INFANT CALMING/SLEEP-AID AND SIDS PREVENTION DEVICE WITH DRIVE SYSTEM

摘要

An infant calming/sleep-aid/SIDS detection device is provided that includes a 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 moving platform is above a carrier and in contact with at least one bearing between the carrier and the moving platform, wherein the moving platform is rotatable in a plane substantially parallel to a major plane of the carrier in an oscillatory manner relative to the carrier and about an axis of rotation. A controllable motor controls movement of the moving platform about the center of rotation of the at least one bearing relative to the carrier, the motor including an oscillating post that engages with a guide track on the moving platform to cause oscillatory movement of the moving platform.
