Description

本発明は、生後から首がすわるまでの時期の乳児を、だっこする際、授乳する際、または入浴させる際に用いる保育用具に関するものである。 [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a childcare tool used for rubbing, breastfeeding, or bathing an infant in the period from birth to the time when his / her neck slips.

従来、生後から首がすわるまでの時期の乳児をだっこする際の方法は、主に保育者が両手で直接乳児を抱きかかえるというものである。その際、保育者と乳児の体格差は大きいため、保育者は常に乳児の大きさに合わせて抱き方を工夫していた。
母親が授乳する際の方法は、直接乳児を抱き上げ、乳児の体重を支えながら、乳児の口元を母親の乳首の位置に維持し続けるというものだった。
だっこや授乳を助ける保育用具として、スリングが用いられることもあった。
入浴時には、乳児を直接湯船に入れ、片手の平で、後頭部から乳児の頭を支えながら乳児の両耳を塞ぎ、他方の手で体を洗っていた。 Conventionally, the method of squeezing an infant from the time of birth until his / her neck suffices is that the childcare person holds the infant directly with both hands. At that time, the difference between the physique of the childcare person and the infant is large, so the childcare person has always devised how to hold in accordance with the size of the infant.
The mother's method of breastfeeding was to hold the infant directly and support the baby's weight while keeping the infant's mouth in the mother's nipple position.
Slings were sometimes used as childcare tools that helped with octopus and breastfeeding.
At the time of bathing, the infant was placed directly in the bathtub, with the palm of one hand supporting the infant's head from the back of the head, covering the infant's ears and washing the body with the other hand.

保育者が乳児をだっこする際には、両者の体格差は大きいため、保育者は常に乳児の大きさに抱き方を合わせ、その姿勢を維持し続けなければならない。そのためだっこに慣れていない父親や、腕力に自信の無い祖母・祖父、お見舞いの親戚筋や友人などは、だっこを早めに切り上げたり、断念したりしなければならず、せっかくの愛情交歓の機会であるだっこを、充分に行えないことがある。
母親による母乳授乳のためのだっこは、昼夜を問わず行われ、回数は１日に８回程度、所要時間は１回２０分程度必要である。これを行う母親は、乳児の体重を支えながら、乳児の口元と乳首との位置を一定に保つ姿勢を、授乳の間中維持し続けなければならない。数か月にわたり、家事をこなしながらこの疲労を伴う授乳をし続ける事は、母親の腕・肩・背中・腰等の疲労の原因となっている。
母親以外の保育者が哺乳瓶で授乳することもあるが、この場合には乳児の身体を膝の上に置いたり、またはクッションを用いる等、授乳をしやすくする工夫がなされ、行われている。しかし多くの場合、保育者はだっこ自体に慣れていないため、保育者が安心してだっこを行い、保育に参加しやすくなる方法が望まれている。
だっこを補助する保育用具としてベビースリングが用いられることもあるが、この方法は保育者がスリングを装着するという、手間を要する。特に授乳においては、乳児は泣いて授乳を要求するものであり、昼夜を問わない１日８回程度の授乳のたびに、泣いている乳児を待たせてスリングを装着するということは、保育者と乳児の、両者のストレスとなっている。
また、スリングを用いる場合には、乳児自身の体重による体の沈下が起こり、乳児はスリングの中で、胸部・腹部に圧迫感のある姿勢になってしまうという問題がある。この姿勢は、胎内にいる時のものと類似しているため、乳児にとっては安心感があり問題は無いとする見方があるが、一方では、授乳能力が未発達な時期に、腹部に圧迫感のある姿勢での授乳方法は適当でないとする見方もある。
こうした問題に対し、特許文献１では、安定した幼児保持を行える、スリングとともに用いる敷板が提案されている。この特許文献１の発明では、課題を解決するための手段として、スリング内に装着する頭あて部材としての敷板とヘッドガード、腹部の安全ベルトを提案している。ヘッドガードと安全ベルトは任意とされている。この頭あて部材における敷板は頭から背中の半分までの長さでも良いとされているが、しかし現実的に考えて、頭から背中の半分までの長さの敷板の上に寝かせるということで、幼児の首をしっかりと支え、腹部や胸部を過剰に圧迫する事無く安定して保持できるとは考えにくい。敷板が背中の半分までしかなければ、臀部はスリングに持ち上げられてしまい、その結果として丸まった姿勢となり胸部や腹部の圧迫感は取り除かれない。
また、特許文献１では、使用の際に、スリングと頭あて部材をループによって係止することが提案されているが、幅広のスリングの中の小さなループを確認し、そこに頭あて部材を留めるという作業は、手間がかかるものである。この手間は、保育者と乳児の両者のストレスにつながるものである。
入浴の際には、通常ベビーバスは浴室の床上に置かれ、保育者は前かがみとなって乳児の入浴を行う。この時、保育者は片手の平で後頭部から頭部を支え、乳児の両耳を塞ぎながら乳児の体重を受け止め、他方の手で体を洗うというやり方で入浴させる。この姿勢は保育者の腰の負担が大きく、また乳児を支える手は乳児の体重による負担があり、保育者の疲労は大きかった。 When a childcare worker plucks an infant, the physique difference between the two is large, so the childcare worker must always keep the posture in accordance with the size of the infant. For this reason, fathers who are not used to it, grandmothers / grandfathers who are not confident in their strength, sympathetic relatives and friends, etc. must round up or abandon them early, giving them the opportunity to have a love and joy. It may not be possible to do enough.
