Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] To provide a pouch that can be hung from a person's shoulder, more particularly, a pouch that allows an infant to sit on a storage portion and allows items stored in the storage portion to be easily taken out. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, waist pouches that allow a child to sit in have been proposed, such as those shown in the following patent documents.

[0003] This waist pouch is comprised of a waist belt that is attached around the waist of a person, a storage compartment attached to the waist belt for storing luggage, etc. An infant is seated on the upper surface of the storage compartment, and an upper body support member is provided to support the infant's back, allowing the infant to be held. With this configuration, it can be used as a pouch for storing personal belongings on a regular basis, and when it is necessary to hold an infant, the infant can be seated on the upper surface of the storage compartment and held. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3222667 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, such a configuration causes the following problems.

[0006] That is, when a child is seated in the waist pouch, the child sits on top of the storage compartment, making it difficult to see the zipper of the storage compartment located below, which makes it difficult to open and close the zipper or to remove items stored in the storage compartment.

[0007] Furthermore, when an infant is seated on the storage compartment in this manner, the storage compartment is compressed, making it difficult to open the zipper and causing the contents to be crushed.

[0008] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a seating pouch that can be easily opened and closed even when a child is seated, and that allows items stored in the storage section to be easily removed. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] In other words, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a seating pouch comprising a first belt that is worn so as to go around the human body, a storage section that is provided on the first belt and has a zipper that allows items to be stored inside, and a seating section for a child to sit in, in which the storage section has a joint that separates one end side from the first belt based on the other end side, and the joint is separated based on the one end side so that the zipper can be rotated so as to face upward.

[0010] With this configuration, even when a child is seated in the seat, the storage section can be rotated to point the zipper in a visible position, making it easy to open and close the zipper and remove items from the storage section.

[0011] In such an invention, when the first belt is provided, it is provided so as to go around the shoulders of a person.

[0012] With this configuration, the infant can be supported by the shoulders as if pulling the infant up, thereby reducing the burden on the lower back.

[0013] Furthermore, the seating portion is configured as a surface of the first belt that faces the human body, and the storage portion is removably attached to a surface of the first belt that faces away from the seating portion.

[0014] In this way, the belt-shaped surface of the first belt can support the infant, and by providing a storage section on the opposite surface, the storage section will not be crushed even when the infant is seated on the first belt.

[0015] The seating portion is also provided with a second accommodation portion for accommodating an upper body support member for supporting the back of an infant seated on the seating portion.

[0016] With this configuration, the upper body support member can be removed from the second storage section to support the infant's back while the infant is seated on the belt-shaped first belt, making it possible to hold the infant stably.

[0017] Furthermore, if the seating portion is provided with a second storage portion for storing an upper body support member that supports the back of an infant seated on the seating portion, a connecting member is provided for connecting the upper body support member to the first belt.

[0018] In this way, the upper body support member can be connected to the first belt via the connecting member while the first belt is hung on the shoulders, thereby ensuring that the child's back is supported.

[0019] The joints may be provided on both the left and right sides of the storage section so as to be separable from the first belt.

[0020] This configuration allows the holder to be rotated in either direction when worn on the right or left side, depending on whether the user is right-handed or left-handed. Furthermore, when both joints are separated, the holder can also be used as a hand-held pouch. [Effects of the Invention]

[0021] In this invention, a seating pouch comprises a first belt that is worn around a human body, a storage section that is provided on the first belt and has a zipper that allows items to be stored inside, and a seating section for a child to sit in.The storage section has a joint that separates the other end from the first belt based on one end, and the joint is separated based on the one end so that the zipper can be rotated so that it faces upward.Therefore, even when a child is seated on the seating section, the storage section can be rotated and directed to a position where the zipper can be seen, allowing the zipper to be opened and closed and items to be removed from the storage section.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0023] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0024] In this embodiment, the seating pouch 1 is designed to be worn diagonally across the shoulder. As shown in FIG. 1, the pouch includes a first belt 2 that is worn around a person's shoulder, a seating section 3 (see FIG. 2) attached to the first belt 2 for seating an infant, and a storage section 4 attached to the first belt 2 for storing personal belongings and other items. Characteristically, as shown in FIGS. 2, 3, 6, and other figures, the storage section 4 can be rotated relative to one end of each of the left and right sides of the storage section 4. By rotating the storage section 4 in this manner, a zipper 41 attached to the storage section 4 can be oriented toward a visible position (upper side), as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, allowing for easy opening and closing of the zipper 41 and removal of items. This embodiment will be described in detail below.

