For those ordinary skills in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0039] Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 shows a schematic structural view of a baby crib in an embodiment of the present disclosure. An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a baby crib, which at least includes a crib frame 10, a mattress 20 and a support component 30. The baby crib according to the present disclosure can address the problem that a child easily feels uncomfortable when climbing onto or climbing down from a mattress.
[0040] The crib frame 10 includes support feet 11. The support feet 11 are in contact with a support plane 100 so as to allow the crib frame 10 to stably rest on the support plane 100. The support plane 100 may be the ground, a bed surface or other flat surfaces. In some embodiments, the support plane 100 is a flat surface as shown in FIGS. 7 to 8B, so that the crib frame 10 can be more easily kept in a stable state when placed on the support plane 100.
[0041] The mattress 20 is arranged on the crib frame 10. The child can rest or play on the mattress 20. A top surface of the mattress 20 configured to support a child is higher than the support plane 100, which can keep the child relatively distanced from the support plane 100, providing a cleaner playing or resting environment for the child.
[0042] The support component 30 is connected to an edge side of the mattress 20. The support component 30 includes a connection side 31, an abutting side 32, and a guide portion 33 arranged between the abutting side 32 and the connection side 31. The connection side 31 is connected to the mattress 20. The abutting side 32 is arranged opposed to the connection side 31. The support component 30 has a use state and a non-use state. When the support component 30 is in the use state, the guide portion 33 is inclined relative to the support plane 100, and the height of the connection side 31 relative to the support plane 100 is higher than the height of the abutting side 32 relative to the support plane 100. In this way, the child can climb onto the inclined guide portion 33 from the lower abutting side 32, and reach the higher connection side 31, and then climb onto the mattress 20. Due to the existence of the inclined support component 30, the process of the child climbing from the support plane 100 to the mattress 20 or climbing down from the mattress 20 is relatively smooth, and the child is less likely to be impeded, injured or fall over. Optionally, when the support component 30 is in the non-use state, the support component 30 can be stored under the mattress 20, so that the support component can be properly stored without affecting the normal use of the baby crib, and there is no need to worry about the support component 30 being lost.
[0043] The baby crib described in the present disclosure is additionally provided with the support component 30, and the guide portion 33 can form a slope between the support plane 100 and the top surface of the mattress 20, so that the child does not need to climb over a step surface formed by the side surface and the top surfaces of the mattress 20, thereby preventing the child from being impeded, injured or falling over. Moreover, when the support component 30 is not needed, the support component 30 can be stored under the mattress 20, so that the support component 30 can be properly stored and prevented from being lost.
[0044] The description of the baby crib according to the present disclosure is given below by taking a flat ground as an example of the support plane 100.
[0045] Specifically, referring to FIG. 2, the crib frame 10 includes four upright columns 12, a support frame 13 connected to the bottom of each of the four columns 12, and an upper frame 14 connected to the top of each of the columns 12. The bottom of each column 12 is provided with the support foot 11. The support foot 11 is supported on the support plane 100 to prevent slipping. Each support foot 11 has a connection hole for installing the support frame 13. In some embodiments, the support frame 13 is roughly in an X shape, and each of four ends of the support frame 13 is inserted into the respective connection hole to achieve connection. In conjunction with FIG. 1, it can be seen that the mattress 20 is arranged on the top surface of the support frame 13. The support frame 13 in the X shape can increase its supporting area for the mattress 20, so that the mattress 20 can be more stably arranged on the support frame 13. The upper frame 14 includes four connecting rod groups. The four connecting rod groups are arranged in a quadrilateral configuration, which can improve the structural stability of the entire crib frame 10.
[0046] The bottom surface of the mattress 20 is higher than the support plane 100, which can reduce the contact between the mattress 20 and the dust on the support plane 100, and can also prevent the mattress 20 from being dampened by the moisture on the support plane 100. When the support component 30 is fully unfolded, it is nearly rectangular, and the connection side 31 located at one side edge of the support component 30 is connected to the mattress 20. The support component 30 can be switched between the use state and the non-use state. When the support component 30 is in the use state, as shown in FIG. 1, the guide portion 33 is inclined relative to the support plane 100 (for example, a horizontal plane), and the height of the abutting side 32 adjacent to the support plane 100 is lower than the height of the connection side 31, so that it is convenient for the child to climb onto the mattress 20 from the support plane 100 along the guide portion 33, or climb down from the mattress 20 onto the support plane 100 via the support component 30, thereby reducing the risk of falling over. In some embodiments, the mattress 20 is a common rectangular mattress. In other embodiments, the mattress 20 can also be in other shapes, such as a pentagon, a hexagon, etc., which are not limited in this application.
