[0169] The first and second aspects of the present disclosure
[0170] The basic structural principle and technical problem solved in this case are to set seat height adjustment structures of different heights on the shoulder straps of the children's carrier and selectively connect them with the body pieces to achieve seat height adjustment and disassembly and replacement of the body pieces.
[0171] The present disclosure will be described in detail below based on the accompanying drawings, wherein: Figures 1 to 8 The structure of a child carrier 1 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure is shown.
[0172] Figure 1 The diagram schematically shows a front view of a child carrier 1 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure. The child carrier 1 comprises a shoulder strap assembly 100 (also referred to as a "harness assembly") and a carrier sheet 200 connected to the shoulder strap assembly 100. It should be noted that the "carrying sheet" herein does not mean that the component is a "sheet-like component", and it can also be referred to as a "carrying component" or a "carrying assembly" composed of multiple components. The shoulder strap assembly 100 allows the user to wear the child carrier 1 on the body. For details, please refer to Figure 1 , an adult schematically shown by the dotted line can wear the child carrier 1 to carry a child.
[0173] The shoulder strap assembly 100 includes a shoulder strap 110 and a waist belt 120. In this embodiment, the shoulder strap 110 is composed of two shoulder straps 111, and the waist belt 120 is connected to the lower end of each shoulder strap 111 at the adult waist position ( Figure 1 The shoulder strap 110 is secured to the waist using, for example, a clip (not shown). In one example, the two shoulder straps 111 of the shoulder strap 110 may be two separate components, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The shoulder strap 110 may also be a one-piece structure. For example, the two shoulder straps 111 may be connected to form the shoulder strap 110, and then the entire shoulder strap 110 (e.g., the lower end) may be fixedly connected to the waist belt 320.
[0174] The carrier 200 includes a seat support area 210 (also referred to as a "seat support") for a child to sit on, a body section 220 (also referred to as a "torso support") for supporting the child's body, and a thigh support section 230. It should be noted that the term "thigh support section" does not necessarily mean a sheet-like member; it can also be referred to as a "thigh support section." One end of the seat support area 210 can be connected to the body section 220 (e.g., one end thereof), while the other end can be connected to the waist belt 120. The thigh support sections 230 are provided on both sides of the seat support area 210 to provide support for the child's legs when they extend outward from the carrier 200. In one example, one end of the thigh support section 230 is connected to the body section 220, while the other end is connected to the waist belt 120.
[0175] For example, in Figure 1In the wearing condition shown, the carrier sheet 200 is connected to the shoulder strap assembly 100 at the seat supporting area 210 at the lower end and flipped upward, so that the upper end of the carrier sheet 200 (i.e., the end of the body sheet 220 away from the seat supporting area 210) can be fixedly connected to the upper end of the shoulder strap assembly 100 via connectors, such as snaps, magnetic buckles, buttons, etc., for example, respectively fixedly connected to the shoulder straps 111 of the shoulder strap assembly 100. In this case, a storage area for carrying a child can be formed between the shoulder strap assembly 100 and the carrier sheet 200, and the child's legs can extend from the child carrier 1 from both sides of the seat supporting area 210 through the thigh support pieces 230, making the child more comfortable.
[0176] Figure 2 A front view of a child carrier 1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown in a first load-bearing state. In order to allow the seat portion (i.e., the position accommodating the child's buttocks) of the child carrier 1 according to the present disclosure to be used at different heights, the child carrier 2 may be provided with a first seat height adjustment structure.
[0177] Specifically, in order to facilitate viewing the specific structure of the child carrier 1, Figure 2 As shown in FIG, the connecting piece for connecting the upper end of the shoulder strap assembly 100 and the upper end of the body piece 220 of the carrier piece 200 is opened, and the body piece 220 is opened. Figure 1 The carrying position or child seating position shown is turned into a drooped position, that is, downward, so that the child can be seen Figure 1 The inner side of the seat support area 210, which is obscured by the body panel 220, and the thigh support panels 230 on both sides of the seat support area 210 are visible in this state. The shoulder strap assembly 100 is equipped with a first connector 130. According to this embodiment, the first connector 130 is located on the connecting belt 112, which transversely connects the two shoulder straps 111, for example, approximately parallel to the waist belt 120. In one example, the first connector 130 can be located in the middle of the two shoulder straps 111, that is, at a distance from the lower ends of the shoulder straps 111, but the present disclosure is not limited to this. According to the present disclosure, the connecting belt 112 not only connects the two shoulder straps 111, but also serves as the first connector, making the height adjustment structure of the present disclosure more compact. Furthermore, the connecting belt 112 is a chest piece suitable for contact with the child's chest, and the first connector 130 is located on the chest piece.
[0178] According to this embodiment, the first connecting member 130 can be in the form of a zipper or other connecting member forms, such as a snap fitting or a button. The first connecting member 130 is connected to the joint member 212 provided on the upper side of the seat supporting area 210 of the supporting sheet 200, thereby forming a Figure 2According to this embodiment, the engaging member 212 is located on the edge of the seat supporting area 210 that engages with the first connecting member 130. Corresponding to the first connecting member 130, the engaging member 212 can be in the form of a zipper or other connecting member forms, such as a snap or button.
[0179] According to this embodiment, the first connector 130 can be a female zipper tape with a zipper slider, and the engaging member 212 can be a male zipper tape that matches the female zipper tape; or the first connector 130 can be a male zipper tape, and the engaging member 212 can be a female zipper tape with a zipper slider that matches the male zipper tape. Here, the first connector 130 and the engaging member 212 are joined via the zipper slider, thereby securing the carrier sheet 200 to the shoulder strap 110.
[0180] According to this embodiment, a shielding piece 131 may be provided on the outer side of the first connector 130 and above the first connector 130. One side of the shielding piece 131 is fixed to the connecting belt 112, and the other side thereof is a movable side. By flipping the movable side, the first connector 130 can be covered or exposed. The shielding piece 131 can shield the first connector 130, thereby preventing children from being scratched or uncomfortable by, for example, the zipper, and also improving the aesthetics.
[0181] According to this embodiment, a first fixing member 132 is provided on the movable edge of the shielding sheet 131, and a second fixing member 133 corresponding to the first fixing member 132 is provided on the connecting belt 112. For example, the first fixing member 132 is a Velcro surface, and the second fixing member 133 is a Velcro hook surface; or the first fixing member 132 is a Velcro hook surface, and the second fixing member 133 is a Velcro surface; or the first fixing member 132 is a female snap, and the second fixing member 133 is a male snap; or the first fixing member 132 is a male snap, and the second fixing member 133 is a female snap; or the first fixing member 132 is a first magnetic body, and the second fixing member 133 is a second magnetic body that is magnetically attracted to the first magnetic body.
[0182] Figure 3 A front view of a child carrier 1 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure is shown in a first load-bearing state. Figure 3 Shown in Figure 2 The blocking piece 131 blocks the first connecting member 130.
[0183] Figure 4 FIG1 shows a front view of the child carrier 1 in the second load-bearing state according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure. Figure 4As can be seen from the second load-bearing state shown in , a second connector 140 can be further provided below the first connector 130, at the lower end of the shoulder strap 111 of the shoulder strap 110. The second connector 140 is located at the junction of the waist belt 120 and the shoulder strap 110. According to this embodiment, the connector 212 is located at the edge of the seat support area 210 that is connected to the second connector 140. However, the present disclosure is not limited to this. The second connector 140 can also be provided above the lower end of the shoulder strap 111, as long as it is spaced a certain distance from the first connector 130. It is understood that in other examples, a third connector and / or a fourth connector can be provided between the first connector 130 and the second connector 140 to increase the height positions to which the seat can be adjusted.
[0184] According to this embodiment, the second connector 140 can be a female zipper tape with a zipper pull, and the engaging element 212 can be a male zipper tape that matches the female zipper tape; alternatively, the second connector 140 can be a male zipper tape, and the engaging element 212 can be a female zipper tape with a zipper pull that matches the male zipper tape. In this case, the second connector 140 and the engaging element 212 are joined via the zipper pull, securing the seat support area 210 of the carrier sheet 200 to the lower edge of the waist belt 120. In this case, while the seat support area 210 of the child-carrying seat remains the same, the child-carrying space is expanded, allowing the height and width of the carrier seat to be adjusted to accommodate larger children or provide them with more room to move around.
