[0115] First and Second Aspects of the Present Disclosure

[0116] The basic structural principle and technical problem addressed by the present disclosure involve setting a seat height adjustment structure at varying heights on shoulder strap harness of a baby carrier, selectively connecting with a body piece, to achieve adjustment of a seat height and detachable replacement of the body piece.

[0117] Hereinafter, the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 to Fig. 8 illustrate a structure of a baby carrier 1 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure.

[0118] Fig. 1 schematically shows a front view of a baby carrier 1 according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure. The baby carrier 1 includes a shoulder strap assembly 100 (also referred to as a “harness assembly”) and a carrying piece 200 connected to the shoulder strap assembly 100. It should be noted that the “carrying piece” here does not mean that it is a “sheet”, but may also be referred to as a “carrying part” or a “carrying assembly” composed of a plurality of parts. The shoulder strap assembly 100 may be provided for a wearer to wear the baby carrier 1 on the body. Specifically, referring to Fig. 1 , an adult wearing the baby carrier 1 is schematically shown with dotted lines, which may be used to carry a child.

[0119] The shoulder strap assembly 100 includes a shoulder strap harness 110 and a waist strap 120. In this embodiment, the shoulder strap harness 110 is composed of two shoulder straps 111 , and the waist strap 120 is connected to a lower end (not shown in Fig. 1 ) of each of the shoulder straps 111 at a waist position of the adult and fixed at the waist using a clamp. In an example, the two shoulder straps 111 of the shoulder strap harness 110 may be two separate members, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the shoulder strap harness 110 may also be an integrated structure, for example, the two shoulder straps 111 may be connected with each other to form the shoulder strap harness 110, and then the shoulder strap harness 110 as a whole (e.g., the lower end) is fixedly connected to the waist strap 320.

[0120] The carrying piece 200 includes a seat carrying area 210 (also referred to as a “seat carrying part”) for the child to sit on, a body piece 220 (also referred to as “trunk support”) for holding the child’s body, and thigh support pieces 230. It should be noted that the “thigh support piece” does not mean that it is a “sheet”, but may also be referred to as “thigh support part”. One end of the seat carrying area 210 may be connected to the body piece 220 (for example, one end thereof), and the other end of the seat carrying area may be connected to the waist strap 120. The thigh support pieces 230 are arranged on either side of the seat carrying area 210 to provide support when child’s thighs protrude out of the carrying piece 200. In an example, one end of the thigh support piece 230 is connected to the body piece 220, and the other end of the thigh support piece is connected to the waist strap 120.

[0121] For example, under a wearing condition as shown in Fig. 1 , the carrying piece 200 is connected with the shoulder strap assembly 100 at the seat carrying area 210of the lower end and flips upwards, thereby allowing an upper end of the carrying piece 200 (that is, an end of the body piece 220 far away from the seat carrying area 210) to be fixedly connected to an upper end of the shoulder strap assembly 100, for example, the shoulder straps 111 of the shoulder strap assembly 100, through connecting members, such as clamp, magnetic clasps, buttons, etc.,. In this case, an accommodating part for carrying the child may be formed between the shoulder strap assembly 100 and the carrying piece 200, and the child’s thighs may protrude outwards from the baby carrier 1 at both sides of the seat carrying area 210 through the thigh support pieces 230, making the child’s ride more comfortable.

[0122] Fig. 2 shows a front view of the baby carrier 1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure in a first carrying state. In order to make the seat (i.e. , the position where the child's hip are accommodated) of the baby carrier 1 of the present disclosure to be used at different heights, the baby carrier 2 may be provided with a first seat height adjusting structure.

[0123] Specifically, to facilitate viewing the specific structure of the baby carrier 1 , Fig. 2 shows that the connecting member used to connect the upper end of the shoulder strap assembly 100 and the upper end of the body piece 220 of the carrying piece 200 has been opened. The body piece 220 is transformed from a carrying position or the child's riding position as shown in Fig. 1 to a hanging state, that is, hanging downward, thereby allowing an inside of the seat carrying area 210, which was obscured by the body piece 220 in Fig. 1 , and the thigh support pieces 230 on both sides of the seat carrying area 210 to be visible. In this state, it can be seen that the shoulder strap assembly 100 is provided with a first connecting member 130. According to this embodiment, the first connecting member 130 is positioned on a connecting strap 112 that transversely connects the two shoulder straps 111 , for example, roughly parallel to the waist strap 120.

A radian of the first arc-shaped part 241 is greater than a radian of the second arc-shaped part 242, thereby making the structure of the seat carrying area 210 according to the first aspect of the present disclosure more ergonomic and more comfortable for the child to ride.

[0138] Fig. 9 shows a front view of a baby carrier 1 according to another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure in a second carrying state. According to this embodiment, the waist strap 120 shields the shoulder straps 111 extending backward and makes the shoulder straps invisible, and an upper end of the seat carrying area 210 engaged with the thigh support piece 230 is also shielded bythe waist strap 120, and the upper end is connected to the two shoulder straps 111 of the shoulder strap harness 110 or the waist strap 120.

[0139] According to this embodiment, the chest piece 112 is spaced apart from the waist strap 120 at the middle portion of the two shoulder straps 111 , and the chest piece 112 is configured to lean against the child's chest, and also plays a role of a connecting strap for connecting the two shoulder straps 111 , so as to make the carrying more stable. In an example, a first connecting member 130, for example, in a form of a female zipper strip with a zipper head or a female zipper end is arranged on the lower end of the chest piece 112, and an engaging member 150, for example, in the form of a male zipper strip corresponding to the female zipper strip is arranged on the upper end of the waist strap 120. In the second carrying state, the engaging member 150 and the first connecting member 130 are separated from each other, so that the waist strap 120 and the seat carrying area 210 are separated from the chest piece 112, thereby expanding the seating space above the seat carrying area 210 for the large-sized child.

[0140] Fig. 10 shows a front view of the baby carrier 1 according to another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure in a first carrying state. According to this embodiment, the waist strap 120 is pulled close to the chest piece 112 together with the seat carrying area 210, so that the engaging member 150 on the waist strap 120 is engaged with the first connecting member 130 on the chest piece 112, for example, the female zipper strip and the male zipper strip are engaged with each other, thereby reducing the seating space above the seat carrying area 210 for the small-sized child.

[0141] Fig. 11 shows a partial front view of the baby carrier 1 in the second carrying state of Fig. 9 allowing for a clearer view of the first connecting member 130 on the chest piece 112, for example the female zipper strip with the zipper head, and the engaging member 150, for example the male zipper strip, at the waist strap 120 or at the sewing engagement between the waist strap 120 and the shoulder brace 111. In addition, as shown by the dotted lines in Fig. 11 , the male zipper strip may alternatively be arranged on the shoulder brace 111 or the waist strap 120, to facilitate easy adjustment to the different heights. The male zipper strip may be positioned not only on the upper side of the waist strap 120 but also between the upper and lowersides of the waist strap 120.

[0142] Fig. 12 shows a front view of the baby carrier 1 according to another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure in a second carrying state. Fig. 12 is a front view of an opposite side of the baby carrier 1 of Fig. 9. The shoulder straps 111 partially covers the chest piece 112 at the rear, so that only a part of the first connecting member 130 in the middle of the lower end of the chest piece 112 may be identified. The engaging member 150 is separated from the first connecting member 130 and is partially covered by the shoulder straps 111 in this embodiment. In the second carrying state, the seat carrying area 210 and the body piece 220 under the seat carrying area are in a lower position, so that a larger seating space can be provided when the child ride.