[0047] The guide portion 33 may be a part of the support component 30 itself, or may be a plate-shaped, groove-shaped or cylindrical member connected to the surface of the support component 30, which is not limited herein.
[0048] In some embodiments, the support component 30 includes a first support member 301. The first support member 301 forms the guide portion 33. A first end 3011 of the first support member 301 forms the connection side 31, and a second end 3012 of the first support member 301 forms the abutting side 32.
[0049] Specifically, referring to FIG. 1, the first support member 301 is approximately rectangular. One of side edges of the first support member 301 is connected to the mattress 20, and is referred to as the first end 3011, and another of the side edges (for example, a long side edge) of the first support member 301 is the second end 3012. When the support component 30 is in the use state, the second end 3012 abuts against the support plane 100, so that the guide portion 33 is inclined relative to the support plane 100. It should be particularly noted that the first support member 301 is in a foldable connection with the mattress 20. Specifically, the first support member 301 is in a foldable connection with the mattress 20 by the first end 3011. When the support component 30 needs to be switched from the use state to the non-use state, the second end 3012 of the first support member 301 can be folded towards the bottom surface of the mattress 20 until the first support member 30 is stored on the side of the mattress 20 proximate to the support plane 100. Alternatively, the first support member 301 is detachably connected to the mattress 20. Specifically, the first support member 301 is detachably connected to the mattress 20 via the first end 3011. When the support component 30 needs to be switched from the use state to the non-use state, the first support member 301 can be removed from the mattress 20 and stored on the side of the mattress 20 proximate to the support plane 100.
[0050] In some other embodiments, the support component 30 includes at least three support members. Referring to FIGS. 3 to 6, the support component 30 may include the first support member 301, a second support member 302, and a third support member 303. The first support member 301, the second support member 302, and the third support member 303 are connected in sequence and can be folded relative to each other. That is, the first support member 301, the second support member 302, and the third support member 303 are connected side by side in sequence. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, the first support member 301 has the first end 3011 and the second end 3012 that are oppositely arranged. The second support member 302 has a third end 3021 and a fourth end 3022 that are oppositely arranged. The third support member 303 has a fifth end 3031 and a sixth end 3032 that are oppositely arranged. The first support member 301 is connected to the mattress 20 via the first end 3011, the second end 3012 is connected to the third end 3021, and the fourth end 3022 is connected to the fifth end 3031. When the support component 30 is fully unfolded as shown in FIG. 5, the sixth end 3032 is located at the side of the entire support component 30 that is farthest from the mattress 20.
[0051] One of the two adjacent support members can be folded relative to another of the two adjacent support members, so that the angle between the two adjacent support members can be changed in magnitude. When the support component 30 needs to be switched to the use state, the third support member 303 is folded around the connection between the fourth end 3022 and the fifth end 3031, so that an angle is formed between the second support member 302 and the third support member 303, and then the second support member 302 is folded around the connection between the second end 3012 and the third end 3021, so that an angle is also formed between the first support member 301 and the second support member 302. In the present disclosure, the relative folding order of the three support members is not limited to herein, and it can also be that the second support member 302 is folded relative to the first support member 301 first, and then the third support member 303 is folded relative to the second support member 302. In this case, the sixth end 3032 of the third support member 303 is connected to or abuts against the underside of the first support member 301, and the three support members approximately form a triangular prism structure, as shown in FIG. 4. It should be noted that the three sides of the triangular prism structure can be formed by only a part of the three support members. For example, the sixth end 3032 of the third support member 303 may be connected to or abut against a non-edge position (such as a middle part) of a lower surface of the first support member 301. In this case, one of the three sides of the triangular prism structure is formed by only a part of the lower surface of the first support member 301. The second support member 302 rests against the support plane 100. An outer side surface of the first support member 301 forms a slope connecting the support plane 100 and the mattress 20 to guide a child such as a baby to climb from the support plane 100 to the mattress 20 along the slope, or to climb down from the mattress 20 to the support plane 100 along the slope. When the child climbs into the baby crib through the support component 30, the support component 30 with a triangular prism structure is extremely stable and not easy to deform, and the child can feel comfortable when climbing. In some embodiments, the guide portion 33 is formed by the first support member 301.
