Definitions

  • the invention relates to a carrying device for children, also intended for use as an insert in a child's car seat.
  • the disadvantages of the known devices is that they are usually relatively large, thus taking up a lot of space, they can be unwieldy and have to be secured or mounted in the car, or in another child's seat.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a new carrying device for children, which device is also intended for use in a child's seat.
  • the carrying device should also be able to be used for children who are a little too small for a standard child's car seat, with the result that the device fills the child's car seat in such a manner that the safety requirements are still fulfilled.
  • this device should be easy to place in the seat and easy to remove, thus making it easy to bring the child along and transport it over short distances, and possibly that the device can be mounted in a carrying harness of a suitable kind.
  • the invention also comprises a special carrying harness for use in connection with the carrying device.
  • a simple and user-friendly carrying device for small children has been obtained, which simultaneously offers the possibility of placing the carrying device with the child comfortably and securely in a conventional child's car seat, thus enabling the child together with the carrying device to be strapped securely in the seat or the chair by means of the chair's safety belt device.
  • the carrying device When a child is carried in winter from a warm house to a cold car, it is also important for the carrying device to keep the child warm during transport and preferably also during the first phase of transport in a car, until the effects of the car's or the vehicle's heater have been felt. The same also applies in the opposite direction when the child has to be taken out of a warm car and brought out into the cold.
  • the carrying device according to the present invention also fulfils these requirements.
  • the device according to the invention is equipped with a single carrying strap on each side permits it to be gripped like an ordinary bag in the simplest possible manner.
  • suitable attachment means e.g. rings or lugs
  • a particularly advantageous design for such a carrying harness is of the diagonal broad band type which is carried diagonally over one shoulder.
  • the carrying device is generally indicated by 1 and comprises a carrying part 2, in which the child lies, and which is made of a relatively thick, soft and flexible material, thus enabling the carrying part 2 to enfold the body of the child placed therein.
  • the carrying part In the areas surrounding the child's hip and at the child's neck or shoulder portion, which areas are indicated by 3 and 4, the carrying part has extensions, on each side of which is attached a carrying strap 6.
  • the extended portions 3 and 4 will further enfold the child, holding it securely.
  • the child is further secured in the device by means of the pants-like portion 11, as clearly illustrated in fig. 2.
  • This portion 11 of the carrying device can either be permanently sewn on to the carrying part 2 or can be releasable on one or both sides.
  • a padded cushion 12 can be provided in order to protect against loads from a child's car seat's attaching mechanism, but this padding 12 is not a necessary part of the invention, even though it may be advantageous.
  • a neck or head support 5 which is preferably adjustable, thus enabling it to be raised in order to give the child's head a more upright position or lowered again into a resting position or sleeping position. This adjustment can be performed by means of suitable devices such as a Velcro fastening or the like.
  • this part 5 is illustrated in a lowered position, while in figures 2-4 it is illustrated in a more upright position.
  • rings or lugs 7, which are intended to be able to be hooked into a loop 8 on a carrying harness which is generally indicated by 9.
  • This carrying harness is of the diagonal type, which is carried diagonally over a shoulder down towards the user's hip portion, and on the back, for example, a bag may be mounted as indicated in fig. 4 or it may be purely in the form of a carrying harness.
  • the rings 7 are passed in through a lock in the loop 8 as indicated by the arrows with A in fig. 4.
  • These attachment means 7 and 8 are illustrated in an entirely schematic manner in the drawings and any suitable attachment method may be employed here according to the choice of a person skilled in the art.
  • the carrying harness it need not necessarily be a diagonal harness, as illustrated, but any kind of carrying harness may be suitable and it may also be fastened, e.g., to the strap of a rucksack or other carrying means. Many modifications may therefore be envisaged.
  • the carrying device When the carrying device has to be placed in a child's car seat, it is quite simply lifted into the chair and placed on the seat of the chair.
  • the soft carrying part 2 will thereby adapt to the chair and fill out the seat space, and the child together with the carrying device, which now forms an insert in the chair, will be able to be buckled into the chair by means of its safety belt in a conventional manner without the necessity of further securing of the carrying device.
  • the carrying part has only projecting or extended portions in the hip area and at the head area, thus enabling the child seat's safety belt to be inserted from the side into the intermediate portion between these areas, also with a strap up along the "pants portion" and with the shoulder straps in past the preferably recessed neck part.
  • the child with the insert/carrying device are thereby satisfactorily secured.
  • the easiest possible positioning of the child with the carrying device is achieved in the seat without the need for additional securing means, mounting or the like.
  • a soft and flexible adaptation is achieved for the child which is thereby "padded" in the chair, even though the child may be a little too small for the chair size.
  • the device's carrying part 2 is designed from a material which provides a thermal effect, the carrying device will also provide special advantages in its role as an insert.
  • the child will be protected against cold on a chilly day when it is placed in a cold child's seat in a cold car, since the device can be taken out of a warm house or have been heated in advance, thus keeping the child in safe, warm surroundings right up to the moment when the car's heater has increased the ambient temperature.
  • the basic part is advantageously constructed from a cellular plastic material such as polyethene or use may be made of so-called heat-absorbent and heat-storing materials, which, e.g., can be preheated in a microwave oven. There are a number of such materials on the market.
