Description

La présente invention a pour objet un appareil de puériculture relatif à l'apprentissage de la locomotion et destiné plus particulièrement à des bébés d'environ trois à douze mois.The present invention relates to a childcare device relating to the learning of locomotion and intended more particularly for babies of about three to twelve months.

Depuis plusieurs années, tous les pédiatres s'accordent pour conseiller aux parents de tenter dès que possible de stimuler les capacités tant physiques qu'intellectuelles de leur bébé en leur permettant un entraînement adapté à leur âge.For several years, all pediatricians agree to advise parents to try as soon as possible to stimulate the physical and intellectual capacities of their baby by allowing them a training adapted to their age.

Pour ces raisons, un grand nombre de jeux dits d'éveils sont apparus sur le marché ; ceux-ci ne peuvent, très souvent, pas être manipulés facilement par des enfants couchés dans leur berceau et sont exclusivement destinés à des enfants ayant atteint un âge suffisant pour maîtriser la position assise.For these reasons, a large number of so-called awakening games have appeared on the market; these cannot, very often, not be easily handled by children lying in their cradle and are exclusively intended for children who have reached a sufficient age to master the sitting position.

Le nombre de dispositifs ou jeux éducatifs destinés à l'éveil et à l'entraînement aussi bien physiques qu'intellectuels des bébés à partir de trois mois est en fait très limité.The number of educational devices or games intended for the awakening and training, both physical and intellectual of babies from three months is in fact very limited.

La présente invention a pour objet de combler cette lacune en proposant un appareil de puériculture permettant l'entraînement physique des bébés à partir de trois mois tout en amplifiant leur éveil par le plaisir du jeu et de l'observation dans une position naturelle et agréable.The object of the present invention is to fill this gap by proposing a childcare device allowing the physical training of babies from three months while amplifying their awakening by the pleasure of play and observation in a natural and pleasant position.

Cet appareil est caractérisé en ce qu'il se compose d'un châssis, notamment tubulaire, sur lequel est suspendu un élément support susceptible de maintenir le bébé notamment par la poitrine et le ventre en position à quatre pattes.This device is characterized in that it consists of a chassis, in particular tubular, on which is suspended a support element capable of holding the baby in particular by the chest and the belly in the four-legged position.

Toutes les mères de famille ont remarqué que, dès la naissance, les bébés éprouvent un plaisir tout particulier lorsqu'ils sont couchés sur le ventre et que c'est dans cette position qu'ils effectuent leurs premières tentatives de déplacement indépendant, tentatives qui ne peuvent pas être couronnées de succès tant que leur développement musculaire n'est pas suffisant.All mothers have noticed that from birth, babies experience a particular pleasure when they are lying on their stomachs and that it is in this position that they make their first attempts at independent movement, attempts which do not cannot be successful until their muscle development is sufficient.

Le principal intérêt de l'appareil qui fait l'objet de l'invention est de permettre à l'enfant d'avoir une autonomie dès l'âge de trois mois pour la motricité de ses membres tout en facilitant la musculation des bras, des cuisses, du dos et de la nuque.The main interest of the device which is the subject of the invention is to allow the child to have autonomy from the age of three months for the motor skills of its members while facilitating bodybuilding of the arms, thighs, back and neck.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, l'élément support est suspendu élastiquement au châssis.According to another characteristic of the invention, the support element is suspended elastically from the chassis.

Cette élasticité constitue l'une des caractéristiques essentielles du dispositif conforme à l'invention : elle permet, en effet, de lui imprimer un mouvement de sautillement combiné de droite à gauche et de bas en haut particulièrement agréable pour l'enfant. Ce mouvement très naturel permet de stimuler les facultés physiques et intellectuelles du bébé et exerce parallèlement une action de "bercement" de nature à l'apaiser.This elasticity constitutes one of the essential characteristics of the device according to the invention: it in fact makes it possible to impart to it a combined hopping movement from right to left and from bottom to top which is particularly pleasant for the child. This very natural movement makes it possible to stimulate the physical and intellectual faculties of the baby and at the same time exerts a "rocking" action likely to soothe him.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, l'élément support est en un matériau textile ou synthétique flexible, notamment molletonné, épousant la forme du ventre du bébé.According to another characteristic of the invention, the support element is made of a flexible textile or synthetic material, in particular fleece, conforming to the shape of the baby's belly.

