Description

Children's walking walker.

Object of the invention

The present invention, as indicated in the title, refers to a walker created to be used by children that are in the age to learn to walk, that is, approximately between 8 and 16 months.

The object of this invention is to provide a solution hitherto unknown for several inconveniences that will comment later, mainly, it is intended to achieve a final result that prevents displacement semi-sitting of the child that can bring as consequently the arching of the legs.

In turn, the invention keeps the child in a controlled area, helping you develop the necessary skills to Learn to walk correctly.

The device in question provides essential novelty characteristics and notable advantages over means known and used for the same purposes in the state Current technique.

Currently, traditional walkers they have an annular body, conveniently raised with with respect to the ground, through a structure topped in a second ring generally larger in diameter than the upper body, for provide the walker with due stability, lower ring provided of wheels, generally self-orientating that allow the child to drag the walker by acting with his feet in the ground. The upper annular body is provided with a seat usually of canvas or similar, that leaves the child's legs free for the use of the walker, being frequent also that in said annular body entertainment means are established for the child, such as a steering wheel, rattles, removable parts of colors, etc.

These walkers, although they fulfill the function for which have been foreseen, present as a fundamental problem the lacking a system that limits travel space, forcing parents or caregivers to be constantly aware of the child to prevent it from moving beyond the area that is consider safe. In addition, not being bound by a guide, they do not encourage the child to walk forward and exercise his balance in a way natural, coordinating arms and legs, leaning only when needs to. And perhaps, more importantly, the walkers traditional usually produce the arching of the legs of the Child due to the way of displacement.

The walker that the invention proposes resolves of the problem was fully satisfactory before exposed, providing a series of advantageous and innovative characteristics, and without implying any loss of any of its benefits in other aspects.

The proposed invention aims to provide a practical, economical, ecological and simple solution, whose effect it would be a more adequate and comfortable control of the child, thus avoiding possible dangers, helping you learn to walk straight and naturally, while giving you freedom of movement within of a controlled and safe area.

The patent object of this invention has its field of application in the sector of children's devices, and more specifically in the one of the infantile walkers.

Background of the invention

In the state of the art we find some documents related to the invention in question, although none of them provides the same advantageous characteristics nor solves Effectively existing inconveniences.

Thus, in document ES 1 061 766 we find a infant walker, of the type constituted by a body annular upper endowed with a seat or similar that allows the passage to through the child's legs, annular body that relates through an intermediate structure with a lower support ring on the ground through self-orientating wheels or similar, characterized in that on the underside of said ring bottom, at least one height adjustable leg is set, of so that said leg is likely to be raised with with respect to the plane of support of the wheels on the ground, resulting inoperative, or protruding downward with respect to said plane lifting part of the walker's wheels off the ground and immobilizing to the latter. While the use of a brake for walkers It can be useful, it has the disadvantage that it would immobilize completely to the child, and if the brake is not applied, it could move without any limitation brought by the device walker. However, with the proposed invention it is possible to limit the range of travel without stopping completely.

On the other hand, in document ES 1 065 325 provides a walking stick for babies, of the type intended for Become an element of help and support for the first steps of babies, approximately seven to fourteen months old, guided by an adult, in his transition from the crawl to the march upright, characterized by understanding a cane with double handlebar, one lower for the child to take and another higher handlebar for adult guidance, arranging in your bottom of a double wheel in contact with the ground. Presents the inconvenience of needing adult guidance at all times, subtracting this comfort and freedom. The proposed invention does not requires the continued assistance of an adult.

In turn, in document ES 1 062 230 claims a folding and movable cradle-park, which it comprises an upper frame and a lower frame that supports a base, between which flexible walls extend and related through at least one folding, articulated blade upper and lower than the respective frames, characterized because the lower frame incorporates in its previous part at least one pair of wheels and at the back at least a couple of feet of support for. Like the previous inventions and unlike the proposed invention, this document also does not resolve the inconveniences raised.

So we see, that until now no one was known walker that by its novel characteristics solve the drawbacks mentioned above both in terms of documents cited as other inventions or walkers traditional found in the state of the art.

Taking into consideration the cases mentioned and analyzed the conjugate arguments, with the invention that proposed in this document results in a final result in which significant differentiating aspects are provided vis-à-vis the state of the current technique, and where a series of advances in the elements already known with their corresponding advantages.

In particular:

-

With this system the child learns to stand upright while walk alone, thus avoiding possible deformities and exercising in a correct way of walking.

-

Be manages to limit the extent of the child's displacement by allowing develop your own balance, coordinating legs and arms of natural way

-

Is a safe system because it is fixed on the ground, which facilitates considerably surveillance of the baby by the adult.

-

Detachable, which facilitates your transport and storage, it is economical and ecological.

Description of the invention

Thus, the present invention is constituted to from the following elements:

Two extendable, parallel, separate bars each other about 35 cm. approximately, placed horizontally at an approximate height of 40 cm., and supported by legs jointly attached to the ends of the bars, and presenting in that union some end of career stops. The bars act as guide rails for a rectangular board that is placed horizontally between them, said board being attached to the bars by appropriate displacement means found in the sides of it. The board presents in its central zone a circular hole of approximately 19 cm. diameter.

The operation is simple: the child is placed standing, in the hollow of the board, which separates and joins longitudinally, serving as support for the abdomen and whose gap has enough slack so that with the momentum natural, the child moves on the guides, turning on himself to change the direction of travel, in safe conditions. In traditional media the child is sitting what can cause a bowing of the legs, possibility that is ruled out in this case.

In a different embodiment, the ends of the bars are equipped with vertical toy hangers That attract the baby.

In another embodiment, the legs are adjustable in height, and all parts are easily removable.
