Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a bathing auxiliary device for infants, which supports the infants so as to keep them in a standing state during bathing. Background Art

[0002] Generally, infants aged 5 to 24 months cannot stand on their own or remain standing for long periods of time. Therefore, when bathing or cleaning feces after defecation, the caregiver needs to hold the infant in the shower with one hand while operating the shower head and cleaning with the other hand, which is very inconvenient.

[0003] In order to solve this problem, a variety of bathing aids that can support infants to maintain a standing state during bathing have been proposed. As an example of the prior art, the following will refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The structure of the infant bathing assistive device described in Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2022-0131036 will be described in detail.

[0004] Conventional bathing aids include: an upper body portion 10, which supports the child's upper body to maintain a standing position; a pair of armrests 20, formed on either side of the upper body portion 10, which support the child's arms to prevent the child from falling; a lower body portion 30, formed on the lower side of the upper body portion 10 to prevent the bathing aid from tipping over; and a height adjustment portion 40, which can adjust the height of the upper body portion 10 relative to the lower body portion 30. Furthermore, the armrests 20 are rotatable in both inward and outward directions, and their operation is restricted to selective outward rotation, so that the armrests 20 do not open arbitrarily and the child can lean on the armrests 20 stably.

[0005] However, the existing bathing aid has the following problems: when the armrest 20 is rotated inward, not only will a strong impact sound be continuously generated, but also when the armrest 20 is rotated outward, the protector needs a large force to release the operation restriction of the armrest 20.

[0006] Specifically, the existing bathing aids need to narrow the armrest 20 inward according to the body shape of the child, and at the same time, it is necessary to limit its free opening in the outward direction. As a solution, an angle adjustment part composed of a pair of saw gears and a compression spring is used, which inevitably produces a continuous impact sound. That is, the existing bathing aids such as Figure 2As shown, the fixed sawtooth 15 is integrally formed in the upper main body 10, and the rotating sawtooth 25 connected thereto is formed to be linked to the armrest 20, and a compression spring 27 is inserted in the axial direction of the rotating sawtooth 25. According to the rotation direction of the rotating sawtooth 25, its connection is selectively maintained. In contrast to the horizontal rotation of the armrest 20, the fixed sawtooth 15 and the rotating sawtooth 25 that limit its rotation perform relative reciprocating motion in the axial direction that is right angles to the rotation direction. Therefore, in order to utilize the two sawteeth of the armrest 20 to limit the rotation, it is only possible to rely on the compression spring 27 that pushes the two sawteeth in the axial direction. Due to the structural limitations as described above, when the armrest 20 rotates inward, there is a problem of continuously generating a strong impact sound of the two sawteeth colliding through the compression spring 27 while the rotating sawtooth 25 reciprocates in the axial direction.

[0007] In particular, for the safety of young children, the armrests 20 cannot be opened at will. Therefore, when a child leans on the armrests and the child's weight acts in the direction of opening the armrests 20, only a strong compression spring 27 can be used to fully maintain the connection between the two serrations. This, in turn, causes a louder impact sound. Furthermore, this impact sound occurs close to the child's ears, making the child feel even more repulsive.

[0008] In addition, in order to open the armrest 20 after bathing, it is necessary to release the connection between the rotating sawtooth 25 and the fixed sawtooth 15. However, since the force connecting the two sawteeth comes from the elastic force of the compression spring 27, a strong compression spring 27 as described above is used. Therefore, there is a problem that it is very difficult to release the rotation restriction of the armrest 20 by pressing it with a force greater than the elastic force of the compression spring.

[0009] In addition, when the existing bathing aid rotates in the inner direction of the armrest 20, the skin of the child may be squeezed into the gap between the upper body 10 and the armrest 20 or the skin may be squeezed and bruised, which may cause serious injuries. Figure 1 As shown, when the armrest 20 is rotated inwardly at the intersection A between the upper main body 10 and the armrest 20, the interaction with the pressure roller is played to squeeze the contacting object into the intersection A and squeeze it through friction. When the armrest 20 is rotated inwardly with the skin of the child in close contact with the intersection A, the skin of the child is squeezed into the gap through the operation of the intersection A. At the same time, since the gap is formed very narrowly, the skin is strongly squeezed to produce bruises, etc., and there is a problem that the degree of injury is very serious.

[0010] On the one hand, when using auxiliary bathing equipment, in order to prevent the child from feeling tired or having an unstable posture, it can also be equipped with components for stimulating the child's interest. Existing bathing auxiliary equipment is equipped with a display part, a soap bubble generating part, etc. However, if the child does not care about the interest stimulating component or the protector does not like the component, there is a serious problem that it cannot be replaced with other components. Moreover, when the child's interest decreases due to repeated use, it cannot be replaced with other components. In addition, since the components are included inside, they must be purchased together even if they are not used, which greatly increases the purchase cost.

[0011] At the same time, the following problems also exist: in order to stimulate the interest of children aged 5 to 24 months in using bathing aids, it is usually recommended to provide visual and tactile stimulation through the process of playing with direct touch by hands, but the display part may have a harmful effect on children of that age and cannot be called a safe visual stimulation component. Since the soap bubble generating part generates bubbles at the armrest 20 where the armpit is located, it cannot be called an effective interest stimulating component considering factors such as it is difficult to reach and touch directly and the possibility of soap bubbles flowing into the child's mouth.