[0143] Fig. 13 shows a front view of the baby carrier 1 according to another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure in the first carrying state. According to this embodiment, the engaging member 150 is engaged with the first connecting member 130, and the two shoulder straps 111 are flexibly deformed between the chest piece 112 and the waist strap 120, for example, protruding outward as shown in the figure, so that a length of each of the shoulder straps 111 is shortened. Therefore, the position of the seat carrying area 210 and the body piece 220 under the seat carrying area is higher than that as shown in Fig. 12, thus providing a smaller seating space for the small-sized child.

[0144] Fig. 14 shows an exploded view of a baby carrier 1 according to another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure. In Fig. 14, the two shoulder straps 111 and the waist strap 120 that combine to form the shoulder strap assembly 100 can be seen. The shoulder straps 111 extend from one side of the waist strap 120 and are fixedly engaged at a connection between the waist strap 120 and the shoulder straps 111. The engagement may be done by any fixing methods, such as stitching or sewing.

[0145] As shown in Fig. 14, an engaging member 150 (see the embodiment of Fig. 11) is provided on an invisible rear side of the waist strap 120, and a first connecting member 130 is arranged on the chest piece 112. The first connecting member 130 and the engaging member 150 are in a separated state, so that the baby carrier 1 is in the second carrying state.

[0146] As shown in Fig. 14, in the vicinity of the connection between the waist strap 120 and the shoulder straps 111 , at the front side of the waist strap 120, the carrying piece 200 may be detachably engaged with the shoulder strap harness 110 or the waist strap 120 through connecting devices 160, 213. The connecting devices 160, 213 are, for example, a male zipper strip 160 and a female zipper strip 213 with a zipper head adapted thereto, wherein the female zipper strip 213 is positioned at an edge of the seat carrying area 210 which is engaged with the shoulder strap assembly 100, and the male zipper strip 160 is positioned on the waist strap 120 or the shoulder strap harness 110, for example, at the connection between the waist strap 120 and the shoulder strap harness 110. The connecting devices 160, 213 may also be buttons, clamps, etc. The carrying piece 200 may also be fixedly engaged with the shoulder strap harness 110 or the waist strap 120, by means of, for example sewing.

[0147] Figs. 15 and 16 show front views of the baby carrier 1 according to another embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure in the second carrying state.

[0148] In this embodiment, the chest piece 112 has an interlayer structure, for example, composed of two or more layers of fabrics, and the interlayer is configured in a pocket shape with a downward opening, for example. An extension piece 170 folded into the interlayer is arranged at a lower edge of the chest piece 112, and the first connecting member 130, a female zipper strip with a zipper head, for example, is positioned on the extension piece 170. According to this embodiment, the extension piece 170 extends downward from a lower edge of the outer fabric, for example, the connecting part 180 visible in Fig. 15. The extension sheet 170 may also extend downward from the lower edge of an inner fabric hidden by an outer fabric in Fig. 15, or from the lower edges of both the inner fabric and the outer fabric.

[0149] In addition, the extension piece 170 may be provided with a third fixing member 171. As can be seen in Fig. 15 from a corner of the extension piece 170 liftedupwards, the third fixing member 171 at the rear side is visible. The extension piece 170 after being folded into the interlayer is secured by the third fixing member 171. The third fixing member 171 may be Velcro, a buckle fastener, or a magnetic fastener.

[0150] According to this embodiment, the third fixing member 171 after being folded into the interlayer may cooperate 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 accommodated in an interlayer pocket of the chest piece 112. In this regard, referring to Fig. 16, the extension piece 170 as shown in dotted lines along with the first connecting member 130 are folded inward from the vicinity of the connecting member 180 and received in the interlayer pocket of the chest piece 112. This ensures that in the second carrying state, the unused first connecting member 130 does not affect the child’s riding comfort and is properly preserved. When it is necessary to use the first carrying state, the extension piece 170, along with the first connecting member 130, is first unfolded from the interlayer, and then the first connecting member 130 is engaged with the engaging member 150 as shown in Fig. 10, for example.

[0151] According to this embodiment, the carrying piece 200 may be separated from the shoulder strap assembly 100, so that the carrying piece 200 or the shoulder strap assembly 100 can be easily replaced. The beneficial technical effect of the present disclosure is that, by arranging the seat height adjustment structure such as the zipper structure at different heights on the shoulder strap harness 110 to be selectively connected with the carrying piece 200 and / or the shoulder strap harness 110 or the waist strap 120 of the shoulder strap assembly 100, the seat height can be adjusted to accommodate children of different body sizes. Additionally, the carrying piece 200 is designed as a detachable structure, which facilitates the pairing with the carrying pieces suitable for different seasons and meets diverse needs.

[0152] In addition, a second aspect of the present disclosure further provides a baby carrier 2. Referring to Figs. 17 to 20, Fig. 17 shows a front view of the baby carrier 2 according to a first embodiment of the second aspect of the present disclosure; Figs. 18 and 19 show partial views of the baby carrier 2 shown in Fig. 17, in which the first height adjusting member 510 and the second height adjusting member 520 are in different states, respectively; and Fig. 20 shows a partial view of the baby carrier 2according to a second embodiment of the second aspect. It should be noted that the baby carrier 2 of the present disclosure has a use state in which child sits and a nonuse state in which child does not sit. Fig. 17 shows the non-use state of the baby carrier 2. Although the “use state” is not shown in the figure, it should be understood that the baby carrier 2 is in the use state through Fig. 17.

[0153] Similar to the previous embodiments, the baby carrier 2 may include a shoulder strap assembly 300 and a carrying piece 400 connected to the shoulder strap assembly 300. As shown in Figs. 17 and 18, the shoulder strap assembly 300 allows a wearer to put the baby carrier 2 on his / her body. Specifically, the shoulder strap assembly 300 may include a shoulder strap harness 310 and a waist strap 320.The waist strap 320 may be bound to a waist of the wearer. For example, two ends of the waist strap 320 may be connected with each other by means of clamping, buckling, and Velcro, etc. to surround and to be secured to the waist of the wearer. One end of the shoulder strap harness 310 is connected to the waist strap 320, for example, by sewing, etc. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the shoulder strap harness 310 may also be connected to the waist strap 320 by detachable connection.

[0154] In an example, the shoulder strap harness 310 may include two shoulder straps 311 , and one end (such as a lower end) of each of the shoulder straps 311 is fixedly connected to the waist strap 320. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the shoulder strap harness 310 may also be an integrated structure, for example, the two shoulder straps 311 are connected to each other, and the lower end of the shoulder strap harness 310 as a whole is fixedly connected to the waist strap 320.

