Problems solved by technology

These types of carriers however, both have drawbacks in terms of usability and functional flexibility.
First, all of the typical prior art child carriers predominantly rely upon shoulder strap support for support.
This can cause a problem for the typical user during extended wear due to the fact that support is provided through the users shoulders and back and thus fatigue and pain can result.
Also, according to prior art designs, the majority of the load bearing is carried through the shoulder straps, leading to a concentration of force on the shoulder straps.

Such strap-on carriers typically take the form of a compartment carrier device, or a sling. Typically, the sling device is configured to completely wrap the child's body. The sling may include openings placed in appropriate positions for the child's arms and legs to protrude through the sling while the child's torso is supported by the sling, thus allowing the child's arms and legs to move freely. Alternate versions may completely cover or support the child without leaving any opening...
