Description

The present invention relates to an assembly and device for transporting a child. The present invention further relates to a coupling assembly used in such an assembly or device. The present invention also relates to a device for transporting a child comprising the coupling assembly. In addition, the present invention relates to a travel cot. An example of aknown assembly for transporting a child comprises a frame, one or more child supporting devices such as a child seat or travel cot that can be coupled to the frame, and a U- shaped push bar. The frame comprises a frame body having an upper side and a lower side, a supporting member coupled to frame body at the lower side, and a plurality ofwheels each coupled to a respective wheel receiving section ofthe frame body at the lower side. Assemblies of the type above have different applications. For example, the assembly can be used to transport a child that is seated in a child seat. Alternatively, the assembly can be used to transport a child that is lying down in a travel cot. Here, it is noted, that most assemblies are sold with different types of child supporting devices such as a child seat or travel cot. Anotherknown device for transporting a child is a boulder cart, beach cart, or child wagon. In this application, one or more children can be transported simultaneously. Typically, during transport, the child or children is / are sitting in an upright position. To be able to have all the applications described above, a parent or other user is required to purchase a plurality of assemblies / devices. This can be both costly and space consuming. Assemblies for transporting a child exist in many shapes and forms. Typically, the construction of such assemblies needs to be strong enough to prevent any risk of the child falling out. The parts of the assembly therefore need to be secured or fixed adequately to one another. As a result, in prior art assemblies, a user cannot easily replace a damaged part. Typically, once a given part of the assembly has become damaged, a user is either required to send the entire assembly back to the manufacturer or other service center, or the user is required to buy another assembly. Another problem with prior art assemblies is that recycling after the lifetime of the device is complicated. Once the assembly is discarded, there is little to no opportunity to re-use parts that are still functional. An object of the present invention is to provide an assembly for transporting a child in which at least some of the abovementioned problems are at least partially addressed. To that end, the present invention provides an assembly that is characterized in that the U- shaped push bar is configured to be releasably coupled to the frame, and in that the assembly is configured to be switchable between a first configuration in which a child supporting device among the one or more child supporting devices and the push bar are both coupled to the frame body at the upper side, and a second configuration in which a child supporting device among the one or more child supporting devices is supported by the supporting member and wherein the push bar is coupled to frame body at the lower side. With the assembly according to the present invention, three different applications can be realized with a single assembly. More specifically, in the first configuration, a child can be transported in a lying position, using a travel cot, or in an siting position, using a child seat. In the second application, using the same or a different travel cot, one or more children can be transported in a sitting position. The assembly may form a stroller in the first configuration. In this case, the one or more child supporting devices may comprise a child seat. Although configured to support a child in a sitting position, the present invention equally relates to child seats that are adjustable between a state in which a child can be supported in a sitting position and a state in which a child can be supported in a lying position. The present invention equally relates to child seats that can be configured to be arranged in one or more states in between the abovementioned two states. The one or more child supporting devices may additionally or alternatively comprise a travel cot. In this case, the assembly may form a boulder cart, beach cart, or child wagon in the second configuration. Furthermore, the travel cotmay comprise a child supporting area configured to support one or more children. This child supporting area can be configured to be transformable between a first state in which the child supporting area is defined by a substantially at supporting surface allowing a child to lie on the supporting surface, and a second state in which part of the child supporting area is arranged downset from a remainder of the child supporting area allowing the one or more children to sit on the remainder of the child supporting area while feet of the one or more children are supported by the downset part of the child supporting area. The child supporting area can be defined by at least two members that are releasably and / or moveably connected to each other. The travel cotmay comprise a bottom wall that defines the child supporting area and a side wall. In this case, the travel cot can be configured to accommodate a child inside the travel cot on a first side of the bottom wall. The bottom wall may comprise a first part, a second part, and a third part arranged in between the first part and second part. The third partmay comprise a first subpart and a second subpart. The second subpartmay connect the second part to the first subpart. The travel cotmay further comprise a exible supporting element that extends on a second side of the bottom wall opposite to the first side. The exible supporting elementmay for example comprise a band or strip of suitable fabric such as nylon or polyester webbing or leather. Other options for realizing a exible supporting element comprise chain like elements. The travel cotmay then be configurable in a first state, corresponding to the first state of the child supporting area, in which the first part, second part, and third part are arranged in line, and in a second state, corresponding to the second state of the child supporting area, in which the exible supporting element supports the first subpart at a height position remote from a height position ofthe first and second parts. When the travel cot is configured in the second state, the travel cot can be configured to allow a child to sit on the first or second part while supporting feet of the child by the first subpart. Furthermore, the side wall may comprise a circumferential ridge that supports the first and second parts of the bottom wall, and that supports the third part of the bottom wall when the travel cot is configured in the first state.