[0185] Figure 4 As can also be seen, according to this embodiment, the seat support area 210 is symmetrically provided with side connecting ends 211 on either side. These side connecting ends 211 can be connected to the corresponding thigh support piece 230, thereby forming a first opening 233 and a second opening 234 between the thigh support piece 230 and the seat support area 210. For example, the side connecting ends 211 can be inserted into and connected to the corresponding thigh support piece 230. Specifically, the side connecting ends 211 are formed by a portion of the side edge of the seat support area 210. The first opening 233 and the second opening 234 allow the thigh support piece 230, which contains a hard sheet or other elastic padding, to deform and move appropriately after a child sits in it, thereby effectively improving the child's riding comfort.
[0186] Figure 5 A front exploded view of a child carrier 1 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 5In the figure, it can be seen that the shoulder strap 110 and the waist belt 120 are combined to form the shoulder strap assembly 100. The shoulder strap 111 extends from one side of the waist belt 120 and is fixed to the joint 121 where the waist belt 120 is connected to the shoulder strap 110. The joint 121 can be fixed by any method, such as sewing, needle sewing, etc. A second connecting member 140 is provided near the joint 121, for example, on the waist belt 120. A connecting belt 112 is provided at the upper edge of the waist belt 120, and a first connecting member 130 is provided on the connecting belt 112. If necessary, a shielding piece 131 and a first fixing member 132 and a second fixing member 133 can be provided (see Figure 2 description).
[0187] According to this embodiment, the carrier plate 200 and the shoulder strap assembly 100 are separated, and a zipper-shaped connector 212 is provided at the upper edge of the seat carrier area 210. The zipper pull can be provided on the connector 212 so as to engage with the first connector 130 and the second connector 140, respectively. It is understood that the seat height adjustment structure (i.e., the first seat height adjustment structure) of an embodiment of the present disclosure can include the "first connector 130" and the "second connector 140", and / or other connectors provided between the first connector 130 and the second connector 140, so that the connector 212 can be connected to connectors at different positions, thereby adjusting the seat of the child carrier 2 to different heights.
[0188] Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the reverse side of a child carrier 1 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 6 Shown Figure 5 On the reverse side, the waist belt 120 blocks the shoulder strap 111 extending behind and makes it invisible.
[0189] Figure 7 A partial front view of the seat portion of an embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 8 A partial reverse view of the seat portion of an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 8 Shown Figure 7 The opposite of . Figure 7 In the figure, the shoulder strap 111 is arranged across the waist belt 120, and the connecting piece 212 is connected to the second connecting piece 140 on the lower side of the waist belt 120. According to this embodiment, thigh support pieces 230 are provided on both sides of the seat support area 210, and the thigh support pieces 230 are respectively provided with hard pieces or other elastic fillers. Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the first connecting end 231 of the thigh support panel 230 is connected to the side edge 240 of the carrier panel 200 and forms a first opening 233 with the seat support area 210. The second connecting end 232 is connected to the joint member 212 and / or the side edge 240 of the carrier panel 200 and forms a second opening 234 with the seat support area 210. For example, the first connecting end 231 and the second connecting end 232 are sewn to the side edge 240 of the carrier panel 200 and the joint member 212, respectively. According to this embodiment, the first connecting end 231 can be integral with the body panel 220 and sewn to the thigh support panel 230, while the second connecting end 232 is sewn to the joint member 212. According to this embodiment, the second connecting end 232 at least covers a portion of the second opening 234.
[0190] According to this embodiment, the first opening 233 is larger than the second opening 234, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. By making the first opening 233 larger than the second opening 234, the seat support area 210 can be deformed more at the first opening 233 than at the second opening 234. This allows the child's legs to better form an M-shaped leg position when the child is seated facing the user of the child carrier 1, thereby increasing the comfort of the child in the child carrier 1.
[0191] According to this embodiment, the seat support area 210 is provided with a side connecting end 211, which is fixed to the middle section of the thigh support plate 230. A first curved portion 241 is provided on the side connecting end 211, distal from the joint 212. The first curved portion 241 and the thigh support plate 230 form a first opening 233. A second curved portion 242 is provided on the side connecting end 211, proximal to the joint 212. The second curved portion 242 and the thigh support plate 230 form a second opening 234. In one example, the thigh support plate 230 can be positioned along the first and second curved portions 241, 242 to cover the first and second openings 233, 234. This ensures both support strength and an aesthetically pleasing appearance. The curvature of the first curved portion 241 is greater than that of the second curved portion 242, thereby making the structure of the seat support area 210 according to the first aspect of the present disclosure more ergonomic and comfortable for children.
[0192] Figure 9 A front view of another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure shows a child carrier 1 in a second load-bearing state. According to this embodiment, the waist belt 120 obscures the rearwardly extending shoulder straps 111, rendering them invisible there. The upper end of the seat support area 210, including the connected thigh support piece 230, is also obscured by the waist belt 120. This upper end is connected to the two shoulder straps 111 or the waist belt 120 of the shoulder belt 110.
[0193] According to this embodiment, a chest piece is provided between the two shoulder straps 111, spaced apart from the waist belt 120. This chest piece is designed to rest against the child's chest and also serves as a connecting strap connecting the two shoulder straps 111, ensuring a more stable carrying experience. In one example, a first connector 130, such as a female zipper tape with a zipper pull or a female zipper end, is provided at the lower end of the chest piece. Meanwhile, a coupling element 150, such as a male zipper tape corresponding to the female zipper tape, is provided at the upper end of the waist belt 120. In the second carrying position, the coupling element 150 and the first connector 130 are separated, separating the waist belt 120 and the seat carrying area 210 from the chest piece. This increases the seating space above the seat carrying area 210 to accommodate larger children.
[0194] Figure 10 A front view of another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure shows a child carrier 1 in a first load-bearing state. According to this embodiment, the waist belt 120 and the seat load-bearing area 210 are pulled close to the chest plate, so that the connecting member 150 on the waist belt 120 engages with the first connecting member 130 on the chest plate, for example, the female zipper tape and the male zipper tape engage with each other. This reduces the seating space above the seat load-bearing area 210 to accommodate a small child.
[0195] Figure 11 Shown Figure 9 The partial front view of the child carrier 1 in the second load-bearing state can more clearly show the first connecting member 130 on the chest piece, such as a female zipper tape with a zipper head, and the connecting member 150 on the waist belt 120 or at the sewn joint between the waist belt 120 and the shoulder strap 111, such as a male zipper tape. In addition, as Figure 11 As shown by the dotted line in the figure, the male zipper belt can also be replaced by being set on the shoulder strap 111 or on the waist belt 120 body, so as to easily achieve different height adjustments. In addition to being set on the upper side of the waist belt 120, the male zipper belt can also be set between the upper and lower sides of the waist belt 120. The zipper head of the female zipper belt at the lower end of the chest piece can be easily engaged with the male zipper belt and pulled to make the child carrier 1 in a Figure 10 According to the present disclosure, the male zipper tape may be arranged on the chest piece, while the female zipper tape may be arranged on the waist belt 120 , for example, on the upper side of the waist belt 120 .
[0196] Figure 12 A front view of a child carrier 1 according to another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure is shown in a second load-bearing state. Figure 12 yes Figure 9In the reverse front view of the child carrier 1, the shoulder strap 111 partially obscures the rear chest plate, allowing only the first connector 130, located in the middle of the lower end of the chest plate, to be seen. The coupling member 150 is separated from the first connector 130 and, in this embodiment, is partially obscured by the shoulder strap 111. In this second carrying position, the seat carrying area 210 and the body section 220 below it are positioned lower, providing a larger seating space for the child.
[0197] Figure 13 The figure shows a front view of a child carrier 1 according to another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure in a first load-bearing state. According to this embodiment, the joint 150 is connected to the first connecting member 130, and the two shoulder straps 111 are flexibly deformed between the chest piece and the waist belt 120, for example, protruding outward as shown in the figure, thereby shortening the length of the shoulder straps 111. As a result, the seat support area 210 and the body piece 220 below it are positioned higher than the child's body. Figure 12 The seat is positioned as shown, thereby providing a smaller seating space when a small child is riding.