The mother ’s breastfeeding is carried out day and night, and the frequency is about 8 times a day and the required time is about 20 minutes once. Mothers who do this must continue to maintain a position that keeps the infant's mouth and nipples in a constant position while breastfeeding while supporting the infant's weight. Continuing breastfeeding with this fatigue while doing housework for several months is a cause of fatigue in the mother's arms, shoulders, back, waist, etc.
Childcare personnel other than mothers may breastfeed in baby bottles, but in this case, the infant's body is placed on the knee or a cushion is used to make it easier to breastfeed. . However, in many cases, since the childcare person is not accustomed to the child-career itself, there is a demand for a method that makes it easier for the childcare worker to do the child-care and to participate in childcare.
A baby sling is sometimes used as a childcare tool for assisting the child, but this method requires time and effort for the childcare worker to wear the sling. Especially in breastfeeding, infants cry and ask for breastfeeding, and every time breastfeeding, about 8 times a day, day or night, a crying infant is kept waiting to wear a sling. It is the stress of both the baby and the infant.
In addition, when the sling is used, there is a problem that the body sinks due to the weight of the infant itself, and the infant becomes in a posture with a feeling of pressure in the chest and abdomen in the sling. Since this posture is similar to that in the womb, there is a view that there is no problem for infants and that there is no problem, but on the other hand, the feeling of pressure on the abdomen when breastfeeding ability is undeveloped There is a view that breastfeeding in a certain posture is not appropriate.
In order to solve such a problem, Patent Document 1 proposes a floor board used together with a sling that can stably hold an infant. In the invention of this Patent Document 1, as a means for solving the problem, a floor plate and a head guard as a heading member to be mounted in a sling, and a safety belt for the abdomen are proposed. Head guards and safety belts are optional. It is said that the length of the base plate in this heading member may be from the head to half of the back, but realistically, by putting it on the base plate of the length from the head to half of the back, It is unlikely that the infant's neck is firmly supported and can be held stably without excessive pressure on the abdomen and chest. If the floorboard is only up to half of the back, the buttocks are lifted by the sling, resulting in a curled posture and the feeling of pressure on the chest and abdomen cannot be removed.
Further, in Patent Document 1, it is proposed that the sling and the head contact member are locked by a loop in use, but a small loop in the wide sling is confirmed and the head contact member is fastened there. This work is time-consuming. This effort can lead to stress for both the childcare worker and the infant.
