first embodiment

[0048] [First Embodiment]

[0049] A head guard structure and head guard pad of a child equipment according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1-3. FIG. 1 is a plan view of a child equipment. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the entirety of a head guard pad 40A that will be described afterwards. FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken in the direction of the arrow of line III-III in FIG. 2.

[0050] The child equipment of the present invention includes a receiving concave 60 for receiving a baby 100. This receiving concave includes a main unit 2 protecting baby 100 from the backside, and a sidewall 1 protecting the side region of baby 100. Baby 100 has his / her head protected by head guard pad 40A and his / her body protected by a body pad 50 at the inner region of receiving concave 60.

[0051] [Head Guard Pad 40A]

[0052] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, head guard pad 40A includes a flexible pad 10A directly in contact with the head of baby 100, enclosing the head top region ...

second embodiment

[0064] [Second Embodiment]

[0065] A head guard structure and the head guard pad of a child equipment according to a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 6-8. The structure is basically similar to the structure of the above-described first embodiment. Therefore, only the difference will be described. FIG. 6 is a plan view of the child equipment. FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the entirety of a head guard pad 40B that will be described afterwards. FIG. 8 is a sectional view taken in the direction of the arrow of line VIII-VIII of FIG. 7.

[0066] According to the head guard structure and head guard pad of a child equipment of the present embodiment, fixture pad 30B is configured to enclose the head top and temporal region of the head of baby 100 similar to flexible pad 10A and impact absorption pad 20A, instead of the configuration in which the outer circumferential plane of fixture pad 30A is in accord with the inner circumferential plane of sidewall 1. Fixture pa...

third embodiment

[0074] [Third Embodiment]

[0075] A head guard structure and head guard pad of a child equipment according to a third embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10. Since the structure is basically similar to the structure of the previous first and second embodiments, only the difference will be described. FIG. 9 is a perspective view of a head guard pad 40C that will be described afterwards. FIG. 10 is a plan view of head guard pad 40C.

[0076] Head guard pad 40C of the present embodiment is configured to fill the gap present at the corner region of the child equipment.

[0077] [Function Advantage]

[0078] The function and advantage similar to those of the previous first and second embodiments can be obtained even in the case where head guard pad 40C having the configuration of the above fixture pad 30C is employed.

[0079] Similar to the first and second embodiments, although an integral structure in which flexible pad 10A, impact absorption pad 20A and fixture pad 30C are r...

Abstract

There are provided a flexible pad (10A) in direct contact with the head of a baby (100), enclosing the head top region and temporal region of the head of the baby (100), an impact absorption pad (20A) at an outer side of the flexible pad (10A), enclosing the head top region and temporal region of the baby (100) likewise the flexible pad (10A), and a fixture pad (30A) having a configuration in which the outer circumferential plane is in accord with the inner circumferential plane of a sidewall (1) so as to fill the gap between the impact absorption pad (20A) and the sidewall (1). By employing this structure, a child equipment that can guard the life and brain of an infant can be provided based on the medical standard of an infant.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to child equipments for infants of the newborn baby period, the babyhood period, and during the period of a toddler. More particularly, the present invention relates to a structure of a child equipment that can protect the life and brain of an infant.[0002] The most important feature in a child equipment is the superior capability of safety and comfortableness for the infant. It is particularly critical to protect the life and brain of an infant in the first several months of life whose brain is not yet completely developed.[0003] Although an infant is often thought to be a miniaturized analogy with a grown up, the faculty for life is still immature. There is a possibility that any application of a concept similar to that for a grown up, if taken improperly, may produce harmful aftereffects. For example, consider the case of an external impact applied due to a car accident. Since a baby's head is relatively heavy and the muscle of the neck suppor...
