Abstract:
A child restraint includes a juvenile seat having a seat bottom and a seat back extending upwardly from the seat bottom. The juvenile seat further includes a cupholder coupled to the seat bottom.

Claim (Index 14):
A juvenile seat comprising\n a seat bottom, a cupholder support coupled to the seat bottom, the cupholder support including a cup-receiver platform having a top wall formed to include a lock-passage aperture and a lock retainer coupled to the underside of the top wall and arranged to extend downwardly away from the top wall and partly around the lock-passage aperture formed in the top wall, and a cupholder including a cup receiver having a floor and a side wall arranged to cooperate with the floor to form a cup-receiving cavity, and wherein the side wall of the cup receiver includes a deformable portion that is unsupported by the cupholder support and is configured to deform elastically to change from an initial shape and move relative to the floor to assume a different temporary shape and reduce a volume of the cup-receiving cavity temporarily only during exposure of the deformable portion to an external impact force and to return to the initial shape following cessation of the external impact force, the deformable portion is made of a deformable elastic material, and the cupholder also includes cup-receiver lock coupled to the floor of the cup receiver for engaging a downwardly facing surface of the lock retainer to retain the floor of the cup receiver in a fixed position on the cup-receiver platform of the cupholder support to locate the deformable portion of the side wall of the cup-receiver in spaced-apart relation to the cup receiver platform of the cupholder support, wherein the floor of the cup receiver includes an interior layer and an exterior layer, the side wall and the interior layer of the floor cooperate to form a monolithic component made of a deformable elastic material and shaped to define the cup-receiving cavity, the exterior layer of the floor is made of a relatively rigid material and is coupled to an underside of the interior layer of the floor and to the cup-receiver lock to retain the cup-receiver lock in a stationary position on the floor of the cup receiver, wherein the cup-receiver lock and the exterior layer of the floor cooperate to form a monolithic component, wherein the cup-receiver lock is a twist lock that is coupled to an underside of the exterior layer of the floor and the twist lock includes a tab-support sleeve and first and second anchor tabs, the tab-support sleeve has an upper end coupled to the underside of the exterior layer of the floor and an opposite lower end coupled to the first and second anchor tabs, and each of the first and second anchor tabs is arranged to lie in spaced-apart relation to the underside of the exterior layer of the floor to provide a platform-receiving space therebetween that receives a portion of the top wall and a companion portion of the lock retainer to establish an interference fit with the floor of the cup receiver and the first and second anchor tabs when the floor of the cup receiver is retained in the fixed position on the cup-receiver platform of the cupholder support.