[0052] Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, when the support component 30 is in the use state, among the three support members, the second support member 302 abuts against the support plane 100, which can further improve the structural stability of the support component 30, and can allow the support component 30 to still maintain a small deformation even after the child climbs on it for many times. Optionally, when the support component 30 is in the use state, the second end 3012 of the first support member 301 abuts against the support plane 100.
[0053] Specifically, referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, in some embodiment, the support component 30 includes an outer layer 34 made of a soft material and a hard sheet (not shown) as an inner lining. Each support member has a pocket structure for accommodating the hard sheet. Placing the hard sheet in the outer layer 34 made of a soft material not only ensures that the surface of the guide portion 33 is skin-friendly and can protect the baby's skin, but also improves the strength of the support component 30 and reduces the deformation amount when the child climbs and exerts a force. On the other hand, after the hard sheet is removed, the support component 30 is easy to clean and keep hygienic. A crease portion 35 is provided between adjacent ends of two adjacent support members, so that the two support members can be folded towards each other. Specifically, the outer layer 34 of the first support member 301, the outer layer 34 of the second support member 302, and the outer layer 34 of the third support member 303 can be provided as a whole, and the crease portion 35 may be a sewing line, and the outer layers 34 can be folded relative to the sewing line. In other embodiments, the crease portion 35 can also be made of a soft material such as silicone and rubber. The hard sheet can be a corrugated board or a polyethylene (PE) board, among others, which can ensure that the three support members have sufficient rigidity to maintain an inclined state when in the use state, without causing discomfort to the child's hands and legs due to excessive hardness of the material.
[0054] Further, in some embodiments, the third support member 303 is provided with a first connecting element 3033. The first support member 301 is provided with a second connecting element 21. The first connecting element 3033 is configured to be connected to the second connecting element 21 so that the first support member 301 and the third support member 303 are fixedly connected to each other.
[0055] For example, referring to FIGS. 3 and 7, the first connecting element 3033 and the second connecting element 21 are of zipper structures. The first connecting element 3033 includes a first zipper tooth (first zipper end). The first zipper tooth is located at the sixth end 3032. The second connecting element 21 includes a second zipper tooth (second zipper end). The second zipper tooth is arranged at a side edge of the first support member 301 adjacent to the mattress 20, and is located near the first end 3011. When the support component 30 is in the use state, that is, when the first support member 301, the second support member 302 and the third support member 303 are folded to form an approximately triangular prism structure, the sixth end 3032 is located below the mattress 20 and near the side edge of the first support member 301 adjacent to the mattress 20. The first zipper tooth and the second zipper tooth are engaged with each other to form a zipper structure, so that the third support member 303 can be fixedly connected to the first support member 301, thereby further reinforcing the triangular prism structure and improving the structural stability of the support component 30 when in the use state. It can be understood that the second connecting element 21 can also be arranged at other positions of the first supporting member 301, such as approximately the middle position, which can also play a role in improving the structural stability of the support component 30. It can be also understood that the first connecting element 3033 and the second connecting element 21 are not limited to zipper structures, and can also be connecting elements in the form of Velcro, etc., which is not limited in the present disclosure.
[0056] In some embodiments, a stopper 36 is provided at the underside of the first support member 301. As shown in FIG. 8A, when the support component 30 is in the use state, the cross section of the triangular prism structure formed by the three support members may be in a shape of an obtuse triangle. The stopper 36 is located on the side of the first support member 301 facing the support plane 100. It can be understood that the third support member 303 abuts against the stopper 36 due to its tendency to lie flat on the support plane 100 under the action of gravity. The stopper 36 can prevent the third support member 303 from falling over towards the support plane 100, and apply a stopping force to the third support member 303, thereby improving the structural stability of the support component 30. The applicable situation of the stopper 36 is not limited to the case where the cross section of the triangular prism formed by the three support members is in the shape of an obtuse triangle. For example, when the three support members form a triangular prism with a cross section approximately in the shape of a right triangle (as shown in FIG. 8B) or an acute triangle, the stopper 36 can also apply a stopping force to the third support member 303 to improve the structural stability of the support component 30. It can be understood that two stoppers 36 can also be provided. When the support component 30 is in the use state, the sixth end 3032 of the third support member 303 can be clamped between the two stoppers 36, which also plays a role in improving the structural stability of the support component 30. In other embodiments, the stopper 36 can be formed as a groove at the underside of the first support member 301. When the support component 30 is in the use state, the sixth end 3032 of the third support member 303 can be engaged in the groove, which also plays a role in improving the structural stability of the support component 30.