[0155] Referring to Figs. 17 and 18, the carrying piece 400 may include a seat carrying area 410, a body piece 420 and thigh support pieces 430. The seat carrying area 410 extends along a transverse direction D2 of the baby carrier 2 to form a seat area for a child to ride, and functions to support the hip of the child. One end of the seat carrying area 410 is connected to the body piece 420, and the other end of the seat carrying area 410 is connected to the waist strap 320, for example, by sewing.The body piece 420 may also be referred to as a “trunk support” which is configured to hold a child's body. When the baby carrier 2 is in the use state (i.e. , worn) as shownin Fig. 17, the other end of the body piece 420 may be detachably connected to the upper end of the shoulder strap assembly 300 (e.g., the shoulder strap harness 310) by means of clamping, snapping, and buttons, etc., so that at least a part of the carrying piece 400 may be flipped upward (see Fig. 17) to form a receiving portion for carrying child.

[0156] In an example, the seat carrying area 410 and / or the body piece 420 may be made of fabrics with characteristics such as waterproofing and breathability, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In other examples, the seat carrying area 410 and / or the body piece 420 may also employ mesh fabric (i.e. , material with a mesh pattern) to enhance breathability and extensibility, and to be lighter in weight.Optionally, the seat carrying area 410 and the body piece 420 may be made from the same material or from different materials. Furthermore, the seat carrying area 410 may be fixedly connected to the body piece 420, for example, by sewing, etc. Optionally or alternatively, the seat carrying area 410 may be integrally formed with the body piece 420, for example formed from the same material in one piece.

[0157] In this embodiment, the thigh support pieces 430 may be arranged at both sides of the seat carrying area 410. Specifically, one end (for example, a first connecting end 431) of the thigh support piece 430 is connected to the body piece 420, and the other end (for example, a second connecting end 432) of the thigh support piece 430 is connected to the waist strap 320. An opening is formed between the thigh support piece 430 and the seat carrying area 410 to provide a deformation space for the seat carrying area 410 when a child sits. The other specific structures of the carrying piece 400 refer to the aforementioned embodiments of the first aspect, and will not be repeated here.

[0158] In this embodiment, as shown in Figs. 18 and 19, the baby carrier 2 may also be provided with a second seat height adjustment structure. The second seat height adjusting structure may include a first height adjusting member 510 and a second height adjusting member 520. In an example, the first height adjusting member 510 is arranged on the seat carrying area 410, and the second height adjusting member 520 is arranged on the waist strap 320, and may be engaged with and disengaged from the corresponding first height adjusting member 510, so that when the first height adjusting member 510 and the second height adjusting member 520 are engagedwith each other, the size of the area of the seat carrying area 410 for carrying the child (i.e. , the seat area) in the longitudinal direction D1 and / or the length of the body piece 420 in the longitudinal direction D1 are shortened. In other words, when the baby carrier 2 is in the use state as shown in Fig. 17, and the first height adjusting member 510 is engaged with the second height adjusting member 520, the height of the seat carrying area 410 (i.e., the seat area) is lifted upward, thereby adjusting the height of the seat of the baby carrier 2.

[0159] In another example, the first height adjusting member 510 may also be arranged at a connection of the body piece 420 and the seat carrying area 410, or on the body piece 420 and near the connection. Optionally or alternatively, the second height adjusting member 520 may also be disposed on the seat carrying area 410, and is at a different position from the first height adjusting member 510 in a longitudinal direction D1 , but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0160] Specifically, as shown in Figs. 18 and 19, the first height adjusting member 510 may be a connecting buckle, such as a button. In an example, as shown in Fig.20 and Fig. 21 , the first height adjusting member 510 is connected to the seat carrying area 410 or the body piece 420 through two connection points in the longitudinal direction D1 , and the two connection points are roughly aligned in the longitudinal direction D1 , so that the first height adjusting member 510 is more easily shielded by the flap part in a transverse direction D2, thereby improving aesthetics of the product.The second height adjusting member 520 may be designed as a hoop, such as cloth hoop. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the first height adjusting member 510 and the second height adjusting member 520 may also be designed as hook and loop components, a buckle component, ties, etc. engaged with each other.

[0161] In this embodiment, taking the first height adjusting member 510 as a button and the second height adjusting member 520 as a cloth hoop as an example, the cloth hoop may be fixedly arranged at or near the upper end of the waist strap 320, for example, one end of the cloth hoop may be fixed to the waist strap 320 (the first fixing point P1 as shown in Fig. 18) by sewing. Optionally, as shown in Figs. 18 and 19, a sewing line for fixing the cloth loop (i.e., the sewing line corresponding to the first fixing point P1) may be spaced apart from the engagement (e.g., the sewing linetherebetween) between the upper edge of the waist strap 320 and / or the seat carrying area 410 and the waist strap 320, that is, they are not overlapped, but this disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0162] In a second embodiment of this aspect, the second height adjusting member 520 may be connected to the waist strap 320 through at least two fixing points.Specifically, as shown in Fig. 20, the second height adjusting member 520 (taking “cloth loop” as an example) may be fixed to the waist strap 320 through the first fixing point P1 and the second fixing point P2, wherein the first fixing point P1 is similar to that shown in the previous embodiments, and the second fixing point P2 may be arranged in the middle of the cloth loop (for example, corresponding to another sewing line spaced from the first fixing point P1), so that the second height adjusting member 520 may be fixed to the waist strap 320 more stably and firmly.

[0163] By the arrangement of the second seat height adjustment structure, that is, the cooperation of the first height adjusting member 510 with the second height adjusting member 520, the seat height of the baby carrier 2 may be further adjusted, particularly allowing for adjustment even while wearing the baby carrier 2. Specifically, the second height adjusting member 520 is arranged on the waist strap 320, for example, near the upper end of the waist strap 320, which can make an overall structure of the second seat height adjustment structure more stable, thereby providing more secure support, and also having a more obvious indicative nature (the wearer can more easily understand that the second height adjusting member 520 is a structure for height adjustment) and preventing misuse.

[0164] In addition, when the baby carrier 2 is used and a child rides in the baby carrier 2 (that is, when the baby carrier 2 is in use), regardless of whether the first height adjusting member 510 and the second height adjusting member 520 are engaged, the second height adjusting member 520 may be blocked by the child's hip (i.e. , the seat carrying area 410) when viewed in the front-back direction of the wearer, so that the appearance of the baby carrier 2 is more beautiful. In addition, a position of the first height adjusting member 510 in a longitudinal direction D1 may also be configured such that the first height adjusting member 510 may be blocked by the hip of the child when viewed in the front-back direction of the wearer, regardless ofwhether the first height adjusting member 510 and the second height adjusting member 520 are engaged or not.

[0165] In an example, the thigh support pieces 430 may include flap part 4302.Referring to Figs. 17 to 19, the flap part 4302 may be configured to at least partially extend inwards from the connection of the seat carrying area 410 and the thigh support pieces 430, so that the first height adjusting member 510, whether engaged with or not engaged with the second height adjusting member 520, can be at least partially shielded in the transverse direction D2 to maintain the beauty. Optionally, the thigh support pieces 430 are connected with the waist strap 320 and the body piece 420 respectively in the longitudinal direction D1 of the baby carrier 2 through the flap part 4302, that is, one end (i.e. , the first connecting end 431) of the flap part 4302 in the longitudinal direction D1 is connected with the body piece 420, and the other end (i.e., the second connecting end 432) of the flap part 4302 in the longitudinal direction D1 is connected with the waist strap 320.

[0166] Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 18, the thigh support pieces 430 may further include thigh support body parts 4301 , and the thigh support body parts 4301 may extend transversely (i.e., in the direction D2) outward from the flap part 4302, so as to support the thighs of child sitting in the baby carrier 2.

