Claims33
An adjustable infant seat assembly comprising:
- a first seat portion configured to support an infant's upper body;
- a second seat portion configured to support an infant's lower body;
- a junction defined between the first seat portion and the second seat portion that provides a pivot connection for the first seat portion and the second seat portion;
- and
- a plurality of lateral containment supports, each lateral containment support being arranged on a respective lateral side of either the first seat portion or the second seat portion;
- wherein an angular orientation is configured to be adjustable (i) between the first seat portion and the second seat portion, and (ii) between at least one of the lateral containment supports and at least one of the first seat portion or the second seat portion, and
- the first seat portion and the second seat portion are independently adjustable relative to one another.
4 more elements
A method for adjusting an angular orientation of at least one portion of an infant seat, the method comprising:
- providing an adjustable infant seat assembly including:
- a first seat portion, a second seat portion, and a junction defined between the first seat portion and the second seat portion, the junction providing a pivot connection for both the first seat portion and the second seat portion;
- a plurality of lateral containment supports, each lateral containment support being arranged on a respective lateral side of either the first seat portion or the second seat portion;
- a first adjustment assembly configured to adjust an angle of the first seat portion relative to the junction;
- a second adjustment assembly configured to adjust an angle of the second seat portion relative to the junction;
- and
- at least one third adjustment assembly configured to adjust an angle of the plurality of lateral containment supports relative to a respective one of the first seat portion or the second seat portion;
- and
- adjusting a relative position (i) between the first seat portion and the second seat portion via engagement with at least one of the first adjustment assembly or the second adjustment assembly, or (ii) between at least one of the lateral containment supports and at least one of the first seat portion or the second seat portion via engagement with the at least one third adjustment assembly.

An adjustable infant seat assembly comprising:
- a first seat portion configured to support an infant's upper body;
- a second seat portion configured to support an infant's lower body;
- and
- a junction defined between the first seat portion and the second seat portion that provides a pivot connection for the first seat portion and the second seat portion;
- wherein the first seat portion and the second seat portion are adjustable independent from each other, such that a first angular position of the first seat portion relative to the junction is adjustable without adjusting the second seat portion, and a second angular position of the second seat portion relative to the junction is adjustable without adjusting the first seat portion.