[0012] On the one hand, the structure of the existing bathing aid is that there is a drainage hole only at the pedal where the child steps on the lower main body 30, and the gap between the bottom of the bathroom or bathtub and the bottom of the lower main body 30 is very narrow. Therefore, there is a problem that washing water or foreign matter such as feces that flows into the inside of the pedal is difficult to drain out. Most of the washing water and the like are mainly discharged through the open rear part of the lower main body 30. In particular, due to the inclination of the bottom of the bathroom or bathtub, when the bathing aid is tilted forward, there is a problem that the washing water and the like cannot be discharged quickly. In addition, foreign matter such as feces cannot flow out quickly in the pedal and may get on the child's feet again. Even if it flows out from the drainage hole, it may adhere to the bottom of the bathtub or the bottom of the lower main body 30 due to the narrow gap with the bottom, causing serious hygiene problems. There is also the problem of a safety accident in which the child may slip due to the washing water during the accumulation of washing water.

[0013] At the same time, the bathing aid is used in the bathroom and is usually kept at the bottom of the bathroom or bathtub. Compared with the small bathroom area, the bathing aid is relatively large. When the bathroom is used for other purposes, it will cause inconvenience due to the space occupied by the bathing aid. The bottom of the lower main body and other parts that contact the bottom of the bathroom are prone to residual moisture, and there is a possibility of mold and other problems. The bathing aid is not in the bathroom, but is brought to the living room or room, etc., and is often used for other purposes such as supporting young children when changing diapers or clothes. Due to the storage method as described above, the moisture on the bottom of the lower main body is not easy to dry, and water droplets will drip into the living room or room when moving, causing inconvenience and hygiene problems.

[0014] On the other hand, although the outward rotation of the armrests on both sides is restricted to prevent the child from falling off the upper main body, if the child's weight is excessively concentrated on the ends of the armrests, the flexible upper body of the child may escape through the space between the ends of the armrests, or if the child with underdeveloped lower body muscles sits down, the child's neck may escape from the space between the ends of the armrests, causing the child to fall off the upper main body and be injured.

[0015] At the same time, the armrest is hinged to the upper body portion and rotates, inevitably forming an operating hole, such as Figure 1 As shown, the armrest is formed in a horizontal structure. The water flowing into the armrest through the operating hole not only cannot be discharged to the outside naturally, but also causes the inconvenience of tilting the bathing aid in order to drain the water. In this process, the water may enter deeper. Therefore, when water remains in the armrest, there will be not only water sound inside the bathing aid, but there is also a hygienic problem of causing mold to grow inside. Summary of the Invention

[0016] Technical problems to be solved

[0017] The present invention aims to solve the problems of the conventional bathing aid for infants as described above. When constituting a rotation control member for limiting the operation of the armrests provided on both sides of the bathing aid, the interactive rotation control members are formed on the same plane to avoid relying on a strong compression spring acting perpendicularly to the rotation plane of the armrests. The external force of rotating the armrests is used as the control force, thereby eliminating the need for a strong compression spring, reducing noise, and allowing the rotation restriction release operation to be performed with less force. By forming a skin protection member, when the armrests are rotated inward, the movement of the intersection of the upper body and the armrests prevents the infant's skin from being squeezed into the gap between the upper body and the armrests or being squeezed and injured. By making the play member detachable, the problem of not being able to replace it with a safe play member preferred by the infant or guardian, or not being able to purchase the bathing aid separately, is solved. The drainage hole is not formed only in the pedal. By forming a drainage port and a drainage passage at the boundary portion located in front of or on the side of the pedal, the drainage hole is eliminated. The invention provides a detachable anti-skid plate on the upper portion of the lower body to prevent children from slipping and falling on the upper portion of the lower body. The hanging member prevents children from being stored at the bottom of a bathroom or bathtub, making storage in the bathroom easier and enabling efficient use of bathroom space. The anti-slip portions formed at the ends of the handrails are spaced less than 3 cm apart, preventing the neck, the thinnest part of a child's upper body, from passing through. This effectively blocks the possibility of slack, preventing excessive concentration of the child's weight on the ends of the handrails, and preventing children with underdeveloped lower body muscles from sloughing off between the ends of the handrails when sitting down. The handrails also provide a partition to block water flow, minimizing the area where water can flow in. The drain port for draining water that flows in prevents water from remaining inside the handrails, solving the problems of water noise and mold growth.

The skin protection component is a preset space portion formed in any one or all of the armrest and the upper main body to prevent the skin from being stuck. The skin protection component is a blocking component that blocks part or all of the gap between the upper main body and the armrest.

[0021] Furthermore, the invention is characterized in that any one or all of the boundary portions of the front and side surfaces of the pedal formed on the lower main body form a discharge port, and the bottom surface of the lower main body forms a discharge passage connected to the discharge port.

[0027] Beneficial effects

[0028] According to the bathing aid for infants of the present invention, interactive rotation control components are formed on the same plane, so that the rotation of the armrest is controlled by utilizing the external force of the rotating armrest instead of the elastic force of the strong compression spring. As a result, noise can be reduced when the armrest is operated. This not only has the effect of eliminating the repulsive feeling felt by infants due to the strong noise, but also has the effect of removing the rotation restriction with less force.

[0029] In addition, according to the bathing aid for infants of the present invention, a space portion is formed at the junction of the upper main body and the armrest to prevent the skin from being stuck, so that when the armrest is rotated toward the inside, the skin of the infant is squeezed in to a minimum. Even if a part of the skin is squeezed in, it will not be squeezed and injured. A blocking component is provided to block the skin of the infant from being squeezed in at the source, so that bruises and other injuries will not occur. The effect is that the infant can use it stably without feeling any rejection.

