Disclosed herein is a car seat comprised of a base and a shell. The base includes a receiving portion and a backing portion. The seat shell includes a seat back and a seat bottom having a lower portion. The seat bottom is convex and interfaces with the receiving portion of the base. The seat shell is rotatable with respect to the base. The seat shell is selectively positionable between a plurality of orientations. The seat shell includes handles configured to independently unlock rotation of the seat shell with respect to the base. The lower portion of the seat shell includes an aperture configured to receive at least a portion of a projection of the base therethrough.

Rotatable car seat and base

A system to transport infant children is provided. The system includes a base configured to be secured to a portion of an automobile; a chassis independent from the base; a first release mechanism releasably coupling the chassis to the base; an infant car seat independent from the base and the chassis; a second release mechanism releasably coupling the infant car seat to the chassis; wherein the chassis and the infant car seat are releasable from the base as a combined unit upon operation of the first release mechanism; and wherein the infant car seat is releasable from the combined unit of the base and chassis upon operation of the second release mechanism.

Infant transport system and assembly

A convertible stroller is provided that includes a shell configured to support an infant. A pair of rear legs are pivotally coupled to the shell and a pair of front legs are pivotally coupled to a respective rear leg. The rear legs and the front legs are retractable to a first transport condition, and deployable away from the shell to a second transport condition usable as a stroller. A front wheel may be coupled to each front leg that is rotatable about a horizontal axle in the second transport condition. Each front wheel has a post that acts as an axis of rotation in the second transport condition. A cam sleeve is provided that is movably disposed on each post. In a first position, the cam sleeve allows rotation about the axis of rotation, and in the second transport condition prevents rotation of the front wheel about the axis of rotation.

Infant transport system and assembly with caster alignment

An apparatus for transport and storage of sporting equipment such as skis has a wheeled caddy, gear bag and a tray.

Disclosed herein is a rotatable car seat comprised of a base and a shell. The base includes a receiving portion and a backing portion. The seat shell includes a seat back and a seat bottom having a lower portion. The seat bottom is convex and interfaces with the receiving portion of the base. The seat shell is rotatable with respect to the base. The seat shell is selectively positionable between a plurality of orientations. Additionally provided are a features that allow for the effective use of a rotatable car seat.

A handle assembly for an infant carrier is provided. The handle assembly allows the handle to be oriented in one of a plurality of positions, such as a stroller position, and infant carrier position and a car seat position. The handle assembly may include a locking mechanism allowing a handle extension to be extended only when the handle rotated to the stroller position. The handle assembly may also include a blocking mechanism that prevents the handle from rotating from the stroller position if the handle is extended.

Disclosed herein is a car seat comprised of a base and a shell. The base includes a receiving portion and a backing portion. The seat shell includes a seat back and a seat bottom having a lower portion. The seat bottom interfaces with the receiving portion of the base. The seat shell is removably attached to the base and rotatable with respect to the base. The seat shell is selectively positionable between a plurality of orientations. A recline mechanism is configured to permit the seat shell to recline with respect to the base. The seat shell is selectively reclinable between a plurality of recline positions. The seat shell includes handles configured to independently unlock rotation of the seat shell with respect to the base. The lower portion of the seat shell includes an aperture configured to receive at least a portion of a projection of the base therethrough.

Booster seat to base attachment mechanism

A novel infant child restraint system that includes a base having a height adjustment to allow the base to assume one of a plurality of positions and inclinations when mounted to the vehicle seat. Additionally, in certain embodiments the base is formed to have a recessed knee-receiving area, into which the user can place their knee when tightening the vehicle's restraint system around the base. The base and car seat are removably attached in interlocking relation using a novel connection mechanism that is not susceptible to premature or improper release due to forces, regardless of the direction of such forces. This mechanism is independent of the car seat handle. Furthermore, this connection mechanism includes a simple manual disconnect or release system, to allow quick removal of the seat from the base.

Infant child restraint system

An infant car seat having an outer shell, a protective layer, and a padded fabric cover covering the protective layer is disclosed. The protective layer is preferably made of a polymer, such as expanded polystyrene, and includes a plurality of crush ribs. The spacing of these crush ribs is varied in accordance with the size of the infant. The spacing of these crush ribs determines the stiffness of the layer. In other words, closer spaced ribs offer more resistance to compression, and are therefore stiffer. Ribs that are spaced further apart offer less resistance to compression, and are therefore softer. By varying the spacing of the ribs, the stiffness of the protective layer varies in accordance with the infant's size. Alternatively, or additionally, the width of the crush ribs can be varied to achieve a similar result.
