includes a storage compartment for a tray and/or a storage compartment for securing straps. The tray-storage compartment can be formed in a base of the seat and include an access opening through a sidewall of the base. The tray-storage compartment can include two opposite and inwardly-extending lips that support the tray in the stowed position, and a support foot that moves between a use position in the compartment where it helps support the seat and a stored position displaced from the compartment. Also, the tray-storage compartment can include ribs that engage the tray in the stowed position to retain it there. The strap-storage compartment can be formed in the base and include an access opening with a closure for retaining the straps in the compartment. A base panel can be provided for stability and support.

  • Patent number: 9573496
    Abstract: A vehicle safety seat and infant carrier system allowing height adjustment of a shoulder harness strap without rethreading the harness strap through the seat. A positioning member is normally biased out of engagement with a toothed rail, allowing a harness strap carried by the positioning member to be adjusted up or down to fit the size of a child. As the harness strap is pulled tight, the positioning member is brought into engagement with the toothed rail, fixing the position of the strap relative to the seat.

  • Patent number: 9371017
    Abstract: A plurality of lock tracks on a carrier of a car seat, a slider that co-pivots with a handle of the carrier, and an actuator on the handle and moveable between lock and release positions. Each of the lock tracks defines a respective handle position. The slider is slideable between lock and release positions, and is spring-biased toward the lock position. In the slider lock position, the slider engages one of the lock tracks to secure the co-pivoting handle in the respective handle position. And in the slider release position, the slider does not engage any of the lock tracks to permit the co-pivoting handle to pivot between the handle positions. The actuator is biased toward the lock position by the spring-biased slider, and actuating the actuator from its lock position to its release position moves the slider from its lock position to its release position.

  • Publication number: 20160120280
    Abstract: A storage device including a body having an inner compartment, wherein the body has first and second outer portions and a middle portion positioned therebetween. The storage device further includes a strap attachable to the body in a first configuration wherein the strap is coupled to the body at or adjacent to the first and second outer portions and extends therebetween and is not coupled to the middle portion such that the strap is wearable over a shoulder of a user in a manner of a courier-type bag, and a second configuration wherein the strap is coupled to the body at or adjacent to the first and second outer portions and releasably slidably attached to the middle portion to thereby define a pair of loops. Each loop is shaped and configured to receive an arm of a user therethrough such that the storage device is wearable on a back of the user in the manner of a backpack.