[0198] Figure 14 An exploded view of a child carrier 1 according to another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 14 In the figure, we can see two shoulder straps 111 and a waist belt 120 that are combined into a shoulder strap assembly 100. The shoulder strap 111 extends from one side of the waist belt 120 and is fixedly joined at the connection between the waist belt 120 and the shoulder strap 111. The joining can be done by any fixing method, such as sewing, needle sewing, etc.
[0199] according to Figure 14 , a connecting member 150 is provided on the invisible rear side of the waist belt 120 (see Figure 11 Implementation), and set the first connecting member 130 on the chest piece. The first connecting member 130 and the engaging member 150 are in a separated state, so that the child carrier 1 is in a second load-bearing state.
[0200] according to Figure 14 Near the connection between the waist belt 120 and the shoulder strap 111, on the front side of the waist belt 120, the carrier sheet 200 is detachably connected to the shoulder strap 110 or waist belt 120 via connecting devices 160 and 213. Connecting devices 160 and 213 may be, for example, a male zipper tape and a matching female zipper tape with a zipper pull. The female zipper tape is located at the edge of the seat support area 210 that connects to the shoulder strap assembly 100, while the male zipper tape is located on the waist belt 120 or shoulder strap 110, for example, at the connection between the waist belt 120 and the shoulder strap 110. Connecting devices 160 and 213 may also be, for example, buttons, clips, etc. The carrier sheet 200 and the shoulder strap 110 or waist belt 120 may also be fixedly connected, for example, by sewing.
[0201] Figure 15 and Figure 16 A front view of a child carrier 1 according to another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure is shown in a second load-bearing state.
[0202] In this embodiment, the chest piece is a sandwich structure, for example, a sandwich composed of two or more layers of fabric, and the sandwich is configured as a pocket with an opening downward. An extension piece 170 is provided at the lower edge of the chest piece, which can be folded into the sandwich. The first connecting member 130, for example, a female zipper tape with a zipper head, is located on the extension piece 170. According to this embodiment, the extension piece 170 extends from Figure 15 The lower edge of the outer fabric visible in the figure, such as the connecting portion 180, extends downward. The extension piece 170 can also be extended from Figure 15 The lower edge of the inner fabric hidden by the outer fabric extends downward, or extends downward from the lower edges of both the inner fabric and the outer fabric.
[0203] Additionally, the extension piece 170 may be provided with a third fixing member 171. Figure 15 The third fixing member 171 on the rear side can be seen at the corner of the middle extension piece 170 that is lifted up. After the extension piece 170 is folded into the interlayer, it is fixed by the third fixing member 171. The third fixing member 171 is a Velcro, a snap button or a magnetic fixing member.
[0204] According to this embodiment, the third fixing member 171 can be folded into the interlayer and then cooperated with the corresponding fixing member on the inner side of the outer fabric, so that the extension piece 170 together with the first connecting member 130 can be easily stored in the interlayer pocket of the chest piece. Figure 16 The extension piece 170 shown by the dotted line is folded inward from the vicinity of the connecting portion 180 together with the first connecting piece 130 and stored in the interlayer pocket of the chest piece, so that in the second carrying state, the unused first connecting piece 130 will not affect the riding comfort of the child and will be properly stored. When the first carrying state is needed, the extension piece 170 and the first connecting piece 130 are first folded out from the interlayer, and then the first connecting piece 130 is connected to, for example, Figure 10 The joint 150 in.
[0205] According to this embodiment, the carrier sheet 200 can be disassembled from the shoulder strap assembly 100, thereby enabling convenient replacement of the carrier sheet 200 or the shoulder strap assembly 100. The beneficial technical effect of the present disclosure is that by providing seat height adjustment structures of different heights on the shoulder strap 110, such as a zipper structure, and selectively connecting the seat height adjustment structures with the carrier sheet 200 and / or the shoulder straps 110 or waist belt 120 of the shoulder strap assembly 100, the seat height can be adjusted to accommodate infants and young children of different body shapes. In addition, the carrier sheet 200 is formed into a detachable structure, which facilitates matching the carrier sheet 200 with different seasons to meet diverse needs.
[0206] In addition, the second aspect of the present disclosure further provides a child carrier 2. Figures 17 to 20 , Figure 17 A front view showing a child carrier 2 according to a first embodiment of the second aspect of the present disclosure; Figure 18 and Figure 19 Show Figure 17 A partial view of the child carrier 2 is shown, wherein the first height adjustment member 510 and the second height adjustment member 520 are in different states; and Figure 20 A partial view of a child carrier 2 of the second embodiment of the second aspect is shown. It should be noted that the child carrier 2 of the present disclosure has a use state in which a child is riding on it and a non-use state in which a child is not riding on it. Figure 17 The figure shows the non-use state of the child carrier 2. Although the "use state" is not shown in the figure, it should be possible to Figure 17 The child carrier 2 is understood to be in use.
[0207] Similar to the above embodiment, the child carrier 2 may include a shoulder strap assembly 300 and a carrier sheet 400 connected to the shoulder strap assembly 300. Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown, the shoulder strap assembly 300 allows the user to wear the child carrier 2. Specifically, the shoulder strap assembly 300 includes a shoulder strap 310 and a waist belt 320. The waist belt 320 can be secured around the user's waist. For example, the ends of the waist belt 320 can be connected to each other through a snap connection, a buckle connection, Velcro, or other means to wrap around and secure the waist of the user. One end of the shoulder strap 310 is connected to the waist belt 320, for example, by sewing, etc., but the present disclosure is not limited to this. The shoulder strap 310 can also be connected to the waist belt 320 through a detachable connection.
[0208] In one example, the shoulder strap 310 may include two shoulder straps 311, and one end (e.g., the lower end) of each shoulder strap 311 is fixedly connected to the waist belt 320. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the shoulder strap 310 may also be a one-piece structure, for example, the two shoulder straps 311 are connected to each other, and the lower end of the entire shoulder strap 310 is fixedly connected to the waist belt 320.
[0209] Combine Figure 17 and Figure 18 , the supporting piece 400 may include a seat supporting area 410, a body piece 420 and a thigh supporting piece 430. The seat supporting area 410 extends along the transverse direction D2 of the child carrier 2 to form a seat area for the child to sit on, and serves to support the child's buttocks. One end of the seat supporting area 410 is connected to the body piece 420, and the other end of the seat supporting area 410 is connected to the waist belt 320, for example, fixedly connected by sewing or the like. The body piece 420 may also be called a "torso support", which is configured to hold the child's body. When the child carrier 2 is in a position such as Figure 17In the use state shown (i.e., when being worn), the other end of the body piece 420 can be detachably connected to the upper end of the shoulder strap assembly 300 (e.g., the shoulder strap 310) by snapping, buckling, buttons, etc., so that at least a portion of the carrier piece 400 is turned upward (see FIG. Figure 17 ) to form a receiving portion for carrying children.
[0210] In one example, the seat bearing area 410 and / or the body piece 420 can be made of, for example, a fabric having properties such as waterproof and breathable, but the present disclosure is not limited to this. In other examples, the seat bearing area 410 and / or the body piece 420 can also be made of mesh (i.e., a material with a mesh pattern) to increase breathability and ductility, and be lighter in weight. Optionally, the seat bearing area 410 and the body piece 420 can be made of the same material or different materials. In addition, the seat bearing area 410 can be fixedly connected to the body piece 420, for example, by sewing, etc. Optionally or alternatively, the seat bearing area 410 can be integrally formed with the body piece 420, for example, integrally formed from the same material.
[0211] In this embodiment, thigh support panels 430 can be positioned on both sides of the seat support area 410. Specifically, one end of the thigh support panel 430 (e.g., first connection end 431) is connected to the body panel 420, and the other end of the thigh support panel 430 (e.g., second connection end 432) is connected to the waist belt 320. An opening is formed between the thigh support panel 430 and the seat support area 410 to provide space for the seat support area 410 to deform when a child is seated. For other specific structures of the support panel 400, please refer to the various embodiments of the first aspect described above and will not be elaborated here.
