US Patent 6976685 Wheeled car seat

A wheeled car seat sized to hold an infant or young toddler in the seat of an automobile that can also be converted to a wheeled stroller is disclosed herein. The wheeled car seat is made from materials to protect the occupant while at the same time keeping the weight of the wheeled car seat to a minimum. When removing the wheeled car seat from an automobile, the user need not remove the child passenger while the user converts the wheeled car to a stroller, but instead only need lift the car seat above the ground and allow a pivotal chassis to swing open and expose wheels to the ground. When the wheeled car seat is configured as a car seat, the wheels are enclosed to prevent dirt from getting on the upholstery of the automobile.
