Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to protect a baby's occipital region from an impact when the child falls over by attaching a string to a lightweight cushion and buckling the cushion so that the cushion covers the back of the head and the upper part of the back. Is what you do. Infants may fall suddenly during the process of sitting or afterwards because of poor motor function, with the occiput hitting the floor strongly. Parents try to lay cushions to protect their children from injury, but they can't help laying cushions all over the room. Existing medical helmets have poor shock absorption and make loud noises when hitting the floor, which can surprise and cry children. In addition, when worn for a long time, discomfort due to stuffiness or weight occurs. The present invention has simply solved the above disadvantages. This will be described below. (A) A cushion (1) in which a nylon sponge having a thickness of about 5 cm is filled is prepared.

(B) A loop (2) is sewn on both sides thereof, a shoulder strap (3) is passed through, and both ends are tied so as not to fall out of the loop.

(C) The center of the shoulder strap (3) is fixed to the center (4) of the cushion so that the cushion is in contact with the back of the head and the upper part of the back when the baby is carried on the back.

When this is carried on an infant, even if the child falls over and hits the head, the cushion softens the impact, so that the back of the head is protected. In addition, since it is extremely lightweight, it does not hinder exercise at the time of wearing, and natural exercise ability can be expected to develop.
The content of the cushion is not limited to the nylon sponge, but may be any material having a light weight and a shock absorbing ability. As a method of applying the cushion to the back of the head to the upper part of the back, the cushion may be attached to the back of the vest and worn.
