Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates generally to carrying and support devices. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to shoulder harness devices for on-the-body carry of infants and small children. The present disclosure further relates to reversible infant carriers adaptable for carrying the infant on the front side or the back side of the wearer.
  • Such infant-carrying devices include carriages, strollers, pushchairs, and car seats, which are separate units particularly configured for holding the infant or toddler independent of the parent/caregiver adult. The adult, in turn, holds and transports the device with handles and other attachments thereof.
  • devices known in the art configured to be worn by the adult for on-the-body carrying of the infant or toddler, including slings, wraps, pouches, and backpack-like shoulder strap devices.
  • infant carriers suitable for on-the-body carry including slings, wraps, and shoulder strap carriers. Though simpler in construction, slings and wraps are not as popular as infant carriers that incorporate shoulder straps, due in part to the difficulty associated with proper wear.
  • infant carriers with shoulder straps there are those with frames fashioned after conventional backpacks. Accordingly, such framed carriers typically support the child on the back of the wearer.
  • frameless or soft-sided carriers that support the child on the front or chest of the wearer such as that contemplated in U.S. Pat. No. 6,763,983 to Norman , as well as those that support the child on the hip of the wearer such as that contemplated in U.S. Pat. No. 5,813,580 to Fair .
  • the child may be carried on the front of, and facing backwards to, the parent or caregiver.
  • the parent or caregiver may be carried on the front of, and facing backwards to, the parent or caregiver.
  • a greater degree of interaction with the surrounding environment may be offered by carrying the child in the front of, and facing forward along the same perspective as, the parent or caregiver.
  • due to increased exposure to hazards considering that the body of the parent/caregiver does not shield the child it may be inappropriate in certain circumstances to carry the child in the front.
  • US 2004/149790 discloses a baby carrier which provided by first connection means for enabling lateral hold of a baby that is laid down, using the baby holding member on the front side of a mother; second connection means for enabling front side vertical hold of the baby in an upright posture, using the baby holding member on the front side of the mother; and third connection means for enabling back side vertical hold of the baby in an upright posture, using the baby holding member on the back of the mother.
  • an improved infant carrier that can be switched to carry the child between a number of positions and orientations. Additionally, there is a need for an infant carrier that provides proper support and comfort to the wearer and the child, which can be appropriately converted in accordance with each such positions and orientations. There is also a need in the art for an infant carrier having minor dimensional adjustments that accommodate varying body shapes and sizes.
  • a reversible infant carrying apparatus that is adapted to support an infant or toddler on an adult wearer.
  • the carrying apparatus in accordance with such an embodiment includes an anterior support panel with a lateral sleeve. Furthermore, there is a posterior support panel that is linked to the anterior support panel.
  • a support belt that is slidably extended through the lateral sleeve, with the support belt defining a first connector end engageable to an opposed second connector end.
  • the anterior support panel, the posterior support panel, and the pair of shoulder harnesses collectively define a compartment within which the infant is supported.
  • an infant carrier 10 in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention is shown being worn by an adult 12, and carrying an infant 14.
  • the adult 12 is understood to be a parent or other like caregiver, though it will be appreciated that the specific identity of the adult 12 has no particular significance to the present invention.
  • the adult 12 is a mature human capable of wearing the infant carrier 10 and bearing the weight of the infant 14 supported thereby, and the term wearer may also be used to refer to the same.
  • the infant 14 this is by way of exemplary simplification only, and not of limitation. It is contemplated that small children from newborns to toddlers may also be supported by the infant carrier 10. Accordingly, when referring to the infant carrier 10, it is understood that such reference name is not intended to limit the carrying capabilities to strictly infants (children about a year old).
  • the infant carrier 10 may be worn such that the infant 14 is positioned on a back 16 of the adult 12 as shown in FIG. 1 . This style of wear is referred to herein as back carry. Additionally, as shown in FIG. 2 , the infant carrier 10 may be worn such that the infant 14 is positioned on the front or abdomen 18 of the adult 12, referred to herein as front carry. In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, the infant carrier 10 is configured in a manner that may be switched between front carry and back carry as will be described in further detail below.
