[0036] To explain the technical specifications and structural features of the present invention, as well as the objectives and effects achieved, relevant embodiments and figures are described below.

[0037] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7. Figures 1 and 2 are views from different perspectives of a carrycot structure 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figures 3 and 4 are views from different perspectives of a carrycot 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 is a partial perspective view of the carrycot 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 is another partial perspective view of the carrycot 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 7 is a perspective view of a base 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figures 1 to 7, the carrycot structure 1000 includes a carrycot 100 and a base 200. The base 200 can be installed on a vehicle seat such as a car seat, a boat seat, or an aircraft seat. The carrycot 100 is detachably attached to the base 200. The carrycot 100 includes a carrycot body 10 and a mounting bracket 20. The carrycot body 10 is for accommodating a child and allows a harness to pass through. The mounting bracket 20 is located on the outer surface of the carrycot body 10. Specifically, the mounting bracket 20 includes a bracket main body 2A, two engaging parts 23, and a mounting assembly 24. The two engaging parts 23 can be detachably engaged with the base 200 and can be detachably installed on the base 200 to realize positioning of the carrycot main body 10. A harness can be coupled to the mounting assembly 24, passed through the carrycot main body 10, and extended inside the carrycot main body 10. However, the number of engaging parts is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the mounting bracket can include only one engaging part.

[0038] 1, 3, 5 and 6, each of the engaging parts 23 includes an engaging portion 231 for positioning the carrycot body 10. Each engaging portion 231 protrudes from the bracket body 2A and is spaced apart from the bracket body 2A by a certain gap. The above-mentioned configuration makes the engagement between the engaging parts 23 and the base 200 more convenient and therefore easier to use.

[0039] Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 3 , 5 , and 6 , fixing portions 232 are formed on both ends of each engaging part 23 to secure the engaging part 231 to the bracket main body 2A, and each engaging part 231 can be fixed to the bracket main body 2A by the corresponding fixing portion 232. To stabilize the overall structure, the two fixing portions 232 on both ends of each engaging part 23 may be integrally formed with the corresponding engaging portion 231 in the middle of each engaging part 23, and the two fixing portions 232 of each engaging part 23 may be integrally formed with the bracket main body 2A. Specifically, to make the overall structure appropriately compact, each engaging part 23 may have a curved rod-like structure, and each engaging part 231 may be formed in the middle of each engaging part 23, and two fixing portions 232 may be formed in both ends of each engaging part 23. However, the structure of the engaging parts is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the fixing portion may be fixed to the bracket main body by engagement, screwing, or welding, and the engaging portion may be fixed to the fixing portion by engagement, screwing, or welding. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the engaging part may be formed in a different shape, for example, the engaging part may be an engaging block having an engaging recess.

[0040] Alternatively, as shown in Figures 3 to 6, the mounting bracket 20 is arranged on the outer surface of the carrycot body 10. Specifically, the carrycot body 10 is formed with mounting slots 14 for cooperating with the mounting bracket 20. The bracket body 2A is installed on the mounting slots 14. The cooperation between the bracket body 2A and the mounting slots 14 can make the connection between the mounting bracket 20 and the carrycot body 10 more stable.

[0041] As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the mounting bracket 20 includes a plurality of pipes. The pipes may be a plurality of metal pipes. The plurality of metal pipes may be individually manufactured and then installed on the carrycot body 10, or they may be welded together after manufacturing and then installed on the carrycot body 10. In this way, the mounting bracket 20 including a plurality of metal pipes not only makes the overall structure stable and compact, but also makes installation of the mounting bracket 20 more convenient. However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in other embodiments, the plurality of pipes may be a plurality of plastic pipes, or the plurality of plastic pipes may be integrally formed.

[0042] Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 , the bracket body 2A includes a bottom pipe 21 and two side pipes 22. The bottom pipe 21 is disposed on the bottom surface of the carrycot body 10. The two side pipes 22 are disposed on two sides of the carrycot body 10, respectively. Two engaging pieces 23 are disposed on the bottom pipe 21. The two engaging pieces 23 may be formed integrally with the bottom pipe 21. The above-described configuration of the bottom pipe 21 and the two side pipes 22 can further stabilize the structure of the carrycot 100. However, the structure of the bracket body is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the bracket body may include only one side pipe on one side of the carrycot body.