When taking a bath, the baby bath is usually placed on the floor of the bathroom, and the childcare person leans forward to bathe the baby. At this time, the childcare person takes a bath by supporting the head from the back of the head with the palm of one hand, receiving the weight of the infant while closing both ears of the infant, and washing the body with the other hand. This posture puts a heavy burden on the child's waist, and the hand supporting the baby was burdened by the weight of the baby, and the child's fatigue was great.

本発明にかかる保育用具は、頭部から臀部を真っ直ぐに支える背もたれ部Ａと、臀部、臀部体側部、股間を包むように安定保持する座面部Ｂと、背もたれ部の両側部から隆起して乳児を支える胴体安定保持部Ｃを備える。（以後この保育用具を「抱っこ籠」と呼ぶ。なお、ここでは抱っこ籠と座椅子の形状の類似から、抱っこ籠に入れる事を「座らせる」と表現する。実際には、入れたのち、籠ごと横抱きにして使用する物であるので、乳児は寝た状態である。）（参照図１）
このだっこ籠に乳児を座らせてだっこすることによって、乳児と保育者間の体格の差を補い、誰でも、簡単に、楽に、安全に、安定しただっこを行う事が出来る様にする。
背もたれ部Ａは、首がすわるまでの時期の乳児が座った時に、少なくとも頭部の下半分から臀部までを支える長さを条件とする。この長さであれば、生後すぐの乳児なら頭部全体から臀部まで安定保持され、また乳児の身長が伸びても、頭部の下半分までは支えることができるので、首がすわる時期の乳児の身長であっても、頭部から臀部までを安定して保持できると言ってよい。（参照図５・６）
さらに、安全への配慮については、まず乳児の体重が増加しても変形を生じない強度のある素材で成型した芯Ｆを用いる事である。（参照図４）生後から首がすわるまでの間に、乳児の体重は約２，５倍に増加する。体重の増加があっても、基本的な構造に変形を生じない、しっかりした材質の芯を用いる。
つぎに表面加工Ｇである。肌あたりが良くなるよう、柔らかな素材で芯を覆う。（参照図４）この表面加工Ｇは、肌あたりを良くすると同時に、乳児の衣類と表面加工Ｇとの摩擦によって、乳児がだっこ籠の中で不安定に滑ることを防ぐ。また、保育者がだっこ籠を使用してだっこしたりスリングを用いた場合、摩擦によって、だっこ籠自体が不安定になることを防ぐ。
背もたれ部Ａの上端部は、保育者の腕にかかるように背面側に折り返されて（反りＤ）、だっこや入浴の際に、安定感を増す構造である。（参照図３）
だっこ籠は、乳児の身体を安定保持しながらも、保育者の負担とならないように、軽量であり、使用方法は簡便で、携帯性に優れている。だっこの際は、このだっこ籠に乳児を座らせ（参照図５・６）、籠ごと持ち上げて使用する。あるいは、だっこ籠をスリングのポーチ部に入れ、そこに乳児を座らせて使用する。（参照図７）入浴は、だっこ籠に裸の乳児を座らせ、そのままベビーバスに入れて入浴させる（参照図８・９） The childcare device according to the present invention includes a backrest portion A that supports the buttocks straight from the head, a seat surface portion B that stably holds the hips, the buttocks body sides, and the crotch, and is raised from both sides of the backrest portion. A supporting body stable holding portion C is provided. (Hereafter, this childcare equipment will be called “cuddle bowl”. Here, because of the similar shape of the cuddle bowl and the sitting chair, it is expressed as “sit”. The infant is in a sleeping state because it is used by holding it with its heel sideways.) (Reference Figure 1)
By letting the baby sit in this octopus, it compensates for the difference in physique between the infant and the childcare person, so that anyone can easily, easily, safely and stably perform the octopus.
The backrest A is conditioned on a length that supports at least the lower half of the head to the buttocks when an infant sitting until the neck sits down. With this length, infants right after birth can be held stably from the entire head to the buttocks, and can support the lower half of the head even if the infant's height is extended, so the infant in a time when the neck sits down It can be said that even the height of the can stably hold from the head to the buttocks. (Reference Figures 5 and 6)
Furthermore, regarding safety considerations, first, the core F molded from a strong material that does not deform even when the baby's weight increases is used. (Reference figure 4) The weight of the infant increases about 2.5 times from the time of birth until the neck slips. Use a solid material core that does not deform the basic structure even when weight increases.