[0212] In this embodiment, if Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, the child carrier 2 can also be provided with a second seat height adjustment structure. The second seat height adjustment structure may include a first height adjustment member 510 and a second height adjustment member 520. In one example, the first height adjustment member 510 is provided on the seat bearing area 410, and the second height adjustment member 520 is provided on the waist belt 320, and can be engaged with and disengaged from the corresponding first height adjustment member 510, so that when the first height adjustment member 510 and the second height adjustment member 520 are engaged with each other, the size of the area of the seat bearing area 410 that bears the child (i.e., the seat area) along the longitudinal direction D1 and / or the length of the body piece 420 along the longitudinal direction D1 are shortened. In other words, when the child carrier 2 is in a position such as Figure 17 In the usage state shown, when the first height adjustment member 510 is engaged with the second height adjustment member 520 , the height of the seat supporting area 410 (ie, the seat area) is lifted upward, thereby adjusting the height of the seat of the child carrier 2 .
[0213] In another example, the first height adjustment member 510 may also be disposed at the connection between the body portion 420 and the seat support area 410, or on the body portion 420 and close to the connection. Optionally or alternatively, the second height adjustment member 520 may also be disposed on the seat support area 410 and at a different position from the first height adjustment member 510 in the longitudinal direction D1, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0214] Specifically, if Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, the first height adjustment member 510 can be a connecting buckle, such as a button. Figure 20 and Figure 21 As shown, the first height adjustment member 510 is connected to the seat support area 410 or the body 420 in the longitudinal direction D1 via two connection points. The two connection points are roughly aligned in the longitudinal direction D1, making the first height adjustment member 510 more easily obscured by the wing portion in the transverse direction D2, thereby improving the product's aesthetics. The second height adjustment member 520 can be designed as a loop, such as a fabric loop. However, the present disclosure is not limited to this. The first height adjustment member 510 and the second height adjustment member 520 can also be designed as mutually engageable hook and loop assemblies, snap assemblies, laces, etc.
[0215] In this embodiment, the first height adjustment member 510 is a button, and the second height adjustment member 520 is a cloth ring. For example, the cloth ring can be fixedly provided at or near the upper end of the belt 320. For example, one end of the cloth ring can be fixed to the belt 320 by sewing (e.g., Figure 18 As shown in the first fixed point P1). Optionally, as Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, the sewing line for fixing the cloth ring (i.e., the sewing line corresponding to the first fixing point P1) can be spaced apart from the upper edge of the waist belt 320 and / or the junction between the seat supporting area 410 and the waist belt 320 (such as the sewing line between the two), that is, they do not overlap, but the present disclosure is not limited to this.
[0216] In the second embodiment of this aspect, the second height adjustment member 520 can be connected to the waist belt 320 through at least two fixing points. Figure 20 As shown, the second height adjustment member 520 (taking the "cloth loop" as an example) can be fixed to the waist belt 320 through a first fixing point P1 and a second fixing point P2, wherein the first fixing point P1 is similar to that shown in the aforementioned embodiment, and the second fixing point P2 can be set in the middle of the cloth loop (for example, corresponding to another sewing line spaced apart from the first fixing point P1), so that the second height adjustment member 520 can be more stably and firmly fixed on the waist belt 320.
[0217] By providing a second seat height adjustment structure, that is, through the cooperation of the first height adjustment member 510 and the second height adjustment member 520, the seat height of the child carrier 2 can be further adjusted, especially when the child carrier 2 is being worn. Specifically, the second height adjustment member 520 is provided on the waist belt 320, for example, near the upper end of the waist belt 320. This can make the overall structure of the second seat height adjustment structure more stable, thereby providing more secure support. It also provides more obvious identification (it is easier for users to understand that the second height adjustment member 520 is a structure for height adjustment), thereby preventing misuse.
[0218] Furthermore, when the child carrier 2 is in use and a child is seated therein (i.e., when the child carrier 2 is in use), regardless of whether the first height adjustment member 510 and the second height adjustment member 520 are engaged, the second height adjustment member 520 is always obscured by the child's buttocks (i.e., the seat support area 410) when viewed from the front-to-back direction of the user, thereby enhancing the appearance of the child carrier 2. Furthermore, the position of the first height adjustment member 510 in the longitudinal direction D1 can also be configured such that regardless of whether the first height adjustment member 510 and the second height adjustment member 520 are engaged, the first height adjustment member 510 is always obscured by the child's buttocks when viewed from the front-to-back direction of the user.
[0219] In one example, the thigh support plate 430 may include a wing portion 4302. Figures 17 to 19 The wing portion 4302 may be configured to have at least a portion extending inward from the connection between the seat support area 410 and the thigh support piece 430, thereby at least partially obscuring the first height adjustment member 510 in the transverse direction D2, whether it is engaged with the second height adjustment member 520 or not, to maintain aesthetics. Optionally, the thigh support piece 430 is connected to the waist belt 320 and the body piece 420 in the longitudinal direction D1 of the child carrier 2 via the wing portion 4302, that is, one end of the wing portion 4302 in the longitudinal direction D1 (i.e., the first connection end 431) is connected to the body piece 420, and the other end of the wing portion 4302 in the longitudinal direction D1 (i.e., the second connection end 432) is connected to the waist belt 320.
[0220] Furthermore, if Figure 18 As shown, the thigh support piece 430 may further include a thigh support body portion 4301 , which may extend laterally (ie, in direction D2 ) outward from the wing portion 4302 to support the legs of a child riding in the child carrier 2 .
[0221] It should be noted that, although there is no specific description, it should be understood that the various embodiments of the second aspect of the present disclosure can also be combined with or used alternatively with the structures of the various embodiments of the aforementioned first aspect, such as the first seat height adjustment structure composed of the first connecting member 130 and the second connecting member 140, etc., which will not be elaborated here.
[0222] The structure of the carrier sheet 400 will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments. Figure 21 and Figure 22 , respectively showing the specific structures of the carrier sheet 400 according to two embodiments of the second aspect of the present disclosure.
[0223] like Figure 21 As shown, similar to the previous embodiment, the carrier piece 400 of this embodiment may include a seat support area 410, a body piece 420, and a thigh support piece 430. The seat support area 410 forms the seat region for a child to sit on. One end of the seat support area 410 is connected to the body piece 420, and the other end is connected to the waist belt 320. The thigh support pieces 430 are disposed on both sides of the seat support area 410. One end (i.e., the first connection end) of the thigh support piece 430 is connected to the body piece 420 and / or the seat support area 410 (e.g., a side thereof), and the other end (i.e., the second connection end) is connected to the waist belt 320. Specifically, a portion of the thigh support piece 430 is connected to the seat support area 410 and / or the body piece 420, and forms a first opening 433 and a second opening 434 with the seat support area 410, thereby providing space for the seat support area 410 to deform when a child is seated in the child carrier 2.
[0224] Specifically, in this embodiment, the seat support area 410 may include a hip support body portion 411 extending along the transverse direction D2 of the child carrier 2. The hip support body portion 411 extends from the waist belt 320 to the body portion 420 along the longitudinal direction D1, that is, one end of the hip support body portion 411 is connected to the waist belt 320, and the other end is connected to the body portion 420. Optionally, the hip support body portion 411 is substantially disposed in the center of the seat support area 410 along the transverse direction D2. In one example, as shown in FIG. Figure 21As shown, the lateral width of the hip support body portion 411 at the end near the waist belt 320 is smaller than the lateral width of the hip support body portion 411 at the end near the body portion 420. That is, the hip support body portion 411 can be narrower at the end near the waist belt 320, while it can be wider at the end near the body portion 430. When a child sits facing the user in the child carrier's receiving portion, the child's legs need to be spread wider, forming a distinct M-leg shape. This design makes the portion of the hip support body portion 411 on which the child's buttocks rest (i.e., the seating portion) wider, allowing for greater deformation margin. Older children (e.g., children over 6 months old) typically sit facing away from the user in the child carrier, and their legs tend to extend naturally. Therefore, the seating portion of the hip support body portion 411 is narrower, preventing the child's buttocks from sinking too much when the child sits facing away from the user.