[0057] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 8B, when the support component 30 is in the use state, the plane where the third support member 303 is located is perpendicular to the plane where the first support member 301 is located, that is, the cross section of the triangular prism structure formed by the first support member 301, the second support member 302 and the third support member 303 is in a shape of a right triangle. In this case, the third support member 303 provides a stronger support for the first support member 301, such triangular prism structure has a higher stability. In this case, the deformation of the support component 30 is smaller when the child climbs on the support component 30, the structure is more stable, and the use experience of the child is improved.
[0058] In some embodiments, the height of the mattress 20 relative to the support plane 100 is defined as H, the length from the first end 3031 to the second end 3032 of the first support member 301 is defined as L1, the length from the third end 3021 to the fourth end 3022 of the second support member 302 is defined as L2, and the length from the fifth end 3031 to the sixth end 3032 of the third support member 303 is defined as L3. Referring to FIG. 8B, in some embodiments, L1>H, as such, the length of the first support member 301 is greater than the height of the mattress 20, so that the first support member 301 forms a stable inclined guiding structure. In some embodiments, L3H*L2/L1, as such, the length of the third support member 303 is sufficient to make the third support member 303 be connected to or abut against the underside of the first support member 301, ensuring that the three support members form a triangular prism structure after being folded, so that the support component 30 can be stably arranged between the mattress 20 and the support plane 100, and stably play a role in guiding the child to climb.
[0059] In some embodiments, the support component 30 is provided with a third connecting element 37, and the bottom of the mattress 20 is provided with a fourth connecting element 22. The third connecting element 37 can be connected to the fourth connecting element 22, so that the support component 30 is stored at the bottom of the mattress 20. Referring to FIGS. 5, 6 and 9, exemplarily, the third connecting element 37 is disposed on the second support member 302. When the support component 30 is in the use state, the third connecting element 37 is located on the side of the second support member 302 that abuts against the support plane 100, that is, located on the outer surface of the triangular prism structure formed by the three support members. The fourth connecting element 22 is disposed on the mattress 20 and is located on the bottom side of the mattress 20, that is, the side of the mattress 20 facing the support plane 100. When the support component 30 needs to be switched to the non-use state, referring to FIGS. 5 and 9, with the support component 30 fully unfolded as an example for illustration: first, the third support member 303 is folded so that the sixth end 3032 is proximate to the connection between the second end 3012 and the third end 3021, and then the second support member 302 is folded relative to the first support member 301, that is, the connection between the fourth end 3022 and the fifth end 3031 is proximate to the first end 3011, as shown in FIG. 9. After the folding, the third connecting element 37 is approximately located in the same plane as the bottom side of the mattress 20. Then, the entire support component 30 is folded again towards the bottom of the mattress 20 by the first end 3011 of the first support member 301, so that the third connecting element 37 is connected to the fourth connecting element 22, and the support component 30 can be stored at the bottom of the mattress 20, reducing the occupied area and optimizing the arrangement of the support component 30 in the non-use state.
[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, the third connecting element 37 and the fourth connecting element 22 are respectively a hook side of Velcro and a loop side of Velcro. The Velcro is easy for adhesion and has a long service life, and is convenient for fixing the support component 30 on the bottom side of the mattress 20; on the other hand, the hook side of Velcro and the loop side of Velcro are easy to be separated from each other, so that the support component 30 can be quickly taken out to switch to the use state. In other embodiments, the third connecting element 37 and the fourth connecting element 22 can be also in other forms of connecting members, such as buttons, snaps, etc.
[0061] In addition, in the second embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to FIGS. 13 and 14, the support component 30 includes four support members. That is, the support component 30 includes the first support member 301, the second support member 302, the third support member 303 and a fourth support member 304. The four support members are connected in sequence and can be folded relative to each other. That is, the first support member 301, the second support member 302, the third support member 303 and the fourth support member 304 are connected in sequence side by side. The fourth support member 304 has a seventh end 3041 and an eighth end 3042 that are arranged oppositely. The fourth support member 304 is connected to the third support member 303 by the seventh end 3041. When the support component 30 is fully unfolded as shown in FIG. 13, the eighth end 3042 is located at the side of the entire support component 30 that is farthest from the mattress 20.
