Definitions
- Embodiments of the invention relate to baby carriers
- Various types of wearable baby carriers that are configured to enable a person to wear the carriers comfortably and safely carry a baby therein are known.
- front and back carriers comprising a seat or "pouch" for holding the baby on the chest or back of a person wearing the carrier, and an arrangement of straps and/or belts attached to the pouch for securing the pouch to the wearer.
- the straps and/or belts comprise shoulder straps that are looped over the wearer's shoulder and a belt strap that is buckled around the wearer's waist.
- US Patent 6,098,857 describes a backpack type baby carrier.
- US Design Patent D509,056 shows a front-pack baby carrier.
- Sling baby carriers usually comprise a "bandolier" sling of material that is slung over a shoulder to form a "hammock” into which a baby may be placed to be held on the wearer's chest.
- US Patent 5,950,887 describes a sling baby carrier having a set of rings through which an end of the sling is looped so that its length is adjustable.
- US Patent 6,595,396 describes a sling baby carrier formed with a seat region and a cord for securing a baby in the seat.
- An aspect of some embodiments of the invention relates to providing a sling baby carrier that provides enhanced support for a baby held in the carrier.
- An aspect of some embodiments of the invention relates to providing a sling baby carrier that provides improved distribution of a baby's weight on the body of a person carrying the baby in the carrier.
- An aspect of some embodiments of the invention relates to providing a bandolier sling for holding and carrying a baby having an improved contour for securely holding a baby.
- a sling baby carrier hereinafter also referred to as a "LoopiX" baby carrier, comprises two crossed bandolier slings of material suitable for cradling a baby that are joined at a junction.
- the bandolier slings are attached to a same "tie panel" at the junction.
- each bandolier comprises a single length of material, optionally the material comprises a knit and/or an elastic cloth.
- a wearer carrying a baby in the LoopiX baby carrier optionally wears the baby carrier with the tie panel on the wearer's back.
- Each bandolier extends from the tie panel over a different shoulder to cross over the wearer's chest, and pass under the arm of an opposite shoulder back to the tie panel.
- One of the bandoliers lies closer to the wearer's chest and holds the baby, optionally hammock-like.
- the other of the bandoliers crosses over the closer bandolier and aids in holding and/or enwrapping the baby and securing the baby in place in the first bandolier.
- a wearer may choose to wear the LoopiX carrier with the tie panel on his or her chest and the baby held in the nearer of the bandolier slings on the wearer's back.
- the bandoliers are fastened to each other along a region where they cross, overlap and/or abut each other.
- the bandoliers may be sewn or knotted together along a region where they cross each other.
- a tie panel is formed having a pouch into which the bandolier slings may be inserted and stored for convenience when the LoopiX baby carrier is not in use.
- two substantially congruent pieces of material such as a fabric or suitable flexible plastic, are joined together, for example by sewing, around their edges to form a tie panel having a carrying pouch. A portion of the edges are not joined to leave an opening for the pouch.
- the pouch is a "zipper pouch", formed from a tie panel and a piece of material, substantially congruent with the tie panel, which are permanently joined only along relatively short portions of their edges.
- the remaining portions of their edges are reversibly joined by at least one fastener, for example, by a zipper, or by a hook and loop fastener, such as a Velcro® fastener, to form a pouch for enclosing the bandolier slings.
- at least one fastener for example, by a zipper, or by a hook and loop fastener, such as a Velcro® fastener, to form a pouch for enclosing the bandolier slings.
- a LoopiX baby carrier By holding and securing the baby using crossed bandoliers of material that pass over different shoulders, a LoopiX baby carrier, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention, distributes the weight of the baby to both of a wearer' s shoulders rather than one shoulder, as is common with many conventional sling baby carriers.
- the crossed bandolier slings also contribute to maintaining the baby securely in place and allow the wearer greater freedom of motion and use of his or her hands than a conventional sling carrier.
- a bandolier sling in a LoopiX baby carrier comprises a length of soft material formed having a relatively narrow stiffened longitudinal region, hereinafter also referred to as a "spine line", extending along its length substantially in the middle of the bandolier.
- the spine line aids in centering and cupping a baby hammock-like in the sling.
- the bandolier is formed from an elastic cloth.
- the stiffened region is provided by inserting a stay formed by way of example from a plastic, rubber, or stiffened cloth.
- a bandolier sling spine line is formed by sewing a "seam", for example a double stitched seam, into the bandolier sling, or stiffening a region of the bandolier sling by impregnating the region with a stiffening material such as a starch.
- location of a spine line of a bandolier sling is distinguished by a marking, a "spine line marker", such as by a contrasting color, which indicates the location of the spine line.
- the marking aids in properly positioning a baby in the bandolier sling.
- a bandolier sling comprises a spine line marker but not an actual spine line. The spine line marker indicates a central longitudinal region of the bandolier to aid a wearer in positioning a baby in the bandolier.