[0225] Furthermore, the seat supporting area 410 may further include a buttocks supporting connection portion 412. The buttocks supporting body portion 411 and the buttocks supporting connection portion 412 are connected to each other, for example, by Figure 21 The third stitch line L13 and / or the fourth stitch line L14 are shown. One end of the hip support connection portion 412 is connected to the waist belt 320, and the other end extends along at least a portion of the hip support body portion 411 in the longitudinal direction D1, and optionally extends to the longitudinal middle of the hip support body portion 411. At least a portion of the thigh support panel 430 located between the two connection ends is connected to the seat support area 410 via the hip support connection portion 412.
[0226] In one example, the hip support connection portion 412 can be configured as a reinforcement member (also referred to as a "first reinforcement member") provided on the hip support body portion 411 to increase the material strength on both sides of the seat support area 410 and / or to strengthen the connection strength between the seat support area 410 and the thigh support plate 430. The hip support connection portion 412 can be stronger than the hip support body portion 411. Alternatively, the hip support connection portion 412 can be thicker than the hip support body portion 411. Alternatively or alternatively, the hip support connection portion 412 can be made of a material that is stronger than the hip support body portion 411.
[0227] Furthermore, the elasticity of the hip support body 411 can be greater than that of the hip support connection 412. That is, the area of the seat support area 410 not provided with the reinforcement (i.e., the hip support connection 412) can have a greater ductility effect, allowing the seat support area 410 near the body 420 to have a larger expandable width, which helps to better form an M-leg effect when the child sits facing the user. In an optional example, the hip support body 411 and the hip support connection 412 can be made of the same material but have different thicknesses. However, the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the hip support body 411 and the hip support connection 412 can also be made of different materials.
[0228] In a specific example, Figure 21 As shown, the outer area of the seat supporting area 410 corresponding to the hip support connecting portion 412 (wherein "outer" refers to the side of the child carrier 2 facing away from its receiving portion when worn) is provided with a first height adjustment member 510, and the waist belt 320 is correspondingly provided with a second height adjustment member ( Figure 21 Not shown, please refer to Figure 18 and Figure 19 Similar to the aforementioned embodiment, the first height adjustment member 510 and the second height adjustment member 520 can be engaged with each other to shorten the length of the seat bearing area 410 and / or the body piece 420 in the longitudinal direction D1, thereby adjusting the height of the harness seat.
[0229] Specifically, if Figure 21 As shown, at least a portion of the thigh support panel 430 located between its two connection ends (i.e., the first connection end and the second connection end) is connected to the seat support area 410 via the hip support connection portion 412. In one example, the thigh support panel 430 includes a thigh support body portion 4301 and a wing portion 4302. The thigh support body portion 4301 is configured to support a child's legs. The wing portion 4302 can be configured to have at least a portion extending inwardly in the transverse direction D2 from the connection between the seat support area 410 and the thigh support panel 430. One end of the wing portion 4302 in the longitudinal direction D1 is connected to the body portion 420, and the other end in the longitudinal direction D1 is connected to the waist belt 320. Optionally, the thigh support body portion 4301 is located outboard of the wing portion 4302 in the transverse direction D2 and extends outwardly.
[0230] Furthermore, if Figure 21As shown, the thigh support panel 430 may be provided with a first stitch line L11, which defines the thigh support panel 430 into the thigh support body portion 4301 and the wing portion 4302. Optionally, in the longitudinal direction D1, the first stitch line L11 is a curve that curves laterally inwardly in the middle portion. Optionally, a third stitch line L13 (also referred to as the hemming line of the hip support connection portion 412) connecting the hip support body portion 411 and the hip support connection portion 412 may at least partially overlap with the first stitch line L11.
[0231] In addition, the thigh support plate 430 may also be provided with a second sewing line L12, which at least partially extends parallel to the first sewing line L11 and is located laterally inside or laterally outside the first sewing line L11. Figure 21 As shown, the first stitching line L11 and the second stitching line L12 define a buffer connection area 4303. In the transverse direction D2, the buffer connection area is located between the wing portion 4302 and the thigh support body portion 4301. Optionally, the seat support area 410 (specifically, its hip support connection portion 412) can be connected to the thigh support piece 430 via a portion of the second stitching line L12.
[0232] By providing two parallel stitching lines, namely, a first stitching line L11 and a second stitching line L12, the child carrier's manufacturing stability is improved, and the strength of the thigh support piece 430 itself is enhanced, particularly the connection strength between the thigh support body 4301 and the wing portion 4302. Furthermore, the buffer connection area 4303 forms a buffer between the wing portion 4302, which has different thicknesses, and the thigh support body 4301. This allows the thigh support body 4301 to provide better upward support when subjected to downward pressure, thus ensuring that the thigh support piece 430 provides more stable support for the child's legs.
[0233] In one example, the thickness of the thigh support body portion 4301 can be greater than the thickness of the buffer connection area, and the thickness of the buffer connection area can be greater than the thickness of the wing portion 4302. Additionally or alternatively, the thickness of the wing portion 4302 can be greater than the thickness of the seat bearing area 410.
[0234] refer to Figure 22 , showing a partial view of a child carrier according to yet another embodiment.
[0235] Similar to the previous embodiment, the support panel 400 of this embodiment may include a seat support area 410, a body panel 420, and a thigh support panel 430. The seat support area 410 may include a hip support body portion 411 and a hip support connection portion 412. The hip support body portion 411 and the hip support connection portion 412 may be divided by a sixth stitching line L26, similar to the fourth stitching line L14 in the previous embodiment. The thigh support panel 430 is provided on both sides of the seat support area 410 and connected between the waist belt 320 and the body panel 420. A first stitching line L21 (similar to the first stitching line L11 in the previous embodiment) is provided on the thigh support panel 430, dividing it into a thigh support body portion 4301 and a wing portion 4302.
[0236] Alternatively, as Figure 22 As shown, a second stitching line L22 is also provided on the thigh support plate 430. The hip support connection portion 412 of the seat support area 410 is connected to the thigh support plate 430, specifically to the thigh support body portion 4301 and / or the wing portion 4302, for example, via the second stitching line L22. In this embodiment, the first stitching line L21 and the second stitching line L22 overlap. However, the present disclosure is not limited to this. The first stitching line L21 and the second stitching line L22 may not overlap. For example, the second stitching line L22 may be located inward of the first stitching line L21. In this embodiment, the longitudinal ends of the second stitching line L22 do not extend to the edges of the hip support connection portion 412. In other embodiments, the longitudinal ends of the second stitching line L22 may extend to the edges of the hip support connection portion 412.
[0237] like Figure 22 As shown, the third stitching line L23 provided on the seat bearing area 410 can be configured as an edge line of the hip support connecting portion 412 , and optionally, the third stitching line L23 can also strengthen the connection between the hip support connecting portion 412 and the thigh support piece 430 .
[0238] In this embodiment, the longitudinal middle portion of the hip support connection portion 412 can protrude laterally outward to better form a pocket in the seat support area 410, creating a three-dimensional pocket and allowing the child's thighs to more easily form an M-leg configuration when seated. However, the present disclosure is not limited to this. The hip support body 411 may also not be pocket-shaped, but it is required that the hip support body 411 has sufficient elasticity.
[0239] In one example, the hip support body 411 may be narrower at the end near the waist belt 320, while wider at the end near the body 430. This is because when a child sits in the child carrier's accommodating portion facing the user, the child's legs need to be spread wider, forming a distinct M-leg shape. This design allows the portion of the hip support body 411 on which the child's buttocks sit (i.e., the seating portion) to be wider, resulting in a larger margin for deformation. Older children (e.g., children over 6 months old) usually sit in the child carrier with their backs to the user, and their legs tend to extend naturally. Therefore, the seating portion of the hip support body 411 is narrower, preventing the child's buttocks from sinking too much when the child sits with their back to the user.
[0240] Optionally, a fourth stitching line L24 may be provided on the hip support connection portion 412 for additionally fixing the hip support connection portion 412 to the hip support body portion 411, thereby preventing the hip support connection portion 412 from being excessively wrinkled when not in use, and / or auxiliary connecting the hip support connection portion 412 and the wing portion 4302 to make the connection between the seat bearing area 410 and the thigh support piece 430 more stable.
[0241] Optionally or alternatively, the front side of the buttocks support body portion 411 (with Figure 22 The second reinforcement member 4111 can also be provided on the opposite side of the hip support body 411, and the second reinforcement member can be provided at a position close to the waist belt 320, for example, through the fifth sewing line L15 (see FIG. Figure 21 )、L25(see Figure 22 ) is fixedly connected to increase the overall durability of the child carrier 2.