[0043] 1 to 6, the carrycot 100 further includes a handle 101 movably arranged on the mounting bracket 20. Specifically, the handle 101 is rotatably connected to the side pipe 22 of the mounting bracket 20, i.e., the handle 101 is rotatably attached to the carrycot body 10 by the mounting bracket 20. The above-described configuration of the handle 101 allows a user to easily carry or transport the carrycot 100 together with a child by holding the handle 101, and when the carrycot 100 does not need to be carried or transported, the handle 101 can be folded swivelably so that it is substantially in close contact with the carrycot body 10, thereby reducing the space occupied by the carrycot 100. However, the structure of the handle is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the handle may be movably connected directly to the carrycot body.

[0044] 3, 5 and 6, the mounting assembly 24 includes shoulder strap mounts 242 and crotch strap mounts 241 for respectively attaching the shoulder straps and crotch strap of the harness, and is configured so that the shoulder straps and crotch strap of the harness can be easily extended as they pass through the interior of the carrycot main body 10. Therefore, in the present invention, the configuration of the shoulder strap mounts 242 and crotch strap mount 241 described above makes it possible to provide a comfortable and safe environment for the child inside the carrycot main body 10.

[0045] Specifically, as shown in Figures 3 to 6, the shoulder strap mount 242 has two first shoulder strap holes 2421 formed therein. In addition, two second shoulder strap holes 12 are formed in the bottom surface of the carrycot body 10. The two first shoulder strap holes 2421 are aligned with the two second shoulder strap holes 12, respectively, so that the shoulder straps can pass through the two first shoulder strap holes 2421 and the two second shoulder strap holes 12 and easily extend into the carrycot body 10. The crotch strap mount 241 has a first crotch strap hole 2411 formed therein. In addition, the bottom surface of the carrycot body 10 has a second crotch strap hole 11 formed therein. The first crotch strap hole 2411 is aligned with the second crotch strap hole 11, allowing the crotch strap to easily extend inside the carrycot body 10 by passing through the first crotch strap hole 2411 and the second crotch strap hole 11. However, the number of first shoulder strap holes, second shoulder strap holes, first crotch strap holes and second crotch strap holes is not limited to this embodiment and will depend on the practical design of the shoulder straps and crotch straps. For example, in another embodiment, there may be only one first shoulder strap hole formed in the shoulder strap mount and only one second shoulder strap hole formed in the bottom part of the carrycot body. Alternatively, in another embodiment, there may be two first crotch strap holes formed in the crotch strap mount and two second crotch strap holes formed in the bottom part of the carrycot body.

[0046] 3 and 6, the mounting bracket 20 further includes a first fixing part 2B and a second fixing part 2C for respectively restraining the two engaging parts 23. Each of the first fixing part 2B and the second fixing part 2C includes two fixing blocks 26 arranged on both ends of the corresponding engaging part 23. The fixing blocks 26 not only stabilize the connection between the engaging part 23 and the bracket body 2A, but also abut against the base 200 to restrict relative movement of the carrycot 100 with respect to the base 200. By restricting relative movement between the carrycot 100 and the base 200, the restraining blocks 26 ensure safe use of the carrycot 100 when the two engaging parts 23 are engaged with the base 200.

[0047] 3 and 6, the mounting bracket 20 further includes two reinforcing parts 27. Each of the reinforcing parts 27 is disposed between a corresponding one of the two fixing blocks 26 of the first fixing part 2B and a corresponding one of the two fixing blocks 26 of the second fixing part 2C, such that the corresponding one of the two fixing blocks 26 of the first fixing part 2B is fixed to the corresponding one of the two fixing blocks 26 of the second fixing part 2C by the corresponding reinforcing part 27. The reinforcing parts 27 not only make the overall structure more stable, but also abut against the base 200, thereby restricting relative movement of the carrycot 100 with respect to the base 200. By restricting relative movement between the carrycot 100 and the base 200, the reinforcing parts 27 ensure safe use of the carrycot 100 when the two engagement parts 23 engage with the base 200. Specifically, each of the reinforcing parts 27 may be a rod-shaped structure. However, the structure of the mounting bracket is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the reinforcing component may be a block-shaped structure. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the mounting bracket may include only one reinforcing component disposed between two corresponding fixing blocks. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the mounting bracket may include only one of the first fixing component and the second fixing component, i.e., there may be only one fixing component.

[0048] 3 and 6, the mounting bracket 20 further includes an auxiliary reinforcing component 28 disposed between the mounting assembly 24 and the bracket body 2A and fixed to the mounting assembly 24 and the bracket body 2A to make the overall structure more stable. Specifically, the auxiliary reinforcing component 28 is disposed between the shoulder strap mount 242, the crotch strap mount 241, and the bracket body 2A. However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the mounting bracket may include multiple auxiliary reinforcing components disposed individually between the shoulder strap mount and the bracket body and / or between the crotch strap mount and the bracket body.

