Description

The invention relates to a modular device for baby and toddler care for use on a standard household appliance (such as washing machine, dryer, refrigerator) or furniture with storage space and a flexibly deployable fourth side border as fall protection. This changing table, which combines a variety of functions in a compact manner, is particularly suitable for urban living situations in which an optimal use of the available living space is necessary.

Known devices for infant and toddler care can basically be divided as follows.

Fixed changing tables, which are usually in the nursery. These usually consist of a built-up with a dresser winding surface. Nevertheless, these furniture have the following disadvantages. As a rule, these furniture occupy considerable space due to the size, which is often limited in apartments. Furthermore, it is advisable - especially in cold seasons - not to care for the child in the bedroom, which is ventilated before bed rest. Instead, it is practicable, the child in z. B. heated bathroom, where the washing machine is often located to prepare for the bed, while the bedroom is ventilated.

With wheels provided winding devices that are flexible to use locally. This furniture is usually smaller than fixed changing tables, but still require additional space. In addition, changing surface and storage space are usually small. In addition to the already tight winding area, this is usually barely edged and thus the child is insufficiently protected against falling down.

Care devices for putting on the bathtub. Although these furniture offer not only a changing area but also an integrated baby bath, they also have various defects. They are hardly provided with storage space or storage space for diapers, care utensils and children's clothing. Therefore, it may be necessary to leave the changing table or even the bathroom before or during baby care and bring in the appropriate items.

Changing attachments or pads for existing furniture or household appliances. These can be flexibly applied to existing furniture and appliances in the household and accordingly require no additional space. A disadvantage, however, in the known devices that they have on the one hand no additional storage space for baby care necessary materials and, and that they do not bring to the other the winding surface on an ergonomic working person for the nursing person. For example, the standard household appliances usually have a height of 85 cm and are thus about 15 to 20 cm too low to maintain a baby permanently comfortable and back-friendly.

All previously described winding devices have in common that they usually have no protection of the child from falling in the access area of the caregiver.

In the following, known winding and care devices with special functions are analyzed.

DE 20 2004 004 219 U1 discloses a changing table which can be placed on household appliances. The changing table consists of four legs and a three-sided edged winding plate. The disadvantage of this construction is firstly the lack of storage space for wrapping and care utensils, as well as the low working height for the caregiver.

DE 10 2009 066 116 A1 also discloses a changing attachment for household appliances or furniture. This essay consists of a base plate, a winding plate and an intermediate fan element. A fall protection does not contain the construction. In addition, it is envisaged that the subjects can be reached via introduced in the winding plate flaps. This construction seems impractical because you can not open the flaps unhindered when a child or baby is on the changing surface. An unobstructed storage space does not include this construction.

Another winding attachment for household appliances is from the FR2732569A1 known. In addition to a three-sided wrapped wrapping area, this essay has a construction to extend the wrapping area beyond its basic depth. In addition, however, this embodiment lacks the following characteristics: storage space for changing and care utensils, ergonomic and back-friendly working height, and a protection of the child from falling down in the access area of the caregiver.

The invention has for its object to provide a space-saving winding device as an essay for household standard equipment or furniture that also fulfills the following functions: storage space and unhindered storage options for wrapping and care devices, ergonomic and back-friendly working height for the caregiver, and a flexible Crash protection for the child. The object of the invention is achieved according to the features of the claims 1 to 3 by a commode-like furniture that is placed on a standard in the household standard device or furniture and is designed so that there is a storage space under the winding surface, which results from the fact that the changing table a base plate, which rests on the household appliance or furniture, is enclosed by three sides and contains a fan partition as a spacer to the winding surface. Furthermore, a storage board is attached to a side wall. The fall protection arises from the fact that the winding surface is bordered by three fixed sides and has a flexibly deployable to the front fourth Seitenumrandung kept in the idle state pushed under the winding surface and inserted in the operating state in two slot openings in front of the winding surface.

The individual functions and their execution according to the invention are explained below.

