Child booster seat with swivel capability

1. A child booster seat comprising:

a base assembly comprising a stationary base part and a swivel base part movably coupled to the stationary base part;

a seat carried on the swivel base part, the seat and swivel base part rotatable relative to the stationary base part between at least two different seat facing orientations; and

a latch system comprising at least one latch mechanism and two or more actuators spaced apart on the child booster seat, each actuator operably coupled to the at least one latch mechanism,

wherein the latch system comprises a circumferential latch ring, the latch ring carrying a cam pen of the at least one latch mechanism, wherein a latch pin is seated in the cam pen; and

wherein, when any selected actuator of the two or more actuators is actuated, the latch ring and the cam pen move which in turn moves the latch pin and the at least one latch mechanism is released allowing the seat to be swiveled relative to the stationary base part.

2. A child booster seat according to claim 1 , further comprising two of the latch mechanisms disposed generally opposite one another on a portion of the child booster seat, each of the two latch mechanism having one of the two or more actuators operably coupled thereto.

3. A child booster seat according to claim 1 , wherein the stationary base part is a lower base part and the swivel base part is an upper base part mounted on a top side of the stationary base part.

4. A child booster seat according to claim 3 , wherein the seat and the swivel base part are supported by the stationary base part.

5. A child booster seat according to claim 1 , wherein any selected one of the two or more actuators can be actuated with one hand whereby the seat can be rotated with the one hand.

6. A child booster seat according to claim 1 , wherein the latch ring and cam pen are formed as one contiguous integral part.

7. A child booster seat according to claim 1 , further comprising two of the latch mechanisms and two of the actuators, one actuator operably coupled to a respective one of the latch mechanisms.

8. A child booster seat according to claim 7 , further comprising:

a latch ring carrying two cam pens, one cam pen for each of the latch mechanisms, the latch ring operably coupled to each of the two or more actuators;

two latch pins, one seated in each of the cam pens; and

ramp surfaces on the cam pens, the ramp surfaces configured to move the corresponding latch pins between a latched position and an unlatched position by selectively actuating a selected one of the two actuators.

9. A child booster seat according to claim 1 , wherein the latch system further comprises a circumferential latch ring captured between the stationary base part and the swivel base part.

10. A child booster seat comprising:

a base assembly comprising

a stationary base part comprising a track ring; and

a swivel base part movably coupled to the stationary base part;

a seat carried on the swivel base part, the seat and swivel base part rotatable relative to the stationary base part between at least two different seat facing orientations; and

a latch system comprising:

a latch ring captured between the stationary base part and the swivel base part over the track ring;

a plurality of latch mechanisms; and

a plurality of actuators, each of the plurality of latch mechanisms having one of the plurality of actuators operably couple thereto, the plurality of actuators spaced apart on the child booster seat, wherein each of the plurality of actuators is fixed to a portion of the latch ring and is exposed on an exterior of the base assembly, and

wherein, when any selected actuator of the plurality of actuators is actuated, the plurality of latch mechanisms is released allowing the seat to be swiveled relative to the stationary base part.

11. A child booster seat according to claim 10 , wherein the plurality of latch mechanisms comprises two latch mechanism disposed opposite one another on the base assembly.
