Description

[0040] Further features, details, and advantages of the invention are derived from the wording of the claims as well as from the description hereunder of exemplary embodiments by means of the drawings in which:

[0041] FIG. 1 shows a diagram of the external side of a carrying device in which a length extension element is situated in that position in which said length extension element lengthens the receptacle member of the carrying device in the height direction, and in which widening elements are situated in a position of maximum width;

[0042] FIG. 2 shows a diagram of an internal side of the carrying device as per FIG. 1, in which the length extension element is situated in that position in which said length extension element does not lengthen the receptacle member of the carrying device in the height direction, and in which the widening elements continue to be situated in the position of maximum width;

[0043] FIG. 3 shows a diagram of the internal side of the carrying device as per FIG. 2, in which the widening elements are in a position of medium width; and

[0044] FIG. 4 shows a diagram of the internal side of the carrying device as per FIG. 3, in which the widening elements are situated in a position of minimum width.

[0045] FIGS. 1, 2, 3, and 4 include in each case a diagram of the same carrying device 1, wherein the external side is illustrated in FIG. 1 and the internal side is illustrated in FIGS. 2, 3, and 4. The same reference signs therefore relate to identical or equivalent components.

[0046] It can be seen in FIG. 1 that the carrying device 1 has a receptacle member 10 which configures a receptacle space for receiving a baby or infant. The receptacle member 10 is composed substantially of textile materials which are partially not padded and partially padded.

[0047] Moreover, the carrying device 1 possesses a holding harness system 40 for fastening the receptacle member 10 to a carrier. The holding harness system 40 has a hip strap 44 and two carrying straps 56, 57 which are configured as shoulder straps. The carrying straps 56, 57 at least in portions possess shoulder pads 68, 69. The hip strap 44 extends in a longitudinal direction L and has an internal side 45 (see FIGS. 2, 3, and 4), an external side 46, an upper edge 47, and a lower edge 48. The hip strap 44 herein has a padded strap 49 and an outer tension strap 50. The tension strap 50 possesses a closure element 51 for opening and closing, as well as a tensioning device 53 so as to be able to set the width of the hip strap 44. Furthermore, the closure element 51 is secured by a securing installation 52 which prevents immediate releasing or opening, respectively, of the hip strap 44 upon opening of the closure element 51 (the second part of the closure element 51 lies outside the image region). The securing installation 52 is configured in the manner of a sling such that the buckle first catches on the sling. However, the carrier is free to decide to not use the sling in that said carrier places the tension strap 50 across the sling instead of through the sling.

[0048] The receptacle member 10 has an non-padded central part 11 which supports the baby or infant, and which is connected to the upper edge 47 of the hip strap 44 at a first connection point 41. The central part 11 in the upper region 12 is connected indirectly to the two carrying straps 56, 57 of the holding harness system 40. On account thereof, the central part 11 lies between the upper ends 58, 59 of the two carrying straps 56, 57 and the first connection point 41, and spans the infant in a vertical manner.

[0049] The central part 11 from an upper region 12 narrows in the direction toward the hip strap 44. In particular, the central part 11 has a symmetrical basic shape of an isosceles trapezoid. The shorter of the two base sides of the trapezoidal basic shape is disposed in the region of the first connection point 41 and configures a connecting edge of the first connection point 41 to the hip strap 44. The first connection point 41 is a seam in the horizontal direction H and is thus configured so as to be non-releasable (indications of directions refer to an upright position of the carrier). The legs of the trapezoidal basic shape are configured so as to be slightly concave.

[0050] The first connection point 41 in the longitudinal direction L of the hip strap 44 is between 1 cm and 12 cm wide, preferably between 2 cm and 10 cm wide, furthermore preferably between 3 cm and 8 cm wide, even furthermore preferably between 4 cm and 7 cm wide, and particularly preferably between 4.5 cm and 6 cm wide.

[0051] The central part 11 is tensioned between two padded tension cords 62, 63 which are connected to straps 64, 65 of the holding harness system 40. The tension cords 62, 63 from the ends of the long base side of the trapezoidal basic shape run up to the first connection point 41 and are connected, or stitched, respectively, to the central part 11 across the entire length of the legs of the trapezoidal basic shape, said connecting or stitching, respectively, in particular taking place by way of the internal edges of the tension cords 62, 63. The lower ends of the carrying straps 56, 57 (not visible) may configure the straps 64, 65 that are connected to the two tension cords 62, 63. Said lower ends in this instance form carrying slings which either run so as to be mutually parallel or alternatively can be disposed in a cruciform manner.

