FIG. 1 illustrates only thebottom board 51 andframework 70 of the infant enclosure 20 (a bassinet in this illustrative embodiment) in order to better understand the features of the present invention. Thebottom board 51 is a flat, sturdy board made of a suitable material for supporting an infant, such as plastic, wood or a composition board, for example. Theframe 70 is comprised ofsupports 72 mounted uponboard 51 and supporting loop-like rail 71 above theboard 51. The swingably mounted curved struts support a hood (not shown). Therail 71 supports a fabric that surrounds theboard 51. As shown inFIGS. 2 through 10 , the underside of the board is provided with a pair of spaced, substantially parallel rockingmembers board 51 by suitable fastening means, such as rivets or bolts, not shown for purposes of simplicity. Since the rockingmembers 52 are substantially identical in both design and function, only one of them will be described in detail. Making reference toFIG. 3 , rockingmember 52 has anupper surface 52 a which is substantially flat and abottom surface 52 b which is arcuate at the intermediate portion between itsend portions bottom surface 52 a. This parallel arrangement is preferred but not required to obtain the advantages of the invention.Arcuate surface 52 b is configured to engage a support surface, such as a floor, and permit rocking when theanti-rocking assemblies 53 are collapsed into the rocking member as will now be described. - Each
end member 52 defines a hollow recess for respectively receiving a pivotally mountedanti-rocking assembly 53.Anti-rocking assembly 53 is comprised of a hollow rectangular shapedhousing 53 a having an open side. Apushbutton 53 d having a substantially U-shaped cross section is slideably mounted within the opening ofhousing 53 a. A spring (not shown) has one end thereof secured within the hollow interior ofpush button 53 d and the opposite end thereof pressing against the interior surface ofhousing 53 a whenpushbutton 53 d is mounted therein. Preferably, the spring is normally under compression. Pushbutton 53 d has a pair of circular-shaped projections 53 e-53 f extending outwardly fromside 53 d-1 and a similar pair of projections 53 g-53 h extending outwardly fromside 53 d-2.Projections elongated slots 53 a-1 and 53 a-2 provided in a sidewall ofhousing 53 a and a similar pair ofslots 53 a-1 and 53 a-2 in another sidewall ofhousing 53 a. The projections inpushbutton 53 d cooperate with theslots 53 a-1 and 53 a-2 to limit the range of movement ofpushbutton 53 d. A pin P or other suitable fastener extends through an opening (not shown) in the rear wall ofhousing 53 a as well as extending through theopenings 52 e-52 f provided in the sidewalls forming therecess 52 d to pivotally mount the anti-rocking assembly within the rockingmember 52. - The operation of the
anti-rocking assembly 53 is as follows: - With the anti-rocking assembly in the erect position shown in
FIGS. 3, 6 , 7, and 9 the aforementioned coil spring urgespush button 53 d to extend outwardly and away from thehousing 53 a and intonotch 52 g of rockingmember 52 to prevent rocking. The free end surfaces S of theanti-rocking assemblies 53 are spaced a distance D (FIGS. 6 and 9 ) from the underside ofsupport board 51 which is substantially equal to the distance of the center point Cp ofarcuate surface 52 b from the underside ofboard 51 so that when the anti-rocking members are in the position shown inFIG. 3 theboard 51 is prevented from rocking by making the line L extending between the surfaces S substantially tangential to the center point Cp ofarcuate surface 52 b. Theboard 51 is thus prevented from rocking while the rocking member nevertheless provides support at the center point Cp, together with the anti-rocking assemblies, which serve as support legs. - By pressing the
button 53 d inwardly by a distance sufficient to clear thenotch 52 g, the anti-rocking assemblies may be pivoted within therecess 52 d, as shown inFIG. 9 , thereby enabling thesupport board 51 to be rocked. - If desired, a “half-rocking” condition may be achieved by folding the
assemblies 53 on only one side. - The anti-rocking assemblies are moved from the collapsed position to the extended position by applying a downward force (such as finger pressure) in the region R as shown in
FIG. 7 . - An alternative anti-rocking assembly is shown in
FIG. 10 wherein a toggleswitch locking device 100, similar to that employed for raising and lowering the casters and shown in detail in co-pending application Ser. No. 10/103,580, may be employed to raise and lower the anti-rocking assemblies. - Rocking