[0242] In this embodiment, the thigh support sheet 430 is thicker than the seat support area 410. Optionally, the thigh support body 4301 is thicker than the wing portion 4302, for example by filling the thigh support body 4301 with more foam. Optionally, the wing portion 4302 is thicker than the hip support connection portion 412. Alternatively or alternatively, the hip support connection portion 412 can be thicker than the hip support body 411. By gradually varying the thickness of each region, a child's legs can be more effectively positioned in an M-shaped position while seated.
[0243] Furthermore, the strength of the hip support connection portion 412 is greater than the strength of the hip support body portion 411 , and / or the elasticity of the hip support body portion 411 is greater than the elasticity of the hip support connection portion 412 , but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0244] The third aspect of the present disclosure
[0245] The third aspect of the present disclosure provides an infant carrier. Figures 23 to 25As shown, the infant carrier includes a waist belt A1, a shoulder belt A2, and an infant support piece A3 connected to the waist belt A1 and the shoulder belt A2 respectively. The shoulder belt A2 is arranged roughly along the depth direction of the infant support piece A3. One side of the infant support piece A3 is connected to the waist belt A1, and the side of the infant support piece A3 away from the waist belt A1 is detachably or non-detachably connected to the shoulder belt A2. That is, the upper side of the infant support piece A3 is connected to the shoulder belt A2, and the lower side of the infant support piece A3 is connected to the waist belt A1. In this embodiment, the upper side of the infant support piece A3 is detachably connected to the shoulder belt A2 via a connecting component (such as a buckle). In other embodiments, the infant support piece A3 may be fixedly connected to the shoulder belt A2. This application does not limit the specific connection method between the infant support piece A3 and the shoulder belt A2. Reference Figures 23 to 25 The infant support A3 comprises a hip support portion A31 and a torso support portion A32, which are interconnected. In this embodiment, the infant support A3 is integrally formed. The hip support portion A31 is connected to the waist belt A1 on the side away from the torso support portion A32, while the torso support portion A32 is connected to the shoulder belt A2 on the side away from the hip support portion A31.
[0246] It is worth noting that the depth direction of the infant support A3 described in this article specifically refers to the direction from the side where the infant support A3 is connected to the waist belt A1 to the side where the infant support A3 is connected to the shoulder strap A2, that is, the direction from the lower side to the upper side or the upper side to the lower side of the infant support A3.
[0247] Furthermore, if Figures 23 to 25 As shown, the infant carrier also includes a connector A4 connected to the waist belt A1 and the shoulder straps A2. A storage space for accommodating infants is formed between the connector A4 and the infant support member A3. The connector A4 includes a first connector A41 and a second connector A42, and the first connector A41 is a substantially rectangular piece of cloth. There are two first connectors A41, and the two first connectors A41 are spaced apart and connected to the corresponding shoulder straps A2. The two ends of the second connector A42 are respectively connected to the two first connectors A41. In one embodiment, the connector A4 can also be an integrated piece of cloth, with one side of the connector A4 connected to the waist belt A1 and the other side of the connector A4 connected to the shoulder straps A2. In another embodiment, the infant carrier may also not include the connector A4, but the shoulder straps A2 extend directly to the waist belt A1 and are connected to the waist belt A1.
[0248] Reference Figures 23 to 25The side of the torso support portion A32 away from the hip support portion A31, i.e., the side of the infant support member A3 away from the waist belt A1, is detachably connected to the shoulder belt A2, thereby facilitating the infant's entry and exit from the storage space. During use, the waist belt A1 is first secured to the caregiver's waist, and the shoulder belts A2 are suspended from the caregiver's shoulders. The connector A4 then rests against the caregiver's torso. The infant can then be lifted and the side of the infant support member A3 away from the waist belt A1 is connected to the shoulder belt A2, allowing the infant to sit within the storage space. In this embodiment of the infant carrier, the storage space formed by the connector A4 and the infant support member A3 provides excellent protection for the infant.
[0249] Furthermore, if Figure 25 、 Figure 26 、 Figure 28 and Figure 29 As shown, the infant carrier also includes leg supports A51. In this embodiment, there are two leg supports A51, one located on either side of the hip support portion A31 in the transverse direction, i.e., on the left and right sides of the hip support portion A31. The hip support portion A31 and the leg supports A51 form a seat area A101 for supporting an infant. One end of the leg support A51 is connected to one end of the hip support portion A31, forming a first fixed end A511 between the leg support A51 and the hip support portion A31. The other end of the leg support A51 is connected to the other end of the hip support portion A31, forming a second fixed end A512 between the leg support A51 and the hip support portion A31. The natural depth L1 of the leg support A51 between the first and second fixed ends A511 and A512 is smaller than the natural depth L2 of the hip support A31 between the first and second fixed ends A511 and A512, enabling the hip support A31 to switch between an extended and retracted position in the depth direction of the infant support A3. When the hip support A31 is in the extended position, the seat area A101 has a larger depth dimension; when the hip support A31 is in the retracted position, the seat area A101 has a smaller depth dimension. In actual use, when an infant is seated in the seat area A101, the hip support A31 is in the extended position due to the infant's own weight. When the infant is not seated in the seat area A101, the hip support A31 is in a naturally retracted position.
[0250] It is worth noting that the width of the infant support A3 described herein specifically refers to the direction from the left side to the right side or from the right side to the left side of the infant support A3, while the depth of the infant support A3 described herein specifically refers to the direction from the side where the infant support A3 is connected to the waist belt A1 to the side where the infant support A3 is connected to the shoulder strap A2, that is, the direction from the bottom side to the top side or from the top side to the bottom side of the infant support A3. The natural depth dimension of the leg support A51 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 described herein refers to the actual length of the fabric forming the leg support A51 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 in the unattached state. The natural depth dimension of the hip support A31 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 described herein refers to the actual length of the fabric forming the hip support A31 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 in the unattached state.
[0251] In this embodiment, Figures 25 to 27As shown, the buttocks support portion A31 is formed of a sheet of fabric. The buttocks support portion A31 is an axially symmetrical figure as a whole, and its axis of symmetry is the longitudinal centerline extending along the depth direction of the infant support member A3. The buttocks support portion A31 has a first edge A311 on both sides of the infant support member A3 in the transverse width direction, that is, the left and right sides of the buttocks support portion A31 have a first edge A311. Taking the first edge A311 on one side as an example, the first edge A311 includes an arc segment A3111 and a recessed segment A3112 connected to each other. The arc segment A3111 extends from the first fixed end A511 to the second fixed end A512, gradually deviating from the longitudinal centerline of the buttocks support portion A31. The recessed segment A3112 is connected to the arc segment A3111 and is recessed in a direction close to the longitudinal centerline of the buttocks support portion A31. During the manufacturing process, the hip support portion A31 can be formed by first cutting the concave sections A3112 on either side of a roughly rectangular sheet of fabric, then folding the curved sections A3111 on either side, and finally sewing the fabric to form the shape with the aforementioned first edge A311. In this embodiment, the curved sections A3111 extend outward, forming the widest support dimension away from the first fixed end A511, which facilitates the widest support area for the baby's hips when sitting. Simultaneously, the curved sections A3111 form the smallest support dimension near the first fixed end A511, facilitating support for the leg support member A51 and its secure sewing connection to the waist belt A1. The recessed section A3112 is close to the second fixed end A512. Since the longitudinal lengths of the leg support A51 and the hip support part A31 are different, the recessed section A3112 is provided to facilitate the fixed connection between the leg support A51 and the hip support part A31 at the recessed section A3112 through the second fixed end A512. It is also convenient to provide the second opening A103 at the recessed section A3112, which not only ensures the convenience of production, but also makes the overall appearance beautiful.
[0252] Furthermore, the hip support portion A31 is provided with a first connection portion A312 at both sides of the infant support member A3 in the transverse direction near the first edge A311. The first connection portion A312 is a linear connection portion located between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512.