An end ofeach second arm remote from the corresponding jointmember may be hingedly coupled to the supporting member. Each first arm may comprise a first sub-arm, a second sub-arm, and a first arm hinge. Each first sub-arm may be arranged in between the corresponding first wheel receiving section and the corresponding first arm hinge. Each second sub-armmay be arranged in between the corresponding first arm hinge and the corresponding joint member. Each second sub- arm may be hingedly coupled to the corresponding joint member. Each first sub-arm may be hingedly coupled to the supporting member. The first arm hinge is configured to allow the first sub-arm and second sub-arm to pivot relative to each other. Each first arm hinge may comprise a resilient element resisting the first sub-arm pivoting towards the second sub-arm and / or the first coupling units may be provided in the joint members. The plurality ofwheels may comprise at least one second wheel that is rotatably coupled to a respective wheel receiving section ofthe frame body. The end ofeach second arm remote from the corresponding jointmember may be connected to, either directly or through a further tubular member, ormay comprise the wheel receiving section to which the at least one second wheel is coupled. The at least one second wheelmay comprise a pair ofsecond wheels. The wheel receiving section for each second wheel may be configured to allow the second wheel to swivel. The wheel receiving section for each second wheel may comprise a swivel limiter that is configured to be operable in a first state in which it does not limit a swiveling angle of the second wheel, and in a second state in which it limits the swiveling angle to be in a predefined range. The predefined range may be from 180+A degrees to 180-A degrees, wherein 0 degrees corresponds to the position of the second wheel when the assembly is used in the first configuration and is moved straight ahead, and whereinA is preferably less than 160 degrees, more preferably less than or equal to 145 degrees. The swivel limiter may be manually operable. Each swivel limitermay comprise a slider and at least one limiting element. When the corresponding second wheel swivels, the at least one limiting element performs a rotating movement together with the second wheel and the slider remains stationary relative to the frame body. When the swivel limiter is operating in the first state, the slider is in a first position allowing the corresponding second wheel to swivel freely. When the swivel limiter is operating in the second state, the slider is in a second position blocking the at least one limiting element to rotate further when the at least one limiting element comes into contact with the slider thereby limiting the swiveling angle of the second wheel. The first wheels may be rear wheels and the at least one second wheel can be a front wheel. The push barmay comprise a pair of outer tubular members and a U-shaped tubular member ofwhich ends are received in the pair of outer tubular members. The U-shaped tubular member may be configured to be telescopically adjustable in the pair of the outer tubular members.

Each coupling assemblymay comprise a first at least partially hollow member having a wall that is provided with an opening. The coupling assembly may further comprise a second member comprising a first part and a second part configured to be arranged inside and outside of the first at least partially hollow member, respectively, wherein the first part comprises a first leg and a second leg. The coupling assemblymay further comprise a spreading unit configured for spreading apart the first and second legs to thereby clamp the first part in the first at least partially hollow member. The spreading unit is preferably reversibly removable through and / or insertable in the opening. Because the spreading unit can be removed through the opening of the first member, the clamping action of the first and second legs can be broken, allowing the first and second members to be decoupled. Using the one or more coupling assemblies, the device for transporting a child can be constructed in such a manner that at least some parts can be removed from the device for repair, replacement, or maintenance. A further advantage is that not all parts of the device are prone to wear to the same extent. The one or more coupling assemblies therefore allow parts that are damaged or otherwise compromised to be replaced while maintaining the rest of the device with the original parts. Consequently, the one or more coupling assemblies allow the use ofrefurbished devices. Additionally, elements that are in need ofreplacement can be easily replaced with anew element, rather than having to replace the complete device, allowing for longer use of the same device. The abovementioned first sub-arm may comprise, at an end where it is connected to a respective wheel receiving section, one of the firstmember and second member of the coupling assembly. Said respective wheel receiving section may then comprise the other of the firstmember and second member of the coupling assembly. Additionally or alternatively, the first sub-arm may comprise, at an end where it is connected to a respective first arm hinge, one of the firstmember and second member of the coupling assembly. Said respective first arm hinge may then comprise the other ofthe firstmember and second member of the coupling assembly. The second sub-arm may comprise, at an end where it is connected to a respective joint member, one of the first member and second member of the coupling assembly. Said respective jointmember may then comprise the other of the firstmember and second member of the coupling assembly. Additionally or alternatively, the second sub-armmay comprise, at an end where it is connected to a respective first arm hinge, one of the firstmember and second member of the coupling assembly. Said respective first arm hinge may then comprise the other of the firstmember and second member of the coupling assembly. The present invention is not limited to the components above. Other pairs ofcomponents can also be connected using the coupling assembly, wherein one component comprises the first member and the other member the second member. For example, the coupling assembly can be used for connecting a second arm to a wheel receiving section, for connecting the wheel receiving section to a further tubular member through which it is connected to another wheel receiving section. The first part of the second member may comprise an opening between the first leg and the second leg. The first leg and second leg are preferably arranged to pivot and / or deform elastically when clamping the first part in the firstmember as a result of the spreading unit being arranged in between them. The second member may further comprise a third part between the first part and the second part. The third part is configured for preventing the second part being inserted in the firstmember and allowing the opening of the firstmember to be aligned with the opening of the first part of the second member. The third partmay be shaped as a ridge. Furthermore, the spreading unitmay have a tapered threading. At least one of the first part and the second part of the second member may be made out of polymeric material, such as polyamide, polypropylene or polyoxmethylene. Additionally, or alternatively, the firstmember can be made out of aluminum, steel, carbon, polyethylene, or polypropylene.