members member 52 shown inFIG. 4 is provided with a pair of mounting brackets B1 and B2 integrally joined thereto. The brackets are substantially U-shaped and are each comprised of arms A1 and A2 joined to one another by a center portion C. Arms A1 are integrally joined to the rockingmember 52. Making reference toFIG. 5 , the inner surfaces of arms A1 and A2 are provided with projections which extend toward one another and are defined by two arcuate concave surfaces S1, S2 which meet at a mid-point P1. Sides A2 have similar concave surfaces S3 and S4 which meet at a mid-point P2. - Brackets B1 and B2, for example, are mounted upon
cross-piece 37 by placing the open ends of the U-shaped brackets abovecross piece 37 as shown inFIG. 5 . As theboard 51 is pressed downwardly, arm A2, which is flexible, moves away from arm A1 as thecross rail 37 moves between the points P1 and P2. When thecross piece 37 clears points P1 and P2, arm A2 snaps inwardly, securing the brackets B1 and B2 to the cross rail. Preferably, the brackets of one of the rocker members are inserted onto one of the cross rails and thereafter the second member is mounted in a similar fashion, using the mounted set as a pivot about which theboard 51 is swung. The length of the rocking members 52-53 is slightly less than the distance between the inner surfaces of thebrackets - As an alternative to the mounting brackets described hereinabove, one set of the mounting brackets may be aligned so that their arms extend horizontally and so that the center piece C is integrally joined to the rocker member. The rocker member having these horizontally oriented arms is then mounted first by tilting the
support board 52 by an amount sufficient to align the open ends of the brackets having the horizontally aligned arms with the cross rail, such ascross rail 37. When these brackets are snapped into place, the support board may then be swung downwardly using the connected end as a pivot to lock the vertically aligned arms of the remaining rocker member with the remainingcross rail 38. - As a further alternative, a pair of spaced mounting brackets B1′ and B2′ may be pivotally mounted to one of the rocker members. The brackets in the remaining rocker member, which may be similar to the brackets described hereinabove, are integrally joined to the rocker arm and have either horizontally or vertically extending sidewalls. These brackets are mounted first to one of the cross rails and the support board is then swung downwardly using the mounting cross rail of pivot, whereupon the pivotally mounted brackets swing to a vertical position to lock the bassinet to the support frame.

board 51 is further provided with two pairs of mounting brackets B1 and B2 having bifurcated arms which extend in a direction substantially parallel to the plane ofboard 51 and are configured in a manner similar to those shown inFIG. 5 for snap-fittingly locking thebassinet 50 tocross-piece 38. - A
bracket 64 is provided with anelongated recess 64 a having a curved bottom which conforms to the shape oftubular member 37. A lockingmember 65 is pivotally mounted tobracket 64 by a suitable pivot pin and is movable between a locking position shown inFIGS. 11 and 12 and an open position which, though not shown, it should be understood that lockingarm 65 is rotated either clockwise or counterclockwise through a one-quarter turn so as to be displaced from theelongated groove 64 a. - The
bassinet 50 is mounted in a manner similar to that described hereinabove, namely the brackets B1 and B2 are aligned withcross-piece 38 and snap-fitted thereto. The bassinet is then swung down to a position where it receivescross rail 37 withingroove 64 a. The lockingarm 65 is then rotated from the open position through a quarter turn to cooperate withrecess 64 a to embracetubular member 37. - When the
bassinet 50 ofFIG. 11 is removed from thesupport frame 20 and the rocking members, 60, 62 are moved to the upright position shown inFIG. 11 , the bassinet may be rocked. - When it is desired to use the bassinet without the rocking feature, the
rocker members FIG. 12 whereupon the bassinet is supported by brackets B1 and B2 and lockingbracket 64. The length of lockingbracket 64 may be increased, if desired, in order to increase the stability of the bassinet when supported by the brackets B1, B2 and 64. Alternatively a pair of legs L1 and L2 may be fixably mounted to the underside ofboard 51 to further enhance the stability of the bassinet when it is separated from thesupport frame 20 and is being used with the rocking members folded down. - It should be understood that the infant receiving portion may take any desired form so long it has a bottom or support board, such as a
