[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of a safety device for facilitating early skin contact between mother and baby provided by this utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 The image shows a front view of a safety device that facilitates early skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby; Figure 3 for Figure 1 The image shows an unfolded front view of the load-bearing sleeve in a safety device that facilitates early skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby. Figure 4 for Figure 1 The image shows a front view of an auxiliary mechanism in a safety device that facilitates early skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby. The safety device includes a load-bearing sleeve 1, a storage sleeve 2 fixedly connected to the front of the load-bearing sleeve 1, a fitting opening 3 on the front of the load-bearing sleeve 1, a strap 4 movably fitted inside the load-bearing sleeve 1, a Velcro 5 fixedly connected to one end of the strap 4, a Velcro 6 fixedly connected to the other end of the strap 4, a protective sleeve 7 fixedly fitted inside the load-bearing sleeve 1, an auxiliary mechanism 8 inside the load-bearing sleeve 1, a protective mechanism 9 inside the load-bearing sleeve 1, ventilation holes 10 on the side of the load-bearing sleeve 1, a protective mesh cover 11 fixedly fitted to the bottom of the storage sleeve 2, and a load-bearing strap 12 fixedly fitted to the front of the load-bearing sleeve 1.

[0026] The storage sleeve 2 is located directly in front of the load-bearing sleeve 1, and the width of the storage sleeve 2 is the same as the width of the fitting opening 3. By setting up the storage sleeve 2, when the mother and baby are in skin-to-skin contact, the load-bearing sleeve 1 is put on the outside of the mother's body. At this time, the strap 4 is tightened and pressed on the outside of the Velcro 5, so that the Velcro 6 and the Velcro 5 can be fixed and tied to the outside of the mother's body by the strap 4. Then, the baby is placed inside the storage sleeve 2, so that the storage sleeve 2 can fix the baby's body to the outside of the mother's body. This allows the baby to be in close contact with the mother's skin through the fitting opening 3, thereby achieving the effect of skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby. This avoids the problem of needing to fix the baby's body parts when applying skin-to-skin contact, which makes the process more cumbersome and inconvenient.

[0027] The protective sleeve 7 is made of silicone material, and there are two protective sleeves 7. By setting the protective sleeve 7, when the load-bearing sleeve 1 is fixed and tied, the protective sleeve 7 can protect the tightened strap 4, so that the strap 4 can prevent the postpartum woman's skin from being injured by the strap when it is tightened for a long time, thereby improving the protective effect of the load-bearing sleeve 1 in fixing the postpartum woman's skin.

[0028] The auxiliary mechanism 8 includes a tightening rope 81, which is movably sleeved inside the storage sleeve 2. A spring buckle 82 is movably sleeved on the outside of the tightening rope 81. By setting the auxiliary mechanism 8, when the baby is placed inside the storage sleeve 2, pressing the spring buckle 82 and stretching the tightening rope 81 can tighten the storage sleeve 2, thereby allowing the storage sleeve 2 to bring the baby into contact with the mother's skin. This avoids the problem of the baby moving inside the storage sleeve 2 when the baby's body is small, thus improving the stability when the baby and the mother's skin are in contact.

[0029] The protective mechanism 9 includes a positioning sleeve 91, which is fixedly fitted inside the storage sleeve 2. A protective strip 92 is fixedly fitted inside the positioning sleeve 91. The protective strip 92 is made of wood fiber material. By setting up the protective mechanism 9, when the storage sleeve 2 is tightened, the protective strip 92 can separate the tightened storage sleeve 2, so that when the tightened storage sleeve 2 is concentrated, it will squeeze the baby and cause damage to the baby's skin, thus achieving the effect of protecting the baby.

[0030] There are several air vents 10, which are evenly distributed on the side of the load-bearing sleeve 1. By setting the air vents 10, when the load-bearing sleeve 1 is tightly attached to the outside of the mother's body for a long time, the air inside the load-bearing sleeve 1 can be discharged to the outside of the load-bearing sleeve 1 through the air vents 10, thereby increasing the exchange rate of air inside and outside the load-bearing sleeve 1, thus improving the air dissipation effect inside the load-bearing sleeve 1, that is, improving the air permeability when the safety device is used.

[0031] The protective net cover 11 is made of natural fiber material and is located directly below the storage cover 2. By setting the protective net cover 11, when the mother and baby are in contact with each other, the protective net cover 11 can support the baby curled up inside the storage cover 2 by deformation, which avoids the problem of the baby being uncomfortable due to the hardness inside the storage cover 2, thereby improving the softness of the bottom of the storage cover 2, that is, improving the comfort inside the storage cover 2.

