Definitions

  • the field of the invention is that of childcare. More specifically, the invention relates to baby carriers.
  • Baby carriers including a harness, including two straps and usually a belt, and a seat for the child.
  • this seat is pierced with two openings in which the child can pass the legs.
  • baby carriers There are many types of baby carriers, depending on whether the child is worn on the back or on the wearer's belly, on the one hand, and that the child looks towards the wearer or outward, on the other hand go.
  • the seat In older baby carriers, the seat is permanently attached to the harness. In this case, of course, the use of the baby carrier is frozen. In other cases, the harness and the seat can be separated from each other.
  • baby carriers which consist mainly of a belt, the baby sitting on a support attached to this belt. These baby carriers have the effect of asymmetrically support the hips of the carrier, which is uncomfortable, and are therefore intended for short-term portages.
  • sling carriers also include a belt that has the effect of stabilizing the wearer's load.
  • a belly carrier comprising in the back of the wearer a triangular piece 96, joining the two straps 93, for providing the wearer a lumbar support.
  • this piece 96 does not provide effective support when the baby carrier is loaded.
  • the weight present in the seat 90 tends to pull the strap 93 as indicated by the arrow A. This pull back the straps 93 behind the back of the wearer, as indicated by the arrow B.
  • the triangular piece 96 going up as indicated by the arrow C, tends to pivot around the piece 95, which causes a detachment of the back of the wearer, as indicated by the arrow D. There is therefore no, or little, support at the lumbar level, contrary to the goal set.
  • Baby carriers also have the effect of changing the balance of the wearer. Indeed, the baby being worn high enough, the center of gravity of the wearer is raised significantly. This induces a risk of fall of the wearer, which can be dramatic for the baby, or at least to unbalance it.
  • the invention particularly aims to overcome these disadvantages of the prior art.
  • an object of the invention is to provide a baby carrier that provides the wearer a high level of comfort and safety by avoiding fatigue in the shoulders and back, and avoiding back deformations harmful to his health.
  • Another object of the invention is to implement a baby carrier which limits the risk of falling or imbalance of the wearer, to safeguard the safety of the baby.
  • a ventral baby carrier comprising a harness having a lower part, or belt, resting on the hips of a wearer and two carrying straps to be secured to a seat for receiving a baby.
  • the carrying straps of such a baby carrier circulate under the wearer's arms, and are connected in a first connection point, located a portion of the seat away from the wearer, to the seat, and in a second connection point, located in the back of the carrier higher than the first point of connection, to a stiffened back structure of force recovery, returning at least a portion of the forces applied on said carrying straps to said portion lower.
  • the invention is based on a completely new and inventive approach to baby carriers.
  • the weight of the baby is no longer supported by the wearer's shoulders, but is distributed at the level of his hips.
  • the back of the wearer is held all the more firmly as the load is heavy.
  • the baby is worn lower than in most existing models of baby carriers, which has the advantage of widening the wearer's field of vision and reducing the center of gravity of the whole " carrier and baby "at a level close to the wearer's center of gravity.
  • the risk of imbalance of the wearer is therefore considerably decreases.
  • the back structure taking the efforts due to the weight of the baby, can ensure the maintenance of the back of the wearer.
  • the seat has at least two attachment points remote from the wearer and at least one attachment point close to the wearer, the attachment points remote from the wearer being secured to the carrying straps, and the point or points of fastening close to the carrier being secured to said lower part.
  • the seat thus attached will be well maintained and will not present any risk of tipping.
  • the lower part comprises a ventral support element allowing a distribution of forces applied over a wide width of the belly of the wearer.
  • the attachment points close to the wearer and the attachment points remote from the wearer are in a substantially horizontal plane, when the baby is worn.
  • This configuration is essentially different from that of the majority of baby carriers of the prior art, for which the different fasteners of the seat are in a substantially vertical plane against the wearer.
  • the seat intended to contain the baby is detachable from said harness, and it can be fixed by the user in position facing the wearer, or in position back to the wearer.
