Description

[0001] The invention relates to a baby and toddler neckerchief, which is usually worn to collect the baby's saliva and / or as a warming accessory around the child's neck.

[0002] A pacifier clip or bandana with an attached pacifier is often attached to a baby or toddler's bandana. A disadvantage of this is that the pacifier clip and attached pacifier hang loosely from the child, exposing the pacifier to external contamination. This includes contamination from skin contact with other people, contamination from the pacifier dragging on the floor while crawling, and the pacifier falling onto the changing table during diaper changes, which can lead to contamination with unwanted bacteria, especially in public restrooms. The pacifier, contaminated in this way, is then put back into the child's mouth, which can be detrimental to the child's health.

[0003] The invention specified in claims 1 and 14 is based on the problem that the pacifier attached to the child hangs loosely from the pacifier chain and is therefore exposed to any external contamination.

[0004] This problem is solved by the features listed in the claims. The garment or baby and toddler scarf according to the invention has a pocket in which the pacifier attached to the pacifier chain is stored until the baby needs the pacifier.

[0005] Furthermore, the special shape and design of the bag ensures that the pacifier is caught by the bag when it is spat out and does not hang completely loosely down on the pacifier chain.

[0006] The invention ensures that the pacifier attached to the pacifier chain is stored in the pocket attached to the scarf until it is needed, thus protecting it from most external dirt. After use, the pacifier can be stored back in the pocket.

[0007] Advantageous embodiments of the invention are also described in the dependent claims.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom opening is designed such that a pacifier chain can be pulled through the bottom opening from outside the bag, at least into the bag, and optionally to the mouth area of ​​the baby or toddler, with the pacifier being attached or attachable to the pacifier chain. When in use, the pacifier chain is preferably pulled through the bottom opening from outside the bag, at least into the bag, and optionally to the mouth area of ​​the baby or toddler, and the pacifier is attached to the pacifier chain.

[0009] In another preferred embodiment, the bag has an opening in the bottom through which the pacifier chain is threaded before it is fixed to the neckerchief by means of the attachment (clip) provided on it.

[0010] These designs prevent the pacifier attached to the pacifier chain from falling out of the side of the pocket and hanging loosely from the chain.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the garment or baby and toddler bandana according to the invention comprises the pacifier chain and optionally the pacifier attached to the pacifier chain. The pacifier chain can be permanently attached to the garment or baby and toddler bandana or bandana, or it can be attached detachably, for example, with a clip. The detachable version can be advantageous because the pacifier chain can then be cleaned or replaced more easily. The non-detachable version can be advantageous because the pacifier chain cannot be lost and its position in the opening at the bottom can also be fixed.

[0012] Preferably, the opening for collecting the pacifier has a larger diameter than the opening at the bottom. This design allows the pacifier to be collected more effectively.

[0013] Preferably, the neckerchief has an end facing the neck of the baby or toddler, an end facing the lower body of the baby or toddler, an end facing the left side of the baby or toddler's body, and an end facing the right side of the baby or toddler's body, with the pocket attached, preferably sewn, to the neckerchief at the end facing the left side of the body and the end facing the right side of the body. This design allows the pacifier to be caught more effectively. Attachment by sewing is also advantageous during production and repairs.

[0014] In one embodiment, it is further preferred that the pocket and the pocket's opening for collecting the pacifier extend substantially across the maximum width of the scarf. This design allows the pacifier to be collected more securely.

[0015] It is also preferred that the bag tapers from the collection opening towards the bottom opening. In other words, the diameter of the bag decreases from the collection opening towards the bottom opening.

[0016] It is also preferred that the bottom opening is located in the middle at one end of the neckerchief facing the lower body of the baby or toddler.

[0017] These measures allow the schoolbag to be placed at a central collection point in the bag, making it possible to find it quickly without searching.

[0018] The scarf can be designed as a separate garment. However, it can also be part of a garment, such as a romper, bodysuit, vest, jacket, ski suit, neckerchief, or sweater, and be permanently attached to that garment.

[0019] In one embodiment, the garment can consist of the scarf and the bag.

[0020] The type of closure, shape, size, color, and material of the neckerchief are not particularly limited. An embodiment of the invention is described by reference to the Fig. 1 to Fig. 2 explained. It shows Fig. 1: Baby and toddler scarf with pocket Fig. 2: Baby and toddler scarf with pocket and pacifier chain with pacifier.