[0253] In this embodiment, the two leg support members A51 are both roughly long strips of fabric structure, and the shape and structure of the two leg support members A51 are basically the same. Figure 25 and Figure 26As shown, the leg support part A51 has a first support part A513 and a second support part A514. The thickness of the first support part A513 is greater than the thickness of the second support part A514, and the thickness of the first support part A513 is greater than the thickness of the infant support part A3. In this embodiment, the thickness of the first support part A513 can be greater than the thickness of the second support part A514, and the thickness of the second support part A514 can be greater than the thickness of the infant support part A3. In this way, the thigh support part can provide stronger support for the thigh of the infant. In this embodiment, the first support part A513 can be a multi-layer structure, for example, a double layer of fabric filled with hard fillers such as cardboard or elastic fillers such as cotton, so that the first support part A513 has a larger thickness. As Figure 28 As shown, the second support portion A514 covers the back of the hip support portion A31 when the infant carrier is in use to form a wing portion for auxiliary support.
[0254] Specifically, if Figure 26 and Figure 28 As shown, the leg support member A51 includes an outer edge A515 distal from the hip support portion A31 and an inner edge A516 proximal to the hip support portion A31. Both the outer edge A515 and the inner edge A516 are linear edges. In this embodiment, since one end of the leg support member A51 is connected to the waist belt A1, the outer edge A515 of the leg support member A51 can be designed as a linear edge, which is more aesthetically pleasing and easier to manufacture. The leg support member A51 also includes a dividing edge A517 located between the outer edge A515 and the inner edge A516. The portion of the leg support member A51 located between the outer edge A515 and the dividing edge A517 forms a first support portion A513, while the portion of the leg support member A51 located between the inner edge A516 and the dividing edge A517 forms a second support portion A514. In this embodiment, the leg support A51 is a long strip of fabric structure made of double-layer fabric, and has an arc-shaped dividing edge A517 roughly in the middle, which is arranged roughly along the longitudinal direction of the infant support A3. The dividing edge A517 can be a sewing line, thereby dividing the leg support A51 into a first support part A513 and a second support part A514. Among them, the part close to the outer edge A515 is the first support part A513, which is filled with the hard filler or soft filler as described above and has a larger thickness, while the part close to the outer edge A515 is the second support part A514, which has no filler and is only a double-layer fabric structure, so the thickness is smaller. Figure 25 and Figure 26 As shown, due to the arc shape of the dividing edge A517, the first fixed end A511 is formed by one side of the first support portion A513 and one side of the second support portion A514, while the second fixed end A512 is formed only by one side of the second support portion A514.
[0255] Furthermore, if Figure 26 and Figure 28 As shown, the leg support A51 is further provided with a second connection portion A518 that can be connected to the first connection portion A312. It can be understood that the second connection portion A518 is also a linear connection portion located between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512. In this embodiment, the first connection portion A312 and the second connection portion A518 are sewn together. Of course, in other embodiments, the first connection portion A312 and the second connection portion A518 can also be connected by bonding or other methods. In this embodiment, the second connection portion A518 is approximately located in the middle of the leg support A51 and is arranged approximately along the dividing edge A517, that is, the second connection portion A518 is arranged offset from the outer edge A515 and also offset from the inner edge A516.
[0256] Furthermore, the first connection portion A312 and the second connection portion A518 can be arranged in a variety of ways to achieve different matching conditions between the leg support A51 and the hip support portion A31.
[0257] For example, in the first embodiment, Figures 28 to 30 As shown, the first connection part A312 and the second connection part A518 are both connected to the second fixed end A512 and spaced apart from the first fixed end A511, and the portion of the leg support A51 located between the first fixed end A511 and the second connection part A518 and the portion of the infant support A3 located between the first fixed end A511 and the first connection part A312 form a first opening A102, that is, the first opening A102 is formed between the portion of the leg support A51 close to the waist belt A1 and the portion of the hip support part A31 close to the waist belt A1.
[0258] In the second embodiment, if Figure 31 and Figure 32 As shown, the first connecting portion A312 and the second connecting portion A518 are located between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 and are spaced apart from both the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512. A first opening A102 is formed between the portion of the leg support A51 between the first fixed end A511 and the second connecting portion A518 and the portion of the hip support A31 between the first fixed end A511 and the first connecting portion A312. A second opening A103 is formed between the portion of the leg support A51 between the second fixed end A512 and the second connecting portion A518 and the portion of the hip support A31 between the second fixed end A512 and the first connecting portion A312. Specifically, the first opening A102 is formed between the portion of the leg support A51 near the waist belt A1 and the portion of the hip support A31 near the waist belt A1, while the second opening A103 is formed between the portion of the leg support A51 away from the waist belt A1 and the corresponding portion of the hip support A31 away from the waist belt A1.
[0259] In a third embodiment, Figure 33 As shown, the first connection part A312 and the second connection part A518 are both connected to the first fixed end A511 and spaced apart from the second fixed end A512, and the portion of the leg support A51 located between the second fixed end A512 and the second connection part A518 and the portion of the hip support part A31 located between the second fixed end A512 and the first connection part A312 form a second opening A103, that is, the second opening A103 is formed between the portion of the leg support part A51 away from the waist belt A1 and the corresponding portion of the hip support part A31 away from the waist belt A1.
[0260] In the fourth embodiment, Figure 34 As shown, the first connection part A312 and the second connection part A518 both extend continuously from the first fixed end A511 to the second fixed end A512, that is, the leg support part A51 and the hip support part A31 are completely sewn together, and no opening is formed between the leg support part A51 and the hip support part A31.
[0261] In the above embodiment, if the first opening A102 or the second opening A103 is formed between the leg supporting member A51 and the hip supporting portion A31, it is beneficial to the flexible connection and movable adjustment between the leg supporting member A51 and the first connecting portion A312.
[0262] Furthermore, if Figure 27 As shown, both sides of the hip support portion A31 in the transverse direction have first edges A311. The distance W1 between the first fixed ends A511 of the two leg supports A51 located on either side of the hip support portion A31 in the transverse direction is less than the maximum transverse width W2 between the two first edges A311 of the hip support portion A31. This allows an infant's buttocks to be seated in the widest support area when riding. Especially when the infant is facing the user, the infant's thighs can be supported in the narrower area near the waistband, forming an ergonomically correct M-shaped leg.
[0263] It is worth noting that the maximum transverse width between the two first edges A311 of the hip support portion A31 described herein refers to the size of the fabric forming the hip support portion A31 between the two first edges A311 in a connected state.
[0264] Furthermore, if Figure 27As shown, the hip support portion A31 has at least one linear folding portion A313, which extends generally along the depth direction of the infant support member A3. Specifically, the linear folding portion A313 is formed by folding and sewing the hip support portion A31 along its width. In this embodiment, the hip support portion A31 has two linear folding portions A313 spaced apart, both located near the waistband A1. The provision of the linear folding portions A313 also helps the hip support portion A31 form a concave pocket-like structure.
[0265] Further, in at least one position, such as Figures 27 to 29 As shown, the transverse width between the two second connection portions A518 of the two leg supports A51 is less than the natural transverse width between the two first connection portions A312 of the hip support A31. The natural transverse width between the two first connection portions A312 of the hip support A31, as described herein, refers to the actual length of the fabric forming the hip support A31 between the two first edges A311 when unattached. This allows the hip support A31 to be in a collapsed state at least in one location along the transverse width of the infant support A3. This allows the hip support A31 to switch between a collapsed state and an expanded state along the transverse width of the infant support A3.
