Abstract: A play yard having a collapsible top assembly and a collapsible bottom assembly, each assembly connected to at least three spaced vertical posts. The bottom assembly includes a collapsible subassembly. Pairs of post connecting members pivotally connect each vertical post to the subassembly forming truss segments. The truss segments and subassembly form a truss. Stabilizer feet are connected to the subassembly. The truss vertical posts and stabilizer feet serve to support and stabilize the play yard when it is in an erected position.

Abstract: An open top swing which includes a frame and mounting housings. A swing assembly depends from the pivot pins and includes a pair of spaced legs to which a swing is releasably attached for moving the swing closer to or away from the pivot pins to permit a change in the swing speed and the distance of the arcuate path that the swing will travel.

Abstract: An extender unit for an infant walker in which the unit is adapted to extend laterally outwardly away from the walker base. The unit is formed of a plurality of extender segments which can be releasably locked to each other and to the walker base by wheel inserts having one-way locks. Wheel assemblies are inserted into the wheel posts on the extender unit. The extender segments, wheel posts, and wheel assemblies can be shipped separate from the infant walker and assembled to the walker at a use site. The walker device cannot be used by an infant without the extender unit because all wheel assemblies are mounted in the extender unit.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for coupling an infant carrier to a stroller in which the carrier has extensions projecting outward from the carrier side walls and the stroller has guide housings with an open face recess adapted to receive the extensions. An actuation bar located contiguous to the stroller handle bar serves to release biased latch members which lock the carrier extension to the stroller guide housings.

Abstract: A child car seat having at least one adjustment assembly for adjusting a child seat shield relative to the seat. The assembly includes a biased finger bar attached to a slide member which is slidably mounted on a mounted member pivotally attached to the seat shell. A shield leg is pivotally attached to the mounting member. The finger bar can be actuated to cause a lock key either to engage or disengage from a plurality of openings located in an adjuster plate pivotally mounted to the seat shell.

Abstract: A multi-sided play yard having a collapsible top assembly and a collapsible bottom assembly, each assembly connected to at least three spaced vertical posts. The bottom assembly includes a collapsible assembly with collapsible legs. The collapsible legs each include leg portions pivotally connected to a respective vertical post and to a multiple pivot joint member. Stabilizer feet are pivotally connected to each collapsible leg by a multiple pivot joint member. The vertical posts, leg members, and stabilizer feet serve to support and stabilize the play yard when it is in an erected position.

Abstract: A bouncer device having a base frame and infant seat frame pivotally connected to each other and held in an erected position by a pivot arm assembly which includes a movable locking sleeve which precludes a pivot arm assembly from collapsing.

Abstract: A bassinet for a play yard having a bottom wall, a continuous upstanding side wall and one or more separating panels to divide the bassinet into discrete stand-alone compartments. A removable cover may be utilized with one or more compartments.

Abstract: A bassinet for an infant having a foldable floor and flexible side walls that are suspended above a playard floor with extruded plastic hooks engaged to the playard for a safe and secure connection. The hooks are shaped to easily be installed and removed for quick change over from bassinet to playard and back again. The bassinet is easily installed and removed by one person and, due to its construction, may be folded with the playard for convenient storage.

Abstract: A system for coupling an infant carrier to a second support device in which the infant carrier has coupling members extending from the side of the carrier, the coupling members forming mounting pockets. The support device, such as an infant car seat base or stroller, employs coupling posts adapted to be received within the carrier mounting pocket.