[0030] In addition, the play components are detachable, so that the play components that the child or guardian likes most can be efficiently replaced and used, and the bathing aid without the play components can be purchased according to the consumer's choice. Therefore, it not only has the effect of saving the purchase cost of the bathing aid, but also can select the play components that can stimulate safe vision and touch that are generally recommended according to the age of the child using the bathing aid. While the child is using the bathing aid, the child can play games with the eyes and directly touch the play components with the hands, which can not only stimulate the child's interest, but also can expect the effect of brain development through the visual and tactile stimulation and the exercise of small muscle development through the behavior of touching with the hands.

[0031] In addition, the bathing aid for infants according to the present invention has a drainage outlet of sufficient size formed at the boundary portion located in front of or on the side of the pedal, which can smoothly drain the washing water and foreign matter such as feces that flow into the inside of the pedal in a short time. This has the hygienic effect of preventing foreign matter such as feces from getting on the feet of the infant again in the pedal, or from being discharged from the drainage hole and getting on the bottom of the bathroom or bathtub or the bottom of the lower main body, and has the effect of minimizing the phenomenon of infants slipping due to accumulated washing water.

[0032] In addition, the bathing aid makes it easy to store in the bathroom through the hanging component, has the effect of being able to efficiently use the bathroom space, and is easy to dry without producing mold and can be used hygienically. When the bathing aid is not placed in the bathroom but brought to the living room or room, etc., and used for other purposes such as supporting a young child when changing diapers or clothes, moisture on the bottom of the lower main body is easy to dry, which has the effect of preventing water droplets from dripping into the living room or room during movement, causing inconvenience and hygiene problems.

[0033] In addition, a detachable anti-skid plate is formed on the upper part of the lower main body, thereby minimizing the phenomenon of young children slipping on the lower main body due to accumulated washing water. At the same time, the anti-skid plate can be easily disassembled and assembled through the disassembly component, and washing can also be easily carried out, which has the effect of preventing the formation of scale or mold.

[0034] Furthermore, when the armrest is fully narrowed for use, the spacing between the two anti-detachment portions formed at the end of the armrest is less than 3 cm, so that a child's neck cannot pass through. This prevents the neck, the thinnest part of the child's upper body, from passing through. This prevents the child's weight from being excessively concentrated on the end of the armrest, and also prevents children with underdeveloped lower body muscles from escaping from between the two armrests when sitting down.

[0035] At the same time, partitions are formed on the upper and lower sides of the interior of the handrail, and the ends of the partitions are connected and overlapped with each other, thereby blocking the water flowing into the operating hole of the handrail from flowing to other divided spaces at the source, which has the effect of minimizing the water inflow interval. The drain outlet is formed on the bottom surface of the handrail. Even if the handrail is formed into a horizontal structure, the water flowing in through the operating hole will naturally be discharged without remaining inside the handrail. It has the effect of not causing inconvenience to users due to internal water sound and not causing sanitary problems such as internal mold growth. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0049] According to the bathing auxiliary device for infants of the present invention, a pair of armrests 200 are formed on both sides of the upper main body 100, and the lower side of the upper main body 100 forms a lower main body 300 and a height adjustment portion 400. Figures 3 to 20 The various components of the bathing aid according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0050] The upper body 100 of the bathing aid according to the present invention supports the child's upper body, allowing the child to stand. A pair of rotatable armrests 200, hinged to either side of the upper body 100, support the child's arms or armpits while preventing the child from escaping from the upper body 100. Because they contact the child's body, the upper body 100 and armrests 200 are preferably formed with gentle curves, and their surfaces can be made of either hard or soft materials. Furthermore, the armrests 200 can be rotated inwardly or outwardly. A rotation control member 500, selectively rotatable in at least one of two directions, is linked to the armrests 200 to restrict their operation. Preferably, the rotation control member 500 restricts outward rotation of the armrests 200, preventing them from opening freely. This allows the child to rest comfortably on the armrests 200, allowing them to rotate freely inwardly, and the width of the armrests 200 can be adjusted to suit the child's body size. On the one hand, the bidirectional rotation of the armrest 200 can also be controlled according to the user's preferences.

[0051] The structure of the rotation control component 500 is described in more detail as follows. The rotation control component 500 linked to the armrest 200 includes: a fixed wheel 510, which is formed on both sides of the main body 100; a rotating wheel 520, which is located on the same plane relative to the fixed wheel 510 and is linked to the armrest 200; stoppers 550, 560, 570, which intervene between the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 to limit and release the relative rotation between the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520; a position setting component, which interferes with the operating range of the stoppers 550, 560, 570, so that they move within a certain range. In addition, it can also additionally include: a contact holding component, which keeps the stoppers 550, 560, 570 in contact with the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 in the direction in which the restriction is implemented.

[0052] The restriction is formed by the narrowing effect of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 and the stoppers 550, 560, and 570 interposed therebetween. In detail, when the rotating wheel 520 is rotated in the direction in which the relative rotation of the rotating wheel 520 relative to the fixed wheel 510 is restricted, the relative spacing between the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 and the pressurized areas of the stoppers 550, 560, and 570 becomes narrow, that is, the spacing between the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 is narrowed, or the spacing between the two pressurized areas of the stoppers is opened, or through a process in which both changes occur simultaneously, the relative rotation of the rotating wheel 520 relative to the fixed wheel 510 is restricted by the narrowing effect of the two pressurized areas of the stoppers 550, 560, and 570 interposed between the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 being in pressurized contact with the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 respectively.

[0053] On the one hand, during the restriction operation, when the stoppers 550, 560, 570 are not in contact with and are separated from the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 in the direction in which the restriction is implemented, there is a possibility that an immediate stenosis effect is not formed, so that the rotating wheel 520 partially rotates before the stenosis effect occurs, or depending on the situation, the stenosis effect cannot be effectively formed. As a component to minimize this situation, it is preferable to have a contact holding component to keep the stoppers 550, 560, 570 in contact with the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 in the direction in which the restriction is implemented.