[0167] It should be noted that, although not specifically described, it should be understood that the various embodiments of the second aspect of the present disclosure can also be combined or alternatively used with the structures of the aforementioned first aspect, for example the first seat height adjustment structure composed of the first connecting member 130 and the second connecting member 140, etc., further details of which are not repeated here.

[0168] The structure of a carrying piece 400 will be described in detail in conjunction with specific embodiments. Referring to Figs. 21 and 22, specific structures of the carrying piece 400 according to two embodiments of the second aspect of the present disclosure are shown respectively.

[0169] As shown in Fig. 21, similar to the previous embodiments, the carrying piece 400 of this embodiment may include a seat carrying area 410, a body piece 420 and thigh support pieces 430. The seat carrying area 410 forms a seat area for child toride. One end of the seat carrying area 410 is connected to the body piece 420, and the other end of the seat carrying area 410 is connected to the waist strap 320. The thigh support pieces 430 are arranged at both sides of the seat carrying area 410. One end (i.e. , a first connecting end) of the thigh support piece 430 is connected to the body piece 420 and / or the seat carrying area 410 (e.g., a side edge), and the other end (i.e., a second connecting end) of the thigh support piece 430 is connected to the waist strap 320. Specifically, a part of the thigh support piece 430 is connected with the seat carrying area 410 and / or the body piece 420, and forms a first opening 433 and a second opening 434 with the seat carrying area 410, so as to provide a deformation space for the seat carrying area 410 when a child sits in the baby carrier 2.

[0170] Specifically, in this embodiment, the seat carrying area 410 may include a hip support body part 411 that extends along a transverse direction D2 of the baby carrier 2. The hip support body part 411 extends from the waist strap 320 to the body piece 420 in a longitudinal direction D1 , that is, one end of the hip support body part 411 is connected to the waist strap 320 and the other end of the hip support body part 411 is connected to the body piece 420. Optionally, the hip support body part 411 is arranged at a substantially central position of the seat carrying area 410 in the transverse direction D2. In an example, as shown in Fig. 21 , a transverse width of an end of the hip support body part 411 near the waist strap 320 is smaller than a transverse width of an end near the body piece 420, that is, the end of the hip support body part 411 near the waist strap 320 may be narrower, and the end near the body piece 430 may be wider. When a child faces the wearer and sits in the receiving portion of the baby carrier, the child's thighs need to be spread further apart to form a distinct “M” thigh shape. This design makes the part of the hip support main body 411 , in which the child's hip is seated, wider, allowing for greater deformation allowance. An older child (for example, over six months old) usually sit in the baby carrier with the back facing the wearer, his / her thighs may more naturally extended. Therefore, the sitting portion on the hip support main body 411 is narrower, to prevent the child's hip from sinking too much when sitting with his / her back to the wearer.

[0171] Furthermore, the seat carrying area 410 may further include hip support connecting parts 412. The hip support body part 411 and the hip support connectingpart 412 are connected to each other, for example, by a sewing line L13 and / or a sewing line L14 as shown in Fig. 21. One end of the hip support connecting part 412 is connected to the waist strap 320, and the other end of the hip support connection portion 412 extends along at least a part of the hip support body part 411 in the longitudinal direction D1 , and optionally extends to a longitudinal middle portion of the hip support body part 411 . At least a part of the thigh support piece 430 between the two connecting ends is connected to the seat carrying area 410 through the hip support connecting part 412.

[0172] In an example, the hip support connecting part 412 may be configured as a reinforcement member (also referred to as “first reinforcement member”) arranged on the hip support body part 411 to increase strength of the materials at both sides of the seat carrying area 410 and / or to enhance connection strength between the seat carrying area 410 and the thigh support pieces 430. The strength of the hip support connecting part 412 may be greater than the strength of the hip support body part 411. Optionally, a thickness of the hip support connecting part 412 may be greater than a thickness of the hip support body part 411. Optionally or alternatively, the strength of the material of the hip support connecting part 412 is greater than the strength of the material of the hip support body part 411 .

[0173] In addition, elasticity of the hip support body part 411 may be greater than elasticity of the hip support connecting part 412. That is, an area of the seat carrying area 410 where the reinforcement member (i.e. , the hip support connecting part 412) is not arranged may have a better extensibility, enabling the seat carrying area 410 near the body piece 420 to expand more widely, which is advantageous for the child to better achieve the M-thigh effect when sitting facing the wearer. In an optional example, the hip support body part 411 and the hip support connecting part 412 may have the same material and different thicknesses. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the hip support body part 411 and the hip support connecting part 412 may also have different materials.

[0174] In a specific example, as shown in Fig. 21 , an outer area of the seat carrying area 410 corresponding to the hip support connecting part 412 (where “outer side” refers to a side of the baby carrier 2 away from its receiving portion when being worn) is provided with a first height adjusting member 510, and correspondingly the waiststrap 320 is provided with a second height adjusting member (not shown in Fig. 21 , referring to Figs. 18 and 19). Similar to the previous embodiments, the first height adjusting member 510 and the second height adjusting member 520 may be engaged with each other to shorten a length of the seat carrying area 410 and / or the body piece 420 in the longitudinal direction D1 , thereby adjusting the height of the seat of the shoulder strap harness.

[0175] Specifically, as shown in Fig. 21 , at least a part of each of the thigh support pieces 430 between the two connecting ends (i.e., the first connecting end and the second connecting end) is connected with the seat carrying area 410 through the hip support connecting part 412. In an example, the thigh support piece 430 includes a thigh support body part 4301 and a flap part 4302. The Thigh support body part 4301 is configured to support a child's thighs. The flap part 4302 may be configured to at least partially extend from the connection between the seat carrying area 410 and the thigh support pieces 430 to the inner side in the transverse direction D2. One end of the flap part 4302 in the longitudinal direction D1 is connected to the body piece 420, and the other end of the flap part 4302 in the longitudinal direction D1 is connected to the waist strap 320. Optionally, the thigh support body part 4301 is positioned outside the flap part 4302 in the transverse direction D2 and extends outwards.

[0176] Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 21 , the thigh support piece 430 may be provided with a first sewing line L11 that defines the thigh support piece 430 into a thigh support body part 4301 and a flap part 4302. Optionally, in the longitudinal direction D1 , the first sewing line L11 is a curve with a middle portion bent to inside transversely. Optionally, the sewing line L13 (referred to as the third sewing line here and also used as a wrapping line of the hip support connecting part 412) for connecting the hip support body part 411 and the hip support connecting part 412 may at least partially overlap with the first sewing line L11.

[0177] In addition, the thigh support pieces 430 may also be provided with a second sewing line L12 that extends at least partially in parallel with the first sewing line L11 and is positioned transversely inside or transversely outside the first sewing line L11. As shown in Fig. 21 , the first sewing line L11 and the second sewing line L12 define a buffer connecting area 4303, which is positioned between the flap part 4302 and the thigh support body part 4301 in the transverse direction D2. Optionally, the seatcarrying area 410 (specifically, the hip support connecting part 412) may be connected to the thigh support pieces 430 through a part of the second sewing line L12.