Next is surface processing G. Cover the core with a soft material to improve skin contact. (Reference FIG. 4) This surface processing G improves the contact with the skin, and at the same time prevents the baby from slipping unstablely in the cocoon due to friction between the baby's clothing and the surface processing G. In addition, when a childcare worker uses a octopus candy or uses a sling, the octopus itself is prevented from becoming unstable due to friction.
The upper end of the backrest A is folded back (warp D) so as to be placed on the child's arm, and has a structure that increases the sense of stability when taking a bath or taking a bath. (Reference figure 3)
The octopus carp is light in weight, easy to use and excellent in portability so as not to be a burden on the childcare person while stably holding the baby's body. In this case, the baby should be seated on this octopus cage (see Figs. 5 and 6) and lifted with the heel. Alternatively, put the octopus bowl in the pouch part of the sling, and use the baby sitting there. (See Fig. 7) For bathing, let a naked baby sit in a octopus bowl and put it in the baby bath as it is (see Fig. 8 and 9).

背もたれ部Ａの効果で、だっこ籠に座らせた際、腕で直接抱くよりも頭部のぐらつきが無く、腹部にも圧迫感の無い安定した状態でだっこすることが出来る様になる。
座面部Ｂの効果で、だっこ籠に座らせた際、乳児の臀部から臀部体側部、股間にかけて、包み込むような状態が得られ、その結果、乳児の身体全体を安定保持することが出来るようになる。
胴体安定保持部Ｃの効果で、だっこ籠に座らせた際、乳児の不安定な横方向移動を制限し、両側ら支え、脱落を防ぎ、安定した状態を得られるようになる。
上記３点の効果で、生後から首がすわるまでの時期の、身体の発達が充分でない乳児を、素手で抱くよりも、誰でも、楽に、簡単に、安全に、安定した状態で抱っこしたり、入浴させたりすることができるようになる。その結果、保育者の疲労感は軽減され、より良い保育の機会が得られるようになる。 Due to the effect of the backrest part A, when sitting on the octopus cocoon, the head is not wobbled rather than holding it directly with the arm, and the abdomen can be rubbed in a stable state without a feeling of pressure.
Because of the effect of the seat surface part B, it is possible to obtain a state of wrapping from the baby's buttocks to the buttocks side and crotch, so that the entire body of the infant can be stably held. Become.
Due to the effect of the torso stable holding portion C, when the baby is seated on the octopus, the unstable lateral movement of the baby is restricted, and both sides are supported and prevented from falling off, so that a stable state can be obtained.
With the above three effects, anyone can easily, safely, and stably hold an infant with poor physical development from the time of birth until his / her neck slips, rather than holding it with bare hands. To be able to take a bath. As a result, the feeling of fatigue of the childcare person is reduced, and a better childcare opportunity can be obtained.

