Patent ID: 7328948

Claim:
A child seat with a seat shell which can be displaced to and fro between different positions (sitting position, reclining position, intermediate position(s)) on a base part, an actuating handle being provided on the front edge of the seat shell and being connected to a locking device by means of which the seat shell is secured in one of the different positions with respect to the base part in the normal inoperative state of the actuating handle and can be displaced by actuation of the actuating handle, the actuating handle being rotatable about an axis of rotation from the normal locking position into an unlocking position and being rotatable back from there into the locking position by means of a restoring spring device, and at the same time forming a displacing handle in the unlocking position to displace the seat shell with respect to the base part, characterized in that the actuating handle is designed as a rotary handle which can be rotated about an axis of rotation which, is at least approximately parallel to the front edge of the seat shell, from the normal locking position into an unlocking position and in that a slotted-guide device is provided on the base part and has at least one slotted-guide path which is designed with latching recesses for the different positions of the seat shell with respect to the base part, and the locking device has a connecting device, which is connected to the rotary handle, with at least one guide element guided along the at least one slotted-guide path and with at least one latching element matched to the latching recesses.