[0054] In addition, during the limiting operation, a concave-convex portion is formed in at least any one of the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510, the rotating wheel 520 and the stoppers 550, 560, 570, which can prevent the stoppers 550, 560, 570 from sliding and make the narrowing effect more secure.

[0055] The release is achieved by disengaging from the state forming the narrowing effect. Specifically, when the rotating wheel 520 is rotated in the direction in which the restriction on the relative rotation of the rotating wheel 520 relative to the fixed wheel 510 is released, the relative spacing between the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 and the pressurized areas of the stopper is opened, that is, the spacing between the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 is opened, or the spacing between the two pressurized areas of the stopper is narrowed, or both changes occur simultaneously, the two pressurized areas of the stopper interposed between the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 are disengaged from the state of pressurized contact with the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520, respectively, and the restriction on the relative rotation of the rotating wheel 520 relative to the fixed wheel 510 is released.

[0056] On the other hand, as described above, in order for the stoppers 550, 560, and 570 to stably implement restriction and release, their operating range needs to be limited. Through the combination of the pressure area and position setting components of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520, the operating range of the stoppers can be limited to a certain range.

[0057] Below, refer to Figures 4 to 8 , illustrating an embodiment of a rotation control member 500 according to the present invention, the fixed wheels 510 of the rotation control member 500 are formed on both sides of the upper main body 100, and the rotating wheel 520 linked to the armrest 200 is inserted into the center of the fixed wheel 510, and at least one stopper 550 is inserted between the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520, and at least one recessed groove 530 is formed, the stopper 550 is located here, and the recessed groove 530 can be formed on the rotating wheel 520, or as Figure 6 As shown, the recessed groove 530 formed in the fixed wheel 510, according to one embodiment, has an inclined surface 531, where the inclined pressure zone is located. As the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 rotate relative to each other, the spacing between the pressure zones formed on the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 can be narrowed, either for a constricting effect or opened to escape from this state. Furthermore, the recessed groove 530 forms a sidewall 532, which, in addition to the inclined surface 531, serves to limit the operating range of the stopper 550 to a certain horizontal position. The combination of this sidewall and the pressure zones of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 restricts the operating range of the stopper 550 to a certain range.

[0058] Therefore, according to one embodiment, when the armrest 200 is rotated in the direction in which the rotation is restricted, the rotating wheel 520 is constrained to the fixed wheel 510 through the narrowing effect of the fixed wheel 510, the rotating wheel 520 and the stopper 550, and the rotation is restricted. The greater the external force for rotating the armrest 200, the greater the force constraining the armrest 200. Even without using a strong compression spring, the rotation of the armrest 200 can be effectively controlled by relying solely on the external force acting on the armrest 200.

[0059] On the one hand, the stopper 550 of the rotation control member 500 according to one embodiment is not limited to its shape. Figures 4 to 6 As shown, it can be formed into a ball with point contact, or into a cylinder with line contact (not shown), or as Figure 7 as well as Figure 8 As shown, it is constructed as a polyhedron with surface contact.

[0060] In addition, the rotation control member 500 is preferably further formed with an elastic body 580 or a magnetic body 585 as a release retaining member, so as to maintain the state in which the stopper 550 contacts the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 in the direction in which the restriction is implemented. Specifically, during the rotation restriction operation of the rotation control member 510, when the stopper 550 does not contact the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 in the direction in which the restriction is implemented but is separated, no immediate stenosis effect will be generated. Before the stenosis effect occurs, the rotating wheel 520 partially rotates, or depending on the situation, the stenosis effect cannot be effectively generated. As a contact retaining member to minimize this, the elastic body 580 is formed, so that the stopper 550 can maintain contact with the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520. At this time, the elastic body 580 is as Figure 5 as well as Figure 6 As shown, it can be formed into a coil shape, or as Figure 7 In addition, considering the position where the recessed groove 530 is formed, the elastic body 580 can be formed on the fixed wheel 510 or the rotating wheel 520, or on the stopper 550, and can also be formed as one with the fixed wheel 510, the rotating wheel 520 or the stopper 550 as needed.

[0061] In addition, refer to Figure 8 As the release retaining member, an example of using a magnetic body 585 is described as follows: any one of a pair of magnetic bodies 585 constituting the contact retaining member is formed on the rotating wheel 520 or the fixed wheel 510, and the other is formed on the stopper 550. By utilizing the attractive force or repulsive force generated between the magnetic bodies 585 on both sides, the stopper 550 can maintain contact with respect to the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520.

[0062] On the one hand, the rotation limiting effect of the armrest 200 is not limited by the action of the elastic body 580 or the magnetic body 585, but is limited by the narrowing effect of the external force of rotating the armrest 200. Therefore, the elastic force of the elastic body 580 and the magnetic force of the magnetic body 585 only need to be sufficient to keep the stopper 550 in contact with the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520.

[0063] Furthermore, in order to prevent the sliding phenomenon of the stopper 550 and make the narrowing effect more secure, as Figure 7 As shown, a concave-convex portion 555 can be formed at least at any one point in the pressurized area of ​​the fixed wheel 510, the rotating wheel 520 and the stopper 550. At this time, the concave-convex portion 555 can be a protrusion formed on either side of the pressurized area, or a combination of a protrusion and a groove formed on both sides of the contact surface. Its shape is not limited to a sawtooth shape, a triangle, a semicircle, a slant line shape, a dot shape, etc.

