Description

The present invention relates to a childcare aid that assists in carrying and / or piggybacking an infant.

For example, as disclosed in JP2007-215551A, childcare aids that assist in holding an infant are known. This childcare aid, also called a baby carrier or babysitter, has been widely used when taking out infants. By using the childcare aid, the user does not have to keep supporting the infant with his / her own hands, the degree of freedom of action is greatly increased, and the user can take a comfortable posture.

As disclosed in JP2007-215551A, childcare aids usually include a sheet-like support body. The support body portion includes a back support portion facing the back of the infant and a buttock receiving portion facing the crotch and buttocks of the infant. The dimensions of the support body, especially the buttock receiving portion, need to be set according to the physique of the infant so that the infant is supported in an appropriate posture. Specifically, childcare aids used for newborn babies with a small body size need to have a small width of the buttock receiving portion so as to prevent dislocation of the hip joint of an infant. Alternatively, it is necessary to deform the support main body so that the width of the buttock receiving portion matches the physique of the infant. That is, if the width of the buttock receiving portion is too large with respect to the size of the buttocks of the infant, the leg of the infant is pressed against the user's body by the support main body portion, and the infant cannot bend the leg freely. For this reason, it is necessary to set the width of the buttock receiving portion according to the size of the infant's buttocks or to deform the support main body so that the infant's legs are not pinched between the support main body and the user. be. On the other hand, for infants with a large physique, it is necessary to set a large width of the buttock receiving portion so that the buttocks can be wrapped. Further, in order for the infant to be supported in an appropriate posture, it is necessary to place the infant in an appropriate position on the support main body when wearing the childcare assisting device.

However, when the width of the buttock receiving portion is set according to the physique of the infant, the degree of freedom in designing the support main body portion is reduced. In addition, it is complicated to deform the support main body so that the width of the buttock receiving portion matches the physique of the infant. Further, even if the support main body is designed or deformed according to the physique of the infant, it is difficult to grasp the appropriate position of the infant on the support main body.

The present invention has been made in consideration of the above points, and it is possible to increase the degree of freedom in designing the support main body and to easily realize that the infant is supported in an appropriate posture. The purpose is to provide assistive devices.

The childcare aid according to this embodiment is
A sheet-shaped support body that forms a space for accommodating infants with the user,
The mounting belt connected to the support body and
It includes a seat support portion that protrudes from the inner surface of the support main body portion that faces the user.

According to the present invention, it is possible to increase the degree of freedom in designing the support main body portion, and it is possible to provide a childcare assisting device that can easily realize that an infant is supported in an appropriate posture.

<Seat support>
The seat support portion 70 supports the buttocks of the infant i held by the childcare aid 10 from below. Further, the seat support portion 70 is for guiding the legs of the infant i to an appropriate position. Specifically, the purpose is to guide the legs of the infant i so that both legs of the infant i are comfortably bent to form an M shape. Here, when both legs of the infant i are pressed against the user c by the support main body portion 20, the infant i cannot bend the knee freely. In order to prevent such a situation, the seat support portion 70 forms a space between the support main body portion 20 and the user c so that the infant i can bend his / her knees. In the illustrated example, the seat support 70 is made of a flexible material so that the shape of the seat support 70 matches the shape of the buttocks of the baby i when the baby i sits on the seat support 70. Has been done. As a result, the buttocks of the infant i can be stably supported. In addition, it is possible to provide the infant i with a comfortable sitting comfort.

As shown in FIG. 5, the seat support portion 70 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape as a whole, and protrudes from the inner surface 20a of the support main body portion 20.

As shown in FIG. 5, the seat support portion 70 includes a bottom surface 71, a side surface 72 rising from the bottom surface 71, and a seat surface 73 forming a surface opposite to the bottom surface 71. As can be understood from FIG. 5, the bottom surface 71 is supported from below by the support main body 20 in a state where the childcare assisting tool 10 is attached to the user c. Further, the side surface 72 is supported by the support main body 20 from the side opposite to the side of the user c (from the rear of the infant i) in a state where the childcare assisting tool 10 is attached to the user c. The seat surface 73 is connected to the upper edge of the side surface 72. Such a seat support portion 70 can form a space between the support main body portion 20 and the user c, and can prevent the legs of the infant i from being pressed against the user c by the support main body portion 20. .. Therefore, the infant i seated on the seat support portion 70 can comfortably bend both legs to form an M-shape. Further, by seating the infant i on the seat support portion 70, the position of the infant i with respect to the user c can be raised when the user c is wearing the childcare assisting device 10. As a result, the user c can easily support the infant i. Further, when the physique of the infant i is small, raising the position of the infant i with respect to the user c makes it easier for the user c to observe the infant i. Further, as will be described later, when arranging the infant i on the support main body 20, the user c grasps an appropriate position of the infant i on the support main body 20 with reference to the seat support 70. can do. This contributes to supporting the infant i in an appropriate posture with the childcare aid 10.

In the example shown in FIG. 7, the width (dimension in the lateral td) W of the seat support portion 70 is adjusted to the size of the buttocks of an infant who is 1 month to 4 months old and weighs 8 kg or less. It is set. More specifically, when the infant i seated on the seat surface 73 of the seat support portion 70 bends both legs in an M shape, the legs of the infant i follow both sides of the seat support portion 70 in the lateral direction td. As described above, the width W of the seat support portion 70 is set.

Since the width W of the seat support portion 70 is set as described above, the width W of the seat support portion 70 is larger than the width (dimension in the lateral direction td) of the tail receiving portion 24 of the support main body portion 20. Is also small. Since the width of the buttock receiving portion 24 of the support main body 20 is larger than the width W of the seat support 70, the support main body 20 can cover and protect the legs of the infant i seated on the seat support 70. can. Further, in the illustrated example, the seat support portion 70 is detachably fixed to the support main body portion 20. Therefore, if the seat support body 70 is removed from the support body 20, the wider support body 20 can appropriately support the buttocks of older (and therefore larger) infants.

The seat support portion 70 will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 5 and 7 to 8. FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the seat support portion 70 as viewed from the side of the seat surface 73 with the seat portion support portion 70 removed from the support main body portion 20. Further, FIG. 8 is a perspective view of the seat support portion 70 shown in FIG. 7 as viewed from the bottom surface 71 side with the lid cloth member 75d described later opened. In the following description, the terms "front", "rear", "upper" and "lower" with respect to the seat support portion 70 and its components and the fixture 80 described later are the support main bodies, respectively, unless otherwise specified.