[0052] The carrying straps 56, 57 have closure elements 72, 73 for opening and closing the carrying straps 56, 57. The closure element 72, 73 herein can be secured by a sling-type securing installation 74, 75 which prevents immediate releasing or opening, respectively, of the carrying straps 56, 57 upon opening a closure element 72, 73.

[0053] The receptacle member 10 is configured in such a manner that the height thereof is variable. To this end, the receptacle member 10 has a length extension element 25 which according to FIG. 1 is positioned in such a manner that the receptacle member 10 in the height direction is lengthened by the length extension element 25. The length extension element 25 lies between the central part 11 and the two carrying straps 56, 57. The receptacle member 10 above the length extension element 25 also possesses a terminal portion to which the carrying straps 56, 57 are fastened. The length extension element 25 is an inward fold which can be fixed by way of fixing means 26. The fixing means 26 according to FIG. 1 are released, on account of which the inward fold is pulled apart in the vertical direction V. The fixing means 26 are configured by a zip fastener which runs in the horizontal direction H. One zip fastener strip is disposed on the terminal portion, and one zip fastener strip is disposed on the long base side of the central part 11. The terminal portion, the length extension element 25, and the central part 11 preferably have one continuous material web. The length extension element 25 with the aid of the fixing means 26 can be adjusted between at least two positions, specifically a first position in which the height of the receptacle member 10 is not increasedas is shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 4, and a second position in which the height of the receptacle member 10 is increasedas is shown in FIG. 1. In particular, the length extension element 25 can be fixed in the first position thereof by way of the fixing means 26.

[0054] The carrying device 1 furthermore has a cloth-type head part 30 which is fixedly connected to the receptacle member 10, said connecting taking place in particular along a horizontally aligned seam at the upper end of the receptacle member 10. Fastening elements 31, 32 in the form of rubber slings are disposed on the free end of the head part 30. Said rubber slings can be hooked into receptacle elements 33, 34 on the carrying straps 56, 57. To this end, the receptacle elements 33, 34 are in each case configured as a hook. The head part 30 on account of the displaceable mounting of the receptacle elements 33, 34 on the carrying straps 56, 57 can be tensioned or loosened. The head part 30 can be rolled up or folded up or gathered in the vertical direction V, and in this instance can be pushed in each case into one insertion pocket 35, 36 at the horizontally lateral ends of the head part 30, said insertion pocket 35, 36 being sewn shut between the carrying straps 56, 57 and the receptacle member (see FIGS. 2, 3, and 4).

[0055] As is derived from FIGS. 1, 2, 3, and 4, but can better be seen in FIGS. 2, 3, 4, a first and a second padded widening element 13, 14 is connected to the central part 11 in the upper region of the central part 11 of the external side, in particular at the ends of the long base side of the trapezoidal basic shape, said connecting taking place in particular in a non-adjustable and non-releasable manner. The ends of the long base side of the trapezoidal basic shape form the opposite ends of the upper region 12. The first widening element 13 extends to a second connection point 42 to the hip strap 44, the position of said second connection point 42 being able to be adapted in a stepless manner by displacing the first widening element 13 along the hip strap 44. The second widening element 14 likewise extends to a third connection point 43 to the hip strap 44, the position of said third connection point 43 being able to be adapted in a stepless manner by displacing the second widening element 14 along the hip strap 44. The first connection point 41 lies between the second and the third connection point 42, 43. Moreover, the first and the second widening element 13, 14 extend in the direction of the upper edge 47 of the hip strap 44.

[0056] In this way, a widening of the seat can be effected by longitudinally displacing the first and the second widening element 13, 14 along the longitudinal direction L of the hip strap 44 as well as away from the first connection point 41. The maximum adjustable seat width is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. Conversely, a narrowing of the seat can be effected by longitudinally displacing the first and the second widening element 13, 14 along the longitudinal direction L of the hip strap 44 as well as in the direction of the first connection point 41. FIG. 3 shows a setting of medium width, and FIG. 4 shows the narrowest possible seat width.