[0064] Reference Figure 9 as well as Figure 10 Another embodiment of the rotation control component is described as follows: the stopper 560 provided in the rotation control component 500 is a non-shaped roller in line contact with the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520, and an inclined surface 565 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of one side or both sides of the stopper 560 so that the distance between the corresponding pressurized areas on the two side surfaces gradually changes. When the armrest 200 is rotated in the direction of limiting rotation, the stopper 560 rotates in the direction of increasing the distance between the pressurized areas on the two side surfaces, and at the same time, the two pressurized areas of the stopper 560 play a narrowing role in pressurized contact with the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520, thereby limiting the rotation of the armrest 200. When the armrest 200 is rotated in the direction in which the restriction is released, the stopper 560 rotates in the direction of reducing the distance between the pressurized areas on the two side surfaces, and at the same time, it disengages from the state of forming the narrowing role, so that the armrest 200 can rotate freely.

[0065] On the one hand, it is necessary to form a position setting member for enabling the stopper 560 to operate within a certain range, such as Figure 9 As shown, an additional guide ring 590 with at least one or more stoppers 560 recessed therein, or as shown Figure 10 As shown, a recessed groove 530 is formed in the fixed wheel 510 or the rotating wheel 520 so that the operating range of the stopper 560 can be limited to a certain range by utilizing its side wall 532 through the combination of the position setting member and the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520.

[0066] In addition, as a contact holding member for the stopper 560 relative to the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520, an elastic body 580 is preferably formed, such as Figure 10 As shown, it can be set on the stopper 560, and can also be selectively formed at any position among the fixed wheel 510, the rotating wheel 520, and the guide ring 590.

[0067] On the one hand, at least one of the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510 , the rotating wheel 520 and the stopper 560 is formed with a concave-convex portion, which can prevent the stopper 560 from sliding and make the narrowing effect more secure.

[0068] Reference Figure 11 , describing another embodiment of the rotation control member, which is formed by a combination of a stopper 570 provided on the rotation control member 500, a first component 571 that contacts the fixed wheel 510 or the rotating wheel 520 through a surface, and a narrow second component 572 that guides the first component 571 along the rotation direction of the rotating wheel 520. It is necessary to form a position setting component that enables the stopper 570 to operate within a certain range, form a recessed groove 530 and utilize its side wall 532.

[0069] Preferably, the first part 571 of the stopper 570 is a polyhedron, which is in surface contact with the inner circumference of the fixed wheel 510, and the second part 572 can be formed as a connecting part connecting the rotating wheel 520 and the first part 571. When the armrest 200 is rotated in the direction in which the rotation is restricted, the second part 572 of the stopper 570 rotates in the direction of pushing the first part 571 toward the fixed wheel 510 side, and at the same time plays a narrowing role in which the pressure areas on both side surfaces of the first part 571 and the second part 572 are pressurized and contacted with the pressure areas of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520, so that the rotation of the armrest 200 is restricted. When the armrest 200 is rotated in the direction in which the restriction is released, the second part 572 of the stopper 570 rotates in the opposite direction to the direction and disengages from the state in which the narrowing role is formed, so that the armrest 200 can rotate freely. Furthermore, an elastic body 580 may be provided as a contact and retention member for maintaining the stopper 570 in contact with the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 in the direction in which the rotation is restricted. Furthermore, a concave and convex portion may be formed in at least one of the pressurized areas of the fixed wheel 510, the rotating wheel 520, and the stopper 570 to prevent slippage of the stopper 570 and further strengthen the constriction effect.

[0070] On the one hand, in each embodiment of the rotation control member 500 according to the present invention, a cover portion 540 is preferably provided to prevent the rotating wheel 520 and the stoppers 550 , 560 , 570 from being separated from the fixed wheel 510 .

[0071] In the above description, the rotation control member 500 can have various embodiments according to the narrowing effect mode. In each embodiment, the shapes of the fixed wheel 510, the rotating wheel 520, and the stoppers 550, 560, 570 can also be configured in various ways. The shapes of the fixed wheel 510, the rotating wheel 520, and the stoppers 550, 560, 570 can be any shapes, as long as the relative distance between the pressure areas of the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 and the pressure areas of the stoppers 550, 560, 570 changes when the rotating wheel 520 rotates relative to the fixed wheel 510 and plays a narrowing effect, or can break free from this state. The contact mode of the stoppers 550, 560, 570 and the fixed wheel 510 and the rotating wheel 520 can also adopt point contact, line contact, surface contact, or a combination of the above contact modes. The present invention is not limited to the shapes of the fixed wheel 510, the rotating wheel 520, and the stoppers 550, 560, 570.

[0072] In the various embodiments of the present invention, the rotation control member 500 and the armrests 200 are selectively linked to each other, so that the armrests 200 can idle without being linked to the rotation control member 500, so that the armrests 200 on both sides can be freely opened toward the outside after bathing the child.

[0073] Specifically, if Figure 12 as well as Figure 13 As shown, a pair of armrests 200 hingedly coupled to the upper main body 100 include a rotating shaft 600 therein, and a plurality of locking protrusions 630 are formed on a portion of the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft 600. The locking groove 525 to which the locking protrusions 630 are coupled is formed at the rotation center of the rotating wheel 520 of the rotation control member 500. When the locking protrusions 630 and the locking groove 525 are coupled, the armrest 200 is linked to the rotation control member 500. When the locking protrusions 630 are disengaged from the locking groove 525, the armrest 200 is not linked to the rotation control member 500 and idles, and the rotation restriction relative to the armrest 200 is released, so that the armrest 200 can finally be freely opened toward the outside direction.

