Abstract

The headrest ( 2 ) is liftable, comprises wings ( 11 ) and ( 12 ) and is provided with passages ( 3 ) for the belting (C) of the motorcar's safety belt. The backrest ( 1 ) does also characteristically comprise passages ( 4 ) for the belting (C) of the motorcar's safety belt, these latter passages because of the fact of being positioned in a lower position as compared with those of the headrest ( 2 ) being provided to be used when the child is of a short size so that it can thus be properly held back by the safety belt. A characteristic feature also lies in the fact that the wings ( 11 ) and ( 12 ) are fitted in a linked connection to the sides of the headrest ( 2 ), this latter having a mechanism ( 13, 14, 15 and 18 ) linking them to each other and locking them thus selectively setting them at a given angle with respect to the headrest ( 2 ).
