Abstract An infant-restraining protective seat includes a shoulder-belt adjusting device (6) provided on a seat back. The shoulder-belt adjusting device (6) includes a belt guide (101) for guiding shoulder belts (5a) in such a manner that the position of the shoulder belts can be adjusted up or down, supporting means (102) for supporting the belt guide (101), a vertically extending screw shaft (103) for moving the supporting means (102) up and down, an operating knob (104) turnably attached to the left side wall (33) of the seat back (3), and a torque link (105) which connects the operating knob (104) and the screw shaft (103) while producing a right-angle change in direction, and which transmits the rotational torque of the operating knob (104) to the screw shaft (103). The lower end of the screw shaft (103) is supported so as to be capable of rotating in a state in which the shaft is supported in the thrust direction by means of a lower bracket ( 37).
An infant-restraining protective seat comprising: a set portion for seating an infant; a seat back for supporting the back of the seated infant; and an infant seat belt device for restraining and protecting the seated infant; said seat back being provided with a shoulder-belt adjusting device, said shoulder-belt adjusting device having: a belt guide for guiding shoulder belts of said infant seat belt device up and down; a screw shaft disposed vertically in the belt guide and having at least its lower end supported for rotation but fixed axially for moving said belt guide up and down; a torque link, which has one end connected to said screw shaft and its other end arranged so as to perpendicularly intersect the axial direction of said screw shaft, for transmitting rotational torque to said screw shaft; and an operating knob provided on either the left or right side of said seat back and having the other end of said torque link connected thereto for applying the rotational torque to said torque link.
