Folding Playpen and Dual Sleeper

摘要

A folding playpen has a frame assembly including a plurality of parallel uprights arranged in a geometric configuration and a plurality of upper rails pivotally affixed to and extending between a top portion of adjacent ones of the uprights. A co-planar grid of braces extends between said the uprights and includes a central support block at a center of geometrically configured uprights. The braces pivotally attached to the central support block and to a respective one of the uprights. A flexible covering extends about a periphery of the frame assembly and a pad is supported by the co-planar grid. The frame assembly is selectively collapsible from a usable configuration to a storage configuration by vertically translating the central support block from a lower position to a position proximate to a top of the uprights.

主权项

1. A folding playpen comprising:
a frame assembly in an extended configuration comprising
a plurality of parallel uprights being spaced apart from one another and arranged in a rectilinear configuration, at least some of said uprights being interconnected to one another so as to form at least a pair of opposite sides of said frame assembly, anda co-planar grid extending between and interconnecting said pair of opposite sides of said frame assembly proximate to bottom portions thereof;wherein said frame assembly is selectively collapsible from said extended configuration to a storage configuration; a flexible covering extending about a periphery, along and between and in contact with said opposite sides, of said frame assembly so as to form a plurality of side walls of said flexible covering in a rectilinear configuration defining an interior of said playpen having an open bottom and an open top, said flexible covering being selectively removable from said frame assembly; a pad, separate from said flexible covering, being in contact with and supported by said co-planar grid proximate to said bottom portions of said frame assembly so as to transform said open bottom of said interior of said playpen to a closed bottom of said interior of said playpen, said pad being selectively removable from said co-planar grid to enable collapsing said frame assembly from said extended configuration to said storage configuration; and a central divider selectively extendable in a vertical orientation within said interior of said playpen between a pair of opposing ones of said side walls of said flexible covering and substantially from proximate to said open top to proximate to said closed bottom of said interior of said playpen so as to divide said interior of said playpen into at least a pair of interior portions located adjacent to one another but at opposite sides of said central divider, each said interior portion having a corresponding portion of said open top and a corresponding portion of said closed bottom.