Cet élément support est, de préférence, muni de deux orifices, notamment bordés de mousse, permettant le passage des jambes du bébé et coopérant avantageusement avec un rabat définissant une culotte permettant un maintien optima de celui-ci.This support element is preferably provided with two orifices, in particular bordered with foam, allowing the passage of the baby's legs and cooperating advantageously with a flap defining panties allowing optimum support of the latter.

Cette caractéristique permet de placer les bébés dans une position naturelle particulièrement agréable de nature à favoriser leur éveil en développant leurs facultés d'observation et en leur permettant de s'exercer à différents jeux (tableaux d'éveil, mobiles placés sur un portique devant eux..).This characteristic makes it possible to place the babies in a particularly pleasant natural position likely to favor their awakening by developing their faculties of observation and by allowing them to practice various games (awakening tables, mobiles placed on a gantry in front of them ..).

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, l'élément support est fixé au châssis au moyen de sangles réglables permettant de faire varier son inclinaison de la position allongée à la position debout.According to another characteristic of the invention, the support element is fixed to the chassis by means of adjustable straps making it possible to vary its inclination from the lying position to the standing position.

Cette caractéristique permet à l'appareil d'"évoluer" au fur et à mesure de la croissance de l'enfant et, également de transformer l'élément support en hamac, ou encore, en siège dès que le bébé a acquis un développement suffisant pour rester en position assise.This characteristic allows the device to "evolve" as the child grows and also transform the support element into a hammock, or even into a seat as soon as the baby has acquired sufficient development. to stay in a seated position.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, l'élément support est fixé au châssis, à sa partie avant située essentiellement au niveau des bras du bébé, au moyen de sangles rigides, à sa partie arrière située essentiellement au niveau des jambes du bébé, au moyen de sangles élastiques et le cas échéant à sa partie médiane au moyen de sangle annexes peu élastiques.According to another characteristic of the invention, the support element is fixed to the chassis, at its front part located essentially at the level of the baby's arms, by means of rigid straps, at its rear part located essentially at the level of the baby's legs, by means of elastic straps and, where appropriate, at its middle part by means of weak elastic annexes.

Cette caractéristique permet d'imprimer au dispositif un mouvement particulièrement attractif pour le bébé, et de nature à l'inciter à exercer aussi bien ses muscles que son activité intellectuelle en facilitant son adaptation aux jeux et, ce, qu'il soit en position sur le ventre ou assise.This characteristic makes it possible to impart to the device a movement which is particularly attractive to the baby, and of such a nature as to encourage him to exercise both his muscles and his intellectual activity in making it easier to adapt to games and whether it is on your stomach or sitting.

Les sangles annexes présentent l'intérêt de maintenir l'enfant en position debout.The additional straps have the advantage of keeping the child in a standing position.

Il est, bien entendu, impératif que le bébé, une fois mis en place sur l'élément support, ne risque pas de tomber.It is, of course, imperative that the baby, once placed on the support element, does not risk falling.

A cet effet, l'élément support est muni de lanières latérales formant ceinture et le cas échéant d'une mentonnière ou d'un filet de soutien pour le visage.To this end, the support element is provided with lateral straps forming a belt and, where appropriate, a chin strap or a support net for the face.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, l'élément support est constitué par une culotte se prolongeant, au niveau de la poitrine du bébé, par une bande, notamment un bourrelet en mousse replié en forme d'anse coopérant avec un harnais.According to another characteristic of the invention, the support element is constituted by pants extending, at the level of the baby's chest, by a band, in particular a foam bead folded in the shape of a loop cooperating with a harness.

