ABSTRACT:
This multi-purpose child safety harness (10) is wearable and is used to support, hold, restrain, and protect a child (33) during a variety of the child's activities. In FIGS. 1-4, the harness (10) includes a torso band (11), a pair of shoulder straps (19, 21), an inner crotch strap (15), an outer crotch strap (16), and underarm securing straps (23, 25). The outer crotch strap is attached at the rear of the torso band and is used to secure the child to a seat (36) by looping the free end underneath the seat so as to attach it to the chest portion of the torso band thereby securing the child to the seat. The shoulder straps provide ejection protection of the child during swinging and other active pursuits. The securing straps are attached to the harness underneath each arm of the child and are terminated in means for securing the child to swing chains or ropes, and to various types of chairs, shopping carts, strollers, or other fixtures desired to safely retain the child. A stow ring (27) is attached to the rear of the torso band for stowage of ends of the securing straps and or for the attachment of a proximity tether line. An adjustable waist belt (13a-c) at the middle of the band allows for body size adjustments. At the center of the chest portion of the band is a storage pocket (12).