[0178] By arranging two parallel sewing lines, i.e., the first sewing line L11 and the second sewing line L12, process stability of the baby carrier can be improved, and the strength of the thigh support pieces 430 itself, particularly the connection strength between the thigh support body part 4301 and the flap part 4302, can be increased. Furthermore, the buffer connecting area 4303 may form a connection buffer between the flap part 4302 and the thigh support body part 4301 , which have different thicknesses, so that the thigh support body part 4301 can better provide an upward support force when it is subjected to downward pressure, and the thigh support piece 430 can support the child’s thighs more stably.

[0179] In an example, the thickness of the thigh support body part 4301 may be greater than the thickness of the buffer connecting area, and the thickness of the buffer connecting area is greater than the thickness of the flap part 4302. Additionally or optionally, the thickness of the flap part 4302 may be greater than the thickness of the seat carrying area 410.

[0180] Referring to Fig. 22, a partial view of a baby carrier according to yet another embodiment is shown.

[0181] Similar to the previous embodiments, the carrying piece 400 of this embodiment may include a seat carrying area 410, a body piece 420 and thigh support pieces 430. The seat carrying area 410 may include a hip support body part 411 and a hip support connecting part 412. The hip support body part 411 and the hip support connecting part 412 may be divided by sewing lines L26, for example, similar to L14 in the previous embodiments. The thigh support pieces 430 are arranged at both sides of the seat carrying area 410 and connected between the waist strap 320 and the body piece 420. The thigh support piece 430 is provided with a first sewing line L21 (similar to L11 in the previous embodiments) to be divided into a thigh support body part 4301 and a flap part 4302.

[0182] Optionally, as shown in Fig. 22, the thigh support piece 430 is also provided with a second sewing line L22. The hip support connecting part 412 of the seatcarrying area 410 is connected to the thigh support pieces 430, specifically to the thigh support body part 4301 and / or the flap part 4302, for example, by the second sewing line L22. In this embodiment, the first sewing line L21 may coincide with the second sewing line L22. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the first sewing line L21 may not overlap with the second sewing line L22, for example, the second sewing line L22 may be inside the first sewing line L21. In this embodiment, both ends of the second sewing line L22 in the longitudinal direction do not extend to an edge of the hip support connecting part 412. In other embodiments, both ends of the second sewing line L22 in the longitudinal direction may extend to the edge of the hip support connecting part 412.

[0183] As shown in Fig. 22, a third sewing line L23 on the seat carrying area 410 may be configured as a wrapping line of the hip support connecting part 412, and optionally, the third sewing line L23 may also strengthen the connection between the hip support connecting part 412 and the thigh support piece 430.

[0184] In this embodiment, a longitudinal middle portion of the hip support connecting part 412 may protrude transversely outward to better shape the seat carrying area 410 into a pocket shape, creating a three-dimensional pocket, to facilitate the formation of an M-thigh configuration for the child’s thighs when seated. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the hip support body part 411 may not be formed in a pocket shape, but the elasticity of the hip support body part 411 is required to be sufficient.

[0185] In one example, the hip support body part 411 may be narrower at the end near the waist strap 320 and wider at the end near the body piece 430. This is because when the child faces the wearer and sits in the carrying compartment of the baby carrier, the child's thighs need to be spread further apart to form a distinct M-thigh shape. Such a design ensures that a part of the hip support body part 411 in which the child's hip sit (i.e., a sitting portion) is relatively wide, allowing for greater deformation allowance. The older child (for example, over six months old) typically sits in the baby carrier with his / her back to the wearer, the child’s thighs may be more naturally extended. Therefore, the sitting portion on the hip support body part 411 is narrower, to prevent the child's hip from sinking too much when sitting with his / her back to the wearer.

[0186] Optionally, the hip support connecting part 412 may be further provided with a fourth sewing line L24, which is used for additionally fixing the hip support connecting part 412 to the hip support body part 411 , so as to prevent the hip support connecting part 412 from shrinking too much in a non-use state, and / or to assist in connecting the hip support connecting part 412 with the flap part 4302, so as to make the connection between the seat carrying area 410 and the thigh support piece 430 more stable.

[0187] Optionally or alternatively, a second reinforcement member 4111 may also be arranged on a front side (opposite to the side as shown in Fig. 22) of the hip support body part 411. The second reinforcement member may be positioned near the waist strap 320 on the hip support body part 411 , and for example, fixedly connected through the fifth sewing line L15 (see Fig. 21), L25 (see Fig. 22), to enhance the overall durability of the baby carrier 2.

[0188] In this embodiment, the thigh support piece 430 is thicker than the seat carrying area 410. Optionally, the thickness of the thigh support body part 4301 is greater than the thickness of the flap part 4302, for example, by filling more foam in the thigh support body part 4301. Optionally, the thickness of the flap part 4302 is greater than the thickness of the hip support connection portion 412. Optionally or alternatively, the thickness of the hip support connecting part 412 may be greater than the thickness of the hip support body part 411. By gradually changing the thickness of the areas, the M-thigh of the child can be better formed when riding.

[0189] Furthermore, the strength of the hip support connecting part 412 is greater than the strength of the hip support body part 411 , and / or the elasticity of the hip support body part 411 is greater than the elasticity of the hip support connecting part 412, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0190] A Third Aspect of the Present Disclosure

[0191] The third aspect of that present disclosure provides a baby carrier. As shown in Fig. 23 to Fig. 25, the baby carrier includes a waist strap A1 , a shoulder strap harness A2, and a child support A3 respectively connected with the waist strap A1 and the shoulder strap harness A2. The shoulder strap harness A2 is arranged approximately in a longitudinal direction of the child support A3. A side of the childsupport A3 is connected with the waist strap A1 , and a side of the child support A3 far away from the waist strap A1 is detachably or non-detachably connected with the shoulder strap harness A2. That is, an upper side of the child support A3 is connected to the shoulder strap harness A2, and a lower side of the child support A3 is connected to the waist strap A1. In this embodiment, the upper side of the child support A3 is detachably connected with the shoulder strap harness A2 through a connecting member (such as a buckle). In other embodiments, the child support A3 may be fixedly connected with the shoulder strap harness A2. Specific connection modes between the child support A3 and the shoulder strap harness A2 are not limited in the present disclosure. Referring to Figs. 23 to 25, the child support A3 includes a hip support part A31 and a body support part A32, which are connected with each other. In this embodiment, the child support A3 is integrally formed. A side of the hip support part A31 far away from the body support part A32 is connected to the waist strap A1 , and a side of the body support part A32 far away from the hip support part A31 is connected to the shoulder strap harness A2.

[0192] It should be noted that the “longitudinal direction” of the child support A3 mentioned here specifically refers to a direction from the side where the child support A3 is connected with the waist strap A1 to the side where the child support A3 is connected with the shoulder strap harness A2, that is, a direction from the lower side to the upper side or from the upper side to the lower side of the child support A3.

[0193] Furthermore, as shown in Figs. 23 to 25, the baby carrier further includes a connecting member A4 for connecting the waist strap A1 and the shoulder strap harness A2. An accommodation space for accommodating the child is formed between the connecting member A4 and the child support A3. The connecting member A4 includes a first connecting member A41 and a second connecting member A42, and the first connecting member A41 is a substantially rectangular piece of fabric. There are two first connecting members A41 , which are spaced apart and connected to their respective shoulder strap harness A2. The two ends of the second connecting member A42 are connected to the two first connecting members A41 , respectively. In an embodiment, the connecting member A4 may also be an integrated piece of fabric, one side of the connecting member A4 is connected to the waist strap A1 , and the other side of the connecting member A4 is connected to the shoulderstrap harness A2. In another embodiment, the baby carrier may not include the connecting member A4, instead, the shoulder strap harness A2 may extend directly to and connect to the waist strap A1 .

