a display mechanism disposed at a front end of the base and having an indicating window; and
a first indicating mechanism provided on the base and having different indicating areas selectively corresponding to the indicating window, the different indicating areas indicating different use positions of the base;
wherein the first indicating mechanism comprises a first indicating member slidably connected to the base, the first indicating member has a first indicating area and a second indicating area aligned with the indicating window selectively;
wherein the first indicating mechanism further comprises a trigger movably connected to the base, the trigger is connected to the first indicating member, when subjected to a force, the trigger drives the first indicating member to slide, such that the first indicating area or the second indicating area is aligned with the indicating window;
wherein the trigger is pivotally connected to the base and has an abutting end and a connecting end, the abutting end and the connecting end form an angle with respect to a pivot of the trigger, the connecting end is connected to one end of the first indicating member, when subjected to the force, the abutting end enables the trigger to rotate, so as to drive the first indicating member to slide.
2. The safety indicator of claim 1 , wherein when the base is in a first use position, the trigger is activated to drive the first indicating member to slide, such that the second indicating area is aligned with the indicating window.
3. A safety indicator, adapted for a child safety seat having a base, a seat body latched to the base, and a support leg pivotally connected to the base, the safety indicator comprising:
a first indicating mechanism configured to indicate a use position of the base;
a second indicating mechanism configured to indicate an engagement state between the base and the seat body;
a third indicating mechanism configured to indicate a use state of the support leg; and
a display mechanism provided at a front end of the base and having a plurality of indicating windows;
wherein the first indicating mechanism, the second indicating mechanism, and the third indicating mechanism have different indicating areas, respectively, and each of the plurality of indicating windows is configured to display the different indicating areas of the first indicating mechanism, the second indicating mechanism, and the third indicating mechanism;
wherein each of the first indicating mechanism, the second indicating mechanism, and the third indicating mechanism has an indicating member, and each indicating member has a first indicating area and a second indicating area aligned with the corresponding indicating window selectively;
wherein the first indicating mechanism further comprises a trigger movably connected to the base, the indicating member is slidably connected to the base and connected to the trigger, when subjected to a force, the trigger drives the indicating member connected thereto to slide, such that the first indicating area or the second indicating area is aligned with the indicating window;
wherein the trigger is pivotally connected to the base and has an abutting end and a connecting end, the abutting end and the connecting end form an angle with respect to a pivot of the trigger, the connecting end is connected to one end of the first indicating member, when subjected to the force, the abutting end enables the trigger to rotate, so as to drive the first indicating member to slide.
4. The safety indicator of claim 3 , wherein when the base is in a first use position, the trigger is activated to drive the indicating member connected thereto to slide, such that the second indicating area is aligned with the indicating window.
5. The safety indicator of claim 3 , wherein the indicating member of the second indicating mechanism is connected to an engagement mechanism located between the base and the seat body, the engagement mechanism, when engaged or separated, drives the indicating member of the second indicating mechanism to move.
6. The safety indicator of claim 3 , wherein the indicating member of the third indicating mechanism is connected to the support leg, the support leg, when supported on a vehicle floor, drives the indicating member of the third indicating mechanism to act.
7. A child safety seat, comprising:
a base;
a seat body latched to the base;
a support leg pivotally connected to the base; and
the safety indicator of claim 1 .
8. The child safety seat of claim 7 , wherein the base comprises a seat body support and a rotatable base body rotatably connected to the seat body support, the first indicating mechanism is activated by rotation of the rotatable base body.
9. The child safety seat of claim 8 , wherein the first indicating mechanism comprises a trigger and a first indicating member, the first indicating member is slidably connected to the seat body support and has a first indicating area and a second indicating area, the trigger is movably connected to the seat body support and connected to the first indicating member, the trigger, when activated by the rotatable base body, drives the first indicating member to slide, such that the first indicating area or the second indicating area is aligned with the indicating window.
10. The child safety seat of claim 9 , wherein a front end and a rear end of the rotatable base body have protrusions, respectively, when the rotatable base body rotates to a forward or a reverse use position, the protrusion presses the trigger to drive the indicating member to slide, such that the second indicating area is aligned with the indicating window.
11. The child safety seat of claim 8 , wherein a pivot seat is disposed at a front end of the base to pivotally connect the support leg, and the indicating window is provided on a top surface of the pivot seat.