Cette configuration particulière peut être utilisée aussi bien de la manière susmentionnée pour l'éveil corporel et l'apprentissage de la motricité des bras et des jambes des bébés à partir de trois mois que pour l'entraînement à la marche en position debout ; le bébé se trouve alors suspendu par la culotte.This particular configuration can be used both in the aforementioned manner for the awakening of the body and the learning of motor skills of the arms and legs of babies from three months as well as for walking training in a standing position; the baby is then suspended by the pants.

Bien entendu, la forme du châssis peut être quelconque sans pour cela sortir du cadre de l'invention ; on opte cependant le plus souvent pour une forme essentiellement parallélépipèdique. Le châssis peut, avantageusement, être muni de roulettes à sa partie inférieure, afin de permettre dans un premier temps de pousser l'appareil ; lorsque les muscles et les réflexes de l'enfant sont suffisamment développés, celui-ci peut avancer seul soit en position à quatre pattes soit debout.Of course, the shape of the chassis can be any without departing from the scope of the invention; however, most often we opt for an essentially parallelepiped shape. The chassis can, advantageously, be provided with rollers at its lower part, in order to initially allow the device to be pushed; when the child's muscles and reflexes are sufficiently developed, the child can move forward on his own, either on all fours or standing.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le châssis est muni d'un tapis de sol à sa partie inférieure ; il peut ainsi se transformer en parc, de préférence pliant, si on lui adjoint un filet de protection.According to another characteristic of the invention, the chassis is provided with a floor mat to its lower part; it can thus be transformed into a park, preferably folding, if a protective net is added to it.

Les caractéristiques de l'appareil de puériculture qui fait l'objet de l'invention seront décrites plus en détail en se référant aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels :
- la figure 1 est une vue schématique de l'appareil conforme à l'invention,
- les figures 2a et 2b sont respectivement des vues de devant et de dos de l'élément support,
- la figure 3 représente le châssis non muni de l'élément support, et
- les figures 4a et 4b sont des vues analogues respectivement aux figures 2a et 2b illustrant une variante de réalisation de l'élément support et du châssis.
The characteristics of the childcare device which is the subject of the invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a schematic view of the apparatus according to the invention,
FIGS. 2a and 2b are respectively front and back views of the support element,
FIG. 3 represents the chassis not provided with the support element, and
- Figures 4a and 4b are views similar to Figures 2a and 2b respectively illustrating an alternative embodiment of the support element and the chassis.

Selon la figure 1, l'appareil de puériculture se compose d'un châssis tubulaire parallélépipèdique 1 de préférence en acier inoxydable sur lequel est suspendu élastiquement un élément support 2 dont la partie arrière 3 épouse la forme du ventre d'un bébé âgé de trois à douze mois et est munie de deux orifices 4 destinés à permettre le passage des jambes du bébé. L'élément support 2 est fixé au châssis 1, à sa partie avant, au moyen de sangles rigides 5 et à sa partie arrière, au moyen de sangles élastiques 6 permettant au bébé de se balancer, ce qui correspond à une sensation particulièrement agréable.According to Figure 1, the childcare device consists of a rectangular tubular frame 1 preferably made of stainless steel on which is suspended elastically a support element 2 whose rear part 3 follows the shape of the belly of a baby aged three at twelve months and is provided with two orifices 4 intended to allow the passage of the baby's legs. The support element 2 is fixed to the chassis 1, at its front part, by means of rigid straps 5 and at its rear part, by means of elastic straps 6 allowing the baby to swing, which corresponds to a particularly pleasant feeling.

Les sangles 5 et 6 sont réglables de manière à pouvoir faire varier l'inclinaison de l'élément support 2 en fonction à la fois de l'âge du bébé et de l'effet recherché ; l'élément support 2 peut également faire office de hamac.The straps 5 and 6 are adjustable so as to be able to vary the inclination of the support element 2 as a function of both the age of the baby and the desired effect; the support element 2 can also act as a hammock.

Des lanières latérales 7 permettent, dans tous les cas, de maintenir le bébé et d'éviter tout risque de chute.Side straps 7 allow, in all cases, to hold the baby and avoid any risk of falling.

