SIDE IMPACT PROTECTION MECHANISM

A side impact protection mechanism is provided and is disposed on a lateral wing of any component of a child carrier and includes a side impact protection block, a locking component and an operating component. The side impact protection block is switchable between a folded position and an unfolded position, so that the side impact protection block is closely fitted with or at least partially protrudes from the lateral wing. The locking component is switchable between a locking position and a releasing position, so that the side impact protection block is restrained from leaving from the unfolded position or allowed to pivot from the unfolded position to the folded position. The operating component can drive the locking component to move toward the releasing position.
