Abstract: A folding baby carriage comprises a pair of seating surface supporting side bars extending back and forth along both sides of a seating surface in order to support the seating surface from beneath. Each seating surface supporting side bar has a rigid inward extending portion extending toward the inside so as to support the seating surface from beneath, at a rear portion thereof. The inward extending portion is formed by bending a rear end portion of the seating surface supporting side bar toward the inside.

Abstract: Between a user wear member and a baby holding member of a baby carrier, provided are: first connection means for enabling lateral hold of a baby that is laid down, using the baby holding member on the front side of a mother; second connection means for enabling front side vertical hold of the baby in an upright posture, using the baby holding member on the front side of the mother; and third connection means for enabling back side vertical hold of the baby in an upright posture, using the baby holding member on the back of the mother. In this manner, the baby carrier with a structure implementing lateral hold, i.e. a state in which a newborn or a baby of which neck or lower body is not stable is held laid-down, front side vertical hold, and back side vertical hold, can be provided.

Abstract: A seat core continuously comprises a backrest surface portion supporting a back of a child from behind, a seating surface portion supporting buttocks of the child from beneath, a leg-supporting surface portion supporting legs of the child in a state of bed, a first hinge portion positioned between the backrest surface portion and the seating surface portion, and a second hinge portion positioned between the seating surface portion and the leg-supporting surface portion.

Abstract: A neonate dummy make it possible to sense or measure a movement of the head of a neonate, the values of impacts applied to the thoracic part and the abdominal part (including the lumbar part) of the neonate, and the value or magnitude of the effect on the cervical vertebrae, as well as to clarify the mechanism of cervical disorder resulting from an impact in a car crash or the like. This neonate dummy includes a head part, a body part (including a lumbar part), arm parts and leg parts. A bar-shaped backbone member corresponding to the backbone of a neonate is provided in the body part (including a lumbar part), and a neck part is formed on an upper region of the backbone member. A triaxial acceleration sensor is provided on the centroidal position of the head part.

Abstract: A baby's play gym for supporting suspended toys can be reconfigured to form a magazine rack or a chair. The play gym includes upwardly convex arcuate first and second side supports arranged laterally opposite one another with a spacing distance therebetween. First and second hanger bars coupling the first and second side supports with each other for hanging toys thereon extend between upper portions of the first and second side supports. Third and fourth hanger bars for hanging other toys extend between lower portions of the first and second side supports. When reconfigured as a magazine rack or a chair, a strip member is supported from at least two of the hanger bars to form a sling trough to support books and magazines or a sling seat to support a person, while the play members are removed and some of the hanger bars may be removed.

Abstract: A childcare instrument or baby carriage has a core member contained removably in a bag placed on the rear side of the carriage, and the core member includes a first plate member and a second plate member arranged to overlap each other. The first plate member has first apertures piercing therethrough in the direction of thickness. The second plate member has second apertures piercing therethrough in the direction of thickness, and the second plate member is relatively displaceable between a first position to align the first apertures with the second apertures and a second position to displace the first apertures from the second apertures. The childcare instrument thus provided is accordingly capable of adjusting the degree of breathing.

Abstract: A folding baby carriage comprises an open-state locking member 4 which locks an open state of a baby carriage by engaging with a reversing member 3, an operating member 6 which moves the open-state locking member to release a lock of the baby carriage, and a stopper 10 which is rotatably supported by a handrail member 7 and directly abuts on the open-state locking member 4 so as to prohibit movement of the open-state locking member 4. When the baby carriage is changed to a closed state, it is necessary to turn the stopper provided so as to be operationally and positionally separate from the operating member 6 first and then, in this state continuously operate the operating member.

Abstract: A baby carriage comprises longitudinal side frame members, a backrest sheet portion, a head protection part positioned at an upper end region of the backrest sheet portion, a backside support connected to the longitudinal side frame member to reclinably support the backrest sheet portion from a backside, and a guard member of a rigid structure having an inverted U shape as a whole. The guard member has both ends rotatably connected to the longitudinal side frame members and a central portion extending in the width direction and positioned along a back surface of the head protection part in both forms of a chair state and a bed state.

Abstract: A neonate dummy enabling grasp of a movement of the head of a neonate, the values of impacts applied to the thoracic part and the abdominal part (including the lumbar part) and the value of affection on the cervical vertebrae as well as clarification of the mechanism of cervical disorder resulting from an impact in a car crash or the like is provided. This neonate dummy comprises a head part, a body part (including a lumbar part), arm parts and leg parts. A bar-shaped backbone member corresponding to the backbone of a neonate is provided in the body part (including a lumbar part), and a neck part is formed on an upper region of the backbone member. A triaxial acceleration sensor is provided on the centroidal position of the head part.

Abstract: In this nursery instrument, a selection plate (100) is fixed to a reinforcing plate (29) with a pin (110), to be slidable through a slot (125e). A through hole (125a, 125b, 125c) has the same bore diameter as an engaging hole (25a, 25b, 25c), and a through hole (125d) consists of a slot having a length substantially twice that of an engaging hole (25d) in a sliding direction. According to this mechanism, only a bed state can be selected up to a lapse of a constant time after birth of a baby. Thus, a nursery instrument capable of protecting respiration of the baby can be provided on the basis of medical criteria for the baby.