[0025] First, the first belt 2 is designed to be worn diagonally across a person's shoulders, and as shown in FIG. 1, it is composed of a relatively wide shoulder belt 21 and a cushioned shoulder pad 23. The lower end of the shoulder belt 21 is connected to the seating portion 3. Meanwhile, the shoulder pad 23 is connected to the upper end of the shoulder belt 21. A ring member 22 for connecting an upper body support member 5 (see FIG. 3), which will be described later, is provided at the boundary between the shoulder pad 23 and the shoulder belt 21, so that the upper body support member 5 can be hooked onto the ring member 22. Meanwhile, the shoulder pad 23 is composed of multiple pad elements 23a so that the shoulder pad 23 can be fixed to the end of the shoulder when worn diagonally across the shoulder. When in use, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, both pad elements 23a are separated, and one pad element 23a is hung on the upper arm near the shoulder, and the other pad element 23a is hung on the upper end of the shoulder so that the shoulder pad can be fixed to the end of the shoulder, In addition, when it is not necessary to separate these pad elements 23a, a belt 24 is provided to connect each pad element 23a, and the belt 24 is connected with a button 25 (as shown in Figure 1), thereby making it possible to keep the pad elements 23a integrated.

[0026] On the other hand, the seating section 3 (see Figs. 2 and 3) is connected to the lower end of the shoulder belt 21 and is made of a member wider than the shoulder belt 21, and is also made of a plane that is in the same plane as the band-like shoulder belt 21 and comes into contact with the parent's abdomen. By having an infant sit on the seating section 3 made of such a plane, the infant is supported by the first belt 2 hung over the shoulders. The seating surface of the seating section 3 is made of a cushioned or breathable material to improve seating comfort.

[0027] The seating portion 3 is also provided with a second storage section 31 for storing an upper body support member 5 for supporting the back of an infant, a connecting member 51 (see Fig. 3), and the like. As shown in Fig. 4, the second storage section 31 is designed to store the upper body support member 5 and the like inside fasteners 32 provided at two locations, one at the top and one at the bottom. The lower end portion of the upper body support member 5 is joined at the center position in the top and bottom of the second storage section 31, so that the upper body support member 5 can be removed symmetrically from the top and bottom regardless of whether the upper or lower fasteners 32 are opened.

[0028] When using this upper body support member 5, as shown in Fig. 3, the fastener located on the outside of the second storage section 31 is opened to remove the upper body support member 5, and the belt-like connecting member 51 is used to connect the upper body support member 5 to the ring member 22 on the upper end side of the shoulder belt 21. The belt-like connecting member 51 is also stored in the second storage section 31 in the same manner.

[0029] Furthermore, the second storage section 31 also accommodates a waist belt 6 (see FIG. 3) to be attached to the parent's waist. The waist belt 6 is attached to the end of a tongue 61 attached to the center of the interior of the second storage section 31. When in use, the fastener on the front side is opened to allow the tongue 61 to extend outside the second storage section 31, allowing it to be worn around the waist. Buckles on both ends of the tongue 61 are fastened to fit snugly around the waist. As shown in FIG. 4, the tongue 61 is attached to an opening 52 provided at the lower end of the upper body support member 5. This allows the upper body support member 5 and the tongue 61 to be pulled out from either the upper or lower fastener, making it suitable for both right-handed and left-handed users.

[0030] In this configuration, in this embodiment, a storage section 4 capable of storing items such as diapers, a wallet, a water bottle, etc. is provided on the front side of the seating section 3 which is configured in a flat shape.

[0031] The storage compartment 4 is configured in a box shape along the longitudinal direction of the first belt 2, with a plurality of independent storage compartments 4 provided inside, and a zipper 41 provided for each storage compartment 4. Here, as shown in FIG. 5, a zipper 41 is provided in the left-right direction in the center of the outer storage compartment 4 (the side farthest from the parent), and a zipper 41 that goes around the entire storage compartment 4 is provided in the storage compartment 4 on the front side (closer to the body) from there. In addition, a zipper 41 is provided in the largest storage compartment 4a (see FIG. 5) on the front side, in a position symmetrical above and below, so that items stored in the same space can be taken out from either side or the other side.