[0057] As is seen in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, and 4 the second and the third connection point 42, 43 has in each case one sling 19, 20 which is disposed on the widening elements 13, 14 and is mounted so as to be displaceable on the hip strap 44. The widening elements 13, 14 are in each case configured so as to be tape-shaped and on the internal side 45 as well as on the upper edge 47 of the hip strap 44 transition to the slings 19, 20.

[0058] The slings 19, 20 in the longitudinal direction L of the hip strap 44 as well as on the lower edge 48 of the hip strap 44 are configured so as to be wide, in particular at least 2 cm, preferably at least 3 cm, furthermore preferably at least 4 cm, and particularly preferably at least 5 cm wide. When comparing FIGS. 1 and 2 it can be seen that the slings 19, 20 in the region of the lower edge 48 of the hip strap 44 on the internal side 45 and on the external side 46 have in each case substantially identical widths. At least no abrupt change in terms of the width is present here. This is however not the case on the upper edge 47 of the hip strap 44. The slings 19, 20 here on the internal side 45 of the hip strap 44 are in each case configured so as to be wider than on the external side 46. The region of the slings 19, 20 which is disposed on the internal side 45 as well as on the upper edge 47 of the hip strap 44 in the direction toward the first connection point 41 projects beyond the region of the sling 19, 20 which is disposed on the external side 46 as well as on the upper edge 47. As can be seen in FIG. 4, on account thereof the first and the second widening element 13, 14 on the internal side 45 of the hip strap 44 are in each case at least in part able to be slid up to just before the first connection point 41. The minimal spacing that is able to be set between the external edges 17, 18 of the first and the second widening element 13, 14 in the region of the hip strap 44 in this instance corresponds substantially to the width of the first connection point 41 plus the width of the two slings 19, 20 on the external side 46 in the region of the upper edge 47 of the hip strap 44.

[0059] As is derived from FIG. 4, a fixing installation 21 by way of which the spacing of the widening elements 13, 14 from the hip strap 44 is able to be delimited is moreover provided. Said fixing installation 21 is composed of two string ends which can be knotted to one another and which are in each case fastened to one of the widening elements 13, 14.

[0060] A stop 54 for avoiding stress peaks on account of contact between the connection points 41, 42, 43 beyond which the second and the third connection point 42, 43 are not able to be longitudinally displaced farther toward one another is provided. The stop 54 is configured by a widening of the hip strap 44, in particular of the padded strap 49.

[0061] The first connection point 41 being disposed in a depression of the upper edge 47 of the hip strap 44 moreover contributes towards achieving this very narrow seat width, on account of which the slings 19, 20 are inclined obliquely inward in the direction of the first connection point 41. On account thereof, the friction of the slings 19, 20 on the hip strap 44 is also increased such that the stress on account of the received child does not lead to the slings 19, 20 being displaced.

[0062] The padded strap 49 according to FIG. 1 is disposed in the slings 19, 20 and has a substantially homogenous width across the displacement path. The tension strap 50 of the hip strap 44 lies outside the slings 19, 20. The tension strap 50 and the padded strap 49 are not connected to one another across the length of the displacement path.

[0063] In the case of a practically oriented dimensional layout as is shown in FIG. 4, the second and the third connection point 42, 43 are able to be displaced toward one another so far that external edges 17, 18 of the first and the second widening element 13, 14 in the region of the hip strap 44 have a mutual spacing between 14 cm and 28 cm, furthermore preferably between 16 cm and 27 cm, even furthermore preferably between 18 cm and 26 cm, and particular preferably between 20 cm and 24 cm. As can be seen in FIG. 3, the second and the third connection point 42, 43 are also able to be displaced toward one another so far that the external edges 17, 18 of the first and the second widening element 13, 14 run toward one another in the direction toward the hip strap 44.

[0064] Conversely, the second and the third connection point 42, 43 are able to be displaced outwards so far that the external edges 17, 18 of the first and the second widening element 13, 14 diverge in the direction toward the hip strap 44 (see FIGS. 1 and 2). For a practically oriented dimensional layout, the second and the third connection point 42, 43 should be able to be longitudinally displaced away from one another so far that the external edges 17, 18 of the widening elements 13, 14 in the region of the hip strap 44 have a mutual spacing between 30 cm and 55 cm, furthermore preferably between 35 cm and 50 cm, even furthermore preferably between 37 cm and 47 cm, and particularly preferably between 40 and 45 cm.

