Child safety seats, also referred to as child passenger restraint systems, have been designed to provide protection for children of different heights and weights.


In recent years, the number of families using child safety seats has been increasing, and people's awareness of safety is gradually strengthening.


Since the 1980s, innovative technology for child safety seats in Europe, the United States, and Australia, as well as industry standards and national legislation, has rapidly evolved.


The child safety seat market has begun to blossom with technological innovation, evolving materials, and processes. The product range is gradually becoming more diverse.


Entering the 21st century, child safety seats are paying more attention to comfort and convenience in addition to further enhancing safety. Intelligent innovation is developing at a rapid pace.


Child safety seats are designed differently for children of different ages. There are types that are specifically designed for newborns (0-15 months) and others that can adapt to the design of children of all ages.


Generally, the seat consists of the skeleton, the outer layer of cushioning anti-collision system, the internal comfort layer, seat belts, and more.


The primary function of the seat was invented to protect children's safety when danger arises, which means that the material must have good impact resistance, and the seat needs to protect the entire body. The design is also more complex. The skeleton part typically uses metal materials. Steel skeletons can effectively improve the impact resistance of the seat, but the cost is higher.


The steel structure body is mainly used in the event of a car accident, and it can block the collision of external objects. In rollover or when encountering crushing, it can support enough space to avoid secondary injuries.


The outer layer of cushioning material is another important part of the seat. This part is filled with cushioning material to absorb energy during impact and protect the child's safety. Normal car seats use soft foam polyurethane foam for comfort, but the seat structure is more complex compared to a normal seat structure.


The filling material is divided into two parts: external hard or semi-hard impact protection material and internal soft comfort material. As seat users are children, there is a high demand for odor, and now the use of EPS has been gradually reduced.


For adults, the spine, cervical vertebrae, and skull have already fully developed, and only a seat belt is needed. For children between 0-4 years old, their bodies are softer, and a seat belt alone is not enough to ensure safety.


Therefore, five-point seat belts are used, and a filling sponge is used in the force part to reduce pressure to ensure enough comfort. Older children can directly use the car seat belt.


The installation of the base is also an important part of the seat. When the child is not fully developed, a rear-facing seat should be used. Many seats use a two-way base that can be changed at any time to accommodate children of all ages.


Child traffic safety is a comprehensive project. For every family, a single slip-up can result in unbearable pain. There is no other probability for the safety of a child's life, only 0% and 100%. Therefore, the use of a child safety seat is a vital aspect of ensuring the safety of children in vehicles.
