Abstract:
1. An Improved Child Car Seat with Alternate Mobility Attributes Apparatus, said car seat being able to adapt to the needs and comfort of a child from the age of infants through young children, comprised thereof: a shell, contoured to accommodate a child in an age appropriate inclination, said shell constructed in a manner suitable for safe transport of said child in said shell during vehicular transport and providing comfort to said child, having a front portion, where said child is loaded into said apparatus and a rear portion which contains age appropriate support for child's back, neck and head and 2 parallel sides joining said front portion to said rear portion, a padding contrivance designed to integrate with said shell, providing comfort to said child, a restraining means designed to secure said child within the confines of said shell during vehicular transport, a handle, having at least one member, having an attached end integrated with said rear portion of said shell and a gripping end opposite of said attached end, where said handle being integrally capable of being retracted within said rear portion of said shell, said handle having the capability of collapsing or extending, having segments of diminishing circumference, said segments being able to be placed internally in an overlapping fashion within an adjacent segments, a transference grip located near the center of gravity of said shell in relation to said child, said grip consisting to two side connecting members and an over-arching member, said side connecting members pivotally attached to said parallel sides of said shell in an opposing manner, said over-arching member being integrated with said side connecting members, said grip capable of rotational movement near said center of gravity. at least one brace leg, having a distal end with an elastomeric anti-skid plate and a proximal end attached to said rear end of said shell, having the capability of collapsing or extending, having brace leg segments of diminishing circumference, said brace leg segments being able to be placed internally in an overlapping fashion within an adjacent segments, a set of retractably extended front legs, having a proximal end attached to said front end of said shell and a distal end terminated by a transportation means secured thereonto, said front legs having a pivoting means enabling said front legs to rotate thereabout the proximate center of said legs, enabling said proximal end and said distal end to be able to be located next to each other in the closed position, and a band of material, terminating at either side of said rear end of said shell, where at least one terminating point is a non-permanently closed securement means, with an amount of material that allows a user to encircle their waist, said material having a tensile strength to support the weight of said child and said apparatus with a sufficient safety factor.