[0032] The load-bearing strap 12 is made of nylon, and there are two load-bearing straps 12. By setting the load-bearing strap 12, when the storage sleeve 2 is used to fix the baby, the load-bearing strap 12 greatly improves the stability of the connection between the load-bearing sleeve 1 and the storage sleeve 2, thereby avoiding the problem of deformation of the connection when the storage sleeve 2 is squeezed by the baby's fall, thus improving the stability of the connection of the storage sleeve 2.

[0033] The storage sleeve 2 is made of the same material as the load-bearing sleeve 1, and the storage sleeve 2 is made of natural fiber material. By setting up the storage sleeve 2, when the mother and baby's skin are in contact, the natural fiber material of the storage sleeve 2 and the load-bearing sleeve 1 greatly improves the comfort and breathability inside the safety device, thereby avoiding the problem of sweating when the safety device is used in hot weather, thus improving the comfort when using the safety device.

[0034] The working principle of the safety device that facilitates early skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0035] Step 1: First, when performing skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby, place the support sleeve 1 over the mother's body. Tighten the strap 4 and press it against the outside of the Velcro 5, so that the Velcro 6 and Velcro 5 are secured to the support sleeve 1 through the strap 4. Then, place the baby inside the storage sleeve 2, which holds the baby's body in place. This allows the baby to fit snugly against the mother's skin through the opening 3, achieving effective skin-to-skin contact. This avoids the need to fix the baby's limbs during skin-to-skin contact, which can be cumbersome and inconvenient. While the support sleeve 1 is being secured, the protective sleeve 7 protects the tightened strap 4. This design addresses the issue of the binding strap 4 causing skin chafing when tightened for extended periods, thus improving the protective effect of the weight-bearing sleeve 1 in securing the mother's skin. When the baby is placed inside the storage sleeve 2, pressing the spring buckle 82 and stretching the tightening rope 81 tightens the storage sleeve 2, allowing it to hold the baby close to the mother's skin. This prevents the baby from moving inside the storage sleeve 2 when small, improving stability when the baby is in contact with the mother's skin. When the storage sleeve 2 is tightened, the protective strap 92 separates the tightened storage sleeve 2, preventing the baby from being squeezed when the tightening is concentrated, thus achieving the desired protective effect.

[0036] Step Two: When the support sleeve 1 is tightly fitted to the mother's body for an extended period, the air inside the support sleeve 1 can be released to the outside through the vent 10, thereby increasing the air exchange rate between the inside and outside of the support sleeve 1 and improving the ventilation effect inside the support sleeve 1. This improves the breathability of the safety device during use. When applying the support sleeve to the mother's skin, the protective mesh 11 can support the curled-up baby inside the storage sleeve 2 through deformation, avoiding the problem of discomfort to the baby caused by the hardness inside the storage sleeve 2. This improves the softness of the bottom of the storage sleeve 2, thus improving the comfort of the baby. The comfort inside the storage sleeve 2 is enhanced by the support belt 12, which greatly improves the stability of the connection between the support sleeve 1 and the storage sleeve 2 when the storage sleeve 2 is used to fix and support the baby. This prevents the storage sleeve 2 from deforming when it is squeezed by the baby's fall, thus improving the stability of the connection. When the storage sleeve 2 is in contact with the skin of the mother and baby, the natural fiber material of the storage sleeve 2 and the support sleeve 1 greatly improves the comfort and breathability inside the safety device, thus preventing the safety device from sweating in hot weather and improving the comfort of using the safety device.

[0037] Compared with related technologies, the safety device provided by this utility model that facilitates early skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby has the following beneficial effects:

[0038] By setting up the storage sleeve 2, when the mother and baby are in skin-to-skin contact, the load-bearing sleeve 1 is put on the outside of the mother's body. At this time, the strap 4 is tightened and pressed on the outside of the Velcro 5, so that the Velcro 6 and the Velcro 5 can be fixed and tied to the outside of the mother's body by the strap 4. Then, the baby is placed inside the storage sleeve 2, so that the storage sleeve 2 can fix the baby's body to the outside of the mother's body. This allows the baby to be in close contact with the mother's skin through the sealing opening 3, thereby achieving the effect of skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby. This avoids the problem of needing to fix the baby's body parts when applying skin-to-skin contact, which makes the process more cumbersome and inconvenient.
