OPEN TOP INFANT SWING

摘要

The present invention is an electrically driven open top infant swing comprising a crossbar that does not extend directly over the top of the infant swing. Thu s, as opposed to other prior art swing designs utilizing crossbars, the crossbar of the present invention provides excellent stability and rigidity to the swing described and claimed herein while still allowing relatively easy access to an infant seated in the swing seat. Additionally, the present invention provides an infant swing that is coupled to an electric drive motor by a "moving pivot" thereby allowing the swing to pivot independently of the drive motor and thus avoidi ng undue strain on the swing motor and gearing.
