ABSTRACT:
A reclining adjustment mechanism (20) for continuously varying the reclining attitude of a seat main unit (2) of an infant restraining protective seat (1) is provided, and a protecting member (10), which does not allow a vehicle seat belt (7) to come into direct contact with the seat main unit (2) when the seat belt (7) is tightened, is interposed between the seat belt (7) and the seat main unit (2). Further, an engaging mechanism (2c, 10d, 11, 12), which causes the protecting member (10) and the seat main unit (2) to engage when the vehicle undergoes deceleration in excess of a predetermined value, is provided. Accordingly, the reclining attitude of the seat main unit can be adjusted continuously by the reclining adjusting mechanism. As a result, the seat belt does not directly engage the seat main unit (2) owing to the protecting member when an infant restraining protective seat is secured to the vehicle seat by the seat belt. Accordingly, the reclining attitude of the seat main unit can be adjusted continuously with the seat belt left in the tightened state. Since the protecting member and the seat main unit are engaged by the engaging mechanism when the vehicle undergoes a large amount of deceleration, a change in reclined attitude owing to movement of the seat main unit is reliably prevented.