[0074] In the above, in order to selectively engage the locking protrusion 630 with the locking groove 525, the rotating shaft 600 needs to be able to move up and down in the axial direction while maintaining the engagement state relative to the armrest 200. Therefore, a sliding member having at least one protrusion and groove combination is provided, preferably, as shown in FIG. Figure 12 As shown, an upper groove 610 is formed on the upper side of the rotating shaft 600 and slidably engages with an upper protrusion 210 formed on the inner upper side of the armrest 200. A lower protrusion 620 is formed on the lower side of the rotating shaft 600 and slidably engages with a lower groove 220 formed on the inner lower side of the armrest 200. Alternatively, the protrusions and grooves may be formed in a reversed position as the sliding members formed on the rotating shaft 600 and the armrest 200, respectively.

[0075] Furthermore, the rotating shaft 600 normally maintains its locking protrusion 630 engaged with the locking groove 525 of the rotating wheel 520. Preferably, a spring 650 is interposed on the upper side of the rotating shaft 600, so that when the rotating shaft 600 is pushed upward, the locking protrusion 630 disengages from the locking groove 525 of the rotating wheel 520. The upper end of the spring 650 is supported on the upper inner side of the armrest 200, while the lower end of the spring 650 is supported on a supporting protrusion 640 formed on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 600. In this case, the elastic force of the spring 650 does not affect the rotation restriction function of the rotation control member 500, but only acts when the rotating shaft 600 is pushed upward and the rotation restriction on the armrest 200 is released. Ultimately, the strength of the spring 650 can be optimized based on user convenience. Meanwhile, the lower end of the rotating shaft 600, located within the armrest 200, passes through the bottom surface of the armrest 200, acting as a button for pushing the rotating shaft 600 upward.

[0076] The bathing aid for infants according to the present invention prevents the skin of the infant from being stuck in the gap between the upper main body 100 and the armrest 200, or serves as a skin protection member to prevent the skin of the infant from being squeezed and injured even if the skin of the infant is located in the gap, and forms a space portion 230 for preventing the skin from being stuck in the gap, or a blocking member 240 for blocking a part or all of the gap, as shown below. Figures 14 to 17 The skin protection member is described.

[0077] Specifically, when the armrest of the bathing aid is rotated inward, the intersection of the upper main body and the armrest squeezes the contacting object between the intersections by friction, and plays an interaction like a squeezing pressure roller. Therefore, when the skin of the child is in close contact with the intersection, when the handrail is rotated inward, the movement of the intersection causes the child's skin to be squeezed into the gap or squeezed and injured. Therefore, the skin protection member is formed with a space portion 230 for preventing skin from being stuck in the shape of the intersection of the upper main body 100 and the armrest 200 to avoid causing the interaction like the squeezing roller. It can be formed in any one or all of the intersections of the upper main body 100 and the armrest 200. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the space portion 230 for preventing skin from being stuck in the skin forms a space portion of a predetermined shape from the outside to the inside at the intersection of the armrest 200, that is, at least a part of the part that may be squeezed into the skin or squeezed by friction when the armrest 200 is rotated inward. Figure 3 as well as Figure 14As shown, at the junction of the armrest 200, a space portion is formed in the longitudinal direction as a concave shape to prevent the skin from getting stuck. By avoiding the formation of a shape that may cause interaction such as a squeezing roller, the junction of the upper main body portion 100 and the armrest 200 is prevented from squeezing into the closely attached skin through the gap at the junction during the process of narrowing the armrest 200 toward the inside. At the same time, even if the skin is squeezed in, the gap will become wider. Therefore, unlike the existing method of squeezing by being stuck in a narrow gap, the present invention is not squeezed, and therefore will not cause injury to the child.

[0078] In the above, as long as the shape of the intersection of the upper main body 100 and the armrest 200 can avoid the structure that causes interaction such as the squeezing roller, the shape of the space portion 230 for preventing skin from getting stuck can be any shape, and can be formed in various shapes such as a concave shape and a flat shape. The present invention is not limited to the shape of the space portion 230 for preventing skin from getting stuck.

[0079] In addition, refer to Figures 15 to 17 The structure of the blocking member 240, which serves as the skin protection component, is described as follows. The blocking member 240 partially or completely blocks the gap formed between the upper body 100 and the armrest 200, preventing the child's skin from entering the gap. Using a soft material such as silicone can avoid discomfort caused by contact with the child's skin while also partially or completely blocking the gap. Specifically, the blocking member 240 can be formed in various forms, such as a plate, a protruding area, or a covering. It can be formed on either the upper body 100 or the armrest 200, and can be formed in parallel with the skin-preventing space 230.

[0080] like Figure 15 As shown, the plate-shaped blocking member 240 is formed with a flat surface, partially or completely blocking the entrance to the gap formed between the upper body portion 100 and the armrest 200. As an example, fastening holes 120 are formed on both sides of the upper body portion 100. The blocking member 240 is detachable by means of a locking area 245 that engages with the fastening holes 120, thereby facilitating separation for washing or replacement of the blocking member 240. In one aspect, the locking area 245 is formed in a shape that is bent toward the fastening holes 120 of the upper body portion 100. The locking area 245 of the blocking member 240 can be designed in various forms and methods.

[0081] In addition, if Figure 16 As shown, the protruding area-shaped blocking component 240 is formed in a form that protrudes a considerable portion from the junction of the upper main body 100 and the armrest 200. When the armrest 200 is narrowed toward the inner side, it prevents the skin of the child from approaching the gap to block the skin from entering the gap.

[0082] In addition, if Figure 17 As shown, the covering blocking member 240 completely covers the gap entrance to prevent the baby's skin from squeezing into the gap. The covering blocking member can also be extended to the upper end of the upper body 100 or the upper end of the armrest 200.

