Abstract
Abstract Seating equipment for child use on a vehicle seat comprises two generally channel shaped portions (10;110 & 20;120) which can be used individually or in stacked relationship to function as booster cushions or which can be assembled together to form a child's seat, one portion then providing a backrest. The shoulder belt of an adult seat belt system is deflected to suit an occupant of the seating equipment by a projection (24) on the portion providing the backrest or by a connector (142), which may clampingly engage the belt, carried on a strap (140) extending from one or other of the portions.
