## Abstract

A stand system suspends a baby car seat on baby car seat sling in which the baby car seat may pivot freely in any direction. A mounting plate elevated above the floor by three elongated leg supports attaches to the baby car seat sling harnessing a baby car seat is used as a platform for holding the suspended baby car seat in a laying position located below the mounting plate above the floor. Each elongated leg equal in length comprise 5 dowel sections. A three-way brace across the bottom of the elongated legs interconnects the elongated leg's foot-end to a center point. The disclosed stand system which is the product invention may be easily assembled by hand for product use and disassembled for compact storage and ease of transportation.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A stand system intended for suspending, a baby car seat suspended on a baby car seat sling, wherein the baby car seat sling has a strap harness that extends around a first side, a second side and bottom contours of the baby car seat rigid shell and strap ends meet at a suspension point junction above the baby car seat, wherein the suspension point junction on the baby car seat sling hangs from the stand system; the stand system comprising:
a mounting plate configured to be mounted above the suspension point junction on the baby car seat sling harnessing a baby car seat,
wherein the mounting plate comprises of a block containing three internal sockets with a plurality of threads and exposes a closed loop anchor bolt located on a center of a bottom-side surface of the mounting plate and
a spring with matching ends, wherein a first end of the spring connects to the anchor bolt and a second end configured to be connected to the suspension point junction for the suspension of a baby car seat on a sling, and
a bolt partially embedded in the mounting plate located on a center of a top surface of the mounting plate exposes a plurality of threads above the top surface of the mounting plate for supporting a load;
a structural frame comprises of three elongated legs, wherein each leg having a head-end and a foot-end, wherein each elongated leg assembly comprises a plurality of dowel sections assembled in an end-to-end relationship and cascadable in a series of four intermediary dowel sections and one foot-end dowel section, wherein the four intermediary dowel sections each having a male-end and a female-end and the one foot-end dowel section having a male-end and a truncated-end, wherein each of the male-ends of the intermediary dowel section and the male-end of the one-foot end dowel section connects to the respective female ends of the intermediary dowel section thereby forming the elongated leg comprising a head-end and a truncated-end,
wherein the head-ends interconnects to the respective internal socket at a fixed angular position, equidistant, and midway between the center and edge of the bottom surface of the mounting plate, and
a bottom of a foot connected to a truncated-end dowel section of the elongated leg for resting on a surface of a floor; and
a three-way brace connected to the truncated-end dowel section of each elongated leg interconnects each of the three elongated legs at the foot to a junction ring centered across the bottom, wherein
a bracing link is affixed onto the truncated-end dowel section onto a rubber foot secured by a crimp clasp, wherein the bracing link affixed onto the truncated-end dowel section interconnects the three elongated legs with the junction ring centered across the bottom.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The stand system of claim 1 further comprising the load, wherein the load rests on top of the stand system comprising the mounting plate, used as a platform that is elevated above the floor surface, wherein the load rests on the top surface of the mounting plate.
