Abstract

A multi-position child safety seat having a base and a separable seat shell supported by the base wherein the base comprises a movable block that alters the angle of the seat shell dependent upon the position of the block and provides for at least two usable positions of the seat shell. The seat shell includes a latching mechanism for securing the seat shell to the base which is operable in any of the at least two positions. The movable block is hingedly connected to the base and preferably movable between two generally opposing positions corresponding to two pre-determined seat shell positions and may include restraint provisions to preclude unintentional movement of the block.
