Abstract:
1. A carrying device for a baby or small child, comprising: a retaining harness system having two shoulder straps each being a part of a separate loop and each having an end, an accommodating element, and a connection device continuously adjustably connecting said accommodating element to said retaining harness system; said end of each shoulder strap being connected to said connection device to form said separate loops; each loop of said retaining harness system being provided with an adjustment means for varying a length of the loop; said accommodating element defining an accommodating space for accommodating the baby or small child to be carried; said accommodating element having at least one end region with a variable length projecting beyond said connection device; said accommodating space being size-adjustable to a size of the baby or small child to be carried, and said harness system being size-adjustable to a size of a person carrying the carrying device independently of an adjustment of said accommodating space by adjusting said loop; wherein, when a size of said accommodating space is to be adapted to a greater size of the baby or small child to be carried, a partial length of said projecting length of said end region of said accommodating element is withdrawn through said connection device to increase a surface area with which said accommodating element wraps around and supports the baby or small child while a formation of a gap between said harness system and said accommodating element is avoided; and wherein, when the size of said accommodating space is to be adapted to a smaller size of the baby or small child to be carried, a partial length of said projecting length of said end region of said accommodating element is drawn out of said connection device to tighten said surface area with which said accommodating element wraps around and supports the baby or small child; and wherein said connection device includes at least one connection means that fixes said variable length of said accommodating element.
