Abstract

Abstract A sun shield assembly for detachable attachment to an infant's seat includes a pair of mounting brackets and a hood mountable in the brackets. Each bracket is formed with a base having an adhesive material on one face thereof and a hollow cylindrical boss projecting from the other face of the boss. The hood is given a pair of cylindrical pivot pins which extend from the opposed side walls of the hood and are dimensioned to pivot within the corresponding boss of the mounting bracket. The hood is made of a material which is sufficiently resilient such that the side walls can be separated to a spaced apart distance whereby the pivot pins can be inserted into the respective bosses.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 181 words
A sun shield assembly for detachable attachment to a selected location on an infant's seat comprising in combination: a pair of mounting brackets each having a base portion and a hollow cylindrical boss projecting from one face of said base portion, an adhesive material being provided on the opposed face of said base portion for releasably securing the bracket to a selected region on the outer side wall of an infant's seat; a hood having a top wall and opposed side walls, a pivot pin integral with each of said side walls and projecting laterally therefrom inwardly and having a configuration complementary to that of the corresponding boss of the mounting bracket and dimensioned to be accommodated rotatably within said bosses, said hood being sufficiently resilient to permit separation of the side walls thereof to a spaced apart distance enabling positioning of said pivot pins within the corresponding bosses of the mounting brackets; and means on said pivot pins and mounting brackets cooperable with each other to maintain the sun shield in a predetermined angular disposition relative to the infant's seat.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 181 words
A sun shield assembly for detachable attachment to a selected location on an infant's seat comprising in combination: a pair of mounting brackets each having a base portion and a hollow cylindrical boss projecting from one face of said base portion, an adhesive material being provided on the opposed face of said base portion for releasably securing the bracket to a selected region on the outer side wall of an infant's seat; a hood having a top wall and opposed side walls, a pivot pin integral with each of said side walls and projecting laterally therefrom inwardly and having a configuration complementary to that of the corresponding boss of the mounting bracket and dimensioned to be accommodated rotatably within said bosses, said hood being sufficiently resilient to permit separation of the side walls thereof to a spaced apart distance enabling positioning of said pivot pins within the corresponding bosses of the mounting brackets; and means on said pivot pins and mounting brackets cooperable with each other to maintain the sun shield in a predetermined angular disposition relative to the infant's seat.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 84 words
A sun shield assembly according to claim 1, wherein a radial locking pin is carried by each of said pivot pins and at least one axial slot is formed in the side wall of each of said bosses, said axial slots being open at their outer extremities and angularly displaced at their inner extremities to thereby be adapted to retain the locking pin of the corresponding pivot pin therein and maintain the sun shield in a predetermined angular disposition relative to an infant's seat.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
A sun shield assembly according to claim 1, wherein said hood and mounting brackets are made of a synthetic plastics material.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 31 words