The changing table keeps a storage space for supplies of consumables, which arises because the construction of a base plate ( 10 ), which rests on a household appliance or furniture, from three sides ( 12 and 13 ) and on which a distance-maintaining element ( 20 and 21 ) to the overlying winding plate ( 11 ) is located. This creates on the one hand a storage space for supplies between the rear wall ( 13 ), the side walls ( 12 ) and the rear wall of the fan element ( 20 ), via the foldable winding plate ( 11 ) is achieved. On the other hand, this construction creates at the front of the changing table directly accessible storage compartments for care utensils, such as diapers and spare clothes. These are created by the between base plate ( 10 ) and winding plate ( 11 ) introduced fan elements ( 20 and 21 ). In addition, on the side walls of the changing table a storage board ( 22 ) to be assembled. This constructive solution gives access to the things needed, so that neither the changing table nor, if applicable, the child must be left unattended on the changing mat before or during the care process. In addition, by the distance-holding element ( 20 and 21 ) brought the winding plate to a working height that is permanently ergonomic for the caregiver.

Furthermore, a fall protection should be integrated, which protects the children during the first independent movements. In this case, the winding surface of the wrapping table of perpendicular to each other standing solid side walls ( 12 ), a fixed rear wall ( 14 ) and a fourth variable page ( 30 ) in the access area of the parents. In addition, it should be avoided that the flexibly to be set up fourth page in the absence of use needs in the access area of the parents, as a single component is loose storage or access to the storage areas under the winding surface blocks. This problem has been solved in that at the bottom of the winding surface two groove blocks ( 31 ) are attached to the way that they keep the fourth flexible side under the winding surface in the absence of use; and in operation have emergency openings into which the fourth flexible side can be placed vertically.

The side walls ( 12 ) and the back wall ( 13 ) enclose the base plate ( 10 ) down with a small overhang to create a fit that ensures a good grip of the winder on the home appliance. Regardless, the device can also be used on other furniture such. B. chests are set up. In this case, z. B. provide an angle element for screwing between the changing table and room wall for more stability.

The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying description of drawings of an embodiment. In the drawings show:

1 and 2 show a spatial representation of the changing table, on the one hand with closed and the other with an open winding plate ( 11 ) and the storage space underneath, as well as the directly accessible storage compartments.

3 shows on average how the storage space under the hinged winding plate is formed, in which the base plate ( 10 ) from the side walls ( 12 ) and the back wall ( 13 ) and a compartment separation ( 20 and 21 ) is arranged. The winding plate is hinged, in which between the side walls, first a hinged-folding bar ( 14 ) is attached. In this are the hinges over which the winding surface ( 11 ) is opened upwards. When closed, the winding plate on the back wall of the compartment separation ( 20 ) filed. In addition, this figure shows as the fourth variable page ( 30 ) for fall protection in the resting state under the winding plate ( 11 ) is stored.

4 shows the changing table with the optionally attached side shelf ( 22 ), which offers additional storage options for care utensils. In addition, clarified 4 like the wrapping area ( 11 ) of the wrapping table of right-angled solid sidewalls ( 12 ), a fixed rear wall ( 13 ) and the fourth variable page ( 30 ) in the access area of the parents in order to protect children from falling during the first independent movements. The height is the fourth variably deployable Page chosen so that the nursing person can easily reach and care for the child even when the fourth page is set up.

5 shows like the fourth page that can be set up variably ( 30 ) under the winding plate ( 11 ) is pulled out to then vertically into the corresponding constructed groove blocks ( 31 ).

6 and 7 show on average in the overview and as a detail as the fourth variable positionable page ( 30 ) in the correspondingly constructed groove blocks ( 31 ) is introduced so that it is stable and secured against possible movements of the child upright. The groove blocks, as in 8th are shown with a vertical opening ( 32 ), in which the fourth page (4) 30 ) is introduced. Here is the fourth variable page ( 30 ) finally into the vertical opening ( 32 ) introduced stopper ( 34 ) (eg a dowel). The vertical paragraph ( 33 ) of the groove blocks forms the support surface for the fourth variable side ( 30 ) when stowed handy under the winding plate ( 11 ) is located.