When switching from the first to the second configuration, a user may decouple coupling units C2, C3, detach wheel 12 from wheel receiving section 121, remove adaptor A1, and re-attach wheel 12 to wheel receiving section 121. Figure 11 shows an embodiment of travel cot 200 when assembly 1 is configured in the first configuration. Travel cot 200 comprises a bottom wall 210 and a side wall 220. Travel cot 200 is configured to accommodate a child inside travel cot 200 on a first side ofbottom wall 210. Bottom wall 210 comprises a first part 211, a second part 212, and a third part 213 arranged in line between first part 211 and second part 212. Third part 213 comprises a first subpart213A and a second subpart 213B. This configuration of travel cot200 is referred to as the first state. Figure 12 shows an embodiment of travel cot 200 when assembly 1 is configured in the second configuration. Here, travel cot 200 is shown in the second state. Travel cot 200 comprises a exible supporting element 214 that extends on a second side ofbottom wall 210 opposite to the first side. In the second state, exible supporting element 214 supports first subpart213A at a height position remote from a height position of first and second parts 211, 212, whereas second subpart 213B connects first subpart213A to second part 212. In the second state, travel cot 200 is configured to allow a child to sit on the first or second part 211, 212 while supporting feet of the child by first subpart 213A. Side wall 220 comprises a circumferential ridge 221 that supports first and second parts 211, 212 ofbottom wall 210 and that supports third part 213 ofbottom wall 210 when travel cot 200 is configured in the first state. Now referring to figures 13 and 14, wheel receiving section 131 for second wheel 13 is configured to allow second wheel 13 to swivel. Wheel receiving section 131 comprises a swivel limiter that is configured to be operable in two states. In the first state, the swivel limiter does not limit a swiveling angle of second wheel 13. In the second state, the swivel limiter limits the swiveling angle to be in a predefined range, said predefined range being from 180+A degrees to 180-A degrees, wherein 0 degrees corresponds to the position of the second wheel when the assembly is used in the first configuration and is moved straight ahead, such as shown in figure 8, and whereinA is preferably less than 160 degrees, more preferably less than or equal to 145 degrees. This allows for swiveling of the wheels while the device is standing in place. Limiting the angle further prevents the wheel(s) from swiveling to a position as shown in figure 6. In that case, an unstable situation would occur, for example when ascending or descending with the assembly in the second configuration, off a sidewalk. The swivel limiter is manually operable. Swivel limiter comprises a slider 1311 and at least one limiting element 1312 that is coupled to wheel 13. When second wheel 13 swivels, at least one limiting element 1312 performs a rotating movement together with second wheel 13. On the other hand, slider 1311 remains stationary relative to frame body 10. When the swivel limiter is operating in the first state, slider 1311 is in a first position allowing corresponding second wheel 13 to swivel freely. When the swivel limiter is operating in the second state, slider 1311 is in a second position blocking at least one limiting element 1312 to rotate further when at least one limiting element 1312 comes into contact with slider 1311 thereby limiting the swiveling angle of second wheel 13. As described in the above embodiments, assembly 1 is configured to be switched between a first and a second configuration. Switching between these two configuration will be described next. When a user wants to switch from the second to the first configuration, second coupling units C2 ofpush bar 30 need to be decoupled from third coupling units C3 of adapters A1, for the purpose ofdecoupling push bar 30 from the lower side offrame body 10. Then, first wheels 12 need to be removed from wheel receiving section 121. Adapters A1 can then be removed and first wheels 12 can be reattached to wheel receiving sections 121. Next, push bar 30 is coupled to the upper side offrame body 10 using coupling units C1, C2. Next, a pair of adapters A2 needs to be coupled to the upper side offrame body 10, more specifically to joint members 101. Child supporting member 200 can then be removed from supporting member 11 and be attached, using adaptors A2, to frame body 10 at the upper side thereof. Instead ofmounting the child supporting member that was coupled in the second configuration, e.g. travel cot 200, a different