全体は、生後から首がすわるまでの時期の乳児の、頭部から臀部まで背中を真っ直ぐな状態で安定保持する背もたれ部Ａと、臀部から臀部体側部および股間にかけて包みこむようにして安定保持する座面部Ｂと、背もたれ部Ａの両側部の中ほどに、胴体の不安定な横方向移動を制限し乳児の胴体を両側から支え安定保持するための胴体安定保持部Ｃとで構成されている。（参照図１）
背もたれ部Ａの上端部には、背面側への反りＤを設けてもよい。この反りＤは、だっこっこの際、手掛かりにして安定感を増すためのものであるが、必要に応じて取り付ける。（参照図３）
背もたれ部Ａは、縦方向には平坦で、長さは、首がすわる時期の乳児の、少なくとも頭部下半分から臀部までを支えるに足る長さである。背もたれ部Ａの横方向には、乳児の胴体の丸みに添って、乳児の安定保持のための緩いカーブが設けられており、そのカーブは背もたれ部Ａの上部はほぼ平坦であり、下部に向かうにしたがって大きくなっている。続く座面部Ｂに至って緩い卵殻様形状のカーブとなっており、乳児の臀部から臀部体側部、股間を包み込むように安定保持する。背もたれ部Ａの横方向の幅は、首がすわる時期の乳児の胴体が入り、不安定に横方向に移動しない幅である。（参照図１）
背もたれ部Ａの両側部の中ほどには、背もたれ部Ａから続いて胴体安定保持部Ｃが隆起している。乳児が座るべき空間を、背もたれ部Ａ、座面部Ｂとともに構成し、乳児の胴体の不安定な横移動を制限して脱落を防ぎ、乳児を両側から安定保持する。（参照図１）
胴体安定保持部Ｃの大きさは、乳児が顔を横に向けて行う授乳を妨げず、また背もたれ部Ａの両側部下部から座面部Ｂへ続く部分に、脚を籠の両横外側に出して座ることが出来る空きＥを設ける事を妨げない大きさである。具体的には、胴体安定保持部Ｃの大きさは、首がすわる時期の乳児の、脇の下から脚の付け根までを保持する大きさであって、かつ、生後すぐの乳児が顔を横に向けて授乳することを妨げない大きさであることが必要である。（参照図１）
また、乳児は平均より小さく生まれる事もあれば、平均より大きく育つこともある。この身体の大きさの個体差や成長の変化に対応するため、数種類の大きさの籠を用意することが望ましい。あるいは、生後すぐの小さい乳児を座らせるときには、大きめの籠にタオル等を敷き、その上に乳児を座らせて使用し、身体が成長してくれば、タオルを使わず座らせ方を変える事で対応しても良い。（参照図５・６）
背もたれ部Ａ下部から座面部Ｂへと続く部分は、緩い卵殻様形状となっており、首がすわる時期の乳児の臀部から体側部・股間を包みこむように安定して座らせることが出来るように構成されている。かつ、背もたれ部Ａの両側部の下部から座面部Ｂへと続く部分は、乳児が脚を籠の両側部外側に出して座る事を妨げないように、空きＥとなっている。（参照図１）
座面部Ｂは、乳児が脚を籠の両側部外側に出して座る事を妨げず、かつ乳児の臀部全体を収納するにふさわしい広さであって、臀部から臀部体側部を包みこむように安定保持し、乳児の股間が置かれる部分は、座面の後部から前部へと緩く上方へカーブしており、臀部、臀部体側部、股間を安定保持している。（参照図１）
抱っこ籠は左右対称である。（参照図２）
材質については、高い密着感を得るため軽量であること、かつ乳児を座らせるに充分な強度を持っていることである。この素材をだっこ籠の芯として成型したものを芯Ｆとする。生後から首がすわる時期までに、乳児の体重は約２．５倍となる。この体重増加に耐える強度であることが必要である。体重を主に受け止める背もたれ部Ａの縦方向中央部分と、背もたれ部Ａから胴体安定保持部Ｃへ続く部分、背もたれ部Ａから座面部Ｂに続く部分には、特に配慮して芯材を厚く強度を持たせて成型する。芯材には、強度と粘りを併せ持った、例えばポリプロピレン・ＡＢＳ樹脂等のプラスチック、またはアルミ等の軽金属を成型加工する。（参照図４）
次にこの芯Ｆに、肌あたりの良さと滑り止めを兼ねた表面加工Ｇを施す。表面加工Ｇは、乳児の身体を優しく受け止める弾力性と、保育者の腕やスリングとよく摩擦して滑り止めとなる摩擦性を持ち、かつ入浴にも使用できるように、撥水性、耐熱性、抗菌性を持った素材であることが必要である。例えば、シリコンゴムやウレタン塗装などの加工を施す。（参考図４）
さらに、情操に好影響となる、魚柄・果物柄・動物柄・無地などの色彩やデザインを施すとなお良い。 The whole consists of a backrest A that holds the back straight from the head to the buttocks of the baby from the time of birth until the neck sits down, and a seat surface that stably holds the wrapping from the buttocks to the hip body side and crotch. B and a torso stable holding part C for restricting unstable lateral movement of the torso and supporting and stably holding the infant's torso from both sides are formed in the middle of both sides of the backrest part A. (Reference figure 1)
A warp D toward the back side may be provided at the upper end of the backrest A. This warp D is used as a clue to increase the sense of stability at this time, but is attached as necessary. (Reference figure 3)
The backrest A is flat in the vertical direction, and the length is long enough to support at least the lower half of the head to the buttocks of the baby when the neck sits down. In the lateral direction of the backrest A, along the roundness of the infant's torso, a loose curve is provided for the stable holding of the infant, and the upper part of the backrest A is substantially flat and heads downward. It grows according to. The curved surface has a loose eggshell-like shape that reaches the subsequent seating surface portion B, and stably holds the baby's buttocks from the buttocks to the buttocks body side and the crotch. The lateral width of the backrest A is a width that the baby's torso at the time when the neck is seated enters and does not move in an unstable lateral direction. (Reference figure 1)
In the middle of both side portions of the backrest portion A, the trunk stable holding portion C is bulged from the backrest portion A. The space where the baby should sit is configured with the backrest part A and the seating surface part B to restrict the unstable lateral movement of the baby's body to prevent the baby from falling off and to hold the baby from both sides stably. (Reference figure 1)
