The child car seat simulates the motions and sounds of a car seat being driven over a road in order to comfort and soothe an infant and to induce the infant to sleep. An infant may be placed on padding attached to the top interior of the seat body and restrained by a left blanket half and a right blanket half. A motion mechanism located in the base of the seat body may cause movement of the child care seat that resembles the movement that a car seat would experience in a moving vehicle. One or more speakers located within the shell of the seat body may play an audio program to simulate vehicular and traffic noises. The intensity and type of movement and the volume and specific audio program may be selected from controls located on the upper rear of the seat body.

An infant calming/sleep-aid/SIDS detection device is provided that includes a main moving platform that moves in a variable manner with accompanying variable sound generation, the sound and motion adapted to calm a fussy baby, induce sleep, and maintain sleep under normal conditions. The device may also have a sensor for detection of pauses in breathing and/or detection of resultant biological changes related to breathing pauses and respond with appropriate stimuli to arouse the baby and allow breathing to recommence.

A self-rocking baby crib that is highly mobile throughout a hospital that produces a motion that is smooth and relatively quiet. The self-rocking baby crib includes a wire coupling allow for smooth electrical current flow, insulation and protection of wires, and wire organization. The self-rocking baby crib includes a base include a pair of raised bars, a pair of handles, and a plurality of apertures. The pair of raised bars disposed on each side of the base. The pair of handles are disposed between the side edge of the base and the pair of raised bars and are a pair of cutout handles. The self-rocking baby crib also includes power source include a power knob and a voltage digital display to display the volage to the self-rocking baby crib.

Disclosed is a swinging drive control apparatus, including a controller and a motor, where the controller detects a counter-electromotive force of the motor and drives the motor according to the detection result. Also disclosed is a corresponding method, including: measuring a counter-electromotive force of a motor in a previous cycle; and comparing a maximum counter-electromotive force value with a preset value, and calculating a PWM pulse duty factor in a next cycle. By directly detecting the counter-electromotive force of the motor without using a sensor, the present invention implements swinging frequency and phase tracking as well as swinging amplitude control, and simplifies a control system.

A human support structure has: at least one support against which at least one part of a human body is borne; a base; a first motion transmitting assembly having first and second link members joined to each other and two components for pivoting movement around separate axes and defining a first unit; and a second motion transmitting assembly having third and fourth link members and two components joined together for pivoting movement around separate axes and defining a second unit. The first and second motion transmitting assemblies guide relative movement between the at least one support and the base. The first and second units can be selectively repositioned to change how relative movement between the at least one support and base is guided.

The present invention provides an infant comfort system using artificial intelligence and micro-vibration and a method for controlling the same, the system including a bouncer seat on which an infant can be laid prone in a bouncer to allow the infant to have a stable resting posture similar to that in his/her mother's womb, in contrast to a conventional bouncer on which an infant is laid supine, thereby making the infant feel stable and comfort and thus easily making the infant stop crying.

A removable pendulum-operated swing mechanism, specifically a mechanism to swing a smaller object about a first axis to induce a larger object to swing about a second axis. The mechanism uses the mass of the relatively light-weight, smaller object to swing the larger object into a pendulum-swinging motion.

An auto-rocking rocker that converts from an infant sleeper to a toddler seat. The convertible rocker comprises a support section that has a concave portion for receiving a child, a frame assembly coupled to the support section, and an auto-rocking mechanism coupled to the frame assembly. The auto-rocking mechanism is configured to be operable while the convertible rocker is in the infant sleeper configuration and inoperable while the convertible rocker is in the toddler seat configuration.

A generic system for enabling resonant oscillations along multiple axes includes a load and an actuator. The load represents a mass or structure that is desired to be oscillated, and is subject to a restoring force by suitable mechanisms upon displacement of the load. The actuator is designed to rotate an eccentric mass about a first axis. Responsive to the rotation of the eccentric mass, the actuator is designed to cause the load to oscillate in the direction of each of a second axis and a third axis.
