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.

Apparatus forming either a play yard cover or a bassinet. The apparatus having an interior space, a plurality of clips, a first bassinet securement means, and a second bassinet securement means. The interior space bound by a padded floor assembly and four vertical walls having an inner and outer face and a mesh portion and a woven fabric portion. The clips located on the outer face of each wall woven fabric portion and are removably securable to the play yard. The first bassinet securement means located along a mid-height of the inner face of the mesh portion of each wall and the second bassinet securement means located along a periphery of the padded floor assembly. The apparatus forming a cover when the first bassinet securement means is not secured to the second bassinet securement means, and a bassinet when the first bassinet securement means is secured to the second bassinet securement means.

A foldable swing frame is provided and includes a seat assembly, a lateral support, a joint assembly and a bottom leg assembly. The lateral support is located beside the seat assembly. The seat assembly is assembled with the lateral support. The joint assembly is installed on the lateral support. The bottom leg assembly is for standing the foldable swing frame. The bottom leg assembly is assembled with the joint assembly. The bottom leg assembly is pivotally connected to the lateral support by the joint assembly, and the bottom leg assembly is switchable between a folded position and an unfolded position relative to the lateral support by the joint assembly. One or more embodiments of the foldable swing frame can be folded compactly to reduce an occupied space of the foldable swing frame without detachment of the seat assembly for easy transportation and easy storage.

An infant care apparatus includes a base. A drive mechanism and a vibratory mechanism are coupled to the base. A movable stage is movably mounted to the base. An infant support is coupled to the movable stage. The drive mechanism imparts a first cyclic motion to the movable stage, and imparts a second cyclic motion to at least part of the movable stage independent of the first cyclic motion and to the vibratory mechanism so that the vibration motor vibrates the movable stage. The infant support is coupled to the movable stage and moves cyclically in both the first and second cyclic motions. The controller is configured to move the infant support in a selectably variable motion profile with selectable vibration modes selected from different selectably variable motion profiles and selectably different vibration modes for each of the different selectable variable motion profiles.

A child containment system or playard can include a frame and soft goods panels. The frame can include a top frame assembly and one or more legs extending down therefrom in a use configuration. The legs can be pivotable with respect to the top frame assembly to a stored configuration, where the legs are substantially parallel with portions of the top frame assembly. The playard can also include top rail soft goods attached to at least a portion of the top frame assembly. A first portion of the bassinet base can be stored in a cavity of a first portion of the top rail soft goods and a second portion of the bassinet base can be stored in another cavity of a second portion of the soft goods. The first and second base portions can be coupled together when needed and stored in the cavities when not in use.

An adjustable mode child rocker can be adjusted to provide a number of different swinging/rocking motions to a child positioned within the rocker. The child rocker can include a seat assembly that can include a seat upon which a child can sit. The child rocker can also include a trolley assembly that is directly or indirectly attached to the seat assembly and can include multiple wheels near the bottom of the trolley assembly. The child rocker can also include at least one stationary track and at least one adjustable track for the wheels to move along to provide the different rocking/swinging motions to the seat assembly. The adjustable track(s) is adjustable from at least a first position to a second position to change the distance between the troughs of the respective stationary and adjustable tracks along a longitudinal axis of the child rocker and thereby changing the rocking/swinging motion.

A foldable bassinet includes an upper bassinet frame, a pair of leg structures opposite to each other, and a bottom board. Each leg structure has an upper tower portion and a lower ledge portion. The upper bassinet frame is disposed through the upper tower portion of each leg structure to make each leg structure pivotable relative to the upper bassinet frame between a supporting position and a folding position. The bottom board is detachably configured between the two lower ledge portions and defines a containing space cooperatively with the upper bassinet frame and the leg structures. When the bottom board is detached from the two lower ledge portions, the leg structures are rotatable from the supporting position to the folding position to be folded inwardly relative to the upper bassinet frame.

An infant seat includes a seat back member having an outer hub, a seat support member, a base member and a seat structure pivoted to the seat back member and the seat support member, and a locking mechanism including a slide gear and operably disposed on the seat back member. The seat support member has an inner hub pivoted to the outer hub to make the seat back member rotatably connected to the seat support member. The slide gear is transversely slidable within the outer and inner hubs for engaging with the outer and inner hubs to stop rotation of the inner hub on the outer hub. When the locking mechanism translates the slide gear to the unlocked position, the slide gear is disengaged from the outer hub to make the seat back member rotatable relative to the seat support member for adjusting a tilt angle of the seat structure.

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.

A frame is configured to rest on a support surface and an infant-receiving receptacle is supported above the support surface by the frame. The infant-receiving receptacle includes a bottom/floor panel forming a bed for the child to sleep upon and a peripheral sidewall surrounding the bottom panel and extending between the bottom panel and the frame. The bassinet includes a depth-adjustment mechanism that enables a caregiver to selectively adjust the depth of the infant-receiving receptacle by raising or lowering the bottom panel of the infant-receiving receptacle. Various embodiments can also include wheels, rollers, or other mechanisms for rolling, sliding, or gliding the bassinet across the support surface. Some embodiments include a height-adjustment mechanism, downward-recessed front wall, longitudinal-axis folding canopy, inverted-eggcrate bed pad, and/or base-positioned foot rest.
