Portable Crib to Support Full-Size Mattress
In general, the following disclosure is directed to a play yard (or crib) that features a foldable tubular frame configured to accept and support a full-size crib mattress and preferably surround the same with breathable mesh panels.
CRIB ACCESSORY
A pop up cover for a crib is provided for providing a safe, comfortable and isolated environment for a child in a crib. The pop-up cover may be made of breathable fabric panels having an integrated frame, for example a flexible frame, which can be folded (collapsed) on itself, for example when folded in specific ways if appropriate force is applied and which keeps the fabric in a taught, open position when unfolded (preventing the panels form falling inwards onto each other). The pop up cover can be lightweight and compact, quick and easy to set up, dark inside and breathable.
Foldable Liquid Container with Supporting Frame
A foldable liquid container includes a foldable supporting frame, a foldable container body arranged on the foldable supporting frame, and a switch device arranged on the foldable supporting frame to be operated to transform the foldable supporting frame between an unfolded mode and a folded mode in a single puling operation. The foldable container body is able to be folded with the folding of the foldable supporting frame. The foldable supporting frame is supported and secured in the unfolded mode by means of the switch device, wherein the switch device can be operated to release the engagement of the foldable supporting frame while transforming from the unfolded mode to the folded mode.
Devices and Methods to Protect Neonates During Bed-Sharing and Co-Sleeping
This disclosure provides designs for inexpensive devices that can be sturdy, pleasing to the eye, light in weight, and attractively padded, to form an enclosure around an infant or neonate that is open at its bottom. These devices protect neonates from injury during bed-sharing or co-sleeping with other individuals. These enclosures include roll-over bars to protect infants and neonates from being injured or asphyxiated by weight of a co-sleeper inadvertently moving on top of a roll-over bar. Devices can be shaped to allow for easy placement and removal of the infant, or to place the enclosure with the respective roll-over bar(s) over an infant. Roll-over bar(s) can be hinged or intercalated with pivots to deflect frame base portions when an infant body part finds itself accidentally caught under them. The rotation can be limited to an angle that still allows for the roll-over bar to be above an infant's body when frame base portion(s) are raised above the sleeping surface by the pressure and forces exerted on a roll-over bar when a co-sleeper inadvertently moves over a roll-over bar.
CRIB ACCESSORY
A pop up cover for a crib is provided for providing a safe, comfortable and isolated environment for a child in a crib. The pop-up cover may be made of breathable fabric panels having an integrated frame, for example a flexible frame, which can be folded (collapsed) on itself, for example when folded in specific ways if appropriate force is applied and which keeps the fabric in a taught, open position when unfolded (preventing the panels form falling inwards onto each other). The pop up cover can be lightweight and compact, quick and easy to set up, dark inside and breathable.
Collapsible play yard
A collapsible play yard including a structural support frame, a liner attached to the frame and one or more folding systems. The structural support frame includes an upper frame and a plurality of leg members. The proximal end of each leg member attaches to the upper frame member which is the single point of contact between the leg member and the remainder of the frame. The collapsible play yard can include a first folding system to shorten the width of the play yard and a second folding system to shorten the height of the play yard. Each folding system can be folded and unfolded independent of the other.
Convertible Bed and Suitcase Apparatus
A convertible bed and suitcase apparatus includes a first enclosure and a second enclosure, each surrounding respective first and second partial cavities; wherein each of the first and second enclosures are joined at respective proximal ends; a raised perimeter lip extending along the distal end and the first and second sides; the first and second enclosures being selectively operable between an open configuration and a closed configuration; first and second exterior fasteners each including a first exterior attachment member for securing the first and second enclosures in the closed configuration; and the first enclosure including first and second interior fasteners for securing the first and second enclosures in the open configuration.
PLAY YARD
A play yard can be locked in an unfolded position via a latch mechanism or unlocked by the latch mechanism to fold to a folded position, by means of lifting a central member and bringing the rail members, the upper support members, the lower support members, and the connecting members to rotate toward the center of the play yard. A spring-loaded engaging member disposed on the rail member can have engagement with the bracket so that the play yard can be stably retained in the folded position. When the engaging member is operated to disengage from the bracket, the rail members, the upper support members, the lower support members, and the connecting members rotate away from the center of the play yard all the way to the unfolded position until the connecting members can be locked by the latch mechanism, which retains the play yard in the unfolded position.
Portable and collapsible device and methods
Disclosed is a collapsible device which can provide at least partial containment for one or more objects, including a child or animal, and which can collapse or fold into a compact configuration in order to allow for improved portability of the collapsible device. In some implementations, the collapsible device can include a collapsible frame and at least one flexible material component that can be reversibly secured to the collapsible frame. In addition, some implementations can include a foldable base or at least one adaptable feature.
Infant playpen
An infant playpen includes a support frame including a pivot connection, and an enclosure installable on the support frame, the enclosure comprising a flexible material including an expandable portion having multiple folds, the expandable portion covering the pivot connection when the enclosure is installed on the support frame. In some embodiments, the enclosure may have a sidewall including an inner layer and an outer layer, the support frame extending through a hollow interior between the inner layer and the outer layer when the enclosure is installed on the support frame.