L'élément support 2 est, par ailleurs, muni d'un tapis de sol 8 ainsi que de roulettes 9 permettant son déplacement.The support element 2 is, moreover, provided with a floor mat 8 as well as wheels 9 allowing its movement.

Selon la figure 3, le châssis 1 non muni d'un élément support peut être utilisé en tant que parc. Il est particulièrement avantageux de lui donner une configuration permettant de le replier.According to Figure 3, the frame 1 not provided with a support element can be used as a park. It is particularly advantageous to give it a configuration allowing it to be folded.

Selon les figures 2a et 2b, l'élément support 2 porte, à sa partie arrière munie des orifices 4, un rabat définissant une culotte 10 qui se prolonge vers l'avant au niveau de la poitrine du bébé par un bourrelet en mousse 11 replié en forme d'anse qui porte les sangles rigides 5 et coopère avec un harnais 12 permettant de maintenir le bébé en position couchée sur le dos.According to Figures 2a and 2b, the support element 2 carries, at its rear part provided with the orifices 4, a flap defining a panty 10 which extends forward at the level of the baby's chest by a foam bead 11 folded in the shape of a loop which carries the rigid straps 5 and cooperates with a harness 12 to keep the baby in a lying position on the back.

Des sangles annexes peu élastiques 7′ fixées au châssis 1 permettent d'améliorer le maintien de l'enfant en position debout.Slightly elastic annex straps 7 ′ fixed to the chassis 1 make it possible to improve the child's posture while standing.

Une mentonnière 13 située à la partie avant de l'élément support 2 permet de maintenir le visage du bébé lorsque l'appareil est utilisé pour un très jeune enfant en position à quatre pattes.A chin rest 13 located at the front part of the support element 2 keeps the baby's face when the device is used for a very young child in a four-legged position.

Dans la variante de réalisation représentée sur les figures 4a et 4b, la partie arrière de l'élément support 2′ se prolonge par une double toile molletonnée qui se ferme autour des sangles de fixation 15, afin de constituer une surface de repos pour les jambes du bébé en position couchée. Ici les sangles 15 sont rigides et se fixent au châssis 1′ par des ressorts hélicoïdaux 16 pour jouer le même rôle que les sangles 6 des figures 2a et 2b. L'élément support 2′ en forme de nacelle se prolonge en outre â l'avant par une bande de tissu 17 qui s'accroche au châssis 1′ par les sangles rigides avant 18. Cette bande de tissu a pour fonction d'assurer un maintien optimal de la tête du bébé, lorsque celui-ci est couché sur le dos.In the alternative embodiment shown in FIGS. 4a and 4b, the rear part of the support element 2 ′ is extended by a double quilted fabric which closes around the fixing straps 15, in order to constitute a resting surface for the legs baby lying down. Here the straps 15 are rigid and are fixed to the frame 1 ′ by helical springs 16 to play the same role as the straps 6 of Figures 2a and 2b. The support element 2 ′ in the form of a nacelle is further extended at the front by a strip of fabric 17 which hooks to the frame 1 ′ by the rigid straps before 18. This strip of fabric has the function of ensuring a optimal support of the baby's head, when he is lying on his back.

Le châssis l′ illustré par les figures 4a et 4b constitue également une variante de réalisation de celui de la figure 1 en ce sens qu'il présente la forme d'un cadre tubulaire, ici rectangulaire, qui, au niveau de sa partie médiane, est supporté par une assise, non représentée, éventuellement munie de roulettes. Des articulations 19 à vis de blocage 20, permettent de régler l'inclinaison du cadre 1′ soutenant la nacelle 2′ lorsque le bébé est couché sur celle-ci.The frame l ′ illustrated by FIGS. 4a and 4b also constitutes an alternative embodiment of that of FIG. 1 in that it has the form of a tubular frame, here rectangular, which, at its middle part, is supported by a seat, not shown, possibly fitted with rollers. Joints 19 with locking screws 20, make it possible to adjust the inclination of the frame 1 ′ supporting the carrycot 2 ′ when the baby is lying on it.