[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, similar to the above-mentioned embodiment where the support component 30 includes three support members, the support component 30 may also include an outer layer 34 made of a soft material and a hard sheet (not shown) as an inner lining. Specifically, the outer layers 34 of the first support member 301, the outer layers 34 of the second support member 302, the outer layers 34 of the third support member 303 and the outer layers 34 of the fourth support member 304 can be integrally arranged, and the crease portion 35 is a sewing line, and the outer layer 34 can be folded relative to the sewing line. In some embodiment, the hard sheet can be made of a corrugated board or a PE board. In other embodiments, the hard sheet can also be made of foam, etc. The material for the hard sheet is not limited in the present disclosure.
[0063] Referring to FIG. 13, similar to the above-mentioned embodiment where the support component 30 includes three support members, one of two adjacent support members can be folded relative to another of the two adjacent support members, so that the angle formed between the two adjacent support members changes in magnitude. When the support component 30 needs to be switched to the use state, the fourth support member 304 is folded around the connection between the sixth end 3032 and the seventh end 3041, so that an angle is formed between the fourth support member 304 and the third support member 303, then, the third support member 303 is folded around the connection between the fourth end 3022 and the fifth end 3031, so that an angle is formed between the second support member 302 and the third support member 303, and then the second support member 302 is folded around the connection between the second end 3012 and the third end 3021, so that an angle is also formed between the first support member 301 and the second support member 302. In the present disclosure, the folding order of the four support members relative to one another is not limited to herein. For example, the fourth support member 304 may be folded around the connection between the sixth end 3032 and the seventh end 3041 first, so that an angle is formed between the fourth support member 304 and the third support member 303, and then the second support member 302 is folded relative to the first support member 301, and then the third support member 303 and the fourth support member 304 are folded relative to the second support member 302. Other folding orders are also possible for folding of the support component 30. After folding, referring to FIG. 14, the four support members may approximately form a triangular prism structure, and an acute angle is formed between the first support member 301 and the second support member 302. The surface of the fourth support member 304 completely abuts against the surface of the first support member 301.
[0064] Still referring to FIG. 14, the inner space of the triangular prism structure enclosed by the first support member 301, the second support member 302 and the third support member 303 is defined as a first space 300. It can be understood that the seventh end 3041 is located at the edge of the first space 300, and the portion of the fourth support member 304 other than the seventh end 3041 is located in the first space 300. In other words, the third support member 303 and the fourth support member 304 abut against and are between the first support member 301 and the second support member 302. The eighth end 3042 is located near the abutting side 32, that is, the eighth end 3042 is located near the connection between the second end 3012 and the third end 3021. The eighth end 3042 extends to the vicinity of the abutting side 32 and abuts against the corner formed by the first support member 301 and the second support member 302. In this case, the first support member 301 and the second support member 302 jointly provide a limiting effect on the eighth end 3042, thereby improving the effect of fixing the eighth end 3042, and further improving the stability of the triangular prism structure. In other embodiments, the fourth support member 304 is shorter in length and does not extend to the vicinity of the abutting side 32, and the eighth end 3042 and the second support member 302 can remain stationary relative to each other through friction. In other embodiments, an elastic member, such as a torsion spring, is provided between the third support member 303 and the fourth support member 304, so that the fourth support member 304 has a tendency to deflect and abut against the first support member 301. Since the third support member 303 is connected to the fourth support member 304, when the eighth end 3042 is in a stationary state and the fourth support member 304 remains stable, the third support member 303 can also remain stable and not fall over, thereby helping to maintain the stability of the triangular prism structure.
[0065] Still referring to FIG. 14, optionally, when the support component 30 forms a triangular prism structure and is in the use state, the second support member 302, the third support member 303 and the fourth support member 304 also approximately enclose a triangular prism structure, and the structural stability is relatively high. When the child climbs into the baby crib through the support component 30, the fourth support member 304 can provide support for the first support member 301, thereby reducing the deformation of the first support member 301. That is, the fourth support member 304 can be regarded as a reinforcement for the first support member 301, which is more beneficial for the guide portion 33 to maintain its shape, thereby making the child feel more comfortable when climbing.