[0083] In the above description, the blocking member can be formed in various shapes to block part or all of the gap, and the present invention is not limited to the shape of the blocking member.

[0084] Furthermore, as another safety feature, an anti-detachment portion 250 is formed at the ends of the armrests 200. Specifically, even if the outer rotation of the armrests 200 on both sides is restricted, if the weight of the child is excessively concentrated on the ends of the armrests 200, there is a possibility that the child's soft upper body may detach from the space between the ends of the armrests 200, or the child's neck may detach from the space between the ends of the armrests 200 when the child's lower body muscles are underdeveloped when sitting down, causing a fall. Figure 3 as well as Figure 14 As shown, in the present invention, the ends of the armrests 200 on both sides are formed with anti-detachment portions 250, which are gently curved and extended upward on the same line relative to each other, so as to stably support the back or chest of the child, thereby preventing the child from escaping from between the armrests 200. At the same time, when the armrests 200 on both sides are completely narrowed, the distance L between the anti-detachment portions 250 is less than 3 cm, so that the child's neck can be supported without falling even when the child sits down.

[0085] This is because the recommended usage age of the bathing aid for infants of the present invention is 5 to 24 months. Twenty infants aged 5 to 6 months, whose necks are the thinnest and who are at greatest risk of falling, were selected to investigate the situation of the necks of the infants passing through the anti-detachment parts 250 at various distances. The results are shown in Table 1. At a distance of 7 cm, all the infants passed through. Starting from a distance of 6 cm, some infants began to be unable to pass through. At a distance of 4 cm, most of the infants could not pass through but some did. At a distance of 3 cm, none of the infants could pass through. Therefore, when the distance L between the anti-detachment parts 250 on both sides is less than 3 cm, a significant substantial effect is achieved.

[0088] According to the infant bathing aid of the present invention, as a member for preventing water from flowing into the interior of the handrail 200 and causing hygienic problems such as mold, a plurality of drain ports 270 and partitions 281 and 282 are formed in the handrail 200. Specifically, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 as well as Figure 12As shown, in order for the armrest 200 to be hinged to the upper main body 100 and rotate, an operating hole H for inserting into the shell 150 of the upper main body 100 is inevitably formed. The water flowing into the interior of the armrest 200 through the operating hole H will not be naturally discharged to the outside, and it will also cause the inconvenience of tilting the bathing aid for drainage, and even in this process, the water may enter deeper. When water remains in the interior of the armrest 200 like this, the interior of the bathing aid will not only make a sound of water, but will also cause the hygienic problem of mold growth inside the armrest 200. The present invention forms a plurality of drain ports 270 on the bottom surface of the armrest 200 to prevent water from remaining. That is, as Figure 12 As shown, the interior of the handrail 200 is divided into a plurality of spaces by the reinforcing ribs, and a drain port 270 is formed on the bottom surface of the lowest position of each of the divided spaces so as to naturally drain the water flowing into the interior of the handrail 200. In addition, in order to minimize the interval of water flowing into the interior of the handrail 200, the present invention Figure 12 As shown, partitions 281 and 282 which also serve as reinforcing ribs are formed on the upper and lower sides of the interior of the armrest 200. The ends of the partitions 281 and 282 are connected and overlap with each other, thereby blocking the water flowing in through the operating hole H of the armrest 200 from flowing to other divided spaces at the source to minimize the water inflow interval.

[0089] At the same time, when assembling the handrail 200, the joints can be joined using ultrasonic or thermal welding, adhesives, resins, waterproof sealants, etc., to block water from flowing into the handrail 200 from the source.

[0090] The following describes the structure of the lower body 300 of the bathing aid according to the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, the lower body 300 is formed below the upper body 100 and comprises a footrest 310, which provides a space for a child to stand on and step on, and a boundary portion 320 that protrudes upward from the edge of the footrest 310. Even if the bathing aid tilts, the footrest 310 maintains its center of gravity due to the weight of the child. Therefore, the bathing aid is not tilted and returns to an upright position. The boundary portion 320 prevents the child from escaping the footrest 310 and simultaneously restricts the child's position, thereby maintaining the center of gravity of the lower body 300, which utilizes the child's weight.

[0091] Then, if Figure 3 as well as Figure 18As shown, the lower body portion 300 forms a drain port 330 in front of the pedal 310 where it meets the boundary portion 320. A drain channel 340 connected to the drain port 330 is formed on the bottom surface of the lower body portion 300, facing forward. This prevents wash water and foreign matter such as feces from accumulating in the pedal 310 and allows them to be promptly discharged. Specifically, the boundary portion 320 formed on the lower body portion 300 opens toward the rear of the bathing aid, allowing wash water and other foreign matter to drain easily toward the rear of the pedal 310. However, due to the sloped bottoms of typical bathrooms or bathtubs, wash water can accumulate in front of the pedal 310, along the direction in which the bathing aid is used. This is particularly unsanitary when cleaning feces after defecation. Feces can accumulate in front of the pedal 310, where a child steps, and can re-stain the child's feet, which can be very unhygienic. Therefore, the drain port 330 and drain channel 340 allow wash water and other foreign matter to be quickly discharged.

[0092] At this time, the discharge port 330 is formed in a tunnel shape relative to the boundary portion 320. In order to quickly discharge the washing water, etc., it is preferably formed with a wider width toward both sides. The discharge channel 340 formed on the bottom surface of the lower main body 300 smoothly discharges foreign matter such as feces discharged through the discharge port 330, ensuring sufficient space so that the bottom of the bathroom or bathtub or the bottom of the lower main body 300 will not be stained again. At the same time, it plays a role in guiding the flow of the washing water, etc. to one side.

