  • Publication number: 20090066125
    Abstract: An energy absorption device including an elastic core. The elastic core includes an elastic material, a covering enclosing the elastic core, and at least one flow device. Air contained in the elastic core may escape through the flow device into the space outside the covering when the elastic core is compressed. Additionally, air flows through the flow device into the space enclosed by the covering when the elastic core expands. The covering is constructed of a flexible, expansion-resistant material. The flow device is designed in the form of at least one connecting point between the covering elements of the covering such that air can escape from the elastic core or can flow into the elastic core through the connecting point.

  • Patent number: 7387315
    Abstract: A belt guiding element for a child safety system, in particular for a child seat, can provide a high safety level and particularly highly comfortable use when the safety belt is inserted into the element and when the belt is removed therefrom. The belt guiding element comprises a slot for receiving a safety belt, on the vehicle side, in particular a three-point belt, and a locking element capable of being open or closed. The locking element enables, in an open position, for the safety belt to be inserted into the slot or the safety belt previously inserted into the slot, to be removed. In a closed position the locking element enables, the insertion or removal of the safety belt to be prevented. The locking element includes a lock lever which can pivot about a pin spaced apart from the slot.
