4. The child restraint according to claim 1 , wherein the linkage assembly is positioned between the indicator device and the foot, and wherein the linkage assembly comprises a connecting link and a driving link, such that the foot triggers the indicator device by the connecting link and the driving link.

5. The child restraint according to claim 1 , wherein the foot has a plurality of locking portions, and the connecting arm has a lower end and an upper end, wherein the lower end of the connecting arm is configured to engage with one of the locking portions to lock a variable angle between the base body and the foot, and the upper end of the connecting arm is connected to the releasing member such that the connecting arm is configured to be driven by the releasing member to disengage from the one of the locking portions.

6. The child restraint according to claim 5 , wherein the releasing member is configured to operate the connecting arm via a connecting member.

7. The child restraint according to claim 5 , wherein

the lower end of the connecting arm is connected to at least one pin to engage with the one of the locking portions; and

the connecting arm is pivotally coupled to the linkage assembly to be movable relative to the base body.

8. The child restraint according to claim 5 , further comprising:

a resilient part connected between the connecting arm and the base body, such that the lower end of the connecting arm maintains engaging with the one of the locking portions.

9. The child restraint according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a resilient element connected between the foot and the upper shell to maintain the foot away from the upper shell.

10. The child restraint according to claim 1 , wherein the base body is secured by the securing device to compress the base body toward the foot, such that the indicator device is triggered by being in contact with the foot.

11. The child restraint according to claim 1 , wherein the base body further comprises a clamping mechanism configured to clamp with the securing device.

12. The child restraint according to claim 11 , wherein the clamping mechanism comprises:

a pressing unit pivotally connected to the upper shell of the base body, wherein the pressing unit and the upper shell are configured to clamp with the securing device when the pressing unit and the upper shell are in a closed state; and

a spring-biased button engaged with the pressing unit and pivotally connected to the upper shell of the base body, wherein the spring-biased button, in a normal position, is configured to retain the pressing unit and the upper shell in the closed state, and wherein when the spring-biased button is pressed to a biased position, the spring-biased button is configured to release the pressing unit from the upper shell.

13. A child restraint used in coupling with a safety seat, comprising:

a base body configured to be positioned on a vehicle seat by a securing device, wherein the base body comprises an upper shell coupling with the safety seat;

a foot coupled to a bottom of the base body;

a resilient member disposed between the base body and the foot to maintain a compressible distance between the foot and the base body; and

an indicator device disposed on the base body and located above the foot, configured to display a first signal when the base body is not secured by the securing device and a second signal when the base body is secured by the securing device, wherein the indicator device comprises:

a window connected to the upper shell;

a first indicator member configured to show a first color as the first signal through the window;

a second indicator member configured to show a second color as the second signal through the window; and

a resilient component maintaining the first indicator member to correspond to the window to show only the first signal through the window;

wherein when the base body is secured by the securing device, the base body is compressed toward the foot, such that the foot drives the second indicator member of the indicator device to correspond to the window to show the second signal through the window.

14. A child restraint used in coupling with a safety seat, comprising:

a base body configured to be positioned on a vehicle seat by a securing device, wherein the base body comprises an upper shell coupling with the safety seat;

a foot coupled to a bottom of the base body;

a resilient member disposed between the base body and the foot to maintain a compressible distance between the foot and the base body; and

an indicator device disposed on the base body and located above the foot, configured to display a first signal when the base body is not secured by the securing device and a second signal when the base body is secured by the securing device, wherein the indicator device comprises:

a first display device configured to display the first signal;

a second display device configured to display the second signal;

a power supply configured to supply power to one of the first display device and the second display device, wherein the power supply is configured to supply power to the first display device in a first power state and to supply power to the second display device in a second power state; and