[0194] Referring to Fig. 23 to Fig. 25, the side of the body support part A32 far away from the hip support part A31 , i.e., the side of the child support A3 far away from the waist strap A1 , is detachably connected with the shoulder strap harness A2, thereby facilitating the child to access in and out of the accommodation space. In use, the waist strap A1 may be fixed to a waist of the caregiver, and the shoulder strap harness A2 are hung on the shoulders of the caregiver. At this time, the connecting member A4 is attached to the caregiver’s body, and then the child may be picked up, and the side of the child support A3 far from the waist strap A1 is connected with the shoulder strap harness A2, allowing the child to sit in the accommodation space. In the baby carrier in this embodiment, the connecting member A4 and the child support A3 form the accommodation space, which has a good package protection function for the child.

[0195] Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 25, Fig. 26, Fig. 28 and Fig. 29, the baby carrier further includes thigh supports A51. In this embodiment, there are two thigh supports A51 that are respectively arranged on both sides of the hip support part A31 in a transverse direction, that is, on the left and right sides of the hip support part A31. The hip support part A31 and the thigh supports A51 form a seat area A101 for carrying the child. One end of the thigh support A51 and one end of the hip support part A31 are connected to the waist strap A1 and form a first fixed end A511 of the thigh support A51 and the hip support part A31 , and the other end of the thigh support A51 is connected to the other end of the hip support part A31 and form a second fixed end A512 of the thigh support A51 and the hip support part A31. A natural longitudinal L1 of the thigh support A51 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 is smaller than a natural longitudinal L2 of the hip support part A31 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512, so that the hip support part A31 may be switched between an expanded state and a collapsed state in the longitudinal direction of the child support A3. When the hip support part A31 is in the expanded state in the longitudinal direction, the seat area A101 in the longitudinal direction has a large size; when the hip support part A31 is in the collapsed state in the longitudinaldirection, the seat area A101 in the longitudinal direction has a small size. In actual use, when a child sits in the seat area A101 , the hip support part A31 may be in an expanded state due to self-weight of the child. However, when the child is not seated in the seat area A101 , the hip support part A31 is in a natural collapsed state.

[0196] It should be noted that a “transverse direction” of the child support A3 as described herein specifically refers to a direction from the left side to the right side or from the right side to the left side of the child support A3. The “longitudinal direction” of the child support A3 specifically refers to a direction from the side where the child support A3 is connected to the waist strap A1 to the side where the child support A3 is connected to the shoulder strap harness A2, that is, a direction from the lower side to the upper side or from the upper side to the lower side of the child support A3. The “natural longitudinal dimension” of the thigh supports A51 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 refers to an actual length of the fabric forming the thigh supports A51 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 in non-connected state. The “natural longitudinal dimension” of the hip support part A31 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 refers to an actual length of the fabric forming the hip support part A31 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 in the non-connected state.

[0197] In this embodiment, as shown in Figs. 25 to 27, the hip support part A31 is formed from a piece of fabric. The hip support part A31 is symmetrical about an axis, the axis is a longitudinal centerline that extends in the longitudinal direction of the child support A3. The hip support part A31 has a first edge A311 on both sides of the child support A3 in the transverse direction, meaning both the left and right sides of the hip support part A31 have the first edge A311. T aking the first edge A311 one side as an example, the first edge A311 includes an arc-shaped segment A3111 and a recessed segment A3112 connected with each other. The arc-shaped segment A3111 extends gradually away from the longitudinal centerline of the hip support part A31 from the first fixed end A511 towards the second fixed end A512. The recessed segment A3112 is connected to the arc-shaped segment A3111 and is recessed towards the direction of the longitudinal centerline of the hip support part A31. In a manufacturing process, the hip support part A31 may be made from a roughly rectangular piece of fabric by first cutting out the shapes of the recessed segmentsA3112 on both sides, then folding out the shapes of the arc-shaped segments A3111 on both sides, and finally sewing them together to form a shape with the first edge A311 as described above. In this embodiment, the arc-shaped segment A3111 extends outwards, facilitating the formation of the widest support dimension away from the first fixed end A511 , which is beneficial for the child's hip to have the widest support area when seated. At the same time, the arc-shaped segment A3111 forms the narrowest support dimension near the first fixed end A511 , facilitating the thigh support A51 to form the support and connect with a fixed sewing of the waist strap A1 . The recessed segment A3112 is close to the second fixed end A512, and due to the different longitudinal lengths of the thigh support A51 and the hip support partA31 , the setting of the recessed segment A3112 facilitates the fixed connection of the thigh support A51 with the hip support part A31 at the recessed segment A3112 through the second fixed end A512. It is also beneficial to arrange the second opening A103 at the recessed segment A3112. This can ensure the convenience of manufacturing and enhance the overall aesthetics.

[0198] Furthermore, the hip support part A31 has a first connecting part A312 on both sides of the child support A3 in the transverse direction, close to the first edge A311. The first connecting part A312 is a linear connecting member situated between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512.

[0199] In this embodiment, the two thigh supports A51 are generally elongated fabric structures, and the shape and structure of the two thigh supports A51 are essentially the same. Taking one of the thigh supports A51 as an example, as shown in Figs. 25 and 26, the thigh support A51 has a first supporting portion A513 and a second supporting portion A514. A thickness of the first supporting portion A513 is greater than a thickness of the second supporting portion A514, and a thickness of the first supporting portion A513 is also greater than a thickness of the child support A3. In this embodiment, it can be designed such that the thickness of the first supporting portion A513 is greater than the thickness of the second supporting portion A514, and the thickness of the second supporting portion A514 is greater than the thickness of the child support A3. In this way, the thigh support can provide stronger support for the thighs of the child and young child. In this embodiment, the first supporting portion A513 may be a multi-layer structure, for example, made of double-layer fabrics filled with hard fillings such as cardboard or elastic fillings such as cotton, making the first supporting portion A513 thicker. As shown in Fig. 28, the second supporting portion A514 covers the back of the hip support part A31 when the baby carrier is in use, forming a flap part for auxiliary support.

[0200] Specifically, as shown in Figs. 26 and 28, the thigh support A51 includes an outer edge A515 far away from the hip support part A31 and an inner edge A516 near the hip support part A31 , which are linear edges respectively. In this embodiment, because one end of the thigh support A51 is connected to the waist strap A1 , the outer edge A515 of the thigh support A51 may be designed as a linear edge, which is more beautiful and convenient to process. The thigh support A51 also has a boundary edge A517 between the outer edge A515 and the inner edge A516. The portion of the thigh support A51 at the outer edge A515 and the boundary edge A517 form a first supporting portion A513, and the portion of the thigh support A51 at the inner edge A516 and the boundary edge A517 form a second supporting portion A514. In this embodiment, the thigh support A51as a whole is a strip-shaped fabric structure sewn by double layers of fabrics, and its approximate middle portion has an arc-shaped boundary edge A517 arranged approximate along the longitudinal direction of the child support A3. The boundary edge A517 may be a sewing line, thereby dividing the thigh support A51 into a first supporting portion A513 and a second supporting portion A514. The portion near the outer edge A515 is the first supporting portion A513, which is filled with hard filler or soft filler as mentioned above and the thickness is bigger, and the portion near the outer edge A515 is the second supporting portion A514, which has no filler and is only a double-layer fabric structure, so the thickness is smaller. As shown in Figs. 25 and 26, the first fixed end A511 is formed by one side of the first supporting portion A513 and one side of the second supporting portion A514, while the second fixed end A512 is formed by only one side of the second supporting portion A514 due to the arc shape of the boundary edge A517.