  • the seat can be replaced by a basket, in which the baby is essentially lying down.
  • the baby carrier of the invention can be adapted to carry the youngest children, too small to be installed in the seat.
  • the bottom of the stiffened back structure comprises a rear part of the lower part.
  • the stiffened back structure comprises reinforcements ranging from the attachment area of the carrying straps to the rear part of the lower part.
  • the reinforcements comprise leaf springs.
  • the harness comprises straps intended to pass over the shoulders of the wearer.
  • the straps are fixed, in front of the wearer, to the carrying straps.
  • This method of attachment can avoid having to adjust the length of the straps depending on the size of the wearer.
  • the invention also relates to a harness for a ventral baby carrier as described above.
  • the invention thus relates to a ventral baby carrier, whose harness comprises a belt, a rigid back pad, and two carrying straps for carrying the seat that circulate under the arms of the wearer to transfer the weight of the baby to the back pad who transfers it to the belt.
  • These carrying straps 41 are connected to the seat 3 via the fastener 411 placed at the end of the strap 41, and which is secured to the fastener 31 of the fastener.
  • the other end 412 of the carrying strap 41 is secured to the top of the stiffened back structure 42.
  • the carrying straps 41 pass under the arms of the carrier 2 (the location of the wearer's arms is represented by the shaded area 21) and are inclined forwards. Indeed, under normal carrying conditions, the end 412 of the carrying strap is located higher than the fastener 411.
  • the carrying strap 41 supports a large part of the child's weight, and transmits it to the top of the rigid back structure 42. Indeed, as can be seen on Figure 2 , the weight of the baby is distributed between the fasteners 31 and 32 of the seat, acting on these fasteners respectively in the direction of the arrows L and M. The strap 41 therefore takes again the the forces represented by the arrow L, acting on the dorsal structure 42 as represented by the arrow N.
  • the back structure 42 is stiffened by vertical reinforcements. It is supported on the back of the wearer whose form she partially marries. Under the effect of the pulling of the straps 41, due to the weight of the baby, this structure tends to be pressed against the back of the wearer 2 and down along the back. This downward movement is blocked by the belt or lower part of the harness, which is supported on the hips of the wearer (2) and thus transmits the effort due to the weight of the baby (1). The back portion 42 thus distributes these efforts on the back and the hips of the wearer, as indicated by the arrow O.
  • the belt of the harness or lumbar reinforcement is formed of the bottom of the rigid back structure 42, the belt side members 43 and the waist ventral element 44. This belt ensures the maintenance of the harness of the baby carrier on the wearer.
  • the waist ventral element 44 is attached to the remainder of the harness by the clips 441, and is detachable.
  • Figure 4 thus represents the belt 44 which one of the fasteners 441 is attached to the rest of the harness and the other is detached. The opening of these fasteners allows to set up and remove the harness 4.
  • This ventral waist element 44 supports two fastening elements 442 intended to be secured to fastening elements 32 of the seat.
  • this ventral waistband element supports part of the weight of the child, represented on Figure 2 by the arrow M, and prevents any tilting of the seat.
  • This element is supported on the wearer's belly. Its broad shape, covering a large part of the width of the wearer's belly, allows him to distribute the efforts well.
  • shoulder straps can be provided, but they have an essentially comfort function, and do not bear support elements of the seat.
  • the dorsal structure 42 therefore has the essential role of transmitting from top to bottom efforts due to the weight of the child. For this, it is stiffened by reinforcements that extend in the direction of the effort to be transmitted.
  • the seams of the dorsal structure 42 define 4 bands 421, 422, 423 and 424. Each of these bands (or at least some of them) is reinforced by a spring blade which is concealed inside the structure. tissue. The arrangement of these strips, further apart at the bottom, makes it possible to distribute the forces at the level of the wearer's pelvis well.