[0032] One of the left and right ends of the outside of the storage compartment 4 configured in this manner is rotatably attached to the first belt 2 or the seating portion 3 (or the second storage compartment 31) using fabric 43 or the like. The opposite end is connected by a detachable buckle 42. By releasing this buckle 42, the storage compartment 4 can be rotated using the opposite fabric 43 as a reference (the state shown in FIG. 6), so that the fastener 41 faces upward and can be seen. The buckle 42 is made of a magnet so that it can be easily attached and detached with one hand.

[0033] Next, a method of using the seating pouch 1 configured as above will be described.

[0034] First, when using the seat pouch 1, the shoulder strap 21 of the first belt 2 is worn diagonally across the shoulder. At this time, the user may wear it on either the right or left side, depending on their preference.

[0035] Then, with the seating pouch 1 slung diagonally, the infant is seated on the seating portion 3. At this time, the shoulder belts 21 are slightly stretched in advance, and the infant is seated on the seating portion 3 provided at the lower end of the shoulder belts 21 so that it faces upward (the state shown in Figs. 2 and 3). Then, if necessary, the pad element 23a of the first belt 2 is separated into left and right halves (the state shown in Figs. 2 and 6), and one side of the pad element 23a is placed on the upper arm, while the other side of the pad element 23a is positioned at the end of the shoulder, thereby fixing the shoulder pad 23 to the end of the shoulder.

[0036] Then, with the infant seated on the seat 3 being supported in this manner, the waist belt 6 is taken out from below the second storage section 31 provided on the seat 3 and wrapped around the waist (as shown in Figure 3). At this time, the tongue 61 is extended from the front side of the second storage section 31, and the waist belt 6 provided at the lower end of the tongue 61 is wrapped around the waist and fastened with a buckle.

[0037] Next, the upper body support member 5 is removed from the outside of the second storage section 31, and as shown in FIG. 3, the ring member 22 provided at the upper end of the shoulder belt 21 and the upper body support member 5 are connected with the connecting member 51.

[0038] By supporting the back of the infant with the upper body support member 5 in this way, the infant can be placed in close contact with the parent.

[0039] Next, when taking out belongings stored in storage compartment 4 while holding an infant in this manner, buckle 42 on one side of storage compartment 4 is released. This causes storage compartment 4 to rotate around fabric 43 on the opposite side (the state shown in Figures 2, 3, and 6), and fastener 41 on storage compartment 4 faces upward as shown in Figure 3.

[0040] The zipper 41 facing the visible position can then be opened to allow the wearer to remove personal belongings from inside.

[0041] According to the above embodiment, in the seating pouch 1 comprising a first belt 2 that is worn so as to go around the human body, a storage section 4 that is provided on the first belt 2 and has a zipper 41 that can store items inside, and a seating section 3 for seating an infant, the storage section 4 is provided with a buckle 42 that separates the other end of the storage section 4 from the first belt 2 based on the fabric 43 on one end, and the buckle 42 is separated based on the fabric 43 on the one end so that the zipper 41 faces upward.Therefore, even when an infant is seated on the seating section 3, the storage section 4 can be rotated to face the zipper 41 to a position where it can be seen, and the zipper 41 can be opened and closed.

[0042] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but can be implemented in various forms.

[0043] For example, in the above embodiment, the buckle 42 is attached to only one side of the storage section 4, and the other side is connected to the second storage section 31 side by the fabric 43, but it is also possible to attach buckles 42 to both sides and allow the storage section 4 to rotate in either direction by removing either the left or right buckle 42. Also, if buckles 42 are attached to both sides in this way, the storage section 4 can be used alone as a hand pouch by removing both buckles 42.

[0044] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, a plurality of storage spaces are provided in the storage section 4, but the number of storage spaces is not limited to this.

[0045] In addition, in the above embodiment, the first belt 2 and the seating portion 3 are described separately, but the seating portion 3 can also be considered as a part of the first belt 2. In this case, in relation to the present invention, the first belt 2 constitutes the seating portion 3.

[0046] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the upper body support member 5 and the waist belt 6 are stored in the second storage section 31, but the upper body support member 5 etc. may be made detachable from the inside of the second storage section 31 and may be joined to the inside of the second storage section 31 only when necessary.
