HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE BABY CRIB ARRANGED WITH A BLOCKABLE CRADLE FUNCTION

Abstract

The present invention relates to a height adjustable baby crib (2) comprising a tube stand (13) with a suspension device (8) for rockable suspension of the baby crib (2), bed bottom (4), head boards (9), bed sides (4), and an arrangement for mechanical height adjusting of the baby crib (2) in the tube stand (13) with the aid of telescopic pair-controlled gas springs (5,7) that can be exercised by a foot pedal (6). The baby crib (2) is so constructed that it could also be used as a cradle.

Claims

1. Height adjustable baby crib (2) comprising a tube stand (13) for rockable suspension of the baby crib (2), bed bottom (10), head boards (9), bed sides (4) and a device for mechanical height adjustment of the baby crib (2) in the tube stand (13) by telescopic pair-controlled gas springs (5,7) that are exercised by a foot pedal (6) or a hand lever, and that one or both bed sides (4) could be individually adjusted in height and locked into different positions, and that the baby crib (2) is equipped with a cradle lock, that could partly release the baby crib (2) from the tube stand (13) in such a way that the baby crib (2) could be used as a cradle, and that it is equipped with a blocking device that blocks the baby crib (2) from being used as a cradle, if the bed sides are not in their top position characterised in that the blocking device has the form of a cross-stroke (11) fixed to the tube stand (13), and that it is equipped with two longitudinal horizontal rollers (12) through which the bed side (4) could run up and down and locks the baby crib (2) from being rocked, if the bed side (4) is not in its top position.

EXAMPLES

[0025] The invention constitutes a height adjustable baby crib (2) comprising a tube stand (13) with a suspension device (8) for rockable suspension of the baby crib (2) in the tube stand (13), a bed bottom (10), head boards (9), bed sides (4) and telescopic pair-controlled gas springs (5,7) in the tube stand (13) of which at least one is lockable (5), and that are exercised by a foot pedal (6) when the baby crib (2) should be raised. When the baby crib (2) later should be lowered, the gas springs (5,7) are released by the foot pedal (6), and the baby crib (2) could then with low force be pressed downwards to desired height and stay there, when the foot pedal (6) is released. The gas springs (5,7) are calibrated in such a way that only a minor force is needed to raise or lower the baby crib (2) in the tube stand (13).

[0026] The tube stand (13) could be made from square tubes, why the gas springs (5,7) could be located inside the vertical parts (1) to eliminate the pinch risk.

[0027] The two bed sides (4) of the baby crib (2) are individually height adjustable and equipped with blocks, so they could be locked in low and top and in at least one more position. The blocks could be conventional sliding bolts. The bed sides (4) are further equipped with bear rings to facilitate raising and lowering.

[0028] The baby crib (2) could be used as a cradle, as it is equipped with a cradle lock (not shown), that could partly release the baby crib (2) from the tube stand (13). The cradle lock could be for instance a conventional sliding bolt, and is preferably located in the lower region of the baby crib (2)

[0029] From safety reasons the bed sides (4) must be blocked in the top position, when the baby crib (2) should be used as a cradle. This function is achieved that the tube stand (13) is equipped with a blocking equipment in the form of a cross-stroke (11) that in its other end is equipped with two longitudinal horizontal rollers (2) through which the bed side (4) could run up and down. When the bed side (4) runs through the rollers (12) the bed side (4) locks the baby crib (2) so that it cannot be rocked. When the bed side (4) is in its top position, this is loosened from the rollers (12), and the baby crib (2) could be rocked. If the bed side (4) on the opposite side of the baby crib (2) also could run up and down, a corresponding blocking equipment is placed also there.

[0030] The tube stand (13) could be equipped with swirling wheels (3) to facilitate moving of the baby crib (2) over the floor. The wheels (3) could also be lockable to make the baby crib (2) be steadily positioned on the floor.

[0031] The description shows an embodiment, but the invention is not limited by this within the scope of the following patent claims.
