HARNESS ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM FOR ACHILD VEHICLE SEAT

摘要

A child vehicle seat includes a seat assembly including an upright portion having a first passage and a second passage defined therein. The child vehicle seat further includes a harness system including (i) a first shoulder belt portion extending through the first belt passage, and (ii) a second shoulder belt portion extending through the second belt passage. Also, the child vehicle seat includes a retractor assembly configured to receive belt portions of the harness system in a wound configuration, the retractor assembly including a spring which urges belt portions of the harness system into the retractor assembly. Moreover, the child vehicle seat includes an actuator positionable between (i) a first position in which the actuator prevents payout of belt portions from the retractor assembly, and (ii) a second position in which the actuator allows payout of belt portions from the retractor assembly. The retractor assembly further includes a manual adjustment mechanism, and manual movement of the manual adjustment mechanism causes further belt portions of the harness system to be advanced into the retractor assembly.