[0066] Optionally, the support component 30 is detachably connected to one side edge of the mattress 20. In this way, when it is required to switch to the non-use state, the support component 30 can be directly removed from the mattress and placed at the bottom of the mattress 20. Exemplarily, the detachable connection between the support component 30 and the mattress 20 is achieved by a zipper. In other embodiments, the support component 30 and the mattress 20 can also be detachably connected to each other by a button or other structures.
[0067] Alternatively, in some embodiments, referring to FIG. 10, a storage pocket 42 is disposed on the bottom side of the mattress 20. When the support component 30 is in the non-use state, the support component 30 (not shown) can be accommodated in the storage pocket 42, which is applicable to the case where the support component 30 is fixedly connected or detachably connected to the mattress 20.
[0068] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 10 and 11, the baby crib further includes a fabric layer 40. The fabric layer 40 is arranged on the crib frame 10 and surrounds the space defined by the crib frame 10. The fabric layer 40 on each side is approximately rectangular, thereby forming an enclosed space above the mattress 20 that is approximately rectangular and has an open top side. Taking the fabric layer 40 shown in FIG. 10 as an example, a closing device is arranged on a side of the fabric layer 40. Exemplarily, the closing device is a zipper 41. The zipper 41 is approximately arched, and two ends of the zipper 41 are each located on the bottom side of the fabric layer 40. It can be understood that when the closing device is opened, that is, when the zipper 41 is unzipped, a portion of the fabric layer 40 within the area enclosed by the zipper 41 and the bottom edge of the fabric layer 40 will be in a drooping state under gravity. In this case, the area enclosed by the zipper 41 and the bottom edge of the fabric layer 40 forms an access opening, for the child to climb into or out of the enclosed space.
[0069] Furthermore, when the portion of the fabric layer 40 within the area enclosed by the zipper 41 and the bottom edge of the fabric layer 40 is in a drooping state under gravity, after the portion of the fabric layer 40 in the drooping state is rolled up and folded, most of the rolled up and folded fabric layer 40 can be placed in the storage pocket 42, which can improve space utilization and avoid the fabric layer 40 from drooping onto the support plane 100, thereby improving the overall aesthetics, preventing the fabric layer 40 from getting wet or contaminated with dust, and avoiding impeding the baby's climbing.
[0070] In some embodiments, the baby crib further includes a protective layer 50. Referring to FIGS. 11 and 12, specifically, the protective layer 50 is arranged around the crib frame 10. The protective layer 50 includes a first layer 51 located in the enclosed space, and a second layer 52 located outside the enclosed space. The first layer 51 is connected to the second layer 52. The first layer 51 is provided with a third zipper tooth 511, and the fabric layer 40 is provided with a fourth zipper tooth (not shown) on a side thereof facing the interior of the enclosed space. The third zipper tooth 511 is engaged with the fourth zipper tooth to form a zipper structure. The first layer 51 can be fixed on the fabric layer 40, that is, fixed inside the enclosed space. The side of the column 12 facing away from the enclosed space is provided with a first buckle body 121, and the second layer 52 is provided with a second buckle body 521. The first buckle body 121 and the second buckle body 521 can be buckled together and fixed, to fix the second layer 52 outside the enclosed space. In this way, the first layer 51 and the second layer 52 can stably cover the upper frame 14 and upper ends of the columns 12, which can prevent the gap between the upper ends of the column 12 and the upper frame 14 and the gap between the connecting rod groups of the upper frame 14 from causing harm to the child, for example, prevent fingers from being pinched in the above-mentioned gaps.
[0071] In some embodiments, the first layer 51 and the second layer 52 are integrally arranged. In other embodiments, the first layer 51 and the second layer 52 may also be connected by a connecting element/member such as a zipper, which is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the protective layer 50 is made of an elastic mesh fabric, or other fabric materials.
