Abstract
A child seat has side walls on left and right sides of a squab portion thereof, and recessed portions for a seat belt passage, respectively. In case of a relatively large-sized infant, a seat belt installed in a vehicle and designed primarily for use by an adult is placed to extend across the squab portion. The seat belt passes through the recessed portions so as to extend closely with the infant's body to protect the infant. In case of a relatively small-sized infant, an impact shield is attached to the seat belt, so that the infant can be protected by the seat belt via the impact shield. Fitting members are fitted in the recessed portions to make the tops of the side walls flat when using the impact shield. The impact shield is stably placed on the side walls having the flat tops.