  • the infant carrier 10 may support a range of children from newborns, infants, to toddlers. Though the particular age of the child is inconsequential, it is to be understood that in the front carry position, the infant carrier 10 may support a child of approximately 7 to 26 lbs., while in the back carry position, the infant carrier 10 may support a child of up to 36 lbs.
  • the infant carrier 10 is contemplated as being able to support the infant 14 in the back-facing orientation as shown in FIG. 2 , as well as the front-facing orientation as shown in FIG. 3 . As described in the background above, the back-facing orientation allows the adult 12 to easily monitor infant 14 during, for example, sleeping or eating times. On the other hand, the front-facing orientation may facilitate a greater degree of interaction with the environment. Further details relating to switching between such orientations will be described in further detail below.
  • the infant carrier 10 has an anterior support panel 20 that includes a lateral sleeve 22. Additionally, the infant carrier 10 includes a posterior support panel 24 that is linked to the anterior support panel 20. There is also included a pair of shoulder harnesses 26, specifically, a left shoulder harness 26a and a right shoulder harness 26b. Each of the opposed ends 28, 30 of the shoulder harnesses 26 terminate at the anterior support panel 20, and defines a loop relationship. Unless otherwise noted, in subsequent references to sub-elements of features provided in pairs such as the shoulder harnesses 26, such sub-elements are understood to be included in both instances of that feature.
  • the infant carrier 10 includes a support belt 32 slidably extended through the lateral sleeve 22.
  • the support belt 32 serves as a safety and counterbalance to the shoulder harnesses 26 to ensure that the weight of the infant 14 is distributed equally along the back 16 of the adult 12.
  • the support belt 32 defines a first connector end 34 engageable to an opposed second connector end 36 to maintain a looped configuration about the abdomen 18 and the back 16 of the adult 12.
  • the anterior support panel 20, the posterior support panel 24, and the pair of shoulder harnesses 26 collectively define a compartment 38, within which the infant 14 is supported.
  • the posterior support panel 24 includes a pair of head support extensions 40, as well as a pair of first body support extensions 42. As shown in FIG. 4 , the posterior support panel 24 is generally flat, with the head support extensions 40 and the first body support extensions 42 being bent almost perpendicularly to the flat portion so that it may be directly coupled to the respective one of the shoulder harnesses 26.
  • the shoulder harness 26 has affixed thereto a first head support linkage strap 44 having a proximal end 46 that is permanently sewn on to the shoulder harness 26, and a distal end 48 coupled to a female connector 50.
  • the female connector 50 is receptive to a male connector 52, which is coupled to a second head support linkage strap 54 that defines a proximal end 56 and an opposed distal end 58.
  • the proximal end 56 is attached to the head support extension 40, and the remainder of the second head support linkage strap 54 is threaded through a bracket 60.
  • the length between the head support extension 40 and the shoulder harness 26 may be adjusted as desired, subject to the limits of available slack.
  • the female connector 50 and the male connector 52 may be any one of known selectively engageable connector types.
  • first body support extension 42 fixed to the shoulder harness 26 is a second body support extension 62 that is configured for secured attachment to the first body support extension 42.
  • the second body support extension 62 is shaped and positioned along the shoulder harness 26 to be overlapping the first body support extension 42.
  • first and second body support extensions 42, 62 are to be removably attached using conventional hook and loop connectors.
  • the first body support extension 42 may have a first strip 64 comprised of a plurality of miniature hooks
  • the second body support extension 62 may have a second strip 66 comprised of a plurality of miniature loops.
  • the miniature hooks become embedded within the miniature loops, thereby holding the first strip 64 and the second strip 66 together, as well as any other structure attached to the same. Since the first strip 64 and the second strip 66 have a vast overlapping area, the amalgamated width of the first body support extension 42 and the second body support extension 62 may be greatly varied. In combination with the adjustable head support extension 40 and the first and second body support extensions 42, 62, varying sizes of the infant 12 may be fitted within the confines of the compartment 38.
