Patent ID: 8403189

Claim:
A baby carrier comprising a harness and a harness-carried front piece which forms a baby-carrying pouch, the front piece including two laterally separated parts at a variable spacing relative to one another, the laterally separated parts of the front piece being laterally separated by a distance and mutually connected to a strip-like piece of material having a lateral stretchability that is substantially greater than the lateral stretchability of the separated parts of the front piece, the strip-like piece of material having a uniform unstretched width over an entire length thereof, the unstretched width being a lateral dimension of the strip-like piece of material equal to said distance, the width between the laterally separated parts of the front piece defined by the strip-like piece of material being not less than the unstretched width of said strip-like piece of material independently of a force exerted by a carried baby on the front piece.
