Abstract
Abstract A child seat capable of easily adjusting its reclining angle. The child seat is placed on a vehicle seat, and the tongue of a seat-side belt and the buckle of a belt are latched to each other. Then, the dial is turned to wind the belt to fix the child seat to the vehicle seat. To adjust the reclining angle, a lock-releasing lever is pulled to pull out seat-fixing pins from pin through holes and to pivot an arm portion by a link bar so as to release the locking of the winder.
