Abstract
Abstract In a receive base 3 forming a child seat 1 , there is disposed a set angle adjusting mechanism 5 which, in accordance with the angle of a vehicle seat 2 , extends a primary rotary plate or the primary rotary plate and a secondary rotary plate simultaneously in a rotating manner to thereby interpose the same between the receive base 3 and vehicle seat 2 . According to the present structure, the angle of the receive base 3 can be freely set regardless of the angle of the vehicle seat 2 . Also, the set angle adjusting mechanism 5 may be interposed between the receive base 3 and the seat main body of the child seat in such a manner that it is able to adjust the angle of the seat main body. An angle display device is disposed in either of the receive base or seat main body, so that the above-mentioned angle can be confirmed while setting the same. This can enhance the convenience and safety of the child seat to a great extent.
