Description

BACKGROUND1. Technical Field[0001]The present disclosure generally relates to shoulder straps, and, more particularly, to shoulder straps applicable to a baby carrier, which can be more effectively adjustable to fit different users' needs so the user does not have to purchase different carriers for the different shoulder straps thereof.2.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0031]The disclosure is able to provide the width of the shoulder strap which is adjustable by the decompression extension member depending on different requirements of every user when carrying a baby. When the decompression extension member is folded up, the shoulder straps adjoin against on the user's shoulder, so as that the user can carry the baby carrier easily. The decompression extension member can extend when the user carries the baby in a front position. The strap body and the unfolded decompression extension member can not only cover the entire shoulder from the top of the shoulder to the upper portion of the user's upper arm but also more closely fit the curvature of the back side of the user's shoulder, and thereby the pressure on the user's shoulder can be distributed effectively and evenly to the whole shoulder and part of the user's upper back in a more ergonomic way. Therefore, the shoulder strap of the present disclosure provides various corresponding settings configuration for every user to fit their needs and to cope with the baby's varying weights.

Problems solved by technology

However, the decompression blocks are known to be thick and non-breathing.

Therefore, users would be sweltered by these straps in hot weather.

On the other hand, thinner and more breathing shoulder straps cannot effectively distribute the pressure from baby's weight.

However, the decompression block 91 is so thick that it would make the user sweltered and uncomfortable in hot weather.