The size of the torso stable holding portion C does not prevent the baby from feeding the baby face-to-side, and the legs are placed on both lateral sides of the heel in a portion that extends from the lower part of both sides of the backrest A to the seat surface B. It is a size that does not interfere with the provision of a vacant E that can be seated. Specifically, the size of the torso stable holding portion C is the size that holds the baby from the armpit to the base of the leg when the neck sits down, and the baby immediately after birth turns its face sideways. It must be large enough to prevent breastfeeding. (Reference figure 1)
Infants may be born less than average or grow larger than average. In order to cope with individual differences in body size and changes in growth, it is desirable to prepare several types of cocoons. Alternatively, when sitting a small infant right after birth, lay a towel on a large bag, use the infant on it, and if the body grows up, change the way you sit without using a towel. You may respond with. (Reference Figures 5 and 6)
The part that extends from the lower part of the backrest A to the seating surface B has a loose eggshell-like shape so that it can be stably seated so as to wrap the body side and crotch from the buttocks of the infant when the neck sits down. It is configured. And the part which continues to the seat surface part B from the lower part of the both sides of the backrest part A becomes the space | gap E so that it may not prevent an infant taking out a leg on the both sides outer side of a heel. (Reference figure 1)
The seat B does not prevent the infant from sitting on the outside of both sides of the heel, and is suitable for storing the entire buttock of the infant, and stably holds the side of the buttock body from the buttock. The portion where the baby's crotch is placed curves gently upward from the rear to the front of the seating surface, and stably holds the buttocks, the buttocks body side, and the crotch. (Reference figure 1)
The cuddle is symmetrical. (Reference figure 2)
As for the material, it should be lightweight to obtain a high feeling of adhesion, and should have sufficient strength to make an infant sit. A core F is formed by molding this material as the core of a octopus bowl. By the time the baby sits after birth, the infant's weight increases by about 2.5 times. It must be strong enough to withstand this weight gain. Thicken the core material with special consideration for the center part in the longitudinal direction of the backrest A that mainly receives weight, the part that continues from the backrest A to the body stability holding part C, and the part that continues from the backrest A to the seat surface B. To mold. For the core material, for example, a plastic such as polypropylene / ABS resin or a light metal such as aluminum having a strength and a viscosity is molded. (Reference figure 4)
Next, the core F is subjected to a surface processing G that is both good for the skin and prevents slipping. Surface treatment G has the elasticity to gently receive the baby's body, the friction property that it rubs well with the child's arm and sling and becomes non-slip, and can also be used for bathing, water repellency, heat resistance, It must be a material with antibacterial properties. For example, processing such as silicon rubber or urethane coating is performed. (Reference figure 4)
In addition, it is better to apply colors and designs such as fish pattern, fruit pattern, animal pattern, and plain color, which have a positive effect on emotion.
