Problems solved by technology

This makes the operating mechanism unintuitive and it may be difficult for the user to raise or retract the crib
Furthermore, in some known cots, the retraction of the rods needs to be done in a specific order, otherwise the mechanism could jam or become damaged
Furthermore, the concealment of the retraction mechanism within the fabric may thus prevent the user from seeing whether the crib has been erected correctly
This can cause the cot to not fit properly and therefore shrink when in use

Embodiment Construction

[0040] figure 1 show figure 2 The frame 10 of the cot 12 is fully shown in FIG. The frame 10 supports a fabric cradle 14 as shown. For clarity, the remaining figures will show the frame 10 without the fabric cradle 14 .

[0041] turn to figure 1, it can be seen that the frame 10 comprises an upper peripheral frame 16 and a lower frame 18 supported on each side of the frame 10 by two leg support structures 20 . The upper peripheral frame 16 is comprised of two U-shaped frame portions 22 each having a first end 24 and a second end 26 . The first end is joined substantially at the first joint unit 28 and is pivotally mounted to the first joint unit 28 . The second end 26 is also pivotally mounted to the second joint unit 30 . The first and second contact units 28, 30 may be plastic mouldings, and are preferably identical.

[0042] The support leg structures 20 each include two support legs 32 , 34 each pivotably mounted to an associated joint unit 28 , 30 . Each support ...

Abstract

A foldable cot (10) includes an upper peripheral frame (16) and first and second supporting leg structures (20). The peripheral frame (16) comprises a first U-shaped frame portion (22) and a second U-shaped frame portion (22) wherein the first U-shaped frame portion and the second U-shaped frame portion each have first and second ends (24, 26). The first ends (24) substantially meet at a first junction (28) and the second ends (26) substantially meet at a second junction (30) to thereby define a substantially closed loop peripheral frame. The first and second U-shaped frames (20) are pivotable relative to the first and second junctions (28, 30) to adjust from an erected configuration to a folded configuration. The first supporting leg structure (20) supports the peripheral frame (16) at the first junction (28) and the second supporting leg structure (20) support the peripheral frame (16) at the second junction (30). Each of the first and second supporting leg structures (20) comprise two support legs (32, 34) which are pivotable relative to the associated junction (28, 30) to adjust from a configuration whereby the two support legs (32, 34) diverge in the downward direction at an included angle, to a collapsed configuration with the support legs arranged at a lesser included angle. The support legs (32, 34) are length adjustable. The length adjustment of the two support legs (32, 34) may be operable in unison in the collapsed configuration.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a portable children's bed. More particularly, the present invention relates to cribs that can be folded from an upright working configuration to a collapsed configuration, thereby allowing the crib to be stored and / or transported more conveniently. Background technique [0002] It is well known that portable cots generally have four vertical posts defining the four corner posts of the cot. Extending between the vertical columns are upper and lower bars. Typically, these bars are collapsible or collapsible to allow the four corner posts of the crib to be moved closer together into a collapsed configuration. However, these bars are usually covered with fabric that forms the cradle or defines the shape of the crib. Therefore, the mechanism enabling the retraction of the rod is usually hidden from the operator. This makes the operating mechanism unintuitive, so that raising or retracting the crib may be difficult for the user. ...