[0201] Furthermore, as shown in Figs. 26 and 28, the thigh support A51 is further provided with a second connecting part A518 connected with the first connecting part A312. It can be understood that the second connecting part A518 is also a linear connecting member between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512. In this embodiment, the first connecting part A312 and the second connecting partA518 are sewn together. Of course, in other embodiments, the first connecting part A312 and the second connecting part A518 may also be connected by bonding or the like. In this embodiment, the second connecting part A518 is approximately positioned in the middle of the thigh support A51 and arranged approximate along the boundary edge A517, that is, the second connecting part A518 is positioned such that it deviates from the outer edge A515, and also deviates from the inner edge A516.

[0202] Furthermore, the first connecting part A312 and the second connecting part A518 may be arranged in various ways, so that there are different matching situations between the thigh supports A51 and the hip support part A31.

[0203] For example, in the first embodiment, as shown in Fig. 28 to Fig. 30, both the first connecting part A312 and the second connecting part A518 are connected with the second fixed end A512 and spaced apart from the first fixed end A511 . The portion of the thigh support A51 between the first fixed end A511 and the second connecting part A518 and the portion of the child support A3 between the first fixed end A511 and the first connecting part A312 form a first opening A102, that is, a first opening A102 is formed between the portion of the thigh support A51 near the waist strap A1 and the portion of the hip support part A31 near the waist strap A1 .

[0204] In a second embodiment, as shown in Fig. 31 and Fig. 32, the first connecting part A312 and the second connecting part A518 are positioned between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512, and are spaced apart from the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512. The portion of thigh support A51 between first fixed end A511 and second connecting part A518 and the portion of hip support part A31 between first fixed end A511 and first connecting part A312 form a first opening A102, and the portion of thigh support A51 between second fixed end A512 and second connecting part A518 and the portion of hip support part A31 between second fixed end A512 and first connecting part A312 form a second opening A103. That is, a first opening A102 is formed between the portion of the thigh support A51 near the waist strap A1 and the portion of the hip support part A31 near the waist strap A1 , and a second opening A103 is formed between the portion of the thigh support A51 far from the waist strap A1 and the corresponding portion of the hip support part A31 far away from the waist strap A1 .

[0205] In a third embodiment, as shown in Fig. 33, both the first connecting part A312 and the second connecting part A518 are connected with the first fixed end A511 and spaced apart from the second fixed end A512. The portion of the thigh support A51 between the second fixed end A512 and the second connecting part A518 and the portion of the hip support part A31 between the second fixed end A512 and the first connecting part A312 form a second opening A103, that is, the portion of the thigh support A51 away from the waist strap A1 and the corresponding portion of the hip support part A31 away from the waist strap A1 form a second opening A103.

[0206] In a fourth embodiment, as shown in Fig. 34, the first connecting part A312 and the second connecting part A518 extend continuously from the first fixed endA511 to the second fixed end A512, that is, the thigh support A51 and the hip support part A31 are completely stitched, and there is no opening formed between the thigh supports A51 and the hip support part A31.

[0207] In the above embodiment, if the first opening A102 or the second opening A103 is formed between the thigh supports A51 and the hip support part A31 , it is beneficial to the flexible connection and movable adjustment between the thigh supports A51 and the first connecting part A312.

[0208] Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 27, the hip support portion A31 has a first edge A311 on both sides in a transverse direction, respectively, and a distance W1 between the first fixed ends A511 of the two thigh supports A51 on both sides of the hip support portion A31 along the transverse direction is less than a maximum transverse distance W2 between the two first edges A311 of the hip support portion A31 . In this way, when the child is seated, his / her hip are seated in the widest support area. Particularly, when the child is facing the wearer, his / her thighs may be supported on a narrower area close to the waist strap, allowing the thighs to form an ergonomic M- shaped thigh.

[0209] It should be noted that the maximum transverse distance between the two first edges A311 of the hip support part A31 mentioned herein refers to a dimension of the fabric that forms the hip support part A31 between the two first edges A311 in a connected state.

[0210] Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 27, the hip support part A31 has at least one linear folding part A313, and the linear folding part A313 extends approximately in a longitudinal direction of the child support A3. Specifically, the linear folding part A313 is formed by folding and sewing the hip support part A31 in a transverse direction. In this embodiment, the hip support part A31 has two linear folding parts A313 spaced apart from each other, and both of the linear folding parts A313 are at the hip support part A31 near the waist strap A1. The arrangement of the linear folding part A313 can also help the hip support part A31 to form a pocket structure with a concave middle.

[0211] Furthermore, at least at one position, as shown in Figs. 27 to 29, a transverse distance between the two second connecting parts A518 of the two thigh supports A51 is less than a natural transverse dimension between the two first connecting parts A312 of the hip support part A31. The natural transverse dimension between the two first connecting parts A312 of the hip support part A31 , as described in this document, refers to an actual length of the fabric forming the hip support part A31 between the two first edges A311 in the non-connected state. In this way, in the transverse direction, the hip support part A31 is in a state of gathers at least at one position. Thus, the hip support portion A31 may be switched between a collapsed state and an expanded state in the transverse direction of the child support A3.

[0212] Specifically, as shown in Fig. 28, when the baby carrier is not in use, the hip support part A31 is in a collapsed state in the transverse direction of the child support A3. As shown in Fig. 29, when the baby carrier is in use, that is, when the child rides on the baby carrier, the hip support part A31 is in an expanded state in the transverse direction of the child support A3, and an expanded degree of the hip support part A31 may be adaptively adjusted according to the different body types of the child. Specifically, when the large-sized child sits on the baby carrier, the child may press the seat area A101 down by its own heavy weight, so that the hip support part A31 may be stretched downward and be in an expanded state, and the seat area A101 has a larger size in the longitudinal direction. At the same time, due to tensile deformation of the hip support part A31 , the child's gravity exerts a great force F on the two sides of the hip support part A31 and the connecting portions between the two corresponding thigh supports A51 , so that the hip support part A31 is stretched to a larger extent in the transverse direction of the child support A3 and has a lagerexpanded degree, and the two thigh supports A51 expand in a direction away from each other, and at the same time, the hip support part A31 is depressed under pressure to form a support, so that the seat area A101 is enlarged, thus being suitable for large-sized child, and the child's thighs may form an ergonomic M-shaped thigh. When a small-sized child sits on the baby carrier, because the child's gravity is small and the hip size is small, the hip support part A31 may not be stretched down too much, so the hip support part A31 is stretched to a smaller extent in the transverse direction of the child support A3 and has a smaller expanded degree, and the seat area A101 has a small size in the longitudinal direction. At the same time, the force F generated by the child's gravity on the two sides of the hip support part A31 and the connecting portions between the two corresponding thigh supports A51 is small, so that the hip support part A31 is less expanded in a transverse direction of the child support A31 , and the two thigh supports A51 are relatively close, so that the seat area A101 can be reduced, thus being suitable for the small-sized child, and enabling the child’s thighs to form the ergonomic M-shaped thigh.