[0093] In the above description, as long as the shape of the boundary portion 320 is formed on the side of the pedal 310, the discharge port 330 and the discharge channel 340 can be any shape, and can be formed into various shapes such as multiple tunnels with narrow widths. The present invention is not limited to the shape of the discharge port 330 and the discharge channel 340.

[0094] In addition, the bottom surface of the lower main body 300 is placed in multiple places relative to the bottom surface of the bathroom or bathtub to prevent the bathing aid from being conducted or sliding. Additionally, a friction component 370 formed of a material with a high friction coefficient is attached to multiple of the placement locations to increase the friction force, thereby expecting an anti-slip effect for the bathing aid.

[0095] In addition, the upper portion of the pedal 310 of the lower body 300 can also be detachably formed with an anti-skid plate 350 by means of a detachable member, thereby preventing accidents in which children may slip and fall. In this case, the anti-skid plate 350 is preferably formed of a soft and flexible resin with excellent anti-skid properties, such as silicone, rubber, TPE (Thermo Plastic Elastomer), or PVC (polyvinyl chloride), and is formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the pedal 310. Figure 19As shown, a protrusion 351 is formed on the upper surface of the anti-skid plate 350 to prevent the child's feet from sliding, and a recess 352 is formed on the bottom surface to improve the grip between the pedal 310 and the anti-skid plate 350. At the same time, when the child steps on the anti-skid plate 350, a cushioned feeling is generated through the recess 352. The anti-skid plate 350 also forms a plurality of through holes 353 to prevent water from accumulating and draining out quickly.

[0096] On the one hand, the disassembly and assembly component includes an adsorption plate 354 formed on the bottom surface of the anti-slip plate 350, which can make the grip relative to the pedal 310 more firmly disassembled and assembled. On the other hand, the disassembly and assembly component is formed on the fixing protrusion 355 formed on the bottom surface of the anti-slip plate 350 and the pedal 310, and is composed of a fixing groove 315 corresponding to the fixing protrusion 355, so that not only can the anti-slip plate 350 be disassembled from the pedal 310 simply and firmly without using adhesives such as glue, but the anti-slip plate 350 can also be easily washed, so that it can be managed cleanly without generating scale or mold.

[0097] The following describes the structure of the height adjustment part 400 in the present invention. The height adjustment part 400 is formed between the upper main body part 100 and the lower main body part 300 below it, and can adjust the height of the upper main body part 100 relative to the lower main body part 300. In more detail, it includes an upper support rod 410 formed on the lower side of the upper main body part 100; a lower support rod 430 formed on one side of the lower main body part 300 and inserted into the upper support rod 410, and a well-known fixing button 450 built into the lower support rod 430 and fixing the position of the upper support rod 410. The height adjustment part 400 according to the present invention is not limited to the operation method of the upper support rod 410, the lower support rod 430 and the fixing button 450.

[0098] The following describes the structure of the play member 700 of the present invention that stimulates the interest of young children. Young children who are unfamiliar with the use of the bathing aid for young children, or even those who are familiar with it, may find it difficult and their posture unstable as the bathing time becomes longer. Therefore, they need to pay special attention when bathing. The present invention allows the play member 700 to be detached from the upper body 100 or the height adjustment part 400, which can efficiently replace the play member that the child or guardian likes most. The bathing aid can be purchased without the play member according to the consumer's preference. Therefore, not only can the purchase cost of the bathing aid be saved, but also generally recommended safe play members that can stimulate vision and touch can be selected according to the age of the child using the bathing aid. During the use of the bathing aid, the child can observe with his eyes and directly touch the play member with his hands. This not only stimulates the child's interest, but also can be expected to develop the brain through visual and tactile stimulation and develop fine muscles through the behavior of touching with his hands.

[0099] Specifically, the play component 700 can be detached from any part of the bathing aid for infants, preferably from any part within the infant's sight and reach, thereby stimulating the infant's vision and sense of touch, that is, the infant can play while watching and touching. At this time, the play component 700 is not limited to the form of a fidget spinner, rattle, teething stick, etc.

[0100] Additionally, if Figure 3 as well as Figure 20 As shown, a separate support member 750 can be interposed between the upper body portion 100, the height adjustment portion 400, or the armrest 200 and the play member, so that the play member 700 can be easily adjusted to be within the sight and reach of the child, or multiple play members can be set at the same time. The support member 750 can be detachably provided on the bathing aid for infants and formed integrally with the play member 700 or detachably. As an embodiment, as shown in FIG. Figure 20 As shown, an insertion groove 170 is formed on the bottom surface of the upper body portion 100 so that the lower end of the support member 750 can be inserted and fixed, and the play member 700 is installed on the upper end of the support member 750.

[0101] In addition, the support member 750 can also be constructed in a variety of forms. In addition to the 'J' shape shown in the accompanying drawings, it can also be formed into an 'I' shape, a '∩' shape, and not only such a rod-shaped support member, but also a trapezoidal support member. In terms of its attachment method, in addition to the form of the support member being inserted into the upper main body 100, it can also be designed and deformed in a variety of forms and methods. The present invention is not limited to the shape of the support member 750.

[0102] Although not shown, the play member 700 is formed in a form of being inserted into or attached to the rod-shaped support member. When the play member 700 is separated from the support member, it can be used as a toy in daily life.

[0103] On the other hand, the bathing aid according to the present invention is relatively large compared to the small bathroom area. If it is stored at the bottom of the bathroom or bathtub, when the bathroom is used for other purposes, the space occupied by the bathing aid will cause inconvenience. Moisture will be retained in the bottom of the lower body and other parts that are in contact with the bathroom floor, which may cause mold.
