Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a seat forming member of a child-care instrument such as a baby carriage, a child safety seat or the like and more particularly, it relates to a seat forming member having an excellent cold protection function.
- 2. Description of the Background Art
- At the time of going out with a child in a baby carriage in a cold season, it is necessary to protect the child from the cold. Therefore, in general, a warm cloth such as a blanket is laid over the child seated in the seat.
- However, since the child often moves on the seat, the blanket falls down or slips out of place, which causes insufficient cold protection. Further, when the baby carriage is folded, it is necessary to take the blanket away so as not to hinder the folding operation.
- An outfit for protection against cold which does not slip off a seat of a baby carriage is disclosed in Publication No. 6-71366 of unexamined Japanese Utility Model Application. According to the outfit for protection against cold, two pieces of warm cloth are sewed together and connected to the body of the baby carriage by using a string mounted on its upper end. The outfit for protection against cold extends over the seat of the baby carriage and both legs of the child are put in the overlapped portion of the warm cloth.
- The outfit for protection against cold disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-71366 is prepared separately from a seat forming member of the baby carriage. Therefore, the number of parts is increased and a mounting operation on the seat forming member is troublesome. Furthermore, since it is prepared separately from the seat forming member of the baby carriage, it could hinder a folding operation of the baby carriage, for example. Even if the baby carriage can be folded in a state where the outfit is mounted, the position of the outfit could slip out of place when the baby carriage is opened.
- In addition, since the outfit for protection against cold disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-71366 keeps only both legs of the child warm, protection against cold is not sufficient.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a seat forming member of a child-care having an excellent cold protection function. More particularly, it is to provide a seat forming member in which position adjustment is unnecessary in both states in which the child-care instrument are opened and folded and during a transferring operation between both states.
- A seat forming member of a child-care instrument according to the present invention comprises a seat portion, a backrest portion, and a body cover extending from both side edges of the seat portion and both side edges of the backrest portion toward the center, and covering the seat portion and the backrest portion.
- According to the above constitution, since the seat forming member itself comprises the body cover, the number of parts can be reduced. Especially, in the case of the child-care instrument which can implement an opened state and a folded state, the body cover can be conveniently housed in the seat in both states. In addition, since the body cover extends from both side edges of the seat portion and both side edges of the backrest portion toward the center, almost the whole of the child body can be kept warm. Furthermore, since the body cover is connected to both side edges of the seat portion and the backrest portion, drafts can be effectively prevented. When the body cover is used by appropriately selecting a material of the body cover even in a hot season, the child body can be protected from ultraviolet rays.
- According to one embodiment, the backrest portion of the seat forming member includes a pair of side walls rising from both side edges thereof. In this case, the body cover preferably extends from the upper ends of the pair of side walls toward the center. According to this constitution, large space for holding the child can be provided between the body cover and the backrest surface or the seat surface. Preferably, the body cover extends along the pair of side walls and the backrest surface of the backrest portion in a horseshoe shape in order to provide larger space for holding the child or to be able to put the child on the body cover.
- Preferably, a front edge of the body cover and a front edge of the seat portion are releasably connected. Thus, when the child grows up, legs of the child can be released by releasing the front edge of the body cover and the front edge of the seat portion.
- According to one embodiment, the body cover is detachably connected to the seat portion and the backrest portion. As a concrete example, both side edges of the body cover are detachably connected to both side edges of the seat portion and the backrest portion. Thus, the body cover can be attached in a cold season and it can be detached in a hot season.
- Preferably, an upper edge of the body cover includes a neck portion cut in a horseshoe shape, and upper ends connecting portions extending both sideways from upper ends of the neck portion and connected to upper edge of the backrest portion. According to the above constitution, the shoulder. portion of the child can be protected from the cold air. In addition, since the upper portion of the shoulder is closed, drafts can be prevented from entering.
- According to one embodiment, the body cover has a cut portion cut in downward from the upper edge thereof. The parts separated on either side by the cut portion are detachably connected. As a concrete example, the body cover may comprise a slide fastener extending downward from the center of the upper edge thereof. According to the above constitution, since the center portion of the body cover can be opened by drawing the slide fastener downward, the child can be easily put under the body cover or easily picked up from the seat portion.
- Furthermore, according to one embodiment, the body cover has a neck portion cut from the upper edges thereof in a horseshoe shape, and a periphery of the body cover except for the neck portion is detachably connected to the seat portion and the backrest portion. Thus, the drafts can be prevented from entering from almost the whole periphery of the body cover. As means for detachable connection, a slide fastener can be used, for example.
- The seat forming member is a seat hammock mounted on a body of a baby carriage and forming a seat, for example. In this case, preferably, the body cover has slits for passing a crotch belt and a waist belt mounted on the baby carriage. According to the above constitution, the child can be seated on the body cover in the hot season without detaching the body cover. According to one embodiment, the body cover has a cut portion cut from the upper edge thereof to the slit for the crotch belt, and parts separated on either side by the cut portion are detachably connected.
