Abstract
A restraint and protection seat for an infant is placed on a seat of a vehicle and restrained by a seat belt equipped in the vehicle. The restraint and protection seat is formed of a seat section, an infant restraint device attached to the seat section for holding a body of an infant when the infant is seated in the seat section, and a belt engaging device attached to a back surface of a seat back portion of the seat section. The belt engaging device includes an elongated base portion having a first pointed waveform surface, and a hook portion having a second pointed waveform surface corresponding to the first pointed waveform surface. The hook portion is spaced from the base portion to form a space therebetween smaller than the thickness of a seat belt in the vehicle. Thus, when the seat belt is inserted into the space between the base portion and the hook portion, the seat section is securely fixed to the seat belt.
