Description

Technical field The present invention relates to an insert for a baby carriage with a removable mattress and an arrangement of an insert in a baby carriage with a removable mattress. State of the art In the prior art, inserts for pram baby baths are known which have a gap between the mattress and the edge. Description of the invention The present invention relates in a first aspect to an insert for a pram baby bath with a removable mattress, comprising a base section with a circumferential rim extending away from the base section, wherein a rear side of the base section has a receptacle which is configured to receive the mattress in a removable manner. The pram carrycot can be a bassinet. The insert, especially the base section, can be oval-shaped. The base section can form a lying surface for the baby. The insert can have an upward-facing opening. The rim can be continuous along the base section. The rim can have one or more removable edge cushions that hold the rim in a shape extending away from the base section. The mattress can be oval-shaped. The shape of the mattress can be adapted to the shape of the base section. Inserting the mattress can give the insert shape stability. The insert can form the lying surface without a gap or space between the base section and the mattress. This prevents objects from getting stuck in the gap. This can minimize or eliminate the risk of injury from such objects.Furthermore, this prevents direct contact between the baby lying in the insert and the mattress. According to one embodiment, the receptacle can encompass the mattress only at its edge. The receptacle can, for example, include an elastic section that can tightly enclose the edge of the mattress. This ensures that the mattress can be easily and quickly removed and placed in the receptacle. According to one embodiment, the receptacle can have an overlapping slot, wherein the receptacle is configured to completely enclose the mattress when inserted. The receptacle preferably includes a connecting element, preferably a hook-and-loop fastener, which is arranged at the overlapping slot and is configured to make the overlapping slot closable. The overlap can be such that the mattress arranged in the receptacle is only in contact with the base section and the receptacle. This allows the mattress to be arranged in the receptacle in a dimensionally stable manner. The arrangement of a connecting element at the overlapping slot can close the receptacle, so that the mattress remains within the receptacle. The connecting element can consist of two connecting elements, which are arranged at the two overlapping areas that form the overlapping slot. According to one embodiment, the overlapping slot on the back of the base section can run at an angle. The overlapping slot can run obliquely, particularly diagonally, from one edge section to an opposite edge section. This oblique orientation can create a larger opening for inserting and removing the mattress. This can simplify the insertion and removal of the mattress. According to one embodiment, the insert can have two handles arranged on opposite sides of the rim. The handles can be integrally formed with the rim. The handles can be detachably connected to the rim. The handles allow the insert to be removed from the stroller bassinet. The handles can improve the ergonomics of removal. According to one embodiment, the insert can be made of textile material. The insert can be formed from the textile material in one piece. The textile material can provide a comfortable surface for the baby lying in the insert. The textile material can improve the baby's comfort while lying down. According to one embodiment, the insert can be made of several textile elements sewn together. The seams can be located on the side facing away from the baby's lying surface. This can improve comfort and safety. According to one embodiment, the mattress can be made of a padding material. The mattress can be made of a foam material, in particular a sufficiently thick foam material. The padding material can improve sleeping comfort. According to one embodiment, the path-extending edge can have a connecting device at an end area opposite the bottom section for connecting the insert to the stroller-baby tub. The connecting device can be designed to attach to a corresponding connecting device on the pram bassinet. The connecting device can be a zipper, a hook-and-loop fastener, or a snap closure. It can include one or more connecting elements. The connecting device can extend completely around the edge. This allows the insert to be securely attached to the pram bassinet, which can increase the insert's safety. A second aspect concerns an arrangement of an insert in a pram bassinet with a removable mattress, wherein the insert comprises a base section with a circumferential rim extending away from the base section, and wherein the mattress is arranged on a rear side of the base section between the insert and the pram bassinet. The mattress can be loosely placed between the insert and the pram bassinet. This makes removing the mattress easier. The respective advantages and further features can also be found in the description of the first aspect, whereby elaborations of the first aspect also form elaborations of the second aspect and vice versa. Brief description of the characters Fig. 1 schematically shows an insert for a pram bassinet. Fig. 2 schematically shows a mattress being placed in a recess of the insert from Fig. 1. Fig. 3 schematically shows a reverse side of the base section of the insert from Fig. 1, where the recess only encompasses the mattress at one edge. Detailed description of embodiments Fig. 1 schematically shows an insert 1 for a pram bassinet with a removable mattress 2. The insert 1 comprises a base section 10 with a circumferential rim 12 extending away from the base section 10, wherein a rear surface 14 of the base section 10 has a recess 16 designed to hold the mattress 2 in a removable manner. The insert 1 is made of several elements of textile material that are sewn together. The insert 1 has two handles 3 which are arranged on opposite sides of the rim 12. The path-extending edge 12 has a connecting device 19 at an end region opposite the base section 10 for connecting the insert 1 to the stroller bassinet. The connecting device 19 is, in this case, a fully circumferential zipper element which can be connected to a corresponding zipper element of the stroller bassinet. Mattress 2 is made of a padding material and is shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 2 schematically shows the mattress 2 being placed in a recess 16 of the insert 1 from Fig. 1. The recess 16 has an overlapping slot 18. The recess 16 is designed to completely enclose the mattress 2 when placed in the recess, and it includes a connecting element (not shown) located at the overlapping slot 18. This connecting element is designed to allow the overlapping slot 18 to be closed. The overlapping slot 18 runs diagonally along the back 14 of the base section 10. The textile material is deformable, allowing the insert to be deformed when the mattress is placed in the recess. Fig. 3 schematically shows a reverse side 14 of the bottom section 10 of the insert 1 from Fig. 1 . Except for the mounting, the insert in Fig. 3 can be identical to that in Fig. 2. The mounting 16 encompasses the mattress 2 only in an edge region 20 of the mattress 2. The mounting is designed as a clamping mount, so that the mattress 2 can be held stably in the mounting. According to an embodiment not shown, the mattress can also be loosely arranged between the pram bassinet and the insert. In this case, the mattress is not attached to the insert and is merely in loose contact.