  • the back structure 42 being pressed against the back of the wearer by the weight of the baby, it also performs a support role and back support. Some areas of the back being more sensitive to pressure than others, it is possible to give this back structure 42 a shape that allows it to rely on the less sensitive areas. It also naturally encourages the wearer to maintain his back in a good position, which avoids fatigue and the risk of lower back pain usually associated with carrying a load.
  • the bottom of the rigid dorsal structure can, in particular, marry the curve of the hips of the wearer. This part of the structure being tight against the wearer by the belt, the harness 4 will thus be effectively maintained, without risk of slipping.
  • a seat solution adaptable to the harness of the baby carrier according to the invention is represented in figure 5, 6 and 7 .
  • This seat is advantageously detachable from the harness.
  • the baby can be seated indifferently in one direction or the other. It can therefore be installed in the baby carrier either facing the wearer or back to the wearer.
  • a seat that has the attachments to attach to the harness on both sides, which would bring the baby to the wearer or back to the carrier by leaving it in the same position in the seat.
  • the seat can be replaced by a basket (not shown) in which the baby is lying.
  • the basket is fixed to the harness in the same way as the seat.
  • the skilled person can also imagine adapting to the harness any other model seat.
  • the attachment of the seat to the harness is done by the hooks 32 which are secured to the fasteners 442 of the harness belt, and by the fasteners 31 which are secured to the fasteners 411 of the harness carrying straps.
  • the hooks 32 are on the portion of the seat that is against the wearer and the fasteners 31 are on the part of the seat away from the wearer. This avoids any risk of tilting of the seat.
  • the attachment points 31 and 32 of the seat are therefore distributed in a substantially horizontal plane, one near the wearer's body, and the other away from the wearer's body. This distribution is opposed to the vertical distribution of known systems such as Figure 1 where the fasteners 92 and 92 are located one above the other.
  • the baby carrier according to the invention allows the baby to be carried lower than many baby carriers of the prior art.
  • This low port has several advantages. On the one hand, it brings the center of gravity of the "carrier and baby" assembly closer to the center of gravity of the wearer. The wearer is less unbalanced by the weight of the baby, its center of gravity is less modified. On the other hand, the baby is less uncomfortable with the wearer's view. This one has a bigger field of vision than if the baby is higher, especially downwards. The wearer can better see or walk and avoid tripping over low obstacles, such as curbs. The risks of falling from the wearer are therefore significantly reduced by the lower carrying of the baby.
  • the seat shown on Figures 3, 4 and 5 has optional protection 33 for protecting the baby's head.
  • This protection can be, optionally, deployed or folded behind the back of the baby. So, Figure 8 represents the baby carrier with the protection 33 deployed, and Figure 9 represents him with the protection 33 folded. In the deployed position, the protection 33 can be maintained by securing its fastener 331 to the fastener 451 of the shoulder straps 45.
  • the straps 45 shown on Figures 8, 9 and 10 Its main role is to provide a fastener for maintaining the protection 33. It can also serve to secure the baby carrier by preventing its fall in case of accidental opening of the fasteners of the belt. These straps are not meant to support the weight of the baby, as shown elsewhere Figure 2 .
  • FIGs 8 and 9 show two embodiments of the baby carrier according to the invention equipped with straps. On that of Figure 8 , these straps are connected to the belt by means of a fastener 452. On that of Figure 9 these straps have a loop for passing the carrying strap 41. The choice of these strap attachment methods is of little importance, because they play no significant role in the portage.
  • the seat presented on Figure 7 has a grid, or a ventilation net 34, to ventilate the baby.
  • This ventilation grille is hidden, on Figure 6 , by the cover 35.
  • This cover can be wound and held by a holding device 351, as seen on Figure 7 .
  • the various fasteners 411, 31, 441, 31, 331 and 451 are fasteners connecting two straps, well known to those skilled in the art. These straps are themselves sewn to the elements of the baby carrier. Conventionally, these fasteners are made of plastic material and include a device for adjusting the length of one of the straps. The harness is thus fully adjustable to adapt to the wearer's morphology.
