摘要

An adjustable child seat includes a backrest (100) and a seat base (200) and may be used with or without the backrest. The child seat includes adjustable arm rests (250). The height of the backrest and the depth of the seat base are also adjustable. The connection between the backrest and the seat base is configured to prevent unintentional separation but allows simple and intuitive separation when desired. A belt guide (450) operating in either a seat belt locking mode or a seat belt free mode is also provided. A series of latches and notches (160 and 130 Fig 3) or tabs and notches (145 and 140 Fig 7) serve to lock the two halves of the backrest in a desired position. A handle (150 Fig 3) may be used to disengage the latch from the notch. Cup holders may be provided (300) these may be partially retracted under the seat base. The backrest may be pivotally connected using a plurality of hooks (125 Fig 9) about a bar (225 Fig 9). At least one curved surface of a hook opposes the curved surface of another hook.
