Children's bedding

The invention relates to a children's bed equipped with a care level.

Well-known cots are usually wood-decorated so-called. cots with the possibility to extend the bed for the child's height. Wood is the most popular bed material because it is a warm, beautiful and safe material.

Especially a child in infancy sleeps most of the time. Other activities include changing diapers, washing and feeding. In current cribs, childcare is facilitated on a liftable (adjustable) base, i.e. in infancy when the child’s need for handling is greatest, deep bending is avoided which saves the babysitter’s back, making work more comfortable. When handling a child, especially when changing diapers and clothes, the child is usually taken out of bed on a separate changing table. This is a transfer transaction. The changing table is an independent unit and quite expensive. Due to the high price, the changing table is not as widely used as would be desirable for the health of the child's caregiver.

Usually the children's bed is placed in the parents '"V bedroom next to the bed, which the parents' bed ;;; practically acts as a" level of care ". A child falling • · from a flat bed to the floor is not very uncommon i at the stage when the child learns to spin around.

Another popular practical approach is. change diapers in the child's bed. This is a safer way than the above but causes deep bending of the crib. ; due to the edges, and is not recommended for the caregiver’s back at all. Usually, when changing the diaper, the bed must also be changed, which is why the child must be lifted out of the bed. The infant's diapers are changed every 2-3 hours during the day and night "if necessary", ie 1-3 times, depending on the sleepiness of the parents.

Diaper change events usually accumulate 6-12 during the day, so in one year they are likely to accumulate (8x365) about 3,000. If the diaper change event or other childcare work illustrated above involves moving an average child weighing 6 kilograms from their own bed two meters away and back to their own bed, the Babysitter or Mother will transfer 18 tonnes per year for a distance of 4 meters.

The annual handling of such a large amount of weight in unfavorable working positions (front bends), especially for a modern woman unfamiliar with manual labor, often causes back injuries and becomes costly for the caregiver herself and society.

DE 21 64 445 discloses a treatment level comprising one or both ends of a bed, which can be turned over the cross-strip. The downside here is that at least one end has to be removed. In addition, arranging the level of care is cumbersome. The child has to be hung in the second armpit while said end is arranged as a care level, or the child first has to be put on some auxiliary level therefore the time when the care level is arranged on the bed.

The treatment level according to the invention is placed on the longitudinal side of the bed, preferably by articulation. The layer can be quickly turned on or off.

In the following, the invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Figure 1 shows a flat children's bed of the invention in which the level of care is adapted to the position of use.

Figure 2 shows the treatment level in the off position and e.g. as a drawing board.

Figure 3 shows a locking member of the care level and

Figure 4 shows the treatment level as a drawing board.

The cot arrangement according to the invention comprises a bed 1 and a care level 2 fitted thereto, provided with edges U, to prevent a child from falling and an ear molding 3 * which acts as a support when the care level 2 is turned behind the bed 1 (Fig. 2) and rests on horizontal supports 5 »6, acting as a level of care.

The bed 1, the edge strip 3, i.e. the base 10 of the care level resting on the ear skirt, serves as a base for children's sticker images.

• The other side of the care tray can be used behind the bed in the swivel position as a drawing board for children.

• The care tray can be removed from the bed connection as a drawing pad 10.

The children's bed arrangement described above, comprising the level of care used in connection with the bed, is inexpensive. In use, it shortens the child's transfer distance to the shortest possible. In addition, use is safe. The side walls i, can be raised to the desired height.

"... In addition to the above, there is a need for space - which *” · * is limited to the space between the bed and the wall by the above-mentioned side walls 4 · ».
