The Baby First Design Team drew inspiration from the limitations of traditional safety car seats. Recognizing the need for a product that is adaptable to children of all ages, the team sought to create a design that not only extends the service life of the car seat but also simplifies its installation and rotation. The result is a product that embodies the well-rounded and circumspect care of a mother for her newborn.
The Kango Dad Funtrip V141 stands out with its unique properties. It offers three installation types, making it suitable for children of all ages. The car seat features a continuous 360-degree rotation for easy and safe installation. With one-hand operation, parents can conveniently adjust the seat's inclination and rotation. The ergonomic cushion supports the baby's spine, and the double-shell structure minimizes injuries during impact. This product has passed the 3C certification of China and the latest ECE R129.
The realization of this design involved a one-time injection molding process for the eggshell-shaped case and key parts. The internal double-layer shell is formed by a blow molding process, reinforced by a high-strength steel structure for anti-collision, heat, and pressure resistance. The use of high-density slow-rebounding sponge pillow and high-efficiency energy absorption HDPE, PP, and PA materials ensures the child's safety during a collision.
The design process was backed by extensive research. The Baby First Research and Development Department conducted an in-depth survey of families with children and existing child safety car seats on the market. The team identified the need for a car seat that is easy to use and quick to install, leading to the creation of the Kango Dad Funtrip V141.
The design faced several challenges, including ensuring safety for children from newborn to 12 years while meeting the certification standards of China and Europe. The team also aimed to enable one-hand, one-key operation for reclining and 360-degree rotation. Despite these challenges, the team successfully designed a simple, easy-to-use product that has obtained a patent from the innovation organization.
The Kango Dad Funtrip V141 is a testament to the Baby First Design Team's commitment to innovation and child safety. The design has been recognized with a Silver A' Baby, Kids and Children's Products Design Award in 2022, a testament to its remarkable design and innovation. This award is given to designs that exhibit outstanding expertise, innovation, and artistic skill, introducing positive feelings, amazement, and wonder.