  • the compartment 38 is understood to include an infant arm passage 39 defined by the head support extensions 40 and the first and second body support extensions 42, 44.
  • An infant leg passage 41 is defined by the first and second body support extensions 42, 44 the anterior support panel 20, and a portion of the posterior support panel 24 between the first body support extension 42 and the anterior support panel 20.
  • first auxiliary body support strap 68 fixed to the first body support extension 42
  • second auxiliary body support strap 70 fixed to the second body support extension 62.
  • the first auxiliary body support strap 68 is threaded through a buckle portion 72 of a male connector 74, while the second auxiliary body support strap 70 is linked to a female connector 76, which is configured to releasably engage the male connector 74.
  • first and second auxiliary body support straps 68, 70 prevents the link between the first body support extension 42 and the second body support extension 62 from coming undone, thereby enhancing the security of the infant carrier 10.
  • both ends 28, 30 of the shoulder harness 26 are fixed to the anterior support panel 24.
  • the shoulder harness 26 is understood to be comprised of a primary segment 78 associated with the end 30, and a secondary segment 80 associated with the end 28.
  • the anterior support panel 20 is generally rectangular in shape and defines a top edge 82, an opposed bottom edge 84, a left side edge 86, and an opposed right side edge 86. It is contemplated that the end 30 of the primary segment 78 is attached to the anterior support panel 20 by way of the top edge 82, and the end 28 of the secondary segment 80 is attached to the anterior support panel 20 by way of the left and right side edges 86, 88.
  • the primary segment 78 is illustrated as being substantially perpendicular to the secondary segment 80 with respect to the attachment to the anterior support panel 20, it will be appreciated by those having ordinary skill in the art that the primary segment 78 may be disposed at any desired angle relative to the secondary segment 80.
  • the left shoulder harness 26a may be positioned on the anterior support panel 30 in an angular offset relative to the right shoulder harness 26b, such that the shoulder harnesses 26 define a converging v-shaped configuration. It is contemplated that such v-shaped configuration reduces the likelihood of the infant 14 choking between the shoulder harnesses 26, considering that the junction 27 therebetween is substantially lower than the normal positioning of the head of the infant 14. As best illustrated in FIG.
  • the primary segment 78 has attached thereto the first head support linkage strap 44, as well as the second body support extension 62 and the second auxiliary body support strap 70.
  • the secondary segment 80 is adjustably coupled to the primary segment 78 with a threaded buckle 90.
  • the length of the secondary segment 80 relative to the primary segment 78 may be modified to account for various sizes of the body of the adult 12.
  • Each of the shoulder harnesses 26 includes a tubular shoulder pad sleeve 92 that is selectively positionable along the primary segment 78.
  • the tubular shoulder pad sleeve 92 is defined by an open top end 94 and an opposed open bottom end 96, and is fitted over the shoulder harness 26 in a sliding relationship.
  • the opening of the tubular shoulder pad sleeve 92 is slightly greater than the width of the shoulder harness 26.
  • the interior core of the tubular shoulder pad sleeve 92 is comprised of a sponge-like cushioning material.
  • the cushioning material is memory foam, and is understood to conform to the shape of the shoulders 19 of the adult 12 and distribute the load evenly along the entirety of the tubular shoulder pad sleeve 26.
  • the outer fabric of the tubular should pad sleeve 26 may be a breathable, mesh-like material for added comfort to the adult 12.
  • the shoulder pad sleeve 26 is axially rotatable about the shoulder harness 26 to provide cushioning in front carry and back carry, where only a half of the shoulder pad sleeve 26 is provided with the cushioning material.
  • the primary segment 78 of the shoulder harness 26 further includes a selectively engageable cross connector 98 that links the left shoulder harness 26a and the right shoulder harness 26b for a more secure attachment of the infant carrier 10 to the adult 12.
  • the cross connector 98 is comprised of a first strap segment 100 having an end permanently affixed to the left shoulder harness 26a, and a second strap segment 102 with an end permanently fixed to the right shoulder harness 26b.