[0072] In addition, in a third embodiment of the present disclosure, the baby crib described in the present disclosure has another form of support component 30. Referring to FIGS. 15, 16 and 17, the support component 30 is approximately wedge-shaped. The support component 30 is provided with a first contact surface 38a and a second contact surface 38b. When the support component 30 is in the use state, the first contact surface 38a is in contact with the support plane 100, and the guide portion 33 is located on the second contact surface 38b, or the second contact surface 38b itself forms the guide portion 33. When the child climbs into the baby crib, the child climbs into the baby crib along the second contact surface 38b. The support component 30 is provided with a groove 39, specifically, the groove 39 is located on the connection side 31. Referring to FIGS. 16 and 17, exemplarily, the groove 39 is provided with a first wall surface 391 and a second wall surface 392. The first wall surface 391 intersects with the second wall surface 392, and a certain angle is formed between the first wall surface 391 and the second wall surface 392. The first wall surface 391 and the second wall surface 392 are approximately perpendicular to each other. When the support component 30 is in the use state, the first wall surface 391 is connected to a bottom surface 20c of the mattress 20, alternatively, the first wall surface 391 may also be connected to the bottom of the baby crib, so that the support component 30 is relatively fixed to the mattress 20, and the support component 30 is not easily displaced when the child climbs in or out of the baby crib through the support component 30. The second wall surface 392 abuts against a side surface 20b of the mattress 20, so that the connection side 31 is located at the junction of the second contact surface 38b and the second wall surface 392. Since the second wall surface 392 abuts against the side surface 20b of the mattress 20, the support component 30 is more stably connected to the mattress 20, and the support component 30 is not easily displaced in a climbing direction when the child climbs in or out of the baby crib, making the climbing more stable. In addition, the height of the second wall surface 392 corresponds to the thickness of the mattress 20, so that the connection side 31 can be flush with the junction of the side surface 20b and the top surface 20a of the mattress 20 as much as possible, that is, the upper side of the connection side 31 is flush with the top surface 20a, so as to reduce the height difference between the connection side 31 and the top surface 20a of the mattress 20, further improving the comfort of the child when climbing in or out of the baby crib. In some examples, the height of the second wall surface 392 may be equal to the thickness of the mattress 20. In the present disclosure, the second wall surface 392 and the side surface 20b of the mattress 20 can also be arranged to face each other, and do not abut against each other, and there is a gap between the second wall surface 392 and the mattress 20, which also does not affect the comfort of the baby when climbing in or out of the baby crib.
[0073] In some embodiments, still referring to FIGS. 17 and 18, the support component 30 is provided with a fifth connecting element 390, and the mattress 20 is provided with a sixth connecting element 23. When the support component 30 is in the use state, the fifth connecting element 390 is connected to the sixth connecting element 23 to improve the firmness of the connection between the support component 30 and the mattress 20. Specifically, the fifth connecting element 390 is in an elongated shape and is arranged on the first wall surface 391 in an extending direction of the groove 39; the sixth connecting element 23 is also in an elongated shape and is arranged at the bottom of the baby crib or at the edge of the bottom surface 20c of the mattress 20, parallel to the extending direction of the groove 39. It can be understood that when the support component 30 is in the use state, the fifth connecting element 390 is connected to the sixth connecting element 23, which improves the firmness of the connection between the support component 30 and the bottom of the baby crib or the mattress 20. In some embodiments, the fifth connecting element 390 and the sixth connecting element 23 are respectively one of the hook side and the loop side of Velcro. In some other embodiments, the fifth connecting element 390 and the sixth connecting element 23 may also be replaced by connecting members in other forms, such as magnets that attract each other.
[0074] In some other embodiments, the fifth connecting element 390 and the sixth connecting element 23 may also be respectively arranged on the second wall surface 392 and the side surface 20b of the mattress 20. In this case, when the support component 30 is in the use state, the fifth connecting element 390 and the sixth connecting element 23 may also be connected to each other, to enhance the firmness of the connection between the support component 30 and the mattress 20.
[0075] In an exemplary embodiment, referring to FIG. 18, when the support component 30 is in the non-use state, the support component 30 can be stored in the storage pocket 42 and is not visible in FIG. 18. The support component 30 is stored in the storage pocket 42 when in the non-use state, which can reduce the overall space occupied by the baby crib and improve portability. In addition, since the support component 30 has a fixed storage position, it can effectively prevent the support component 30 from being lost.
[0076] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features are described in the embodiments as described above. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, the combinations should be considered as falling within the scope of the present disclosure.
[0077] The above-described embodiments only illustrate several implementations of the present disclosure, and the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present disclosure. It is to be noted that, for those of ordinary skill in the art, various variants and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present disclosure, and all fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the patent protection of the present disclosure shall be defined by the appended claims.