child supporting member, e.g. a child seat 300, can be mounted in the first configuration. Switching from the first configuration to the second configuration will require a user to perform the above described steps in a reversed manner. In the description ofassembly 1, coupling units C1, C2, C3 were mentioned, wherein coupling unit C1 is configured to couple with coupling unit C2, and wherein coupling unitC2 is also configured to couple with coupling unit C3. These pairs of coupling units are part of a coupling assembly. Such coupling assembly can be used for other components in assembly 1. For example, figure 1 shows different locations of coupling assemblies with arrows S. Details ofthese coupling assemblies will be described next referring to figures 15-20. Figure 15 shows a detailed view of an embodiment of a coupling assembly 2000 between members of the device. In this figure, a first partially hollow member 2001, such as a tubular member, has a wall 2011 with an opening 2012.A second member 2002 comprises a first part 2021 and a second part 2022. Second part 2022 may be a tubular member, ajoint member, or a wheel receiving section. First part 2021 comprises a first leg 2211 and a second leg 2212. The legs are separated by an opening 2213. Opening 2213 may be defined by optionally threaded walls of first leg 2211 and second leg 2212. The legs can be made of a resilient material allowing the legs to deform, bend, and / or pivot. For example, legs 2211, 2212 can be made of a polymeric material, such as polyamide, polypropylene or polyoxmethylene. In some embodiments, first part 2021 and second part 2022 are integrally formed. In other embodiments, first part 2021 is fixedly connected to second part 2022. Second member 2002 may be inserted into firstmember 2001 as shown in figure 16. Second member 2002 comprises a third part 2023 between first part 2021 and second part 2022. Third part 2023 prevents second part 2022 being fully inserted in firstmember 2001. It further allows alignment ofopening 2012 of firstmember 2001 with opening 2213 of first part 2021 of second member 2002. In figure 15, third part 2023 is shaped as a ridge. When wall 2011 abuts third part 2023, opening 2213 is aligned with opening 2012. Coupling assembly 2000 further comprises a spreading unit 2003. Spreading unit 2003 is reversibly removable through opening 2012. Inserting spreading unit 2003 in opening 2012 when first part 2021 is inserted in firstmember 2001 causes spreading unit 2003 to also be inserted in opening 2213, as opening 2012 and opening 2213 are aligned. This is shown in figure 17. Insertion of spreading unit 2003 will cause first leg 2212 and second leg 2213 to spread apart. As a result, first part 2021 may clamp in firstmember 2001 thereby coupling firstmember 2001 and second member 2002. Removing spreading unit 2003 causes first leg 2212 and second leg 2213 to lose their clamping function and allows first and second members 2001, 2002 to be separated from each other. Preferably, legs 2212, 2213 move back to their original position. Any deformation of legs 2212, 2223, if any, is preferably elastic. Now referring to figures 18 and 19, spreading unit 2003 may have a threading 2003A that is optionally tapered. An outer side of spreading unit 2003 comprises a rib 2032 arranged at a top surface 2031 of spreading unit 2003. First leg 2211 is connected to a resilient tab 2131, preferably integrally, that protrudes to the second leg 2212. Similarly, second leg 2212 is connected to a resilient tab 2132, preferably integrally, that protrudes to the first leg 2211.A space between first and second protruding tabs 2131, 2132 corresponds to a shape of rib 2032. Resilient tabs 2131, 2132 are part of a stopping device as will be explained next. First and second protruding tabs 2131, 2132 and rib 2032 are positioned such that when spreading unit 2003 is inserted into the opening 2012 for spreading first and second legs 2211, 2212, it pushes against and elastically deforms first and second protruding tabs 2131, 2132 until it reaches a desired position and orientation at which point a space between protruding tabs 2131, 2132 matches the orientation of rib 2032. This is shown in cross-sectional view in figure 19. At this point, protruding tabs 2131, 2132 snap back thereby making a noise. This provides feedback to the user that spreading unit 2003 has been sufficiently tightened. In assembly 1 discussed in connection with figures 1-14, connections between various components can be established using coupling assembly 2000. The following non-exhaustive list describes which component of assembly 1 can be provided with which component of coupling assembly 2000.