[0213] Of course, in other embodiments, the first connecting part A312 and the second connecting part A518 may not be directly connected. As shown in Fig. 36, the hip support part A31 and the thigh support part A51 are elastically connected. Specifically, an elastic member A52 may be connected between the hip support part A31 and the thigh supports A51 , and the elastic member A52 may be switched between an extended state and a non-extended state. In this embodiment, the elastic member A52 is an integral elastic member. In other embodiments, the elastic member A52 may also be at least one strip-shaped elastic strip. Two sides or two ends of the elastic member A52 in the transverse direction of the child support A3 are connected to the first connecting part A312 and the second connecting part A518, respectively, providing sufficient elastic support for the seat area A101 .

[0214] In this way, when the baby carrier is not used, the elastic member A52 is in a non-extended state. When the baby carrier is in use, that is, when the child sits on the baby carrier, the elastic member A52 is in an extended state, and the extension degree of the elastic member A52 may be adjusted adaptively according to the different-sized children. When the baby carrier carries a large-sized child, the elastic member A52 may be extended to a larger extent under the action of the child's largergravity and larger hip size, so that the size of the seat area A101 in the transverse direction can be increased, thus being suitable for the large-sized child, and enabling the child's thighs to form the ergonomic “M”-shaped thigh. However, when the baby carrier carries a small-sized child, because the child's gravity is smaller and the hip size is small, the elastic member A52 may be extended to a smaller extent under the action of the child's smaller gravity and hip size, so it is suitable for the small-sized child, and enabling the child’s thighs to form the ergonomic “M”-shaped thigh.

[0215] Another aspect of the present disclosure also provides a baby carrier, which has thigh supports A51 , a waist strap A1 , shoulder strap harness A2 and a child support A3 respectively connected with the waist strap A1 and the shoulder strap harness A2, just like the baby carrier in the above embodiments. The portion of the child support A3 near the waist strap A1 also forms the hip support part A31. Two thigh supports A51 are arranged on both sides of the hip support part A31 in the transverse direction. One end of the thigh support A51 and one end of the hip support part A31 are connected to the waist strap A1 and form a first fixed end A511 of the thigh support A51 and the hip support part A31 , and the other end of the thigh support A51 is connected to the other end of the hip support part A31 and forms a second fixed end A512 of the thigh support A51 and the hip support part A31. The hip support portion A31 has a first edge A311 on both sides thereof in the transverse direction, and a distance W1 between the first fixed ends A511 of the two thigh supports A51 on both sides of the hip support parts A31 in the transverse direction is less than a maximum transverse distance W2 between the two first edges A311. This can ensure that the hip support portion A31 can form a concave pocket shape when the child is seated. Specifically, when the child is seated in the baby carrier, the weight of the child presses down on the seat area A101 , causing the two thigh support pieces A51 on both sides of the hip support portion A31 to move apart. At the same time, the hip support portion A31 is pressed inward to form support, enlarging the seat area A101 and allowing the child to form ergonomic "M" shaped thighs.

[0216] A third aspect of the present disclosure also provides a baby carrier, which has thigh supports A51 , a waist strap A1 , a shoulder strap harness A2 and a child support A3 respectively connected to the waist strap A1 and the shoulder strap harness A2, just like the baby carrier in the above embodiments. One end of the thighsupport A51 and one end of the hip support part A31 are connected to the waist strap A1 and form a first fixed end A511 of the thigh support A51 and the hip support part A31 , and the other end of the thigh support A51 is connected to the other end of the hip support part A31 and forms a second fixed end A512 of the thigh support A51 and the hip support part A31 . On at least one position, a transverse distance between the two second connecting parts A518 of the two thigh supports A51 is smaller than a natural transverse distance between the two first connecting parts A312 of the hip support part A31. In this way, the hip support part A31 can be switched between the collapsed state and the expanded state in the transverse direction of the child support A3.

[0217] Specifically, when the baby carrier is not in use, the hip support part A31 is in the collapsed state in the transverse direction of the child support A3. When the baby carrier is in use, that is, when a child is seated in the baby carrier, the hip support part A31 is in the expanded state in the transverse direction of the child support A3, and the expanded degree of the hip support part A31 can be adaptively adjusted according to the different body types of the children. Specifically, when the large-sized child sits in the baby carrier, the child can press down the seat area A101 by its own heavy weight, so that the hip support part A31 may be stretched downward and be in the expanded state, and the seat area A101 has a large size in the longitudinal direction. At the same time, due to tensile deformation of the hip support part A31 , the child's gravity exerts a larger force F on the two sides of the hip support part A31 and the connection between the two corresponding thigh supports A51 , so that the hip support part A31 is stretched to a larger extent in the transverse direction of the child support A3 and has a lager expanded degree, and the two thigh supports A51 expand in the direction away from each other, while the hip support part A31 is depressed under pressure to form a support, so that the seat area A101 is enlarged, thereby being suitable for the large-sized child to be seated, and the child’s thighs can form an ergonomic “M”-shaped thigh. When the small-sized child sits in the baby carrier, because the child's gravity is small and the hip size is small, the hip support part A31 may not be stretched down too much, so that the hip support part A31 is stretched to a smaller extent in the lateral direction of the child support A3, and the seat area A101 has a smaller size in the longitudinal direction. At the same time, the force F generated by the child's gravity on the two sides of the hip support part A31 and the connectingportions between the two corresponding thigh supports A51 is small, so that the hip support part A31 is less expanded in the transverse direction of the child support A31 , while the two thigh supports A51 are relatively close, so that the seat area A101 is reduced, thereby being suitable for the small-sized child to be seated, and the child's thigh can form an ergonomic “M” shape.

[0218] The baby carrier at least has following technical effects:

[0219] In the baby carrier, the waist strap A1 and the shoulder strap harness A2 are respectively connected to both sides of the child support A3 in the longitudinal direction, and the portion of the child support A3 close to the waist strap A1 forms the hip support part A31. The thigh support A51 is arranged on side of the hip support part A31 in the transverse direction, and two ends of the thigh support A51 are connected to one end of the hip support part A31 as the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512, respectively. The natural longitudinal dimension of the thigh support A51 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512 is smaller than the natural longitudinal dimension of the hip support part A31 between the first fixed end A511 and the second fixed end A512, so that the hip support part A31 can be switched between the expanded state and the collapsed state in the longitudinal direction of the child support A3. In this way, when the baby carrier carries a large-sized child, the hip support part A31 may be stretched downward and be in the expanded state under the gravity of the child, so that the size of the seat areaA101 in the longitudinal direction is large to adapt to the large-sized child. When the baby carrier carries the small-sized child, the hip support part A31 may be in the collapsed state due to the small gravity of the child, so that the size of the seat area A101 in the longitudinal direction is small to adapt to the small-sized child. In this way, the size of the seat area A101 can be adaptively adjusted according to the body shapes of the child, the structure is simple and it is convenient to use.
