Publication number: 20160296032Abstract: Steps for using an insert to restore sagging sofa cushions are provided. Over time, the cushion develops a depression on a sitting surface of a deformable member and an elevation on a base surface of the deformable member. The cushion also suffers from reduced elasticity in the deformable member. Positioning the insert between a cushion casing and deformable member of the cushion allows for sagging areas of the cushion to be fixed. The cushion restoring insert thus addresses both aforementioned issues. An elongated elastic member with similar elasticity to the original cushion provides a like-new level of elasticity for the cushion. The cushion restoring insert also increases volume within the cushion casing, causing tension in combination with the cushion casing. This tension counteracts the depression and elevation, helping to return the cushion to a like new state.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2015Publication date: October 13, 2016Inventors: Belinda A.

Publication number: 20160296034Abstract: A child carrier harness that is adjustable to fit a wide range of child sizes yet is easy to use and comfortable for both the child and the wearer. The harness includes a running line for encircling a child's torso. A loop is disposed at one end of the running line. The opposite end of the running line may be fed through this loop to create a child tethering area for encircling a child's torso. The end of the running line opposite the loop is joined to the child carrier. The child tethering area can therefore tether the child (e.g., to the child carrier and thus the wearer) without encumbering the child's shoulders, arms, or legs or affecting the child's position within the child carrier. Additionally, adjustment of the running line allows the harness to fit a wide range of child sizes. A waist belt anchor portion may be used to provide the corresponding attachment point on carriers not provided with one.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 8, 2016Publication date: October 13, 2016Inventor: Rodney V.

Publication number: 20160296036Abstract: A crib design with built-in padded, protective coverings for the rails (spindles), endwalls, and exposed connecting crib frame designed to avoid injury to babies from hard cribs and dangerous bumpers. The protective padding is sewn around the frame of the individual rails, endwalls, and connectors to create permanent, anchored breathable bumpers without hazardous zippers, ties, or velcro. The outer layer of the padding wipes clean, and can be manufactured in any color or pattern. The enhanced safety features of this crib make it safer than traditional cribs, cribs with traditional bumpers, or cribs with attached vertical bumpers. This invention provides a built-in element of safety from the moment the child is born and eliminates the need for any additional safety mechanisms.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 8, 2016Publication date: October 13, 2016Inventors: Nira Moskowitz, Eve Moskowitz-Parness