[0049] 3, 5, and 6, the mounting bracket 20 further includes two support blocks 25 arranged at the end of the bottom pipe 21 away from the two engaging parts 23. The height of each of the support blocks 25 from the bracket body 2A is equal to the height of each of the fixing blocks 26 from the bracket body 2A. Therefore, the support blocks 25 and the fixing blocks 26 can cooperate to support the carrycot body 10 in the horizontal direction. When the carrycot 100 is used alone, for example, when the carrycot 100 is placed on the ground or a desk, the above configuration is adopted to prevent a child inside the carrycot body 10 from being injured due to the carrycot body 10 accidentally tipping over. However, the number of support blocks is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the mounting bracket may include only one support block.

[0050] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the carrycot body 10 can be made of foam material to ensure the overall structure is stable but not bulky. The combination of the foam carrycot body 10 and the mounting bracket 20, which includes a metal pipe, makes the structure of the carrycot 100 stable and lightweight. Furthermore, a number of through-holes 13 can be formed in the carrycot body 10, which not only achieves the purpose of ventilation and air circulation, but also reduces the weight of the carrycot body 10 for convenience in use and transportation.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 7 , two locking parts 201 protrude from the base 200 and cooperate with two engaging parts 23, respectively. Each of the locking parts 201 is formed with a locking slot 202 for engaging with a corresponding engaging part 23. Each of the locking parts 201 may have a protruding structure, and each of the locking slots 202 may have a recessed structure, so that each of the engaging parts 23 can be easily engaged with the base 200. However, the number of locking parts is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, there may be only one locking part protruding from the base.

[0052] 1 and 4 to 7 , two restraining blocks 203 are provided protruding from the base 200 to restrict movement of the carrycot 100 relative to the base 200. Specifically, when each of the engaging parts 23 engages with a corresponding lock slot 202, each of the locking parts 201 abuts against a corresponding fixing block 26 along the first direction X, and each of the restraining blocks 203 abuts against a corresponding fixing block 26 along the second direction Y, so as to restrict each of the engaging parts 23 from moving relative to the corresponding lock slot 202 along the first direction X and the second direction Y. The first direction X may be perpendicular to the second direction Y. Specifically, the first direction X may be parallel to the longitudinal direction of the carrycot body 10, i.e., the longitudinal direction of the carrycot 100, and the lateral direction of the base 200. The second direction Y may be parallel to the lateral direction of the carrycot body 10, i.e., the lateral direction of the carrycot 100, and the longitudinal direction of the base 200. The longitudinal direction of each of the engaging parts 23 may be parallel to the first direction X, i.e., the longitudinal direction of each of the engaging parts 23 may be parallel to the longitudinal direction of the carrycot body 10, i.e., the longitudinal direction of the carrycot 100.

[0053] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 3, the carrycot 100 can not only be removably mounted on the base 200, but also, once removed from the base 200, can be removably mounted on the carrier frame, so that the carrycot 100 and the carrier frame together form a child carrier. Therefore, the carrycot 100 is versatile. Specifically, the child carrier can be a stroller or a crib, and the carrier frame can be a stroller frame or a crib frame.

[0054] As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6 , the carrycot 100 further includes two first connecting parts 102. The carrier frame includes two second connecting parts for cooperating with the two first connecting parts 102, respectively. The carrycot 100 is detachably mounted on the carrier frame through cooperation of the two first connecting parts 102 and the two second connecting parts. Specifically, one first connecting part 102 is respectively disposed on the two side pipes 22 of the bracket body 2A, and two second connecting parts are respectively disposed on two sides of the carrier frame. Each of the first connecting parts 102 can be engaged or disengaged with a corresponding second connecting part to attach or detach the carrycot 100 to or from the carrier frame. However, the structure and number of the first connecting parts and second connecting parts are not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, two first connecting parts may be respectively disposed on two sides of the carrycot body. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the carrycot may include only one first connecting part arranged at the bottom of the carrycot body, and the carrier frame may include only one second connecting part arranged at a position corresponding to the first connecting part.

[0055] Compared with the prior art, in the present invention, the engaging parts are used to position the carrycot body, and the mounting assembly is used to attach the harness. Therefore, the advantages of the present invention are that the structure is simple and easy to operate. Furthermore, the present invention provides a comfortable and safe environment for children. Furthermore, the carrycot provided by the present invention can be adapted to be attached to various vehicle seats, such as car seats, boat seats, or aircraft seats. Furthermore, the carrycot provided by the present invention can be adapted to be installed on various carrier frames, such as stroller frames or crib frames.