[0065] It can furthermore be seen in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, and 4 that an intermediate piece 15, 16 which does not have any connection, in particular any fixed connection, to the hip strap 44 is in each case tensioned between the first and the second widening element 13, 14 and the central part 11. The intermediate pieces 15, 16 widen in each case in the direction toward the hip strap 44 and have in each case a substantially triangular basic shape. The external edges 17, 18, but not the internal edges, of the widening elements 13, 14 are in each case connected to the respective intermediate piece 15, 16. The widening elements 13, 14 herein lie in each case on the internal side in front of the associated intermediate piece 15, 16. As can be seen in FIGS. 3 and 4, said intermediate piece 15, 16 can fold, wherein the child is in contact with the widening elements 13, 14 primarily on the internal side. The widening elements 13, 14 are preferably padded, and the intermediate pieces 15, 16 are preferably not padded.

[0066] Furthermore, a corner of the intermediate pieces 15, 16 of the internal side 45 extends in each case below the upper edge 47 of the hip strap 44, in particular into the region of the lower edge 48. The intermediate pieces 15, 16 in this region are laterally connected to the slings 19, 20. On account thereof, the intermediate pieces 15, 16 when stressed are tensioned by way of the upper edge 47 of the hip strap 44 and are able to support the infant. Moreover, the infant is not in direct contact with the external side 46 of the hip strap 44 between the second and the third connection point 42, 43.

[0067] The receptacle member 10 thus does not possess any additional element which is disposed between the baby or infant and the carrier. On account thereof, direct physical contact is possible between the carrier and the baby or infant. The baby or infant by way of the posterior region sits substantially on the central part 11 and between the widening elements 13, 14 which conjointly configure a type of pocket. The thighs up to the hollows of the knees bear on the widening elements 13, 14, and the thighs in the case of the correct setting of the seat width are slightly spread in an anatomically correct manner.

[0068] The construction of the holding harness system 40 permits an infant to be carried in various positions. The following variants are possible herein: [0069] i. the receptacle member 10 is disposed on the stomach of the carrier, wherein the carrying straps 56, 57 cross one another on the back; [0070] ii. the receptacle member 10 is disposed on the stomach of the carrier, wherein the carrying straps 56, 57 are shaped so as to form slings and do not cross one another; [0071] iii. the receptacle member 10 is disposed on the back of the carrier, wherein the carrying straps 56, 57 are shaped so as to form slings and do not cross one another; [0072] iv. the receptacle member 10 is disposed on the back of the carrier, wherein the carrying straps 56, 57 cross one another on the chest; and [0073] v. the receptacle member 10 is disposed laterally on the hip of the carrier, wherein one of the carrying straps 56, 57 is closed in an oblique manner across the shoulder, and the other carrying strap 56, 57 is closed in a vertical manner at the back.

[0074] In all positions, the baby or infant can sit in the receptacle member 10 so as to face the carrier. However, receiving the baby or infant in the receptacle member 10 so that said the baby or infant faces away from the carrier is also possible in particular when the receptacle member 10 is carried on the stomach of the carrier.

[0075] The carrying device 1 according to the invention guarantees an orthopedically correct carrying mode which is adapted to the requirements of the infant as well as to those of the carrier. Infants of most diverse sizes, in particular also new-born infants, can be received in the carrying device 1 according to the invention on account of the various setting variants which are enabled by the length extension element 25 for lengthening the receptacle member 10 and the seat width setting. The carrying device 1 has a very low weight and can be folded to a small size.

[0076] The invention is not limited to any of the embodiments described above, but can be modified in many ways.

[0077] Inter alia, the carrying strap 56, 57 can have an adjustment installation for varying the strap length. A further setting possibility can optionally be provided in that the carrying straps 56, 57 have at least one adjustment installation for varying the effective length of the shoulder pads 68, 69. In this way, not only is strap length adapted to the physique of the carrier, but the position of the padded portions can also be adjusted.

[0078] Moreover, the holding harness system 40 can have a chest strap which is fastened to the carrying straps 56, 57. Such a chest strap prevents that slings of the carrying straps 56, 57 that are worn in parallel slip from the shoulders of the carrier. Such a chest strap should have an adjustment installation for varying the strap length, and a closure element for opening and closing the chest strap. The chest strap is preferably mounted on the carrying straps 56, 57 so as to be displaceable in the direction of extent of said carrying straps 56, 57. A comfortable position can be set on account thereof.