[0266] Specifically, if Figure 28 As shown, when the infant carrier is not in use, the hip support portion A31 is in a retracted state in the transverse direction of the infant support member A3. Figure 29As shown, when the infant carrier is in use, that is, when the infant is sitting in the infant carrier, the hip support portion A31 is in an expanded state in the transverse direction of the infant support member A3, and the expansion degree of the hip support portion A31 can be adaptively adjusted according to the different body shapes of the infant. Specifically, when a larger infant sits in the infant carrier, the infant can press down the seat area A101 with his or her own greater weight, so that the hip support part A31 will be stretched downward and be in an expanded state. The seat area A101 is larger in the longitudinal direction. At the same time, due to the tensile deformation of the hip support part A31, the gravity of the infant generates a greater force F on the connection parts between the two sides of the hip support part A31 and its corresponding two leg support parts A51, so that the hip support part A31 is stretched to a greater extent in the horizontal width direction of the infant support part A3 and has a greater degree of expansion. The two leg support parts A51 expand in the direction away from each other, and at the same time, the hip support part A31 is pressed downward to form support, so that the seat area A101 is enlarged, which is suitable for larger infants to sit on, and the infant's legs can form ergonomic M-shaped legs. When a smaller infant sits in the infant carrier, the hip support part A31 will not be stretched downward too much due to the smaller gravity and smaller size of the infant's hips. Therefore, the hip support part A31 is stretched to a smaller extent in the lateral width direction of the infant support part A3 and has a smaller degree of expansion. The seat area A101 is smaller in the longitudinal direction. At the same time, the force F exerted by the infant's gravity on the two sides of the hip support part A31 and the connection parts between the two corresponding leg support parts A51 is smaller, so that the hip support part A31 has a smaller degree of expansion in the lateral width direction of the infant support part A3. The two leg support parts A51 are relatively close, so that the seat area A101 is reduced, which is suitable for smaller infants to sit on, so that the infant's legs can form ergonomic M-shaped legs.
[0267] Of course, in other embodiments, the first connection portion A312 and the second connection portion A518 may not be directly connected. Figure 36 As shown, the hip support portion A31 and the leg support portion A51 are elastically connected. Specifically, an elastic member A52 can be connected between the hip support portion A31 and the leg support portion A51, and the elastic member A52 can be switched between an extended state and a non-extended state. In this embodiment, the elastic member A52 is a one-piece elastic member. In other embodiments, the elastic member A52 can also be at least one strip of elastic band. The two sides or ends of the elastic member A52 in the horizontal width direction of the infant support portion A3 are respectively connected to the first connection portion A312 and the second connection portion A518, which can provide sufficient elastic support for the seat area A101.
[0268] Thus, when the infant carrier is not in use, the elastic member A52 is in a non-extended state. When the infant carrier is in use, i.e., when an infant is seated in the carrier, the elastic member A52 is in an extended state, and the degree of extension of the elastic member A52 can be adaptively adjusted according to the infant's body size. When the infant carrier is carrying a larger infant, the elastic member A52 will be extended to a greater extent due to the infant's greater weight and larger hip size. This will increase the lateral width of the seat area A101, thereby accommodating larger infants and allowing the infant's legs to form an ergonomic "M" shape. When the infant carrier is carrying a smaller infant, due to the infant's less weight and smaller hip size, the elastic member A52 will be extended to a lesser extent due to the infant's less weight and smaller hip size. This will accommodate the smaller infant and allow the infant's legs to form an ergonomic "M" shape.
[0269] Another aspect of the present disclosure provides an infant carrier. Similar to the infant carriers in the aforementioned embodiments, this carrier comprises a leg support A51, a waist belt A1, a shoulder belt A2, and an infant support A3 connected to the waist belt A1 and the shoulder belt A2, respectively. The portion of the infant support A3 adjacent to the waist belt A1 also forms a hip support A31. Two leg supports A51 are disposed on either side of the hip support A31 in the transverse direction. One end of the leg support A51 and one end of the hip support A31 are connected to the waist belt A1, forming a first fixed end A511 between the leg support A51 and the hip support A31. The other end of the leg support A51 is connected to the other end of the hip support A31, forming a second fixed end A512 between the leg support A51 and the hip support A31. The hip support portion A31 has first edges A311 on both sides of its width. The distance W1 between the first fixed ends A511 of the two leg supports A51 located on either side of the hip support portion A31 is less than the maximum width W2 between the two first edges A311. This ensures that the hip support portion A31 forms a concave, pocket-like shape when an infant is seated. Specifically, when an infant is seated in the infant carrier, the infant's own weight presses down on the seat area A101, causing the two leg supports A51 located on either side of the hip support portion A31 to move away from each other. Simultaneously, the hip support portion A31 is depressed and supported, and the seat area A101 is enlarged, allowing the infant to form an ergonomically correct M-shaped leg position.
[0270] A third aspect of the present disclosure also provides an infant carrier. Similar to the infant carriers in the aforementioned embodiments, this carrier comprises a leg support A51, a waist belt A1, a shoulder strap A2, and an infant support A3 connected to each of the waist belt A1 and the shoulder strap A2. One end of the leg support A51 and one end of the hip support A31 are connected to the waist belt A1, forming a first fixed end A511 between the leg support A51 and the hip support A31. The other end of the leg support A51 is connected to the other end of the hip support A31, forming a second fixed end A512 between the leg support A51 and the hip support A31. At at least one location, the lateral width between the two second connecting portions A518 of the two leg supports A51 is smaller than the natural lateral width between the two first connecting portions A312 of the hip support A31. This allows the hip support A31 to switch between a collapsed state and an expanded state in the lateral width direction of the infant support A3.
[0271] Specifically, when the infant carrier is not in use, the hip support portion A31 is retracted in the transverse width of the infant support member A3. When the infant carrier is in use, i.e., when an infant is seated in the infant carrier, the hip support portion A31 is extended in the transverse width of the infant support member A3. The extent of the hip support portion A31 is adaptively adjusted to the infant's body shape. Specifically, when a larger infant sits in the infant carrier, the infant can press down the seat area A101 with his or her own greater weight, so that the hip support part A31 will be stretched downward and be in an expanded state. The seat area A101 is larger in the longitudinal direction. At the same time, due to the tensile deformation of the hip support part A31, the gravity of the infant generates a greater force F on the connection parts between the two sides of the hip support part A31 and its corresponding two leg support parts A51, so that the hip support part A31 is stretched to a greater extent in the horizontal width direction of the infant support part A3 and has a greater degree of expansion. The two leg support parts A51 expand in the direction away from each other, and at the same time, the hip support part A31 is pressed downward to form support, so that the seat area A101 is enlarged, which is suitable for larger infants to sit on, and the infant's legs can form ergonomic M-shaped legs. When a smaller infant sits in the infant carrier, the hip support part A31 will not be stretched downward too much due to the smaller gravity and smaller hip size of the infant. Therefore, the hip support part A31 is stretched to a smaller extent in the lateral width direction of the infant support part A3 and has a smaller degree of expansion. The seat area A101 is smaller in the longitudinal direction. At the same time, the force F exerted by the infant's gravity on the two sides of the hip support part A31 and the connection parts between the two corresponding leg support parts A51 is smaller, so that the hip support part A31 has a smaller degree of expansion in the lateral width direction of the infant support part A3. The two leg support parts A51 are relatively close, so that the seat area A101 is reduced, which is suitable for smaller infants to sit on, so that the infant's legs can form ergonomic M-shaped legs.
[0272] The above-mentioned infant carrier has at least the following technical effects:
[0273] In the above-mentioned infant carrier, the waist belt A1 and shoulder belt A2 are respectively connected to opposite sides of the infant support A3 in the longitudinal direction. The portion of the infant support A3 adjacent to the waist belt A1 forms the hip support A31. A leg support A51 is provided on one side of the hip support A31 in the transverse direction. The leg support A51 has two ends, serving as first fixed ends A511 and second fixed ends A512, connected to one end of the hip support A31. The natural depth of the leg support A51 between the first fixed ends A511 and the second fixed ends A512 is smaller than the natural depth of the hip support A31 between the first fixed ends A511 and the second fixed ends A512, so that the hip support A31 can switch between an expanded state and a collapsed state in the longitudinal direction of the infant support A3. Thus, when the infant carrier is carrying a larger infant, the infant's weight pulls the hip support portion A31 downward, extending it into an expanded state. This causes the seat area A101 to expand in depth to accommodate the infant's larger size. When the carrier is carrying a smaller infant, the infant's weight is less, so the hip support portion A31 contracts, causing the seat area A101 to shrink in depth to accommodate the infant's smaller size. In this way, the infant carrier can adaptively adjust the size of its seat area A101 based on the infant's size, while maintaining a simple structure and ease of use.
[0274] The above aspects and technical features of each embodiment of the present disclosure can be arbitrarily combined. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0275] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present disclosure. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the disclosed patent. It should be noted that a person of ordinary skill in the art may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the scope of the present disclosure, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure. Therefore, the scope of protection of the disclosed patent shall be determined by the appended claims.
